Solution

Businesses running SAP…

… expect software logistics tool improvements on a

continuous basis, available for their currently used system
landscapes.

Deliver a compatible and up-to-date

software logistics tool in regular intervals.

A product independent delivery channel – the Software Logistics Toolset –

has been established

© 2011 SAP AG. All rights reserved. Internal 11

Basic Concept

The Software Logistics Toolset approach started with SAP NetWeaver 7.3.
Each shipment provides improvements on already delivered tools as well as
new tools. In the future more and more tools will join.

Dual-Stack Split Tool 2.0 SP 00

SAP recommends you to move away from Dual-Stack systems wherever possible.

Challenge:
SAP Business Suite 7i2011 will be the last SAP Business Suite release
with Dual-Stack support.
Only in very few cases Dual-Stack is still required (SAP Solution Manager &
SAP NetWeaver Process Integration).

Dual-Stack Split tool needs to extent supported

scenarios, operating systems and database
versions. Further automation of application-
related post-split-activities are possible. With the
SL Toolset SP Stacks the tool will be
continuously be improved.

Software Update Manager 1.0 SP 03

Challenge

Businesses running SAP. . .

… want to have a unified consumption experience,

independent from the SAP application product.
Consolidate different software logistics tools into one
unified software logistics tool which is independent from
SAP application products.

… aim at reducing total cost of ownership.

Provide better user experience, support different kinds
of implementation scenarios, and avoid training effort.
