install webdispatcher and and install webdispatcher as a service

[Former Member]

Experts:

We always do both at the same time, i.e.install webdispatcher and and install webdispatcher as a service.

However, what is the reason to do it in 2 steps? Why it cannot be done the same way as NW700: the service

is created during the install of the instance?

Thanks a lot!

Hi Christy,

It depends on How you are installing WebDispatcher.

1). If you use BootStrap method, or just uncar wdispadmin.sar file then yes you have to install WebDispatcher and service as two steps because this is manual installation.

Where as, if you use SAPINST, it will take care of Installation of WebDispatcher and Service, though it two steps it merges to one using SAPINST.

Thank,s
