How to Install a Dialog Instance on NT server which CI is running on Unix

Dear expert:
Recently, we wanna add new dialog instance for our production system, but only one NT server can be used. Our SAP version is ECC6.0 SR3 and it's CI is running on HPUX 11.31. steps below:
1. I have configed the SAMBA with shared /sapmnt -> /usr/sap. Also from NT side this directory can be accessed.
2. I have add the <SID>adm and SAPService<SID> into SAMBA for access this directory with read and write rights.
3. I installed the DI on NT server with x86 master.(our NT is windows 2003 x64 SP2)
4. during the installation, the Master needs a directory named 'saploc' ( I think this should be only for NT with CI has this shared directory name, but no idea how to make this also in UX, so i create a new directory in UX named saploc and also share it). Is this normally?
5. At the end, the DI in NT can not be running normally..first is dispwork.exe can not running. After I change the rights for 'saploc' in ux, the dispwork is running but can not connected to message server.
6. I have updated the kernel for DI and make sure both the DI and CI has same version 236.
7. After that , the disp+work.exe can never been running anymore
8. I reboot the NT server try to fix this issue. but too bad! after reboot, I can not even start the DI from SAPMMC! with error 'permission deniedu2018..
My question:
1. do any one of yours has such experiences before? I mean install app server on different OS system.
2. Is that possible for SAP ECC6.0 SR3, since I know that lots of successful storys for 46C or 470
3. If it is possible.. how to ....
Hope yous can give me some suggestions!
Regards
Ethern

Hi my friend
Did you check note 680617? Sorry I don't have hands on experience for this matter but I'm quite sure it's doable and fully supported.
Here's the checklist I can imagine:
1. release the /usr/sap directory as SAPMNT -- you already did and made sure it can be accessed from NT server
2. edit DEFAULT.PFL in the profile directory and add the parameter SAPGLOBALHOST to it -- you didn't indicate
3. have your target X86_64 kernel directory ready on CI HPUX host -- you didn't indicate but you did finish the DI install
4. use SAPPAD to edit DI profile
5. optional steps for oracle
Please let me know what progress you have there.
Thanks,
Effan

Install additional "dialog" instance on another drive on the server

We are running NW2004S (SR2) with BW on SQL 2000, Windows 2003 on a two-node cluster. We have an existing ABAP/Java instance installed on
the "C" drive (#11) on one of the servers. I would like to install
another dialog instance on the same server as instance "01" on the "D"
drive, but when I run the install (sapinst) and select "custom", the
installation recognizes the existing instance on "C" and doesn't give
me the ability to install the new instance on "D" (just "C"). How can
I install this instance on the "D" drive ? Do I need to uninstall the
existing "11" instance on "C". Also, on this server there are two "enq"
server processes installed (ABAP #30, and Java #35) on the "C" drive -
what happens with them ?

Hi Ruchit,
I did specify the CI node when referencing the SAP profiles in the cluster and they are all recognized. My problem is that the installation only gives me the ability to install on the "C" drive. As a follow-up, SAP stated that since this is an additional dialog instance install, sapinst will perform the installation wherever the "saploc" shared says (in my case "C" - /usr/sap). It appears that if I want to basically move my existing dialog instance (11) from the "C" drive to the "D" drive, I need to uninstall the instance, along with the "enq" instances, then re-install the instance on the "D" drive.

Also My port for first OBIEE instance is 9704 and second one is 9725(Which i changed to this)

Installing a Dialog instance on a 2008 server while having the CI on 2000

Hi all,
Can we do such a thing? Install the Dialog Instance on a 2008 server while having the CI on 2000?
Thanks!
Samer

Yes you can do it.
What you need to keep in mind that both system should be in network and /sapmnt should be mounted into DI server.
We have tested it into 2 different Linux version yesterday.

Is it really necessary to re-install the dialog instances?

Hi,
We are upgrading from NW04 (WAS 6.40) to NW04s (WAS 7.00) ABAP SR2 only on Windows 2003 with Oracle 9i. There is no JAVA stack in our environment and we don't need it.
In production system we have five separate dialog instances on five different physcial machines. All these application servers runnon Windows 2003 as well.
Reading through the NW04s upgrade guide "SAP NetWeaver 2004s
Application Server ABAP" dated 28th November 2006,
section 6.26 states we have to "install the new dialog instance on top of the old dialog instance".
In the past upgrades eg. upgrade to NW04, we did not have to use SAPINST to re-install the dialog instance. Instead, the official NW04 (WAS6.40) upgrade guide just instructs us to amend instance profile parameters and copy the new version of kernel binaries either manually or using sapcpe.
I want to avoid doing this re-installation work for the five dialog insatnces. Because I want to reduce the production outage period.
Question all the upgrade experts
1) Does any one have experience that indicates I should follow the SAP documentation to un-install 6.40 instance and then re-install at 7.00 level again?
2) Also, what is the technical reason to uninstall and re-install?
The full section 6.26 section paragraph is pasted here.
6.26 Upgrading or Installing Dialog Instances
After the upgrade of the central instance, you need to upgrade the dialog instance to the new release.
To do this, you install the new dialog instance on top of the old dialog instance using the tool SAPinst.
You can now also install additional dialog instances, if necessary.
Procedure
Proceed as described in the document Installation Guide ‒ <SAP NetWeaver / SAP solution> <Technology> on
<Operating System>: <Database>.
Caution
If you upgrade a dialog instance, make sure to use the same instance number as on the source release.

Hi Matt,
Thanks for your detailed response. Our system is very much heavy batch processing oriented. Therefore our management does not want to hand over the production system until all dialog instances are ready at the new version.
It would be great if the upgrade process is quick as you pointed out.
Can you show me where this "upgrade dialog instance" option in V7 SAPINST? FYI. I should be able to start sapinst over the next few days to look for this upgrade option.
However, I just got a response from ASIA-PACIFIC OSS that says I have to un-install and re-install the existing dialog instance. Their response is as follows :
The dialog instance does not need to be upgraded since in the dialog
instance, no database exists but only the kernel files and some
profiles exist. After the upgrade, you should re-install the dialog
instance since in the central instance, the kernel release has been
changed to 700 due to the upgrade. But in the old dialog instance,
it should still have the old release kernel files and profiles.
Thus, by using reinstallation, the new release kernel files will be
installed in the dialog instance.
As to the procedure, you should uninstall the old instance firstly since during the installation, the files will be put to the same path of the
old instance.We recommend you to backup the old dialog instance files
before the installation.Sorry there is no related note but you can refer to the upgrade and installation guides.
Thanks for your input and assistance.

How to Install XI and EP on Single server

Hi,
How to install XI and EP on same server. I tried to install XI then EP . After EP installed then iam not able to access XI j2ee engine . I think some where port conflicts . I gave system number for XI : 00 and EP : 02
Can any one help for this. Where did i made mistake.
Thanks
Kristene

Hi Kristene,
I have installed XI and EP on the same server (for test purposes) without any problems, so it should be possible. I installed them in a different order (first EP then XI), but I don't think that matters much.
The only real difference is that I kept the system number the same.
What do you mean exactly with not being able to access the XI j2ee engine? How did you try to access it?

There is no need to rename file.
You can get gnumake folder on name. The latest one is make-3.79.1.tar.gz
Get two more files make and tar files........
Instead just search this site for installing gnu make. Very easy steps are there.
I think there should not be any problen.
And Just dump all the files somewhere. When you start installation and installer does not find something it will ask for the location. This is the way I haev followed.
let me know when you successed.
BTW what is the system config you are using?
