HI,

The key information for sizing is the number and the size of messages the Integration Engine has to process in a given scenario.

The sizing model is based on the following preconditions:

- We only consider “direct communication”. Possible local proxy servers tunneling messages to and from the Integration Servers are not considered.

- We assume that data is persisted twice, once for each of two asynchronous steps (the data is initially persisted after it is received and then again after processing). If data is persisted more than twice (for example, for debugging purposes), more disk space will be required.

- The measurements are calculated against an average CPU consumption of 70% (see the general sizing procedure at SAP1).

- The sizing guidelines do not include additional requirements caused by data archiving, data deletion or reorganization.

- Sizing is for SAP Web Application Server 6.40.

- Processing by the Adapter Framework is taken into account.

Quick Sizer (http://service.sap.com/quicksizing). The sizing guidelines include an initial and an advanced sizing based on different possible scenario definitions.

All you need to create a sizing project is a valid SAP customer number and access to the Service Marketplace

sizing is framing of the hardware req for runnning SAP. in XI you wuld normally define the size of the message handeled for async and sync interface. If the number of incoming message is farmore than expected then we can gofor a sizing but this is normally planned during the installation of xi...i think post installation.

check this for sizing procedure

check the quicksizer tool. You can find it under <a href="http://service.sap.com/quicksizer">http://service.sap.com/quicksizer</a>

and it provides you an approximate idea of how your machine should look like depending on the amount of messages exchanged and the size of these.
