STORAGE SIZING - running R/3 ECC 9 yrs - how to estimate NW2004s 7.0 need

Does anyone have some metrics they use when determining storage requirements if one were to plan on installing almost all of the NW2004s product suite.
Example ---
<u>BACKGROUND DATA</u>
We've been running ECC 5.0 (previously 3.1H, 4.6C) for 9 years.
Total "PRD" storage usage for ECC = 1.5tb
Total storage available in our environment = 8.6tb
We traditionally have an additional 2 full copies of PRD data for QA/TST etc.
% of PRD storage use against total available = 17.4% (1.5tb/8.6tb)
Our ECC 5.0 grows approximately 350gb per year (with archiving active)
<u>FUTURE STATE</u>
We plan to implemnt BI, CRM, SCM, SRM, MDM, KM, XI, APO
Need to plan out 3 yrs storage requirements for these additional components.
Yes, we realize "IT DEPENDS" but need to make some assumptions and put a stake in the ground.
Does anyone have some storage metics where
CRM storage = x% of R/3 storage
BI storage = x% of R/3 storage
SCM = x% of R/3 storage
SRM = x% of R/3 storage
etc.
Any feedback is greatly appreciated......
Regards

Hello Doreen!
Yes, it DOES depend...
CRM etc.: No idea. We dont have them.
BI 7.0 starts with some 30 GB (new system) and grows into infinity, depending on the creativity and detail requirements of your BI people. Can be much larger than production ERP data, we hear. My tipp: Always keep HUGE room to grow for the BI database, the increments are not by hundreds of MB, but by dozens of GB, if you are lucky... And our guy did never tell when they began to load a new cube...
Buying storage for 3 years seems a bit long for me, as disk sizes double so often... Our collegues are now migrating out the 36 GB drives they put in in 2002, and 72 GB are the next ones to go. And the 600's are ante portas...
What storage system do you have?
Server sizing: Dont ask me. We alwas had luck to take it one size larger than "they" sized. But that depends on your workload growth rates.
HTH, Rudi

  • I haven't done an update since 24.0 because my computer is running out of memory. How much MORE memory will I need to get up to version 28.0?

    I haven't done an update since 24.0 because my computer is running out of memory. How much MORE memory will I need to get up to version 28.0?
    My computer is really old.
    It is running out of memory.
    I haven't done a firefox update since 24.0 because I think it will explode my computer.
    I see that v28.0 takes 200MB.
    How much more is this than what is already loaded for my v24.0?
    Will it just add the extra pieces, or will it require a free block of 200MB (which my computer does not have)?
    I don't want to crash and lockup my computer because I try to install something that is too big for the remaining memory.
    Thanks.

    You should updated to Firefox 28, Firefox updates don't take any new space they just replace the existing files.
    There are some things you can do to clean up your hard drive to free up space however, http://arstechnica.com/civis/viewtopic.php?p=21178060 and http://support.microsoft.com/kb/956324, also uninstall programs you don't use anymore and delete files you don't need anymore.
    You should also start saving up for a new machine, Windows XP is being dropped from support by Microsoft in a few days, which means it will no longer be safe to use on the internet.

  • How to run sgen in ecc 6.0 ehp4 ides

    Dear Experts
    What is the procedure to run sgen in ecc 6.0 ehp4 ides system to speed up the transaction response. Approximately how much time it takes to complete with 2GB RAM and AMD 64bit processor.
    Thanks
    Raj

    Hi Raj,
    You need to run SGEN on the main Server and refresh the memory buffers
    on the application servers if its required but I assume this is
    automatically performed anyway so as the program buffers, PXA,
    are all in sync.
    ========================================================================
    From the tcode itself here is the info. on Parallel Generation
    2.  Select Server for Parallel Generation.
    The generation is based on a parallelized method, where the generation
    set is divided into small subsets that are processed by parallel process
    Depending on resources, available servers are included in the parallel
    processing, whereby multiple parallel processes run on one server.
    From the Selection of Server for Parallel Generation screen, you can
    select the servers that are to be used in the parallel processing.
    Note that loads depend on the machine type (MT) of a host.
    This means that it only makes sense to parallel process the
    generation set of servers of the same machine type.
    The default selection orientates itself by the server to which it
    is logged on. It corresponds to your logon server and all servers
    on your system that have the same machine type. If you want to use
    the default selection, choose Continue.
    If you want to exclude individual servers from the generation, or
    if you want to generate the load for a particular machine type
    that is different to that of the logon server, then use the
    pushbutton to select the corresponding servers and choose Continue.
    Note: The parallel servers are depicted via the logon groups in
    transaction RZ12. For transaction SGEN, logon group 'parallel_generators
    is created. Do not use this group for your own purposes, as transaction
    SGEN uses and continually redefines this group.
    From the selection of the servers, the system starts to automatically
    define the generation set, and to store it on the database
    (DB table GENSETC).
    This may take several minutes.
    ========================================================================
    Thank You.
    Regards,
    Deepika

  • Storage Space Running on my Pantech Marauder

    I have a Pantech Marauder and lately the storage space running icon shows up on top and when I go to the drop down menu, it reads, "some system functions may not...." and that's all I can read. How do I go about resolving this issue. Thank you.

    welcome..you can also delete them and prevent them from occurring to free up space if you really need it: open terminal, copy and paste "sudo tmutil disablelocal" without the quotes and hit enter and you will see the storage free up immediately.

  • I want to give away or sell a 6500/250 running 7.6.1. How can the hard disk be erased so that the data are gone, not recoverable? thanks, LifeisRich

    I'd recommend that you check for Mac User Group(s) in Orange County.  That's where you'd likely find a diehard Mac fanatic who might want to add your 6500 to his/her collection.  Even if you got nothing for it, it would be better than e-cycling it.  I upgraded my 6500/275 with what was a "large" hard drive at the time (15 GBs), maxed the memory at 128 MBs, installed the 512K L2 cache card, a better ATI Rage Pro PCI graphics card, a USB PCI card, and an internal 56K modem.  With it running OS 9.1, it did all of the pre-OS X stuff I needed it to do.  As I previously mentioned, it's a nice-sounding MP3 player.  Internet Explorer 5.1.7 (the final release from 2001) kept it useful for surfing the web up until 2005, when it became too outdated/incompatible with many web sites.  Unfortunately, the demands of the internet and the need for a modern browser, as well as faster processing to digest it all, are what retired many older Macs from active duty.  So my (2) 6500s and (3) 6400s (same tower design) sit in storage.  There is one concern that I'll pass along: The motherboard has a 4.5-volt alkaline battery, that's a small, black plastic cube, secured in place by velcro.  If your 6500 has been disconnected from electricity for a long time, the battery will undoubtedly be dead.  Unlike the many Apple computers that used a small ½AA lithium battery (that I've never seen leak when completely dead), the 6500's battery can and usually does start leaking.  Because the motherboard sits vertically oriented on its side edge when installed, the leaking battery will drip alkaline solution down the board, corroding any components in it path.  I've seen motherboards ruined from this.  If you're going to give it away or sell it, you might want to pull the motherboard (remove the two machine screws on the rear I/O panel, next to the pull tabs).  Slide out the board and unplug the battery's small connector (has red & black wires), then lift up on the battery, while holding down the "toothed" velcro mount with something non-conductive, like a popsicle stick.  Once it's free, dispose of the battery.  If you're interested, a replacement can be purchased for about $5-$7 from battery specialty retailers - it's a Rayovac 870 or 871.  Even if you don't replace it, removing one that will eventually leak is a good idea, (hopefully) before any damage is done.

    There is no 500GB iCloud storage plan, 20, 200 or 1000 are the available plans.

  • ITunes will no longer download. It says it has not been correctly localized for this language, and to run the English version. How do I do that?

    My iTunes will no longer download.
    All of a sudden I get the message "This version of iTunes has not been correctly localized for this language. Please run the English version".
    How do I fix this and run the English version again? .

    Start by trying to repair iTunes from the programs and features control panel.
    Otherwise, for general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

  • Running Mac 10.4.11, now I updated to Firefox 4 and it will no longer open, stating that it will not run on my mac. How do I get back to what I had?

    My firefox was running fine until I was prompted to upgrade to Firefox 4. I did so and now when I try to open, I get a message window saying I cannot run firefox on the mac I'm now running (10.4.11). How to I get back to the version of firefox I was running?

    Firefox 4 requires at least OS X 10.5 and an Intel Mac.
    * http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/4.0/system-requirements/
    For an unofficial Firefox 4 compatible version (TenFourFox) that runs on PowerPC Macs with OS X 10.4.11 or OS X 10.5.8 you can look at:

    Use the Toshiba recovery disk or the Toshiba HDD recovery option.
    If you dont have the Toshiba Recovery disk try the HDD recovery:
    http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD1303440001R01.htm
    This works only if the recovery image files from Toshiba are still on the HDD:
    If you installed the system using another disk as Toshiba recovery disk, this recovery option will not work.

    I have sort of the exact same problem. Extremely far away from user friendly
    I have an second issue as well: When I hook off all-day it comes up with an 8 hour event!
    And then if I put in a late start hour it pushes end time to next day due to the 8 hour event suggestion.
    All in all this gives a lot of changes just to enter an event.
    Command N
    I learnt from your input to use this fuction. At least that comes up with a one hour event as default.

    Be sure to make a Backup of your Current System Before Upgrading...
    Also... Check here for compatibility of 3rd party Software you may be using... Also note that Rosetta is no longer supported in Lion.
    http://roaringapps.com/apps:table
    You should also consider more RAM... Lion is a hungry beast...
    You can use these Links to check which RAM is suitable for your Mac...

    The last 12 months' worth can be obtained via your on-line MyVerizon account; look under View Bill and use the drop-down to select the appropriate bill.  Anything prior to the past 12 months would need to be obtained via Customer Service; there is a charge (I believe $5 per copy, but I'm not sure).
