SAP Note 1401712 - JSPM/SAPJup/SAPehpi/SUM cannot detect all cluster instances

Summary :
SAP update/upgrade tools such as JSPM, SAPJup, SAPehpi, and SUM encounter errors if the SAP Start Services are not operational for the central or SCS instances. It is crucial to ensure these services are active across all system instances for successful tool operations. Additionally, tool errors might occur if the system kernel lacks necessary support; this mostly concerns the information fetching for instance management via SAPCONTROL web service API. The documentation emphasizes the importance of running Start Services and maintaining a compatible kernel version to prevent potential disruptions in system upgrades and updates. Refer to SAP Notes for detailed guidance on managing these issues.
