We are currently running the following landscapes
Netweaver BI 7..0 on windows 2003 , sql 2005,
ECC 6.0 on windows 2003, sql 2005
SAP Portal 7 on windoes 2003 , sql 2005
And would like to plan the migration to windows 2008, sql 2008 IE 7.0
I just wanted to get some feedback regarding if someone has already done this and how you all went about to upgrade? Issues you encountered, things to avoid, all that good stuff
Without doing much research yet, and having just completed the migration from 32bit OS to 64bit and sql 2000 to sql 2005, I had to perform a NEW install of SAP on parallel servers , export from 32bit and import to 64bit servers
When we upgrade to windows 2008 and sql 2008, will we ALSO require to do a NEW install of SAP? just like what I just finished?
Please advise?
Regards & Thank You in Advance

Hi Maria
In addition to the above, also check the SAP Note 1294591 - Support SQL 2008 (DM)

hi
SQL server 2008 is very well supported on Windows server 2003
Please refer http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms143506.aspx
Also refer to http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb677622.aspx for upgrading SQL server 2005
There will be no complications as such

Hello Maria,
Refer to http://www.microsoft.com/sqlserver/2008/en/us/upgrade.aspx
Also you can refer to SAP guide for database upgrade to SQL server 2008 ,just go to the followng link
http://service.sap.com/instguides --> Other Documentation --> Database Upgrades --> MS SQL Server
Hope it helps

Also according to note 125970, Triggers on SAP tables
that generally SAP does not support any triggers on SAP ABAP appication tables in SQL Server
The custom code must be modified such a way that the affected row count is not written to the client. This is done by using
set nocount on
as the first command in the trigger.
I assume this will only effect only custom code... and not code delivered by SAP
Hi
There are some bugs in SQL server 2008 and for that there is package Cumulative update package 2 for SQL Server 2008 which you need to apply
Please refer to :
