Hi Kemal,

Webdispatcher installation will be very much like a SAP installation  .

You should traverse to the directory /usr/sap/ <WEB DISPATCHER SID >/SYS/exe

or /sapmnt/SID/exe

The webdispatcher kernel files  will be non uncicode

Stop the webdispatcher  [ Login as <sid>adm where sid is the webdispatcher SID , stopsap )

rename the  /sapmnt/<SID>/exe/nuc/rs6000_64  to /sapmnt/<SID>/exe/nuc/rs6000_64.old

and extract the new kernel to /sapmnt/<SID>/exe/nuc/rs6000_64



You can check the version of the webdispatcher by  the following command


sapwebdisp pf=<profile> -v    OR

sapwebdisp pf=<profile> -version


[ the profile  will be available in /sapmnt/<Web dispatcher SID >/profile ]

Thanks ,

Manu
