Regarding Linux Installation

Hi,
Today i bought the ideapad y530-40512uu laptop. I want to install linux in this laptop. Please give some information about how to install linux in this laptop. In the installation if my windows corrupt means how can i recover my windows vista. For ur information my harddisk configured as follows
C drive: 254GB
D drive: 29 GB.
Vista is installed in C drive. I don't know the reason why my C drive size is 254GB.
Thanks and Regards
S.Balamurugan

Follow the article that you posted. Just remember not to resize drive "C". If you don't use drive "D" for anything, you can delete the partition and use that unallocated space to install Linux. If you resize drive "D" and leave 15GB for linux, that is OK also.
If you are worried about losing preinstalled Vista, I would suggest that you create recovery DVDs from OKR 6.0. But DO NOT resize drive "C" or else the recovery DVDs will be useless.

Linux Installation- I can't find the required install script

I'm trying to follow the LabVIEW installation guide for Linux, but I am having trouble. This post will be kind of long, as I will try to tell you everything I have done so far. I'm also kind of new to Linux, so I'm sure there are many things I don't know.
I'm trying to use http://www.ni.com/pdf/manuals/374718a.html#installing
and http://www.ni.com/pdf/manuals/375845d.pdf
Step one from the guide is to insert the "installation media" and run
#sh ./INSTALL
and that's easy enough. Or at least it would be if I had any idea where this sh file is. I requested a copy of the install disks from my university (I'm installing on one of their computers), and they said that while they don't have any Linux install disks, they were pretty sure "it is on there somewhere," whatever that means. That seems to be about the extent of their knowledge regarding linux.
On this disk is a folder named slcp10 with contents slcp10.cab, slcp10.mis, and slcp200_mft.cab, all of which are windows files and as far as I can tell impossible to run on linux unless I'm using WINE, which is clearly not the way to go.
I also have a few ISOs from the site licensing department, but likewise no one seems to know anything about installing on linux. After mounting these ISOs I see that they contain the folders Bin, Common, Distributions, Licenses, and Readme (which is full of all kinds of irrelevant stuff). They also contain the files academicsitelicense.html, asladminresource.html, autorun.exe, autorun.inf, nisuite.xml, patents.txt, readme_core.html, setup.ede, and suite_md5_1.xml, none of which seem promising. Again, I only know how to install .exe files using WINE.
I've since turned to the internet to try and download it from NI directly, and have gone to http://www.ni.com/download-labview/ and selected "Already own LabVIEW? Download the latest version." From there I select the dropdown for alternative OS, and select the MAC OSX option as I read somewhere on the NI help pages that this would work on a linux machine (which makes sense to me, as MAC is UNIX-based, right?). Well, that gives me a dmg file (apparently some sort of mac file?) which I found a way to use on linux by extracting it in 7zip and then mounting the hfs file. This still seems to be some sort of evaluation program, as it contains LabVIEW2014Evaluation.pkg, readme.html (which takes me to the OSX install readme-useless), installation_guide.pdf (again, solely for MAC and useless to me), drivers.webloc, and the folders Extras and Licenses.
I'm at wit's end, man. I feel like I'm taking crazy pills. I've never had so much trouble installing a program before in my life, because technically I haven't even started the installation process yet, and I'm already about to defenestrate my computer. Please help me. I don't know what else to do, and I'm sure there is a very simple solution that I'm too ignorant to see.
At our other lab we run windows, and installing is cake. After learning Linux over the past few months, I never thought I'd say this, but I actually wish I had a windows machine right now.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Well, I managed to get it installed, but only because I found another ISO from the site licensing department that had linux install files. Oddly enough, this single ISO is a scant 3 Gb while there are three other ISOs that each come in at 7.5 Gb. Are there really that many missing packages in Linux?
Sorry if anyone reading this has similar issues, but the best I can do is say find the Linux install disk.

I am very new to XI and i want to get into XI domain.
At present i am actually into SAP-ABAP from 2 years.
As i want to learn XI so i want some suggestions from all you guys familiar with XI.
I have some questions regarding XI.
1. What is the system configuration required for installing XI!
2. Can we get the XI software [Trail versions-Down load] from any web sites!
3. What are the prerequisities for learning XI.
   Like what are the languages we should be familiar
   before for learning XI!
4. Actually what is XI is all about!
5. Can anybody send me good material for XI for me to
   proceed further.
   If anybody having very good material in XI please

Hi Shaik,
Follow these steps while installing XI:
1. Windows server or advanced server with latest service patch.
2. IE 6.0 with latest service patch
3. Install Microsoft office and winzip, acrobat
4. Install JDK with version 1.4.2_03 or above with the corresponding JVM
5. Install the SAP GUI 6.20
6. Make sure that you have hard disk space of 10 GB in C drive and 50 GB in the installation drive.
7. Make sure the virtual memory is between 512 and 1594 or above for the installation drive.
8. Copy the dumps of following DVDs into the installation drive.
Installation Master DVD
Installation Export
Additonal Components for SAP BW/SAP XI,SAP MI,SAP KW
SAP Web As Java
9. Start the installation from the DVD dump Installation Master DVD.
10. When installing the ABAP Database the SID of the oracle default database should be different the ABAP database SID.
U can go through the Installtion Guides for Installing XI from http://service.sap.com/instguides (SR1 installation)
u can also refer to service.sap.com/platforms to see the available platform on which XI can be installed. ( Windows/linux/UNIX)
or you can even go through this weblog which clearly talks to you about XI installation
<a href="/people/sap.user72/blog/2005/05/31/my-experience-with-xi-installation-on-fedora-core-3-linux installation</a>
In addition to this installation guide you also need to download the XI configuration guide which is very useful for technical configurations of various adapters and XI system.
At the same place you will also get the XI configuration guide e.g XI30ConfigGuideSPS11.pdf.
U can also download SAP Exchange Infrastructure 3.0 SR1 Installtion Guide from the articles scetion.
ABOUT XI :
If its just that you wanted to know more about sap xi....then the information below should definitely help you.
The best way to learn XI would be to make the maximum use of XI from its forums, weblogs, presentations, etc in SDN.
First I thought I will just give u the basic steps involved in doing any scenario in XI. This is very essential for a beginner.
First of all you would need to define your product, software component, business system and configure the technical landscape in the sld.
You then go on to create the objects in the repository, you import your software component here and then begin your design steps. To import your RFCs n Idocs if you require any before proceeding.
Then under the name space which you want, you go on to define your data types, message types and message interfaces.
Then you do your message mappings where you specify your source and target message types and the relation between them, then you do your interface mapping. If you are using a BPM, you do the integration process.
Once you have this done, you will have to move to the directory, here is where you define how you use the objects and how you configure them to work as a scenario.
You assign your business system to the configuration scenario which you have created, and create the communication channels. Then you go on to configure the receiver determination, interface determination, and the sender and receiver agreements. Once youre done you will have make sure you activate your objects. The exact parameters steps depend on what kind of scenario you are implementing.
You can use sxmb moni or the runtime workbench to monitor the entire scenario which you have done.
Also I would suggest this link on SAP help for any info that you want on XI,
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/14/80243b4a66ae0ce10000000a11402f/frameset.htm
Further, this thread deals with everything that is needed for a starter on XI. Do check them out,
JDBC Receiver: exact SQL statement
/message/527697#527697 [original link is broken]
And after you are done with the documentation probably you can go through this scenario,
JDBC Receiver: exact SQL statement
Also check the following threads which might help you a little more,
Learning XI
XI 3.0 Training
In simple words regarding learning XI, there is an abundance of information on SDN and help.sap.com. So I think it will be better for you to search information there rather than me just providing you links.which will just go on and on and on.so I felt it is better for you to go and search so that not only you get information on SAP XI but also explore SDN in its real sense.

Abhy

Compile programs after linux installation

Hello,
when execute a transaction for first time after Linux installation the program is compiled. The server is a dialog instance with Red Hat and the central instance and database server have HP-UX O.S with Oracle. Why do this?
Regards.

ABAP programs are stored in text in the database table REPOSRC (often accessed from database view TRDIR). The first time any ABAP program is executed, it must be compiled first. Each time a program is executed, the compiled version is compared to the text version - if the text version has changed since the last compile, it will be compiled again. If you have a heterogenous install (for example, Unix and Linux application servers), then the programs must be compiled once for each platform.
The transaction code SGEN can help you to pre-compile all of your programs, if you wish.
Cheers,
David.

Linux installation problem on D20

Hi, guys,
I am trying to install Redhat Linux x86_64 5.3 on D20 with a Marvell 88SE63xx/64xx SAS controller. As the Linux installer cannot recognize the SAS controller, I download a driver of Marvell mv64xx for Redhat x86_64 5.2 from Lenovo driver matrix website. Unfortunately, no matter how I follow the instruction to load the driver, the so-called mv64xx doesn't drive the Marvel 88SE63xx/64xx SAS controller in D20, so that the Redhat 5.3 Linux installer cannot find any hard drive. This is ridiculous and ironic because I got 5 SAS 15rpm hard drives in D20. Does anyone know how to resolve this problem and get Redhat Linux 5.3 installed on D20 with SAS drives?
Solved!

hello, good news everyone
today i tested the upcoming kernel 2.6.31-1 with ubuntu server x64 (9.10 / karmic)
and what can i say?

the kernel included the mvsas module and its dependant, and ran out of the box doing anything. and yes, it's a software raid, the bios offers raid 5 and 10, but they are greyed out. okay, my graphic is now broken with 2.6.31-1, but hey, the 5 port's are working i almost forgot where i have put the 500gb disk. hdparm -tT showed 7.8gb/s buffered and 77mb/s normal read, which is normal for the drive.
because of the nature of a module, i believe you have to compile a kernel with support of mvsas on your own to boot linux from it, or you use the ich10 - only for optical drives - sata port, which works fine with the intel x25-m ssd.

Linux installer missing from Solution Accelerator 9.5 Download

The only solution accelerator download that I find at https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/entitlement/index.cfm?e=solution_accelerators is Solution_Accelerator_9_5_WWEFDJ_Win.zip.
The installation document (install_sa.pdf)) says to run the Linux installer from "/Disk1/InstData/Linux/NoVM" however when I unpacked the .zip download file I only see Windows installers.
I've installed ES 2.5 from the provided virtual appliance which is a SUSE Linux system so I require the Linux installer. Any ideas where I can find the Linux installer?

Yes, same thing happens to me, I've downloaded lc_es2_connector_for_sharepoint_9.0.0.2_v1_win_jboss.zip since I've been using the Suse Linux Appliance installed from Adobe as trial (LiveCycleES2SP2.x86_64-0.0.4).
and now I'm stuck since the 86 MB zipped file doesn't have anything to do with the Linux Virtual Appliance (eg. no linux installation files ?).

How do you exit the Arch Linux installer?

How do you exit the Arch Linux installer? I decided to install windows before installing Arch Linux because I want to dual-boot/with those operating systems.
What command should I type to exit & eject my Install CD?

reset button?
I think it depends on far into the process you are, if you are formatting the drive anew then it shouldn't matter much when, where, or how
Best of Luck,
Pat Jr.

Question regarding the installation of a J2EE 6.40 Add-in

Hi all,
I would like to install a J2EE engine on a test instance of ECC 5.0 and have a few questions regarding the installation...
Do I have to use the MASTER CD to first install the J2EE engine (Support Package 0) and then apply the latest support packages found on the SAP Marketplace?
Or should be able to directly install the J2EE Add-In by using the latest support packages found on the SAP Marketplace?
Best regards,
Xavier Vermaut

Thanks Bhavik for your reply,
That's what I actually thought but I get the following problem... Here's what I wrote into my customer message... I am still waiting for an answer and would like to get this solved ASAP
Dear SAP,
We would like to install the J2EE 6.40 Add-In on our ECC 5.0 instance
(TST) but get the following error message at the very beginning of the
installation
> Cannot find an installed ABAP system, which is a prerequisite for a
> J2EE Add-In installation. The installation cannot continue.
We checked the installation logs (sapinst_dev.log) and found the
following :
> Found these instances:
> sid: MGR, number: 00, name: DVEBMGS00, host: erpqs1a
> sid: TST, number: 10, name: DVEBMGS10, host: erpqs1a
Why does the installation say that it can not find any ABAP systems when
having previously found the 2 different instances running on this
server?
Would this problem be related to the fact that we have two instances on
this server?
Please find hereunder the way we performed this installation :
01) Download of the 4 different parts of SAP J2EE Engine 6.40 SP 10
     (Solaris 10 - Oracle)
     Part I   : SAPINST10_0-20000121.SAR         (Solaris 64)
     Part II : CTRLORA10_0-20000121.SAR         (Solaris 64)
     Part III : J2EERTOS10_0-20000121.SAR        (Solaris 64)
     Part IV : J2EERT10_0-10001982.SAR          (OS Independant)
02) Extract these 4 archives into /install/J2EE_640
03) Check Java Version and Environment Variables
04) Check Solaris Pre-Requisites
05) Adapt "product.xml" as specified in OSS Note 697535 (IGS)
06) Log in as 'root'
07) Set DISPLAY environment Variable
08) Move to the Installation directory
      ( /install/J2EE_640/SAPINST-CD/SAPINST/UNIX/SUNOS_64 )
09) ./sapinst
10) In the 'Welcome to Netweaver Installation' screen, select
      => Dialog Instance Finalization
Any idea how to get this solved?

Cannot find an Oracle Linux installation for 32 bit machines

Can anyone show me where to find a linux oracle 11g or 10g installation for a 32 bit machine.
The ones I downloaded from oracle are all for x86 64bit machines.
Thanks

On following page
http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/dat
abase/index.html
this is the link
http://download.oracle.com/otn/linux/oracle11g/linux_x
86_11gR1_database.zipWhat I actually said is that the link provided is for 64bits linux machines.
When I try running uname -r on my linux bash prompt, I get the i3686 tellin g me that I am running a 32bit machine.
On the other hand, installation guide specifies that we should check the kernel version and system architecture.
I don't think I should continue installation on seeing that I am trying to install a 64bit product on a 32bit system.

Michael
