Summary :
This SAP Note addresses issues with multispanning archives created using RAR, which are split into multiple files (.exe and .rar) to manage large data volumes. For resolution, all related archive files must be downloaded to a single directory without changing file names. On Windows, extraction is initiated by executing the .exe file. On UNIX-based systems (Linux, Solaris, etc.), the latest Download Manager is necessary, and files must be extracted with root access using the 'unrar' command. This methodological approach ensures proper handling and extraction of multispanning archives across different platforms.
