Installing BPC NW 7.0 SP01 and hardware sizing

Hi!
I have a question on the installation part of BPC. I am wondering if all the components can be installed on one single server for development/test systems? With all the components I mean the NW 7.0 ABAP server, the database, the .NET server and all the other components that BPC needs. I suppose for production systems that I should separate the ABAP and the database on one server, and have the .NET components on a second server. Any input on this?
What about sizing recommendations for development systems and production systems?
I noticed in the installation guide SAP_BPC_70_SP01_NW_Install.pdf, that SAP recommends 32-bit OS for the .NET server. Anyone got some experience/known issues running it on 64-bit? I know it is possible, but just wondering.
Regards,
Thomas

Hi.
BPC didn't happend this time around, so this is not relevant anymore.

  • Capacity planning and hardware sizing

    Hi,
    I would like to know in detail about capacity planning and hardware sizing while deploying oracle database products. I need to know about properly planning the infrastructure and configuring and deploying the products. Moreover, when should we use RAC,how many nodes, exadata, DR etc. How to size hardwares RAM,Disk for this kind of implemetations.
    I know it depends on budget and environment. Still if anyone kindly give some links/docs I will be able to have a decent start in this domain.
    Regards,
    Saikat

    See , they all depend on your company policy and the database size that they are going to have.
    1. Size : i have worked on databases sizing from 80G to 2000G , all depending on the client or the industry you are catering to.
    2. hardware and Ram : Server Team should know this better , you can have a simple small server if the DB and application are small and the usage would be less. If it a full fledged system with high load then you need to get in touch with your server team and raise an oracle SR for exact specifications for that database and also plan for some future growth.
    3. RAC : depends on the project if it requires such a setup.
    4. DR : is for disaster management. Also all companies implement this by adopting data guard ( physical standby).
    5. For having a good start , start reading the books and refer to oracle documentation. More you refer , more knowledge you will get .
    Start with the basics.... make your basics strong.. and then move ahead with complex setups.

  • BPC 7.5 MS SP06 and SQL Server 2008 R2 SP1 CU2?

    It the latest CU for SQL Server supported? I am installing BPC 7.5 MS SP06 and wondering if I can use SQL Server R2 SP1 CU2.

    Hi Josef,
    That should be fine. However you should still  review the nature of all fixes in that update. Test and roll out onto production

    Have you attempted to reset the SMC? That would be the first step. Hold the left control, option, shift key and the power button for about 5 seconds and release. Then try to reboot. Might as well reset the PRAM as well. Hold command, option, P, R on start up until the machine restarts. If that doesnt' have any affect we'll have to dig deeper into a potential hardware failure.
    If this method doesn't work, check the webcam that will tell the problem is on the iSight & WiFi cable. If your webcam is ok, then it'll be the WiFi card problem. Hope it can help ;-)

  • Should I update BIOS and hardware firmware when installing XP?

    I will soon be receiving a ThinkPad R61 and I plan to downgrade the OS to Windows XP by following this guide to the letter.  However, one part of the guide is unclear to me.
    It states that updating the BIOS and hardware firmware are optional.  How do I decide whether I should do this?  What are the consequences of not doing it?  How badly can I damage my computer by doing it incorrectly -- can I destroy it?
    Thanks! 

    As it says in the guide many times.
    "THE BIOS AND THE HARD DRIVE FIRMWARE UPDATE ARE
    NOT NECESSARY. IF YOU ARE WARY OF BIOS UPDATES, THEN I SUGGEST YOU SKIP
    THOSE TWO UPDATES AND CARRY ON WITH THE GUIDE."
    The BIOS updates sometimes fix errors that may or may not affect you. You would have to read the txt file associated with it to determine if you want to do it or not.  Some folks have to have the latest and greatest and some people have issues that are fixed in the BIOS update.
    A BIOS update gone wrong will render your Thinkpad completely useless.
    I think that if it is not broken, don't fix it.
    Be sure to make the recovery disc set before doing anything else.

  • Server 2012 fresh install - Running at a crawl. Possible hardware issue?

    Hello All,
    I have recently purchased a used server and just fresh installed Server 2012 to evaluate it, and I am experiencing a issue with it running very slow.   So far nothing has been setup or installed besides the OS, hard drives, and a external usb drive,
    so it is pushing me to believe my issue is hardware related.
    First let me describe the issue more.   Basically everything is slow to load.  Control panel takes 20 seconds...  trying to load disk management and other snap in from administrative tools all take 15-20secs+ and first come up in
    a greyed out window or the administrative tools window goes to "Not Responding" for a few seconds then loads it.
    I do not think it is due to the fact the server is used with slightly dated hardware as it has Dual Quad-Core 2.66 Xeons & 16gb ECC Ram, so I was thinking their must be a bad piece of hardware in there?  Maybe bad ram?
    Anyway I plan to start hardware diagnostics, but I just wanted to see if anyone had any insight or suggestions for me.  And to verify if this sounds like a hardware issue to you as well.
    Thanks!

    Windows 2008 R2 that is on top of the list of supported operating systems. It is a good choice for some testing with M350 G5. Then you can test the in-place upgrade and application compatibility test will tell you, which component makes the problem.
    If for example onboard NIC is not compatible, then you can use another NIC card that is compatible. When it is RAID controller (very often), then either use another RAID or single HDD (it is test only, not for production environment).
    You can explore the virtualization path. Get know if appropriate hypervisor from VMvare is compatible with this hardware is also compatible with Windows Server 2012 R2. VMware forum may answer your question on virtualization. Working in virtual environment
    will provide some experience too.
    Majority of current desktop equipment allows you for testing Windows Server 2012 R2. There are some exceptions, namely "high end game machines" that make you to find remedy for drivers (example
    MAXIMUS IV GENE-Z - here is a need to adapt inf file for NIC, because of there is low end NIC on motherboard.)
    For low performance issues use native tools like Performace Monitor and diagnostics - Event logs and Device Manager. For detailed analysis consider Sysinternals tools.

    It's likely that the new drive isn't working, or it wasn't installed correctly, or you had some other hardware fault rather than a bad drive.

  • Installed BPC 7.0 for MS, but cannot connect to server in admin console

    I have installed BPC 7.0, and in the server manager, everything is ok, and seems to be running and there are no errors.  When I attempt to connect to the server with the Admin Console, I am getting the following error:
    "The sstem cannot connect to the XXXXX Application server.  Verify that you have Specified a valid Application server name, or see if the Application server is unavailable at this time"
    any help would be appreciated.

    Hi,
    I would request you to try few things.
    1. This is might be because there are other processes using port 1080.
       Log on to the application server via Remote Desktop.
       Open Task Manager and select the Processes tab.
       Select ManagementAgentNT.exe and choose End Process.
       Select RouterNT.exe and choose End Process.
       Log into IIS and START the Default Website.
    2. Another possible cause can be if the Server and Client are running different versions of BPC. If the version of BPC is different on the server and the client then an uninstall will need to be done on the client
    3. The APPINFO.XML file is corrupt. Delete the APPINFO.XML file located on the client machine in folder "My Documents\OutlookSoft" and login again using the connection wizard.
    Hope one of the above resolves your issue.

  • Install BPC for Office memory error

    Hi, I have a Windows 7 workstation with 8Gb of RAM.  When I try to install BPC for Office, I get the following error:  'Not enough memory.  A minimum of 64 MB of memory is require."  How do I get around it?

    Hi
    As per Sorinu2019s response, until 7.5 there is no official support for Windows 7 or 64-bit operating system.
    However, with that said, if you still wish to progress at your own risk, then you can do so.
    You will first need to get Microsoft .Net 1.1 (32-Bit) installed and configured.
    Then you can install BPC client. However, you cannot install the client from the OSOFT WebPage, else you will receive 'Not enough memoryu2019 error.
    You will need to copy the two executables for the client installation (EverestAdmin and EverestClient) to the client PC and install by running these executables. You must be logged onto the client PC as an account with full local Administrator privileges, and you must also be logged in as an account with full local Administrator privileges for first logon to BPC Admin and BPC Office client.
    Be aware that certain functionality may not work as expected, for example PDF Publishing.

  • Error in installing BPC 5.1

    Hi experts,
    When we are trying to install BPC 5.1 then we are geting error saying that "System Exception:Can not create ActiveX component".
    Can anyone plz suggest the solution.
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards,
    Prakash

    I think your problem is related to rights of installation user.
    It should be administartot into that computer.
    Or it is related to the fact that installation of SQL, OLAP was not done with default instances and in that case you have to specified the right instances during the installation of SAP BPC.
    Also can you please provide the information what version of SAP BPC 5.1 are you trying to install?
    When you launch the installation of SAP BPC are you using startup.exe or setup.exe.
    You have to use startup.exe
    Let me know if any of suggestion help if not I will try to provide others.

  • Proactive caching Error while installing BPC 7.0 SP6

    All,
    We are installing BPC 7.0 sp 6 on Microsoft SQL Server 2008 (RTM) - 10.0.1600.22 (Intel X86)   Jul  9 2008 14:43:34   Copyright (c) 1988-2008 Microsoft Corporation  Standard Edition on Windows NT 5.2 <X86> (Build 3790: Service Pack 2)
    In short SQL 2008 Standard Edition. Will BPC 7.0 work with it?
    We tried to install the BPC and recived the "Proactive caching" errors. I know we will need this feature for ROLAP.
    Can we keep Standard Edition and make it work? Or we will need EE of SQL for BPC to work?
    Thanks for your help.
    Sam
    Edited by: Sam Patel on Mar 24, 2010 10:05 AM

    SQL Server EE is required for all SAP BPC Microsoft versions.
    BPC is using functionalities from SSAS delivery just with EE.
    Proactive caching is one the features available just into EE not into SE. But are also other features used by BPC from SSAS which can be found just into EE.
    It is true that actually just for SSAS we require EE, for all other componetnts we don't really need EE.
    So the installation will work, but of course you will have some limitations coming from Microsoft.
    For example SQL Server SE is able to handle maximum 4 processors.
    RS can not be installed into Web farm if you are using SE
    And many others.
    I hope this will help you to have a bteer view about what is reguired and why.
