Hi,

One way to check via the header of dev_ trace file, i.e dev_w*, dev_disp: something like:

1. M sysno 00

M sid PRD

M systemid 370 (Solaris on SPARCV9 CPU)

M relno 7000

M patchlevel 0

M patchno 52

M intno 20050900

M make: single threaded, ASCII, 64 bit, optimized

M pid 23971

cheers,

Vincent

hello Vincent,

thanks for reply.

Could you say how to see the dev_* file in r/3?

Hi Denis,

Good day. two options to view:

1. You can go to ST11 to view the trace files.

2. Go to AL11, DIR_HOME, which point to WORK folder. dev_* is located there.

namely:
usr\sap\<sid>\<instancename>\work

cheers,

Vincent

P/S: reward points if helpful.

Hi Denis,

very simple really...Go to transaction SM50. Choose any of the workprocess in the list. Then from Menu : Process -> trace -> Display file

That opens up the dev_w<n> file where you can see whether it's 64-bit or 32-bit at the very beginning of the file...(line started with make: ....)

If it's 64-bit, it will be explicitely mentioned. if nothing mentioned, then it's 32-bit

Hope it helps...

Cheers !!

Satya.

PS: points are always appreciated...thx

Hi,

Very simple.

Go to the path: c:\usr\sap\<SID>\SYS\exe\uc\NT<XXXX>.

The naming convention itself will tell you as to if the system is 64 bit or 32 bit. If I386 then 32, if it ends with 64 then 64 bit.

Also this location would be having two files SAPEXE and SAPEXEDB file see the exact number of it and then login to service market place and there match these numbers at the required location to find it out.

Using command prompt go to the same location and type disp+work you will see a few informations which will have the required details about the kernel.

regards and reward with good points.
