This is another Sap installation experience. This is regarding SAP BI 7. In this article I will try to narrate and elaborate as much as my time, enthusiasm and knowledge permit with a fair amount of screenshots. Fellow SAP Basis consultants hope will admire such a ready available digest kinda material. I have installed the BI 7 on Linux platform, and the Linux distro is SLES 10 SP2.
Here is my experience on installation of ECC6. This is better to admit that, SAP and its installation over SLES 10 SP2. I am writing this experience here, as how I did it…
Although I don’t want any technical / functional debates and won’t mind to receive any suggestion from any reader. My approach of doing the same was like chalk down the requirements, gathering the requirements, doing installation, backing up installation, testing and final release.
In my earlier article on ECC 6 installation I already wrote and discussed how to do the same on server hardware with an external storage box (e.g. IBM DS4700), hence no point of recapitulating the same. You can find the same here (Installation of ECC6. – An Experience itself) for easy reference, if at all you require.
So here I will start with the SAP media required for BI 7 installation. Although the list will have lot of things in common as in my other article for Installation of ECC6. – An Experience itself but it is required here to make this page a complete. Please go thru the following list of SAP media requirement for the installation.
