Solved: Choosing Central Component Host or Distribued

Hi Dear friends,

I would have prefer to in install our demo system on a central component host mode and not on a distributed mode. But there is a step where the system is asking me the Migration Export Media which I do not have. How do you solve this problem ?

Tkx for your help.

As i'm say before you trying the System Copy, not the installation ..

For installation you can choose the

"SAP Systems" and after for central system :

<SAP system> SAP Systems <Database> Central System

If you can't see this "SAP Systems" it means

you have wrong DVD (for 32 bit version) or you have wrong Windows (not 64 bit)

check with "systeminfo" command in cmd.

Hi Sergo,

As i'm say before you trying the System Copy, not the installation ..

For installation you can choose the

"SAP Systems" and after for central system :

<SAP system> SAP Systems <Database> Central System

If you can't see this "SAP Systems" it means

you have wrong DVD (for 32 bit version) or you have wrong Windows (not 64 bit)

check with "systeminfo" command in cmd.

I ve check my system, seems like I have a x64 which 64 bit I guess.

The DVD I m using is named "SAP SOLUTIO MANAGER 7.0

Installation Master

within whcih I can find the path beginning with

SAP Installation Mater, then SAP Solution Manager 4.0 Support Release 4

and under this I have Standalone & Software Life Cycle Options

No where I have the path you re talking.

Do I have the wrong DVD ?

Tkx for your help

We are based in Cameroon and trying to do things. Please help. No resource here, it s complicated. I can give a call if needed.

Tkx again.

Check if under Standalone the options are available, it must be a path for your database -> Central System -> Central System Installation.

Regards,

Ayax

I do not have this path.

Under Standalone Engine, I have Solution Manager Diagnostic Agent, and under this I have Solution Manager Diagnostics Agent Installation

You need for 64 bit this version (depends for your hardware) -->

51033517_13 SOLMAN 7.0 Installation Master Windows Server on x64 64bit

51033517_12 SOLMAN 7.0 Installation Master Windows Server on IA64 64bit

as i can understand you have wrong :-->

51033517_11 SOLMAN 7.0 Installation Master Windows Server on IA32 32bit

P.S. if you have DVD not downloaded, all this are included in this DVD

(check by lable 51033517) only you need it navigate to rigth sapinst.exe (post the content of DVD where you open it, if you can't find rigth place) ...

Regards.

Hi Sergo,

Tkx for your help.

You re right. I have a 51033517. But I do not know whether it is

51033517_13

51033517_12 or

51033517_11

How can I check my DVD before requesting the right DVD.

Will it imply that some other DVD need to be changed ?

Regards

MMA

Sergo,

I did a systeminfo command on my svr and I had something like X86-based PC (x86 family 15 Model 65 stepping AuthenticAMD.

Based on that can one knows whether my PC is 32bits or 64bits ?

Hi my friend,

I ve just navigate and I have 3 choice :

1- IM_WINDOWS_I386

2- IM_WINDOWS_IA64

3- IM_WINDOWS_X86_64

I can only open the first one : IM_WINDOWS_I386

For the other one, the system says it is for another type of computer.

Tkx for your help.

Your server are 32 bit, try to check also --> rigth click on "My computer" --> " Properties"

If you have 64 bit you will lijke :

Microsoft Windows 2003 (release)

x64 Edition

If you have 32 bit you will not see the "x64 Edition "

How you want install SAP??

You can not even determine that your system ....

Regards.

It seems like the DVD automatically detect the type of config you have in your system and then propose the menu that match. Then the menu I have is the one I just indicated previously.

It seems like the propblem I have is a communication issue between Port 21200 & 21212 as I have the foloowing error message.

Please check the following information for the possibble reason

I'm stoping to answering in this thread, you absolutely not read what i'm wrote ...

Hi Sergo,

Do not be upset. I m just trying to find out your direct answer to my issue.

1- Am I using the right path ?

2- If not (as I only have the menu shown previously and I m using the right DVD 51033517), where is the right path ?

3- Then is it because of 32bits or 64bit I m not having the path leading to INSTALL instead of COPY ?

4- Here is what my system check is showing me

SAPinst GUI

Version : 701.06.3

Run Mode : Client/Server

SAPInst Host: localHost

SAPinst Port : 21200

GUI Port : 21212

5- So When I m installing (do not reaaly know if I m installing as I may not have the right path) or copying (the one I have), I have the following error :
