Hi,

You cannot use domain name to install SAP system. You have to reduce number of characters from hostname.

Thanks

Hi,

Please open the sapinst and there you can see an option "Additional options" or software lifecycle options" last option you can see the option to uninstall.

Use that option to remove the installations done so far.

Hope it helps.

Thanks and Regards,

Vimal

Hi Sap,

You can go through the above sapnote.
