HI,
1: My laptop has Windows XP Media Centre Edition installed, Is SAP compatible with this OS?
>> SAP not recommends Windows XP Media Center Editions, probably someone has installed this but i would never prefer this if i install SAP 4.7 or any other versions .
2: I have a external hard drive of 80 GB. Is is possible if i install windows 2003 first on this external hard drive and then install SAP on that? And is 80 GB HDD is enough for installation requirement of Windows 2003 and SAP 4.7.
>> Yes it is possible to install windows2003 in external harddisk but you cannot believe on external harddisk during Sap insallation may be you are able to install successfully or may not be so i never prefered that, but 80 gb is enough for 4.7.
3: I tried to access the link provided by you to see the step by step installation process of SAP- but i am not able to access it as it is asking for the user credentials.
>> As you know you need a user id and password to login into that site, if you dont have software and installationguide then how will you install??
Note:As per my understanding

Hi Everyone,

Manu,
I´m not blaming you but you should get familiar with what you want to do first.
SAP is not an operating system so the CDs are not "bootable". There is not a simple "setup.exe" where you doubleclick, enter some parameters and you´re done. SAP is a complex system with an underlying database, that need to be installed and managed.
No matter what people tell you, without a knowledge, what´s going on behind the scenes, you will probably be able to get it installed but you will run to different problems sooner or later.
Usually it´s like this:
- you contact your local SAP representative in your country
- you make a contract with them depending on number of licenses, users, products etc
- you get access to the service marketplace where you can download CDs, Installation guides, have access to actual notes etc.
SAP is not a boxed product, that you install on a laptop by doubleclicking something.

Need SQL Server service packs installation procedure

Hey Guys,
I am in the process of installing service packs to my SQL Server 2008 and R2 editions, I was searching for the installation procedure in technet for this but nothing was provided for this, I tried to read the
"readme" and setup documentation provided in the SP 4 download page but its useless since its redirecting again to some other page which again points to same download page, It makes me wonder if there are any procedures provided by Microsoft for
this. Let me know if anyone has it. I don't want to follow any third party websites/ individual bloggers providing best practices/installation procedures.
My Environment: SQL SERVER 2008/ R2 (STANDARD) and these are standalone
machines.
OS: Windows server 2008 R2 STANDARD

Hi Archana,
Check the Dowload link:
http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/downloads?rid=/library/uuid/a0a6bd7b-3dfc-2c10-eb95-aae0f777d4ab
Refer to blog for procedure. Although the procedure is for NW 7.3 installation the procedure is similar and the downloads are already available from above link.
http://tknight.org/sdn/show/25031
2GB should be enough even though 3GB is recommended.

kindly help me where i am going wrong.
Yours friendly,
Bharath.

Hi Andreas,
many thanks to you for the timely help.
a.)I want to know why there is an error at brconnect ? why is it returning an error code (128) at UPDATE DATABASE STATISTICS stage.
I have read in this forum itself that the UPDATE STATISTICS need not be suceesfully completed and we can edit database.r3s
" ..on the other hand you can easily invoke the update statistics after the installation has ended (succesfully!)...edit DATABASE.R3S (or the appropriate template file you are using) by changing the status=ERROR to status=OK...this will let you finish the installation..-GreetZ, AH."
I have searched for this file (database.r3s) in my system in vain Where can i find this file database.r3s?.
Have i done any configuration mistake at the pre-installation stage. I have installed Oracle 9.0 using setup.exe of oracle. should i use sapserver.cmd to install oracle?.I havent applied any patch for Oracle 9.0
Should I apply any patch just the same way we do for Oracle 8.1.x ?. If so, where can i get the patch for Oracle 9.0 .?.
b.) You said there should not be any spaces in file path (ex: C:/SAPinst ORACLE KERNEL/) . But I havent specified file path, the r/3 setup itself has created the directory path.
c.) I want to know one thing- should we create a database before installing r/3. When we are installing Oracle 8/9. x what are the components that we are installing?
Your friend,
Bharath.

Installation Procedures Proven Best Practices 10 Years...

I wish to address two topics under this posting:
1. The intentional use of the v1.1 Combo update
2. Recommended pre-installation procedures that have proven to work for me over the last 10 years. I make the following statements for inferential purposes: I use my macs to make a living: professional video, film, for broadcast, as well as technical work in industrial engineering, both elec. and mech. I do all my own maint. and repairs, hard and soft.
1. Someone had mentioned that the v1.1 combo update was applicable to only a handful of machines that had problems using the original 10.6.3 combo update. Well this is obviously not true as Apple has removed the original 10.6.3 combo update download from their support downloads and replaced it with the v1.1 combo update. Additionally, the details of the v1.1 combo update do not specify specific machines... obviously, there was something amiss with the original 10.6.3 combo updater download.
2. Prior to executing major updates I always follow these procedures and policies, most of which I must credit to a gentleman who posts on this site under the name "Kappy", who has helped me numerous times over the last 10 years, is very approachable, and knowledgeable:
A). Never perform major updates on a "bread-n-butter" (i.e. a mac you use to make a living) machine if you need to use it within a week of doing the update.
B). Plan on doing a full restore, taking the appropriate precautions such as cloning / backing up, etc...Hopefully you'll be presently surprised and won't need to restore.
C). Monitor the support discussions for at least a week before doing the update.... patients is a sign of wisdom. "Fools rush in where angles fear to tread"...
D). Set energy saver (system preferences) not to engage, then Run all other mac and 3rd party software updates
E). Download the required update from apples support downloads. Important: if it is a OS update, ALWAYS download and install the "combo" updater. It contains additional fixes, etc. that the regular update does not, and that you may have missed. Always download major updates, do not use the OS auto updater (various reasons).
F). Reboot, and using Disk Utility, verify the target disk, and repair permissions.
G). Repair preferences and run OSX Cocktail (both are free, google them for download sites)
H). Reboot, Run Diskwarrior ($100 from alsoft.com)
I). Run Drive Genius repair utility ($99 prosoftengineering.com)
J). Reboot, Run Drive Genius defrag utility
K). Reboot, Run Disk Warrior again
L). Boot into "safe mode" by holding down the shift key while restarting. (this disables any 3rd party software, virus software, etc. that very often causes failures during major intalls / upgrades).
M). Install your update from the previously downloaded update file (item E, above).
N). Reboot, and perform items D, F, G, H, I, J, K again.
Hope this helps!
Your Pragmatic Apple Fan

Hi Kappy, thanks for weighing in. Hope all is well with you. With regard to using software updater. I choose not to use this feature for major updates because it eliminates another external variable which has potential to cause a problem with the download and installation process (e.g. LANs, WANs, etc.). The download and install process becomes one while a "hick-up" in either can cause problems. Circumnavigating the software updater allows me more control. I also always choose to use the combo updater because, while it includes integral updates that are suppose to be found in the singular updaters, I assume that the code for the combo updaters is written subsequent to the singular updaters and thereby, in effect, supersedes the previously released updates. I do not, however lay claim to knowledge of Apple software team's configuration control protocols. I would assume that they have many similarities to the Configuration Control/Management. procedures I use, DoD MIL-STD 973 / ANSI-EIA 649. Knowing this, there is undoubtedly some degree of fallibility, however minute. Additionally, I would also assume that using a combo updater serves to possibly "reset" certain system settings / code, that may have become corrupted over time. Stemming from this rational, is my preference to always use the combo updater; not required, but preferential. I will say though, I never suffer the problems codified in these forums by other users, with respect to installation problems. I must conclude this is due to the aforementioned protocols I follow. However, I always remain open to your suggestions and instructions as they have served myself and others quite well over the years.
Take care Kappy, and good to hear from you again.
Respectfully,
John

SAP ECC6.0 installation with Oracle RAC

Hi Expert,
Current we working on SAP ECC6.0 installation with Oracle 10G RAC on AIX 5.3. The RAC are running on two nodes (servers). And we are using GPFS filesystem (not running on HACMP).
Overall we had completed the Oracle RAC installation (CRS+RDBMS) and tested the oracle failover and it work find. Now we want to start with the SAP installation (with HA). In the SAP installation documentation, it did request to create a virtual hostname on the node and execute the sapinst scripts with below command line.
#./sapinst SAPINST_USE_HOSTNAME=ascs00
But if we are running on Oracle RAC + GPFS do we need to specify the virtual hostname? If not, which hostname i should use to install the HA for SAP? Please advice.
Regards.

And then I'd continue with the documentation at:
SAP on Oracle => SAP on Oracle Real Application Clusters (RAC)
There you can find several installation guides for windows/UNIX/Linux
