Is HAGEO supported for SAP Systems?

Could anyone enlighten me as to whether HAGEO (or HACMP/XD) is supported for SAP systems? I have a client who wishes to use this and believes it is fully supported. However, I have been unable to find any references to SAP systems running on HAGEO software.
The IBM competence centre has not so far deigned to respond to my call.
Does anyone know if it is supported/recommended or actually in use for SAP installations anywhere?
This provides essentially HACMP over a much further distance than normal HACMP.
We have proposed a simple HACMP cluster with mirrored disk to a second datacentre to provide DR, however our client thinks it will be cheaper to just have two systems, one in each datacentre, and linked by HAGEO.
I have my doubts but have no evidence to the contrary currently.
Thanks
Andy

For completeness, the ISCC (i.e. IBM) said (basically) don't do it. Use standby databases.
What they actually said was that it was a very complex issue and perhaps we should get lots of IBM consulting in to answer this very difficult question.
But i took the first answer as the likely outcome - don't do HAGEO or HACMP/XD with SAP systems.

  • Just started supporting Oracle Databases  for SAP Systems

    Hello Guys/Girls,
    I am working as oracle dba for the past 7 years, but this is the first time, I got an opportunity to adminster databases supporting SAP systems. I am doing search on SAP Network, and gathered information on BRTOOLS, SAPGUI etc., but could not find the details what I am looking for like, database objects growth rate, sap-oracle database performance specific details, as a oracle dba what are the DOs&DONTs etc., After made a lot of search on google, I found a book from O'Reilly, but that book covers older SAP, and Oracle versions. Our Client uses oracle 9i, and 10g primarily.
    I am confident as a Oracle DBA supporting non-sap systems, but not SAPsystems. Is any one of you pls., suggest me or provide me some guide lines in terms of Database Management.
    Appreciate your time!

    Abhi
    Greate to meet another DBA in forum.The big problem we will face is SQL Tune.
    Nothing much Diffnt supporting SAP.SAP PRovided some ready made tools to monitor and to solve.Reg tuning still we can follow same methoda but with approval from SAP or by ref SAP notes.Which u can find at service market place.
    You can find some PDfs in sap market place and sdn.Which are ex'ly for DBas.
    Reg Growth rate you can have a look on sap transactions and there are some notes also.I dont think there is specific Book or Doc which will say Dos and donts.
    Performance we used to follow same methoda as a Dbas with ref of sap notes and support for any side effects.
    let me know if are in need of any specific info

    Hello Venkatesh,
    Please take a look to the following SAP note 1951805 - Adjusted Version Interoperability for Business Suite 7i2013.
    It explains the version interoperability between the products and version on the Business Suite and the different SAP NW releases. In your case, both SAP BW 7.31 and SAP BW 7.02  will communicate without problem with your ERP system.
    About the integration between SAP NW and BOBJ 4.1, take a look to this:
    Best Practices for Integrating SAP BusinessObjects BI 4.x with SAP NetWeaver Business Warehouse (BW) and SAP ERP
    http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/507d3365-009b-3010-04b0-e5abc8f00c91?QuickLink=index&…
    As far as I know it is possible to integrate SAP BW 7.02 with BOBJ 4.1.
    Best regards.

  • MaxDB support for production systems

    Hi,
    I have a DMS with MaxDB version 7.6.00.18.
    I opened OSS message regarding an issue. I got a solution, however I was told that '7.6.00.18 is very outdated and no longer supported for productive systems'.
    I can install the latest patch but how do I know when MaxDB version is no longer supported for productive system.
    Can someone refer me to a note/article?
    Thanks,

    here is the details i found
    Especially make sure to check in the Product Availability Matrix (PAM) http://service.sap.com/pam that the MaxDB / SAP DB version you plan to use is released for your specific SAP product!

    Hi,
    Thnx a lot for the suggestion Markus
    I have created the directories required.
    The SAP installation has started, but now I am getting the message as below during the ORACLE DB Installation phase,when I run the Oracle ./RUNINSTALLER in Bash Unix:-

    I have set the ORACLE_HOME env variable as below:-
    ORACLE_HOME=/oracle/SMD/102_64
    export ORACLE_HOME
    But I get the same message again as above.
    Do we need to set the ORACLE_HOME env variable in the BASH_PROFILE directly??? Coz I heard that if we set it with the Export command then the env is set only for the current instance and not permanently.
    If so what is the exact entry I need to make in the BASH_PROFILE???

  • Basis work for SAP system copy using DB2 cloning tool

    My company is using the DB2 cloning tool, formerly from MainStar. Our DBAs have used this tool to create a clone of a technical sandbox (ST1) to another DB2 instance (SZ1).
    I am reading through the System Copy for SAP Systems Based on SAP NetWeaver 2004s SR2 ABAP+Java guide and trying to follow the steps.
    As information, our application servers are currently running on zLinux and I am trying to do a system copy of an HA ABAP+Java SID.
    Since we have used the cloning tool, which I would equate to a homogeneous system copy using database specific tools, the guide looks like it says I can skip the Export Preparation and Table Splitting Preparation steps. The only other step for the source system is the Database and Central Instance Export.
    When I execute this step, it creates a dump of the database. This seems useless as we already have a cloned copy of the database.
    Does anyone have the list of Basis tasks for a system copy when the DB2 cloning tool is used?
    Brian

    Nevermind. If someone sets:
    rdisp/j2ee_start = 0
    in an ABAP+Java system, sapinst behaves strangely during the system export and does not give the option to only dump the filesystem. Bug?

    Hi there
    thanks
    I just unchecked the box and that was OK.  Thanks
    However it still failed later with the "helpful message" SAPINST.EXE has stopped working.
    I was trying to install it on Windows 7 RC (build 7100)  X-64 which is now out "in the wild". It's the Release Candidate so should be as near as poss to the Final Retail version.
    We are all going to skip VISTA completely so I hope SAP sorts this stuff out for Windows 7 and Windows 2008 server -- both these products absolutely make VISTA like the REAL dog.

  • Could anybody advise the general procedure for SAP system migration?

    I may have chance to be involved into a SAP system migration. Generlly speaking, there are several SAP instances will be migrated into 1 box.The existing instances are 4.6C, and the target instance is ECC6.

  • Does SSO2 provide SSO Support for SAP BOBI 4.x Applications?

    I could not find any referrence in SAP BI BI 4.x documentation for SSO where this SSO2 would be mentioned!
    - Wobi

    Hi,
    Does SSO2 provide SSO Support for SAP BOBI 4.x Applications?
    BOBJ == SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence platform?
    SSO2 == SAP Single Sign-On?
    If yes, BusinessObjects Business Intelligence platform delivers historically its own basis SSO based on Kerberos (but only for applications running on BOBJ platform). I recommend to use it if it fits to your requirements. If not, you can configure "Trusted Authentication". In this case BOBJ trusts the authentication of the web applications server. Here you can use SAP Single Sign-On with SAML or certificates.

  • ASP creation for SAP systems on i5/OS

    Hi,
    We need to install CRM (abap), PI (abap+java), BW (abap), BW (java), Portal (java) in i5/os V5R4 in one LPAR.
    This existing LPAR is already having ECC Dev , QA and PRD.
    Now we will installal the above component in this existing LPAR where we have same one IP address and host name for all instances. Now I would like to know about ASP creation for these new systems.
    Can anybody suggest me how many ASPs need to create for these systems. If I install all system in one LPAR so what about the DB2 database for all instances. Wheter it will be MCOD for these instances?
    Or I need to create one ASP for each instance and each ASP will have seperate DB2 database
    Please suggest us what needs to be done for the above mentioned case
    Regards,
    Sudip

    Hi Sudip,
    there is no technical restriction to install all the systems you've listed into one LPAR. Even all in one ASP is possible. You should create seperate memory pools at least for the Java systems though.
    The classic MCOD approach is not supported on IBM i. But only because DB2 for i is MCOD by design so to speak. Each SAP system in the same LPAR creates its own database library to work with, no special setup needed.
    Having that said, there are good reasons to run certain systems seperate from others though. For instance BW systems have a different workload characteritics than ERP systems and this may cause resource conflicts. Have a look at the SAP on IBM i Reference Architecture document to get a first idea about landscape design considerations: SAP on DB2 for i
