Can different cluster of SAP Business One installed on the same Server

[Former Member]

Hi!

Can anyone tell me if B1 different cluster version installed and run on the same server. Example B1 2005A AND B1 2005B. If it can, could you please include the procedure how can it be done.

Thanks,

Jo Borlagdan

No, A and B have different patch cycles - so there would be conflicts in SBO-Common. Therefore it will not work.

You could try to workaround that with named instances of MSSQL, but installation & update would need additional care + workarounds.

The best way to combine 2 SAP Business One cluster "servers" but still on one hardware would be to use a tool like VMWare... - but such a configuration has not been released by SAP - i.e. if there's an issue that could be traced back to the VMWare system, SAP might not be (li?)able to fix it

Sorry,

Frank

BTW: Please note that you need to think eventually about conflicts with MS licenses. SAP has an agreement with MS which ASFAIK covers the license for 1 VMWare Windows system on 1 Windows PC so that we can use WMWare for SAP Business One sandbox systems - after RAM upgrades () it works fine...

Hi,

We are using VMWare with different versions of SBO installed for almost 2 years now. It works great!
