To load the package directly from front-end (recommended, faster)

Ensure that you have the latest version of the SAPCAR tool available in the server. To get latest SAPCAR, refer to the OSS note Note 212876 - The new archiving tool SAPCAR.

  1. Start the transaction SAINT.
  2. On the Installation Package menu, point to Load Packages, and then click From Front End.

To load the package with the add-on installation tool from the application server

  1. Log on as user:
    <sid>adm to UNIX
    <SID>OFR to AS/400 (IBM eServer iSeries)
    <SID>adm to Windows NT
  2. To upload the file, use transaction CG3Z Target path DIR_TRANS mentioned in Step 3 below.
  3. Change to the transport directory of your SAP System. The transport directory also appears under the name Transaction AL11 under DIR_TRANS.
  4. Change to the EPS directory, and then change to the "in" directory.
  5. Extract WNSQ30HI.SAR with latest version of SAPCAR tool, which becomes the < >.PAT file. Copy the <>.PAT file to the "in" directory.
  6. Ensure the <>.PAT file is extracted to "in" subdirectory of "EPS". "EPS" directory is located under transport directory (Directory Path is DIR_TRANS\EPS\in).
