SAP Solution Manager 7.2
Upgrade details

The upgrade from SAP Solution Manager 7.1 to 7.2 is standard

Relevant for all customers:
 No CRM issues this time: SAP Solution Manager 7.2 does not
contain a new SAP CRM release. We only move to a new
enhancement package, the impact of the 7.2 upgrade is
significantly lower than in the 7.1 upgrade
 If you already adopted the Monitoring & Alerting infrastructure,
then you are fine. Note that business process monitoring
based on the Monitoring and Alerting Infrastructure (MAI) is
mandatory in 7.2
 The split of ABAP and JAVA stacks, and the upgrade to SAP
NetWeaver 7.40 are performed automatically in a standard
upgrade procedure
 Activation of Solution Documentation can be prepared well in
advance of the upgrade
Optional upgrade step:
 The migration to SAP HANA fully supports the one-step-upgrade
approach (i.e. the SAP standard for migrating to SAP HANA)

This is the current state of planning and may be changed by SAP at any time.
