Error while performing SAP Installation in HA Env on Windows Server 2008

Hello,
I am performing a SAP Installation in HA Environment on Windows Server 2008. I am at the ASCS installation step.
As per the guide before installing ASCS there are some activities to be carried out on Failover Cluster Management.
I have done all the steps except one as per the guide. I am stuck in the Add FileServer Step. In this step the guide says to go to the Dependencies tab and add the cluster disk resource to the dependencies list. It also says to add the Name:Virtual NetworkName to the dependencies list.
Now in my scenario I have 3 shared drives for SAP and I have added each of them in the dependencies list of the new FileServer. The only problem is how do I add the Name:Virtual NetworkName to this list
When I continue without giving the Network name the system issues a warning "This resource requires dependencies on instances of the following resource types or classes:Network Name. Not adding these dependencies will prevent the resource from working properly. Do you want to save the current settings anyway"
If I click on Yes and bring this resource online it fails with this error message
"The action Bring this resource online did not complete.An error occured while attempting to bring the resource 'SAPECC FileServer online'. The cluster resource could not be brought online by resource monitor."
My question is how to add the Name:VirtualNetworkName to the dependencies list of the FileServer.

Hi,
I have resolved the issue with the help of cluster admin

Running SAP on Microsoft Virtual Servers

Is anyone running SAP on Microsoft Virtual Servers? If so, what has been your experience with this? We are installing NetWeaver 2004s on three virtual servers (running on the same Physical Windows server). We are using the Microsoft Virtual Server software (not VM Ware).
Thanks in advance for any information.

Check Note 674851 - Virtualization on Windows:
VMware, GSX Server, VMware workstation, Microsoft Virtual Server
Due to their restriction to 32-bit, single CPU and host/guest operation, these virtualization products are not suitable for productive SAP applications.
It may be advisable to use one of these products to operate non-production systems (demo systems, test systems, development systems and so on).
I would not use Microsoft Virtual Server for productive installations, additionally, depending on the database used, it may or may not supported by the database vendor and thus also may or may not supported by SAP.
In worst case you will need to reinstall the application on a non-virtualized environment and reproduce a problem there before SAP support will accept the problem.

Need advice for SAP installation on External Hard disk

Hi Gurus,
I have HP laptop with configuration of 512 MB RAM and 50 GB hard disk...i recently bought 250 GB segate external hard disk for SAP installation...My doubt here is if i install SAP in external hard disk and will it work properly if i connect my laptop?
ur advice is much appreciated
Regards
Dinesh

Hi Dinesh,
I have installed SAP on external harddisk.
And it will work properly.
But i think you need to increase your RAM.
After installation, please keep in mind one thing.
You will have to attach your external harddisk before your machine starts, because your OS will be in internal harddisk, so SAP and oracel services won't be able to run without external hard-disk.
and in case you attach after system startup, please start all services.

SAP installation guiengine:No GUI server connected;waiting for connection

Hi All,
I need one help
I am trying to install SAP ECC 6 in Redhat Linux 5 and database oracle
I have installed java 1.4.2_16, I have set the environmental variables also.
But if I start the SAP installation by executing SAPINST , I am facing the below error
guiengine: No GUI server connected; waiting for a connection on host welcome, port 21200 to continue with the installation
I have tried to execute xclock to check it, but its gives the below error
ERROR: canu2019t open display: welcome:0.0
I found that before setting the below display environmental variable, xclock worked good, but after setting the below display environmental variable, I am facing this error
export DISPLAY=hostname:0.0
I searched for this error, some people posted that we have to change the display environmental variable like export DISPLAY=:0, set DISPLAY=:0.0,
I tried it but still facing the same No GUI server connected error.
I hope it will be a problem with display environmental variable and I have no other clues, please help me, Thanks.
Thanks,
Senthil.

What key FI config & tables in an SAP installation a client-wide

Dear Experts,
I from an SAP Procurement background.
We are considering utlising an existing SAP installation/client to deploy and SAP in a entirely new legal entity, that is a subsidurairy of the group company.
What key SAP Finance objects in a client can we not change as this would impact others companies already deployed or cannot not be changed once set-up in a new client?
If we were to choose to simply copy the global template, deploy this in another client, but stil have the ability to conduct intercompany activities with the other group companies in the another client, what are the key elements that we must retain/keep in synch with the group SAP client?
I hope you are able to provide me a very high-level answer.
Thanks,
Sheena

Hi,
Most of financial configuration is company-code dependent. That is, when you want to add additional company code to your project, you can use copy funcitionality, and all the relevant FI configuration will be copied to your new company code. You should only consider the cross-company components, like EC and CO (assuming that you have only basic SAP modules, and not other ones like FM, SEM, etc.). There you have to define to yourself whether this new company will join under the same 'roof' of cross-company objects (Controlling area, etc.) or not.

Eli

TREX 7.0 & 7.1 SAP INSTALLATION GUIDE

Hello Techies,
Can any one Please Send me Trex 7.0 & 7.1 Sap Installation Guides. i dont have SMP accsess
Please send me with in a Hour if possible.
Thanks and Regards,
Pavan

Hi
From service marketplace try downloading the TREX connectivity document for CRM and TREX 6.0 the steps are more or less the same for connectivty between CRM and TREX you need to install TREX in separate box followed by creating the RFC destination between crm and TREX at a time trex can be connected to one RFC destination only example CRM DEV with TREX or CRM QTY with TREX you cannot use TREX with QTY and DEV at the same time .
you also need to do the customiseing settings for enterprise intelligence in CRM5.0 spro settings and use crmc_saftool transaction code for the further settings you can also use TREXADMIN transaction code for the TREX http server queue server and index server logs to check after establishing the connectivity for useing TREX for CRM ABAP stack is required for TREX for EP you need to use java stack for connectivity between the systems
please do reward the points if helpful

Question about SAP installation with Oracle 10g

I have successfully installed Oracle 10g on Windows server 2008 R2 64bit. I can connect to the database using mysql or through command prompt and run SQL commands.
I started installing the SAP EHP1 for SAP NetWeaver 7.0 ("51038620_13 BS 7 SR1 Installation Master Windows Server on x64 64bit") The installation goes very smooth. I choose the SAPSID and the DBSID sid, but then it gives an error stating to install oracle and continue or stop the installation & install Oracle. I have tried on continuing the installation since Oracle is already installed but I get the same message again and again.
Does it have to do with ORACLE 10g Sid. My Oracle SID is set to "ORCL" should it be the same as DBSID (during SAP Installation). Or the Oracle needs to be installed after SAP installation gets to the point for Oracle Installation. Please assist what needs to be changed. I can reinstall Oracle if needed. Any tips or comments would be nice.

> Does it have to do with ORACLE 10g Sid. My Oracle SID is set to "ORCL" should it be the same as DBSID (during SAP Installation). Or the Oracle needs to be installed after SAP installation gets to the point for Oracle Installation.
You can't "change". You installed the Oracle software using "setup.exe" - which is wrong. You also created an example database - which is also not correct.
The Oracle software is installed, according to the installation guide, as
- start "sapserver.cmd" on the Oracle DVD (the SAP media)
- install the software according to the installation guide
- install the latest patchset
- install the latest PSU patch
--> and then start sapinst.
