Using Remote SQL for NW Installation

Former Member

Hi All,

I am planning to Install SAP EHP1 for NW 7.3. I want to use the existing MSSQL Database whch is present in the different server.

Is that possible to use that?

When I am trying for Installing through"Standard System" it is showing the local Instance and If DB exist it showing as already the DB exist.

It's showing "you can only chose local instance in this Installation type" as below.

Can any one tell me what type of Installation I have to choose to perform the Installation with pointing the remote MSSQL Instance?

Regards

Hi,

It should be a "distributed" one because you have your database on different host an application on different one.

HI All,

Thanks..for you reply.

Actually I have Installed NW in "server1" and it created DB "DN1". Is that I can use the same DB "DN1" for Installing the new NW in "server2"?

If yes let me know what should I do?

Hi

1. If the DB host running on different host, In you installation steps you have to select "Distributed SAP  system Installation"

2. If the DB on Same host - check the MS SQl Server running on the same host

Hi SS,

In the distributed system we have "SCS,PAS and DB instance" . Is that we have to install all the three?
