Key updates include support for SAP NetWeaver 7.0 SR3 and higher, various system installation and upgrade guidelines, and the need for revising DB2 parameters as per SAP Note 1692571 for optimal performance. The document also covers the usage of DB2 10.1 features like the DB2 pureScale, enhanced automatic table maintenance, and automatic space reclamation for indexes.
