Summary :
The SAP Note concerns the essential upgrade of Linux operating systems to support the 720_EXT kernel used in newer SAP products like ERP 6.0 EhP 6, CRM 7.0 EhP 2, and SRM 7.0 EhP 2. SAP products based on NetWeaver 7.0 EhP 3 require RHEL 6.x or SLES 11 SP1 as a minimum for running the aforementioned kernel, specifically for their 64-bit versions. The note details interim support using the 720 kernel instead of 720_EXT for customers unable to upgrade immediately, permitting continued operation on RHEL 5.x and SLES 10 until upgrades are feasible. This temporary allowance was set to expire by July 31, 2013, urging users to adopt compliant OS versions. Additionally, the note provides guidelines for manual installation procedures where necessary and emphasizes the urgency of transitioning to supported Linux versions to ensure continued SAP support and product functionality.
