Conversion to SAP S/4HANA using SUM: ABAP Systems on UNIX and Linux

Switch of SAP Programs During the Update

In the KX_SWITCH phase, the SAP programs in directory /usr/sap/<SID>/SYS/exe/run are switched when the kernel switch takes place.

Do not start the SAP system during this period; otherwise, the Software Update Manager cannot overwrite the old files.
