Hi

1. For finding the instance number you can use the <b>BRTOOLS</b>. In that you can view the instance number in instance management.

2. Logon to the SAP NetWeaver Portal with

<b>http://<portal_host>:<port>/irj.</b>

Remember to change <host> and <port> with the name of your machine.

3. No need to install the SAP GUi to start the portal.

If you need some more clarification please lemme know.

I could not find <b>BRTOOLS</b>.

How to find that?

Hi

To find the BRTOOLS, go to command prompt type in brtools. You should be logged in as ora<sid> user to run the tool as it has the necessary authorizations.

cmd>brtools

OR

1. >brtools

Depending on your OS.

Getting following error:

> brtools

brtools: Command not found.

> id

uid=210(sqdvan) gid=201(sapsys) groups=1(staff),202(sdba)

> where brtools

> find . -name "brtools"

> su root

root's Password:

1. id

uid=0(root) gid=0(system) groups=2(bin),3(sys),7(security),8(cron),10(audit),11(lp)

1. brtools

ksh: brtools: not found.

1. tcsh

2. brtools

brtools: Command not found.

Hi

Login using <b>ora<sid></b> user to access the BRTOOLS <b>not the ROOT user</b>.

For running BRTOOLS you gotta login using the ora<sid> user

If you are logged in using root type the following commands:

1. su - <b>ora<sid></b>

1. brtools

This will work.
