Installing IRC Add-ons using SAINT T-Code

Note the following points before installing a IRC Add-On:

  • The SAINT transaction should be executed by an experienced BASIS administrator
  • Use the latest SPAM version 50 or above, in which most potential problems are usually corrected. An Add-on can be installed only if there are no incomplete support packages or add-ons in the system. If not, proceed as follows:
  • Import the queue completely, and then start installing the IRC Add-on
  • Reset the queue status, import the add-on and then import the queue. For issues in the Add-on installation, see the section List of important SAP Notes pertaining to SAINT in the SAP Note 97620 (OCS Info: Overview of Important OCS Notes)
Note: The IRC add-on is available in the .SAR compressed file format. The SAP BASIS Administrator can use the .SAR format to install the Add-on.
