Therefore the NSE buffer has to have an – always ! – sufficient size!

NOT relevant for HANAonPOWER!

• glibc version for SLES15 SP3 and SLES15 SP4 on x86_64 CPUs with AVX2 extention
  Older glibc version could cause a crash on HANA systems.
  It is therefore recommended to update to  >= glibc-2.31-150300.46.1.
  
  The AVX2 extention can be checked with:
  # lscpu | grep avx2
