STEP 11: Finding Device > To load the driver [OK] or [Cancel] to continue.
STEP 12: Installation Settings. There are two settings that must be changed.
STEP 14: Choose the third option Create custom partition setup.
STEP 17: Partitioning screen displays. Setup /dev/hda1 File system to ext3 and
Mount Point to / Setup /dev/hda2 File system toswap Click OK and Next to
continue.
STEP 18: Back to Installation Settings and select Booting > Boot Loader
Setup. Boot Loader Type: You can select either GRUB or LILO. Here we
choose LILO.
STEP 19: Warning message appears after changing the settings. Choose
Propose New Configuration.
STEP 20: Boot Loader Setup > Select Boot Loader Location and click Edit.
Choose Boot Sector of Boot Partition /dev/hda1.
STEP 24: First entry after installation will show some device finding
screen, to install press Continue, or press Skip to exit.
In the main YaST screen select Accept and then Ok in the dialog with the automatic changes
list.
Next, you should set up a couple of configuration files that will be needed by for running
NetWeaver properly.
The easy to use pico editor is now installed and we are going to use it to edit the temporary
filesystem value in file /etc/sysconfig/kernel
pico /etc/sysconfig/kernel
Find the SHMFS_SIZE variable and set it to
SHMFS_SIZE ="1G"
Press Ctrl-X to exit pico, press Y to save changes and Enter to confirm the file path.
The next file that you need to edit is the network interface configuration file and doing this
will help avoiding a problem that the NetWeaver server would have after the first system
restart.
Because the NetWeaver setup script edits an obsolete network configuration script(from
SUSE 9.0/9.1), unless you do this, after the first post-install system reboot NetWeaver will
fail to start if the file is not edited.
The file can be found in the /etc/sysconfig/network folder and is named using the convention
ifcfg-eth-id-your network cards MAC address In order to edit this configuration file and
remove the obsolete one, use the commands:
cd /etc/sysconfig/network
ls
pico ifcfg-eth-id-your network cards MAC address
Note: If you have more than one network card, there will be more than one configuration file.
If that is the case, use the command ifconfig to find out the MAC addresses of the network
cards in your system and pick the configuration file that is named using the MAC address of
the eth0 card.
At the end of the configuration file, append following lines:
IPADDR_0='195.155.155.1'
NETMASK_0='255.255.255.0'
LABEL_0=0
Next, assign the hostname nw4host to the 195.155.155.1 IP address in the /etc/hosts file:
cd /etc/
pico hosts
At the end of the file, append the following line:
195.155.155.1 nw4host
Save the file and type the command
reboot
The reboot is needed to reinitialize the temporary filesystem size you have edited earlier and
will also initialize the new IP address for the eth0 network interface.
Next, you should create the NetWeaver Testdrive ISO from the part files.
After booting, if you haven't already downloaded the NetWeaver ISO part files, do it now.
Create a directory for the kit files, I'll call it SAPKIT.
mkdir /SAPKIT
cd /SAPKIT
Downloading can be easily done using the command wget:
wget ftp://ftp.sap.com/pub/linuxlab/test_drive/NW4/i386/NW4_TestDrive.iso_Part_aa
...and so on to ae.
If you already have the files on a Windows system and you don't know how to mount
Windows shares, you can either read a tutorial on that or transfer them from the Windows
If you are using PlatinGUI, add a new connection, go to the Advanced tab and check "Use
expert configuration". Enter a connection string like conn=/H/your NW servers IP
address/S/3200&expert=true
If you are using the Windows SAPGUI, enter your servers IP address in the Application
Server field, System Id SCS and System Number 00.
Once you have succesfully connected, log in with the user SAP* and password SAPSTAR.
4. Enabling BW functionality
Save your new client, end your current session and log on to the new client, with user SAP*,
password pass.
Start transaction SCCL Client Copy. Select the following: Profile SAP_ALL, Source Client
000 and Source Client User Masters 000, then click on Schedule as Background Job.
Check Start Immediately in the next screen and then click on Continue. The client copy job
has now started and is running in the background, you can check the Job Status using
transaction SCC3.
After the copy process is finished, you must assign BW to client 001.
Start transaction SE16 Data Browser and enter the RSADMINA table name.
Select BW in the CUSTOMIZID field and Execute(press F8)
In the next screen, select the table row and click on Change(press F6).
Enter 001 in the BWMANDT field and Save(press CTRL+S).
Start transaction SU01 User Maintenance. Enter the user name BWUSER and click on
Create.
In the Defaults tab, set the User Start Menu RS00_BW. In the Roles tab, select the
SAP_BW_ALL role. In the Profiles tab, select S_RS_ALL and SAP_ALL. Save the user,
and log in as BWUSER on client 001.
You will be asked if you wish to replicate metadata, select Only Activate.
BW is now functional and the BW Administrator Workbench will load.
You may also want to remove the SAP_ALL profile of the BWUSER user, by accessing
transaction SU01.
Congratulations, you have finished installing the 32 bit Linux Testdrive of SAP Netweaver
2004 and enabled BW functionality !
