Use

To prepare and perform the update of your SAP system, you need some additional information that is not included in this document. This information is in a range of SAP Notes in SAP Support Portal (http://support.sap.com/notes), some of which you have to read before you start with the preparations. Besides the central Software Update Manager Note, there are separate SAP Notes for the database-specific sections. When you actually perform the update, you may need information from some additional SAP Notes. These SAP Notes are named at the appropriate places in this document.

SAP Notes for Preparing the Update

Request the following SAP Notes from SAP Support Portal before you start the update procedure:

• Central Software Update Manager Note

• SAP Note for your database

Since these SAP Notes are updated regularly, make sure that you always use the newest version.

Other SAP Notes

In addition to the SAP Notes that you need for preparing the update, this document also refers you to other SAP Notes that contain additional information. These SAP Notes are listed in the List of Referenced SAP Notes.
