SolMan and NetWeaver together in an only system?

[Former Member]

Hi!

Although I have administered R/3 by eight years, I am taking my first steps in installation of NetWeaver. That is to say, I am newbie and I will thank for the aid of you.

For an installation of BI's evaluation (IT scenario: Enterprise Data

Warehousing), I need to know if it is possible to install Solution

Manager 4.0 SR2 and NetWeaver 2004s SR2 in the same server. Or, on the

contrary, if it is imperative that SolMan is installed in another

server(another system), separately of NetWeaver.

It is necessary to clarify that the principal target of this exercise

is to evaluate BI's possibilities; counting, for it, with an only server

and knowing full well that the performance it will be degraded.

For this particular case, SolMan would play the role of pre-requisite and

generator of the key that will allow us to continue with NetWeaver's

installation.

Finally, after a short period, the installation will discard, since,

parallelly, it continues in progress the real project of migration of our

R/3 systems, and BI's installation in the definitive landscape.

Best Regards.

Hi Gustavo,

first of all - Solution Manager 4.0 SR2 is based on NetWeaver 2004s SR2.

So generally it should be possible to install the Solution Manager and then install the Usage Type Business Intelligence into the existing NetWeaver system. Both, BI and SolMan use the ABAP and JAVA Stack, so performance would not be impacted that much.

For testing this should be ok anyway.... Do a search in SMP if you can find any note about any incompatabilities between BI and SolMan (SolMan actually is a "CRM light" system).

Hth,

Michael
