How to add Abab stack to exiting Java stack

[Former Member]

Hi All,

I am having a netweaver Java Stack installed on my system. I would like to install XI - in order to install Xi ,I guess the system should be ABAP + Java. But since I am having java based engine, I would like to add ABAP stack to it. So, my question how to add an ABAP stack to already existing JAVA/J2ee engine.

So what this process is known as-- Is it upgrading or New Installation. Because I need the guide and CD's for it.

Can any one tell me which Guide(Install/upgrade/Master) wud help me.

Thanks

A new installation would be the recommended solution. For guides, visit

Samuel & Prateek,

Thanks for the reply. I wanna install XI 3.0 SR1 on NW-04 (which has java based engine). So do u recommened me to install a another instance of netweaver(ABAP+JAVA) and then istall XI on it.

Cant I directly add abap stack to NW04.

Is it mandatory to have a NW(Abap+Java), inoder to install XI.

Yes.

If you have the XI installation file, you will find that it is much easy to make a complete installation that thinking about adding some stack later.

Hello

If you are adding XI 7.1 check this page: http://service.sap.com/~form/sapnet?_SHORTKEY=01100035870000702775&_SCENARIO=01100035870000000202&;

If you are adding XI 7.0 check this one: http://service.sap.com/~form/sapnet?_SHORTKEY=01100035870000659894&_SCENARIO=01100035870000000202&;

You should read the master guides and install the new usage type on top of your current installation but check the SAP notes about it first.

If what you want is to install XI 3.0, that is if you have an existing v6.40 java stack, I think the operation is not recommended/supported by SAP, you should install a separate instance.

Hope it helps.
