o SP Equivalence Levels

- Be aware that the SAP Solution Manager - Maintenance Optimizercalculates the correct Support Packages for you.

- The SP equivalence levels for EhP6 Support Package Stack (SPS)04 are listed below. This means that the correction levels areequivalent and also determines your upgrade path to anyEnhancement Package:

- EhP6 SPS06 -- EhP5 SPS09 -- EhP4 SPS12 -- EhP3 SPS11 -- EhP2SPS12 -- SAP ERP 6.0 SPS22

o SAP NetWeaver SP Stack Levels

In September 2011 SAP introduced the so called 'Minimum SP StackLevel' in order to simplify the maintenance process in biggersystem landscapes. Based on SAP's version interoperabilityparadigm, decoupled software updates in system landscapes can nowalso be offered for SP stack implementations. Details about versioninteroperability and the supported software update strategies aredescribed here:http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/SLGB/Version+Interoperability+Strategy

Based on the Landscape Pattern (HUB or SIDECAR) defined in SMSY forthe JAVA system, the Maintenance Optimizer will determine thecorresponding SAP NetWeaver SP Stack. Please refer also to SAP Note1620472.

You do not need to apply a new SP Stack on the technical instancedefined as HUB in case your JAVA instance is greater or equal thedefined Minimum SP Stack Level outlined below:

- SAP NetWeaver 7.0 SP Stack 18 (01/2009) - If you are runningyour JAVA instance on SAP NetWeaver 7.0
