Installing SAP for the First Time on Windows

Hello,
I have purchased a Laptop from Dell with which I've got Windows Vista. Now, I would like to install SAP ECC 6.0 and would like to know the detailed Steps involved in Installing SAP. To be very specific, here is what my configuration is.
2.4 GHz of Core 2 Duo
4 GB RAM
320 GB Hard Drive
Windows Vista Home Edition
Here is what I would like to know.
1. I am aware that SAP Cannot be run on Vista. How do I start with Formatting my Disk?
2. What Operating System Version of Windows can I install among the Ones I have? Windows Server 2003 or Windows XP?
3. Step by Step guide to Install SAP after the OS is Installed.
Please help on this.

  • Installing OBIEE for the first time :(

    Hi
    I am installing OBI v 10.1.3.4.1 for the first time. It is very different to other products I have installed. I have seen lots of documentation but am stuck on a couple of issues.
    1. Connecting to an Active Directory.
    I can create an LDAP connection in the .rpd and assign variables for USER and GROUP, but I am stuck on how to test of this works. I am not even sure I have set it up correctly. Does anyone have any documentation on this? What I have found via Google hasnt been too helpful.
    How do I add AD users to OBI? Import doesnt work for AD, only LDAP.
    2.
    Using Oracle Smartview.
    I have read the documentation as to how to provide a link to download smartview for end users, but dont know how to actually use Smartview with OBI. The doc says I need APS, which I have installed, but to deploy APS, you need Shared Services as well, it then gets silly... I just want to know simply how to u install OBI so Smartview can use it, then how to connect SV to OBI?
    I can separate these threads into 2 questions if required, but they are both issues during my installation.
    regards.

  • [SOLVED]....install Arch, for the first time, am i doing it right?

    The first try, it failed at grub boot(froze with blank screen), so now I'm going to install for the 2nd time and I need your help to confirm if the grub installation procedure below is correct.. (Thinkpad x61s-64bit machine)
    # mkinitcpio -p linux
    # pacman -S grub-bios bash-completion os-prober
    # grub-install --target=i386-pc --recheck /dev/sda
    # cp /usr/share/locale/en\@quot/LC_MESSAGES/grub.mo /boot/grub/locale/en.mo
    # grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg
    # exit
    # umount -R /mnt
    # reboot
    ..or should i just use Syslinux instead? There won't be any other OS on the disk except there's a partition i made previously(ext 4) that i used for file storage purposes(music,video,docs etc) and the said partition now reside in sda4 and do not want to delete that as ive got so much stuff in it and my external HD is full. so i'll have to install Arch on sda1/2/3.
    my partitioning scheme would be 2g swap, 20g root and 30g home.
    Thank you

    You could just use syslinux, but i guess you just had a bad timing with your installation there are a few bugs present with grub at the moment, which are actually already fixed upstream, but not yet available from the official arch repositories. Did you notice any bug messages when running "grub-mkconfig" ? There were probably some "syntax-errors", but they can be easily fixed (https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/38234?project=1&cat[0]=31&string=grub); the method with "GRUB_DISABLE_SUBMENU=y" works fine and you could fix it by "chrooting" into your system again from the live-installation-cd/usb. Alternatively you could enable the testing-repos for installing grub; this version works without the syntax errors, but there is another bug with multiple kernel-entries So the first way would be probably the best way to fix grub at the moment.

  • Installing DsFW for the First Time, new tree?

    I've been reading the documentation but there is some stuff I don't get.
    It seems I can install into a new tree and choose the non-name-mapped deployment. Is this a popular choice?
    Does this provide flexibility or limit it?
    I read the following statement "Novell doesn't support installing other Novell products within a Domain Services for Windows (DSfW) partition." at Novell Doc: OES 11 SP1: Domain Services for Windows Administration Guide - Unsupported Service Combinations
    I think that if I choose a non-name-mapped install then the entire new eDirectory tree will live inside the DSfW partition, or was that statement meant for name-mapped setups? Does that mean that we would not be able to install ZenWorks, Filr or GroupWise into the new tree? If true this suggests non-name-mapped setups are more limiting than name-mapped setups, and probably to be avoided.
    Thanks for the free wisdom.
    Background:
    There is an existing Netware server 6.0 serving about 20 users as a file server but there doesn't appear to be any interest in migration or coexistance. A fresh clean tree is a core element of the plan so far. I'm thinking of three or four OES servers: Two DSfW servers (DHCP, DNS, eDir, domain controllers, SLP), a file server and a Filr server.
    There is other stuff in the environment, including openSUSE DHCP and DNS, SLES application server, various other servers for databases and web stuff, Windows domain for 4 users to use Remote Desktop Services. A bunch of Windows desktops and a proliferation of mobile devices (hence interest in Filr is drive the change right now).
    Hopefully over time the other servers will be part of the new eDirectory tree for authentication and ease of management.
    If I choose a name-mapped setup, I think I need to install 4 or 5 servers: one eDirectory base server (Certificate Server and root partition), then at least one DSfW server (DHCP, DNS, eDir, domain controller), then file server and Filr server.

    2. Install 2 DSfW servers (using name mapped mode) into the eDirectory tree. You have the option to choose the top most container (i.e. whole tree) or a partition for the DSfW installation / configuration. DSfW will install DNS service on the first DSfW server by default. It is recommended to keep the DHCP server on a non-DSfW server.
    3. Install the Filr server on the fourth server
    Thanks for the recommendations, Pavreen.
    Please confirm the main message you are conveying is that a name-mapped installating is best. Is it true that the reason this is best is to allow other Novell products (ZenWorks, for example) to be installed? Is it also true that non-name-mapped installs are rare and offer few (if any) advantages?
    When you say, with respect to the DSfW servers, that I have the option to install DSfW using the top-most container, are you recommending that the second server be a DSfW server with DSfW in the top of the tree? This seems to be the thing that is against the rules according to Novell Doc: OES 11 SP1: Domain Services for Windows Administration Guide - Unsupported Service Combinations "Novell doesn't support installing other Novell products within a Domain Services for Windows (DSfW) partition." But it also the thing I'm sure I don't understand (and hence the post).
    In my reading I didn't encounter a hint that DHCP should be separate from DSfW. DHCP conflicts with DSfW specifically or it introduces challenges more generally with other OES components?
    The number of servers (all Xen PV on SLES) will be chosen to accomodate flexibility. So I think I will not make the CIFS server the first. The first server will be the permanent "Novell Certificate Server" and I think I should make that small and simple to be sure that future upgrades or restore operations are less likely to create challenges for such a critical, and seemingly inflexibly permanent, piece of eDirectory infrastructure.
    What do you think of this modification to your recommendation:
    1. First server is OES Novell eDirectory "Novell Certificate Server" + DHCP + iManager
    2. Then two DSfW servers (DNS). Necessarily name-mapped. The partition question, which was the thing I was least certain about, is still uncertain to me.
    3. Then one file server (NSS, CIFS and NCP). I'm also inclined to have a second DHCP as backup.
    4. Then one Filr
    5. Then probably a ZenWorks server in the further future

  • Installing Solaris for the first time.

    I'm installing Solaris as part of a class project. And no one here has much experience with it. I've run into a few problems:
    I'm installing on an D865GBF motherboard with integrated video and NIC. After a few thousand hiccoughs, I have gotten the OS installed and booting. However, I have a few errors that are holding me back from using the system for anything other than a knic-knack.
    I occasionally get a "couldn't set locale" error. However since I switched from EN UTF-8 to ASCII U.S.A. it seems to have stopped. But I would like an explanation there if you have it 'cause it still confuses me.
    The integrated NIC will not work (e1000g). I have searched through the forums. Done everything I understood, and so far have gotten it recognized. But it still won't work. No idea why.
    The integrated video is recognized and set to 1024/768 75hz during initial config. However when I get to CDE or JDE it is stuck on 640/480 60hz, and I'm not sure how to fix it.
    I have run /usr/sbin/sys-unconfig and reconfigured several times. I'm not sure of anything I am doing right or wrong as I said this is my first time. I also do not know how to run kdmconfig without the wiping the configuration.
    Thank you for reading. I patiently await any help you can provide.

    To change the resolution,
    1. As root, switch to single user mode ("init 0")
    2. Run kdmconfig, from there you can either select XSun, in which case you should be able to continue with kdmconfig to set the resolution, or else select Xorg, in which case you should use xorgconfig to set the resolution [I'm not sure if xorgconfig shipped with the original Solaris 10 or if it came with a later patch]

  • Using QuickTime 7 Pro for the first time with Windows. What can it do?

    Greetings,
    After spending almost two hours with Apple reps, I finally figured out where the controls are for QuickTime Pro. I have started to use Miraizon's Cinematize Pro 2 to extract clips as mpeg-4 files (a lot smaller than a QT movie, though maybe it can be made smaller if I compressed it, though I don't know how). Now I wish I knew exactly what I am able to do with my mpeg-4 clip once I've extracted it.
    So the question is, having a PC, Windows XP and QT 7 Pro, exactly what features does it have for editing? I opened a mpeg-4 with QT Player and of course have the following to choose from under the "edit" function: cut, copy, delete, select all,select none, trim to selection, add to movie, add to selection and scale, find and preferences. So please tell me at least what I can do with this program and at least how to begin.
    By the way, I have a website and use Microsoft FrontPage 2003. I have a combination of video types previously made and sent to me by others; some are .wmv, some are .mov. Now as I use Cinematize 2 Pro, I am creating mpeg-4s. This choice is made because I'd like to keep the file as small as possible without losing quality per se and also I want to reduce to a minimum the problems anyone visiting my site who wants to see the clip might have. Also you should know I insert the movie files onto my websie as plug-ins/MIME files.
    I'm new to the list and would greatly appreciate your help.
    Thanks!

    QuickTime Pro is a rather simple editing application and once you learn how to make a "selection" (letter i and o keys) and then fine tune it (Shift and right left arrow keys) you're on your way.
    You can also "scrub" through large files by using the J, K and L keys or copy/paste selections into new Player windows.
    Dozens of image, video and audio formats can be opened by QuickTime Pro and then "Exported" (converted) to other file formats. It can even open plain text files to use as "titles", narration text for the hearing impaired.
    The Windows version can also make "One Click" audio recordings (Mac version can make video and audio files). A simple way to add a narration track to your video. Since QuickTime .mov files can have up to 99 tracks and support about 27 languages you can make one file for many nations.
    QuickTime Pro is also a very powerful authoring tool.
    QuickTime Pro can even create files that view without a "box":
    http://homepage.mac.com/kkirkster/D/index.html
    Some of my QuickTime files and Web pages as examples:
    http://homepage.mac.com/kkirkster/03war/
    http://homepage.mac.com/kkirkster/RedneckTexasXmas/index.html
    It can also be used to make "presentation" files:
    http://homepage.mac.com/kkirkster/.Public/TouchofGrey.qtl
    What can it do? It's all up to your imagination.

  • Opened Firefox this morning and it was like I had just installed it for the first time

    What is going on with Firefox. Everything was fine last night. This morning I opened it to check the weather and what opened was a new Firefox asking me if I wanted to make it my default browser. All my bookmarks were there. All the add-ons were there but none of them worked and. I installed Personnas and it worked and then I closed it down. Now I went to open it and it won't open so I'm writing you in Google Chrome. I have loved Firefox but I think it's getting like Internet Explorer. Nothing but problems and doesn't want to work half the time. How very sad.

    This may be a problem with preference that aren't saved properly.
