IDES Installation on XP Pro?

[dietmarstefanon]

Hello,

Is it possible to install mySAP ERP 2005 on a Windows XP Professional OS, or must it be an Windows Server OS? If it has to be a Windows Server OS, could it also be driven on a Windows 2003 Server VMWare Session which is running on a Windows XP Professional?

many thanks and

best regards

yes, but keep in mind that you need additional resources (memory) for the 2nd operating system.

Hello Peter,

Do a PC with Dual Core CPU, 2GB RAM and 500GB harddisc is enough to run an IDES-system (ABAP Stack) with ERP-modulse (SD, MM, PP, ...)?

OS on the PC is Windows XP Pro ... VMWare Session with Windows 2003 Server to run the IDES-System ... Oracle? or should I use another DB?

many thanks and

best regards

2GB is a bare minimum. just make sure you do not allow too many workprocesses, use 6 Dailog and 4 background, not more. system maybe a bit slow, but still workable.

Oracle is a good choice

500GB of disk is enough

CPU should be fast enough.

This is a training/demo system? then it should work. what is important is the Os that SAP sees.

If you run an application in "VMWare" the system doesn't see the host system so yes, it's possible.

Hello Dietmar,

Yes, XP is not for handling server operations.
