Trying to install the PI 7.0 or 7.1 before the key expires. But, it (PI) has to be integrated to the Solution Manager (set to expire in 3 weeks). Just wanted to be sure that I will still be able to install PI 7.0 or PI 7.1 OK - that no problems would be encountered when generating licenses, keys, etc.
Also, I know that this is off the main question: Would it be better to install PI 7.0 or PI 7.1? From what I could see, PI 7.1 required a kernel of 7.1 (?) and even a SAPGUI of 7.1(?) Everything seemed to require that 7.1 be utilized...
Finally, why is it not OK to install PI and EP on the same box? I would think that if one had different SIDs (that had different system numbers), that all would be OK.

You can generate the keys already NOW if you have the data (hostname, SID, systemnumber).

how so? What do you want to "integrate"?

SAPGUI 7.10 is the standard, 6.40 is out of support already.

Yes - but from a maintenance point of view it can be very difficult and complicated. PI is ABAP + Java, EP is Java so you will need to manange with memory and resources. If your PI will need CPU power your EP will suffer and vice versa.

My understanding is that the PI will need a key from Soln. Manager in order to work ...

OK, I just checked I do have SAPGUI 7.10 - but - one has to deal with different kernel version 7.1 and also, it seemed as though one needed a different JAVA version as well. The goal was to install everything on the same box. So, it would be interesting to have one version of JAVA for the EP (or ECC 6.0 IDES) and another version for the PI 😐 Of course, it could be done ...

This is for testing. The thought is to have 8GB for memory. 1TB of disk space.
MCOD DB setup for for EP & PI while ECC 6.0 with an Oracle database of its own.

Yes - at installation time you will be requested to enter the key - once. After that you could shutdown SolMan.

Yes - sure.

8 GB? This is VERY few memory even for ERP alone. Imagine: the Java proceses will allocate heap exclusively and you have to give memory to the database.
All on the same box 😐 and a Linux OS.
Es macht Sinn - oder?
VIEL zu wenig Memory - the machine will be mainly busy with swapping.
Calculate:
PI:
Database 1 GB
Java Server: 2 GB
ABAP: 2 GB
Dispatcher + SDM 500 MB
ERP:
Database 1 GB
ABAP: 2 GB
EP:
Database 1 GB
Java Server 2 GB
Dispatcher + SDM 500 MB
This is already more than 8 GB...
Be aware that with this config the machine will just do I/O, don´t expect to have response times below 5 - 6 seconds.

Vielen dank fur Ihre Hilfe ..
Leider, verstehe ich was Sie geschrieben haben. 😐
There is a need to re-evaluate the location of the software - unless there is some way to get 2 8GB sticks of memory on an Intel 64-bit box ...
Zu viele spass!
Will see what happens ..
Danke nochmals,
Casey
PS: Entschuldigung ..
Leider, habe ich keine Geld (Punkten) um Sie zu bezahlen.
