In SAP systems, the SAP kernel determines which version of the precompiler software is used. Each SAP MaxDB client package therefore contains all of the Precompiler Runtimes or SQLDBC versions that are available. To operate the data assistant or liveCache assistant (transactions DB50/LC10) and the DBA planning calendar (transaction DB13), you require a minimum version of the client (DBMCLI) that corresponds to the relevant SAP MaxDB kernel. After you change the database version from 7.5 to, for example, 7.6, you must therefore also update the client software on the application servers. When you apply a database patch, you do not usually have to update the client software. 10. How is the release of the library dbadaslib or dbsdbslib dependent on the version of the SAP MaxDB Precompiler Runtime? Note 578324 contains information for UNIX platforms. The library dbadaslib or dbsdbslib is dynamically linked.
