Choosing Central Component Host or Distribued

Question

Hi Dear friends,
I would have prefer to in install our demo system on a central component host mode and not on a distributed mode. But there is a step where the system is asking me the Migration Export Media which I do not have. How do you solve this problem ?
Tkx for your help.

Hi Sergo,
Do not be upset. I m just trying to find out your direct answer to my issue.
1- Am I using the right path ?
2- If not (as I only have the menu shown previously and I m using the right DVD 51033517), where is the right path ?
3- Then is it because of 32bits or 64bit I m not having the path leading to INSTALL instead of COPY ?
4- Here is what my system check is showing me
SAPinst GUI
Version : 701.06.3
Run Mode : Client/Server
SAPInst Host: localHost
SAPinst Port : 21200
GUI Port : 21212
System Information
Java Runtime Version : 1.4.1_18
Java Home Directory: C:\program Files\Java\j2re1.4.2_18
Java vendor : Sun Microsystems Inc
Operating System: Windows 2003 (x86)
I did not found some where 34bit or 64bit. But my system seem to be a 64bit unless someone knows what is it about a HP ProLiant DL365 - Second-Generation Opteron 2218 2.6 GHz
HP ProLiant DL365 - Rack - 2-way - 1 x Second-Generation Opteron 2218 / 2.6 GHz - RAM 2 GB - SAS - hot-swap 2.5" which is the one we are using.
5- So When I m installing (do not reaaly know if I m installing as I may not have the right path) or copying (the one I have), I have the following error :
Unable to start a service execution.
Please check the following information for the possibble reason

Please check standard out and inform the installation development.
Abort Installation because of
keydb.unableToOpenURL
It seems like it s a communication problem. The Install Guide is saying somewhere that if you have an eror message, enter the following comm :
sapinst.exe SAPINST_DIALOG_PORT=<free_port_number_sapinst_gui_to_gui_server>
GUISERVER_DIALOG_PORT=<free_port_number_gui_server_to_sapinst_gui>
I did it and it does not work.
