Can SAP patches be installed when other users are online?

Answer Posted / miali

No, We cant do this because there will be some programs and
tables which will get updated when applying support packages.
if some user is using that program or table then the support
package manager will not be able to update and it will
terminate with dump. So its better to apply support packs
when there are no users login into system. Performance will
also be better if there are no users login into system.
