Solman 7 EHP1 on 32 bit windows - DB2 9.1.5 UDB for LUW

[Former Member]

I was referring to the installation document for Solution Manager EHP1

labelled "Installation GuideSAP Solution Manager 7.0 including SAP

Enhancement Package 1 on Windows : IBM DB2 for Linux, UNIX, and Windows"

The document version is 1.10 dated 2009-04-30.

It is understood from the - 'Part 1.1 New features' section that the

Installation of Solution Manager EHP1 supports only 64 bit Windows

platforms for all instances and 32bit only for dialog instances. Please

let me know then why does it show Windows 2003 32 bit is supported

in the 'Product availability matrix' at service.sap.com/pam.

Kindly let me know asap, if 32 bit platforms is supported at all for

Sol Man EHP1. We want to install the default ABAP+Java stack for Solman 7 EHP1.

32 bit supports only the NW SR1 and SR2, but from SR3, only 64 bit support is there.

For more information on SRs, refer the following Note

SAP Note 774615 - Support Package levels of ERP/ECC installations/upgrades

I guess, for Solman 7.0 upto some SP, it used to support intallations on win32, but for EhP1 now it supports only 64 bit. In any case, SAP recommends every new installation now on 64 bit. You have to go for 64 bit.
