Sap Upgrade Project
- All SAP Solution Manager 7.1 systems are technically outdated and cannot communicate with the updated SAP support backbone. Hence, an upgrade to SAP Solution Manager 7.2 SP stack 7 or 8 is required.
- If you are on SAP Solution Manager 7.2 SP stack 6 or lower then plan to update SAP Solution Manager 7.2 to SP stack 7 or 8 as soon as possible. No further action is required.
- You are already well prepared if you plan to go to SAP Solution Manager 7.2 SP stack 7 before Jan 2020. SAP plans to enable SP stack 7 with SAP Notes to leverage increased security
- SAP will provide more information on the planned SAP support backbone update in Q2 2018.
