Summary :
Following the upgrade from EHP 7.20 to a higher version, the Software Component (SC) SAP_XI3RDPARTY does not show version updates. This SC comprises wrapper SDAs for external driver implementations such as JMS and database drivers. To prevent overwriting customer-deployed third-party drivers, these Development Components are specially managed by JSPM to remain at their original versions. JSPM excludes them from its deployable SC list and avoids deployment, even in "force mode." For deployment needs outside these constraints, use NetWeaver Developer Studio or telnet to directly access the J2EE server node. This maintenance strategy is deliberate and standard.

Key words :
sc sap_xi3rdparty remains unchanged, netweaver developer studio, j2ee server node, data base drivers, 3rd-party drivers, higher enhancement package, deployable software components, enhancement package, external drivers, development components
