You want to import a new 'DBADASLIB', or a new 'DBSDBSLIB' as of SAP Version 7.0.
The dbadaslib.dll or dbsdbslib library release must correspond to the SAP kernel release. Therefore, also refer to Note 19466.
The patches for new SAP kernels (if they are not connected to the MaxDB) do not contain a dbadaslib.dll or dbsdbslib.dll library. For this reason, the dbadaslib.dll or dbsdbslib library must be explicitly replaced in the case of ND products (such as APO) that use a database other than the MaxDB.
Note:
Not every new liveCache patch requires a new DBADASLIB or DBSDBSLIB. If you need to install a DBADASLIB or DBSDBSLIB, the system will explicilty prompt you to do so.
However, if you import a new DBADASLIB or DBSDBSLIB, you should always check whether a newer precompiler version or SQLDBC version is also available on SAP Service Marketplace. If so, you should then import this version in accordance with Note 649814.
The latest DBADASLIB or DBSDBSLIB is available on the Software Distribution Center (SWDC).
The library is available in the CAR package LIB_DBSL.CAR at:
http://service.sap.com/patches
-> SAP Support Packages and Patches
-> Entry by Application Group
-> Additional Components
-> SAP Kernel
-> SAP KERNEL
-> SAP KERNEL
->
-> SAP DB
-> LIB_DBSL_.CAR
or
-> SAP Support Packages and Patches
-> Entry by Application Group
-> Additional Components
-> SAP KERNEL
-> SAP KERNEL
-> SAP KERNEL
->
-> MaxDB
-> LIB_DBSL_.CAR
The libraries for an APO system are under the above paths, depending on the liveCache version used.
Note: = 46B: Since the kernel is downward-compatible,
changes are only made in Releases 46B, 46C and 46D.
If you are using an R/3 kernel lower than 46B,
also install the corresponding 46B, 46C
or 46D R/3 kernel.
Transport the CAR package into your directory
:\usr\sap\\SYS\exe\run or /usr/sap//SYS/exe/run
and start the following commands:
NT: ren dbadaslib.dll dbadaslib.dll.old
UNIX: mv dbadaslib.o dbadaslib.o.old
car -xvf LIB_DBSL.CAR
The new library is only used after you restart the R/3 system, and possibly only after you restart your operating system if you are using WINDOWS-NT.
