Hi Experts,
I am trying to update SAP Kernel. I have done it before without problems but now SAP instance do not go up. I installed SAP NetWeaver 7.4 on Windows Server 2012 and SAP HANA Database on SUSE. Kernel patch level installation is on 28.... I want to update it to level 200. The error written on dev_w0 is:

at first I thought was something wrong with my HANA DB user and I checked it but I did not find anything wrong with credential. So I checked connection with "R3load -testconnect" and I got the error:
C:\Users\n74adm>R3load -testconnect

I also checked "R3trans -d" and it shows me the next error:
C:\Users\n74adm>R3trans -d
This is R3trans version 6.24 (release 742 - 18.11.14 - 20:14:09).

2EETW000 Internal implementation error: function sql_info() in twsql.c not complete for DBMS
2EETW169 no connect possible: "unknown DBMS - not supported by R3trans"
R3trans finished (0012).
Then I tested with Kernel 101 and I got the same result. The strangest thing is when I test it with Kernel level 28 everything is working OK and SAP instance go up. The path where I downloaded SAP Kernel:
Support Packages and Patches - K " --> SAP KERNEL 64-BIT UNICODE" --> SAP KERNEL 7.42 64-BIT UNICODE--> Windows on x64 64bit
Here I download:
#Database independent level 200 and SAP HANA Database level 200.
It appears that SAP Kernel for Windows & HANA Database SP09 works OK with Kernel patch level 28. All my parameters and variables seems to be OK, otherwise SAP would not go up. Hope you can help me. Best Regards my friends.
