SAP kernel

Hi friends,
Our systems Ecc6.0 HPux/oracle 10g, we have have upgraded the kernel to patch 185, changed th permission for ora<sid> and icmbnd and saposcol .
After the updgrade of kernel not able to start the database and When i run R3trans -d
i get the below error
2EETW169 no connect possible: "maybe someone set invalid values for DIR_LIBRARY ('/usr/sap/<SID>/SYS/exe/run') or dbms_type ('ORA')
Checked the enviroment vaialble andalso checked the SAPnote 403004 and 400241
but still the same issue
can some one help to resolve the same.
thanks

Hi,
Please check your system's DIR_LIBRARY and dbms_type environment variables.
It is clearly stating in the error message that
no connect possible: "maybe someone set invalid values for DIR_LIBRARY ('/usr/sap/<SID>/SYS/exe/run') or dbms_type ('ORA')
When initiating an SAP system, the database-dependent database library is loaded before the DBSL is called up for the first time. The system searches for the library in the directory indicated by the environment variable DIR_LIBRARY (for example,. /usr/sap/<SAPSID>/SYS/exe/run). The environment variable dbms_type contains the name of the required database management system. When the system is initiated, an attempt is made to load the library belonging to the required database management system from the directory indicated by the environment variable DIR_LIBRARY.
If you want more assistance then please let me know.
Thanks,
Sudip.

Help needed applying OSS note 981295 in SAP ECC 5.0 with SAP Kernel 640_REL

Hi Experts,
Our functional team is trying to implement a kind of workflow through a notification via SAP Inbox (transaction code SBWP) after the release of a Purchase Order (Transaction code ME29), this is every time when a purchase order is released through transaction code ME29, a notification will be sent to the SAP Inbox (transaction code SBWP). So according to this they told me to implement OSS note 981295, but using transaction SNOTE I get the message that this note can't be implemented in my system this because my SAP Kernel version is the release 6.40 and the needed SAP Kernel for this note is from version 7.00 to version 7.10. So what do you recommend please in this case in order to implement the required functionality on our SAP ECC 5.0 System?
Best Regards,
Erik Espinosa

Note clearly states
This note is only relevant if the following Support Package is installed in the system:
NW04s: Support Package SAPKB70008
Meaning is not relevat to your case. You need to keep looking... if you open an OSS message people from SAP might put you in the right direction.

Missing IDES ECC5 installation disk for SAP Kernel - MaxDB Version

Hi,
Our HQ sent us installation disks for IDES ECC5. We copied them all onto our server and started installation. The system is now informing us that it can't find the SAP kernel information.
I can only assume that we're missing one of the installation disks.
We're desperate to get this installed and it will take another week for our HQ to send through another disk. Does anyone know whether we can download this from somewhere? We have had a look on SAP marketplace but you only seem to be able to download the kernel for Oracle, MSSQL and DB2....no MaxDB.
Additionally, if there is somewhere in Asia we can download this, then that would be better as we are having internet problems when connecting to Europe and the US.
Thanks in advance!
Tristan

Hello Tristan,
This is not the correct forum to post your question.
You was not asked about the database(MAXDB) kernel software.
You need SAP kernel software
-> Review the installation guides at service.sap.com/instguides ->
mySAP Business Suite Applications -> mySAP ERP -> mySAP ERP 2004
-> SAP ECC 5.0 ->
Installation Guides of SAP ECC 5.0 SR1
-> < Please see the steps 'How to Proceed' > ->
-> MySQL MaxDB
< Part I: Planning and Preparation
Part II: Installation and Post-Installation >
-> select the documents for the OS of your server.
And the document from the 'Part I: Planning and Preparation' you will get information that you need the SAP kernel CD & & what is the minimum required version & the reference to the location at the SAP Marketplace to download it, if you don't have the required SAP kernel CD.
< You could download the CD from service.sap.com/installations ->
Entry by applicataion group ->
Installations and Upgrades -> SAP NetWeaver -> SAP NETWEAVER->
SAP NETWEAVER 04 ->
Installation and Upgrade ->
< OS> -> < database > -> CD 'SAP Kernel ... <database><OS>.
SAP kernel software is database, platform, Unicode specific. >
In the 'Part II: Installation and Post-Installation' document you will find the the list of the required DVDs for the SAP system-ABAP installation.
-> Are you running the installation of the the 'Central Instance', 'Dialog Instance' or 'Database instance' ?
For the 'Database instance' Installation you need:
SAP Installation Master DVD
SAP Kernel DVD
RDBMS DVD
SAP Export DVD
-> What CD/DVD do you have for the installation?
< You could download the CDs from service.sap.com/installations ->
Entry by applicataion group ->
Installations and Upgrades -> Entry by Application Group
-> SAP Application Components -> SAP ERP-> SAP ERP 2004 -> Installation and Upgrade -> <OS> ->SAP DB >
You could also order the CD, if you have problems with download from the SAP Marketplace.
Thank you and best regards, Natalia Khlopina
PS: SAP Note 19466 will give you information about download of SAP Kernel Patches.

SAP Kernel Version in SAP Component

Hi to everyone
I have a simple question.
When you have an Early Watch Alert report. There is a column about "SAP Components". There is "PI_BASIS", SAP_BASIS, SRM_PLUS.
SAP_ABA, SAP_AP, SRM_SERVER, ST-A/PI, ST-PI.
Which component is referred to SAP Kernel?
Is SAP_BASIS, or which one?
Regards

Hi,
Kernel and components are seperate entities.
SAP kernel is a set of executables which act as interface between the SAP system, operating system and the corresponding database. Overview of SAP Kernel : http://www.easymarketplace.de/sap-programs.php
SAP Components or referred to as SAP Packages are SAP_BASIS, SAP_ABA etc. These contain objects depending on the type of package which can delivered to the customer. The objects can provide business logic and technology details as well.
Objects are usually programs, reports, function modules, classes etc or tables, structures, data elements etc.

SAP Kernel release - Difference between SM51 and System- Status ?

Dear SDN colleagues,
I am a ABAP developer, and have been told by our Basis department that our SAP Kernel is 640.
When I check the following, I get different values:
1) System -> Status : SAP_BASIS is 620
2) Transaction SM51 -> Release Notes: I see SAP R/3 Kernel 640_REL
Can anyone explain why there is a difference in these informations? (and which is the correct one !)
Thanks in advance.
Best regards,
Jodie

Hello Jodie,
First of all there is nothing to be "implemented" as per the note.
Additionally the poor basis guy is saying the correct thing. Check this part:
Solution
The changes are activated with the following patch levels:
4.6D : 1495
6.20 : 764
The paging administration was enhanced.
The error is no longer passed on to other sessions and the trace outputs to determine the error cause have been improved.
The patch levels mentioned are kernel patch levels and have nothing to do with your SAP_BASIS release.Since your kernel is 640 this note is no longer applicable. In my opinion you need to dig for some other note.
Regards.
Ruchit.

SAP Kernel on Drive D: in dual boot Scenario.

Hello,
I am trying to install SAP 4.7 IDES on my system. My system is Intel Core 2 Duo, 4GB RAM and 320GB HDD. This is a dual boot system with Windows 7 on drive C: and Windows Server 2003 (x86/SP2/Enterprise Edition) on drive D:. Drive D: has a partition of 50GB for the OS and SAP files. Further I have another partition E: which has a 100GB partition for Oracle. I want to install SAP on the Windows Server 2003 platform, I would like to know if the SAP Kernel can be installed on drive D: (where windows is located). Any help in this matter would be appriciated. Thanks in advance.
Regars,
Vinay

Hi,
I want to install SAP on the Windows Server 2003 platform,
I would like to know if the SAP Kernel can be installed on drive D: (where windows is located)
Against recommendation as mentioned in official Installation Guide, In your personal system, only for testing/training purpose, you can point SAP Kernel path to any free location which is having around 7GB to 10GB free space in your system.
Rest of the information you will find in its concerned Installation Guide and the possible things you can manage within your system if its accommodated.

Can SAP Kernel 640 (linked OCI_9.2) run Ora DB 9.2 via instant client 10g ?

Hello,
One of our old system runs a SAP Kernel 640 OCI_920.
DB server runs Oracle 9.2
We would like to backup it with RMAN to take advantage of backup as saveset with disk_copy_cmd = rman_set
So according to OSS 1101530, we should run at least BrTools 7.00 patch 30 or BRTools 7.10 patch 5.
OSS 849483 and 1060539 state that those Br*Tools can be run with a database server Oracle 9.2 if an Oracle instant client 10g is installed on the Database server.
I wonder if it is possible without upgrading the DB Server to oracle 10g
1) Can SAP Kernel 640 (linked OCI_9.2) run Ora DB 9.2 via instant client 10g ?
2) Or should we go to an SAP Kernel 640_EX2 ?
3) If so, shouldn't Oracle server be upgraded to 10g beforehand ?
I will try to get some clue in the product availibility matrix, but if you already have some piece of information about it, please just shoot !
Thx in advance for you time

"You are not authorized to download selected object" when trying to download SAP Kernel 7.21 EXT PL 500 with DL

Hello everyone,
Yesterday (April 30, 2015) SAP released the new patch 500 for SAP KERNEL 7.21 EXT 64-bit.
I am using Download Manager and I was able to download the Kernel Part II (DB-Dependent) .SAR file and other files as you can see in the screenshot, but for the Kernel Part I and disp+work files I get the error: "You are not authorized to download selected object".
On the other hand, I am able to download older versions of the Kernel Part I (SAPEXE_XXX.SAR).
Is this a technical problem on SAP side (SMP)? Did anyone encounter the same issue and found a solution?
Thanks.
BR,
Michel

Hello Michel,
Kernel Patch 500 is yet to release, to the customer.
Have a look at the below blog.
Surprise for Kernel version 7.21 patch level 500 !
Hope the above one helps.

I read the note 19466 but I don't know how to identify what is the latest kernel patch for my environment.
How can I detect this?

Hello,
Please go to service Marketplace

Then you need to:

uncar them in a temp folder
then download disp+work and TP packages ( latest ones ) and uncar them
in the same folder
You will see the for TP and disp+work the patch levels are higher than

SAP kernel vs btools vs oracle version

we have some questions,
1. sap ecc ehp4 ready sr1 version, is use kernel 7.01 version, can i upgrade to 7.2 version?
2. can upgrade brtools version from 7.00 to 7.2 ?
3. sap ecc ehp4 ready sr1 version, can use oracle 11.2 version on aix, windows, hp-ux?
thank you everyboy help?

> i replace brtools 7.2 version on windows, get error "application has failed to start because the application configuration is incorrect......."
Check your windows event log. Most likely you'll see there an error like the one described in
Note 1402510 - Resolving SideBySide Assembly Errors
and hence you need to fix the ATL library by applying the Windows fix:
Note 1375494 - SAP system does not start after applying SAP kernel patch

Version of sap kernel

Hello
How can i see on our system what we use sap kernel 32-bit or 64-bit?
regards,
Denis

Hi,
Very simple.
Go to the path: c:\usr\sap\<SID>\SYS\exe\uc\NT<XXXX>.
The naming convention itself will tell you as to if the system is 64 bit or 32 bit. If I386 then 32, if it ends with 64 then 64 bit.
Also this location would be having two files SAPEXE and SAPEXEDB file see the exact number of it and then login to service market place and there match these numbers at the required location to find it out.
Using command prompt go to the same location and type disp+work you will see a few informations which will have the required details about the kernel.
regards and reward with good points.

Components involved on SAP KERNELL

Hi,
I want to update the sap kernell. I always update with sapexe, and sapexedb(independent and dependent database), but I need to try to update the kernell, but the last release delivered it´s the 701_117.
If I want to update I need to try with the package dw+disp package?
SAP Note 19466 - Downloading SAP kernel patches
More thanks

Hello,
Components of SAPEXE and SAPEXEDB are tested together.
You can update a kernel component if it's newer than the component of SAPEXE or SAPEXEDB
but there may be some unknown side effects.
Component release date is no longer relevant in itself. Sometimes a newer dated SAPEXE
or SAPEXEDB can contain an older component than a single component with an older release date.
If you want to find out which version is newer you should check the file versions.

Laszlo

Mixed SAP kernel versions on application servers

Hello.
I'm looking for a Note asserting that mixed versions of the sap kernel on application servers of a single installation are not supported.
E.g. the Central Instance has kernel Version 185 and application server 221 ....
Can anybody help me finding an official source?
Thanks a lot.
Dino

Hi,
What is the purpose of a confirmation for such an obvious fact ?
Do you want an official confirmation that you can't run unix executables on a windows server ?
PS : Don't try to dry your cat in the microwave oven ! There is no official OSS note about it !
