Relevant notes prior to beginning implementation:OSS 1024932 - Maintenance Optimizer: Collective Note

OSS 990534 - Solution Manager Maintenance Optimizer: BC Set

OSS 1008717: HTMLViewer: Postdata of length more than 255 gets truncated. ***OSS 1022797: Maintenance Optimizer: Can not select product version

*** - OSS 1022797 is fixed by 1008717, OSS 1008717 is supplied in SAPKB70011 ***

Support Package Considerations:

The new functionality is contained in ST (SAP Solution Manager Tool) support

package 9 - SAPKITL419.

This ST SP is dependant on BBPCRM SP7 - KU50007 which is dependant on

support package stack 10 - SAPKx70010.

ST-ICO which is raised to SP7 (SAPK-15077INSTPL) in stack 10, is not requiredto implement SAPKITL419, but should be implemented along with the rest of

support package stack 10.

Prior to configuring the Maintenance Optimizer your minimum system requirements are:

Prior to ST SP10 (SAPKITL420), OSS Note 990534 must be implemented into Solution

Manager in order to create program SM_PREP_MAINTENANCE_OPTIMIZER

Use of BC Sets from OSS note 990534 :

o Call transaction SCPR20 and activate the following BC Sets in your Solution

Manager client: SOLMAN40_MOPZ_TTYP_SLMO_000,SOLMAN40_CHARM_PROXYFACT_001. You must activate them in expert modewith the option "Overwrite everything". You can select expert mode after you havechosen "Activate". If the Solution Manager client is used productively, you must calltransaction SCC4 and temporarily remove the 'Production' client role before youactivate the BC Sets.

o Create a new transport request (transaction SE09) in the source client of your

Solution Manager system. Unpack the SOLMAN40_MOPZ_TTYP_SLMO_000.zipfile from the attachment to this note. Copy the contents of theSOLMAN40_MOPZ_TTYP_SLMO_000.txt file into the transport request. Usetransaction SCC1 to import the transport request into your Solution Manager client.
