SAP Note 649814 - Updating MaxDB/liveCache client software

Component : MaxDB - liveCache

Solution : https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/649814 (SAP Service marketplace login required)

Summary :
This SAP Note details the process for importing new MaxDB/liveCache client packages from the Software Distribution Center (SWDC) to the Web Application Server. As of SAP Release 7.0, the precompiler runtime in these packages has been replaced by the SQLDBC interface. For setups using MaxDB or liveCache versions ranging from 7.3.00 Build 33 to 7.8, the import protocol varies based on whether it's integrated into the central system or a client-server environment. The note provides detailed steps for logging on to SWDC, downloading the right software packages, and the installation process using tools like SDBINST and SDBSETUP. It emphasizes updating the client software concurrently with the server software post-upgrade to ensure compatibility and performance stability.
