Summary :
An error in the SAP kernel of Release 6.10 or 6.20 is addressed by upgrading to the 6.40 Kernel, as per SAP Note. Systems with Web AS Release 6.10 or 6.20 using the SAP_BASIS component are specifically applicable. Transitioning to the 6.40 kernel may necessitate an OS upgrade, and careful review of the notes for database compatibility is advised. Information on the release availability for various product and platform combinations can be accessed via SAP's service portal. Kernel upgrade must be executed across all system application servers, with specific procedures in place for Windows environments regarding kernel updates.
