How to install multiple Central Instances on the same physical machine

[Former Member]

Hi,

Please let me know the procedure to install multiple Central Instances of SAP NetWeaver on the same physical machine (Windows Server).

Searched in Forum but could not find specific pointers.

Thanks and Regards,

Raj,

What questions do you have? This is a supported prodcedure with an SAP NW04s/WAS 7.0 install. Follow the install guide and just choose different SID and System Number combinations when performing the installation. That will distinguish your instances.

You need to make sure your server has the horsepower to support multiple instances. NW will eat up memory and CPU. You should be running an x64 OS with lots of memory.
