SAP Certified Technology Associate – System Administration (SAP HANA as a Database) with SAP NetWeaver 7.5 — Question 20

What are prerequisites to use the Software Update Manager (SUM) to apply SAP Support Packages to an AS ABAP-based SAP system? (Choose three.)

Answer options

• A. The SUM archive must have been provided to the SAP Host Agent.
• B. The SAP Host Agent must have been configured by SUM.
• C. The latest SAP kernel patch must have been applied to the SAP system.
• D. The SUM archive must have been extracted.
• E. A suitable Stack XML file must exist.

Correct answer: B, D, E

Explanation

The correct answers are B, D, and E because the SAP Host Agent needs to be properly configured by SUM, the SUM archive must be extracted for the process to access its contents, and a valid Stack XML file is necessary for managing the update. Options A and C are not prerequisites for using SUM, as they do not directly relate to the configuration and preparation needed for applying updates.
