The prerequisite for SAP XI installation are

1> You just require to have a WAS (WEB APPLICATION SERVER 6.40 ) installed with a ABAP stack as well as java stack.

2> You need to have a SLD installed.It can be on same or different system.

Its better if you follow the Master installable.

If you are installing XI 2004s it asks you for all the options in a sequence , for which all components you wish to install(eg. XI or MI etc) on your WAS.

Chk this official document for installation

Also, the following thread posted by some former members could be of some help.

Technical configuration after installation:

For XI 3.0 and PI 7.0, Window Server is recommended.

For PI 7.1, Window Server is recommended, but with 64 bit only..it will not work with 32 bit.

HI,

I think we can but need few services to install for support SAP flat form. Most of the installation was going on Windows 2000 Server/Professional and 2003 server. Most of the cases XI using as a font end (end user) but installation is going on above servers.

For installation find the below documents

YES, you can in XI 3.0 on XP.

But not sure about PI and also not sure about Vista if you can install XI 3.0 or PI.

Mainly Windows2000 Server, Windows2003 Server is recomonded.

Hi,

No. The SAP softwares get installed only on Windows Server Operating Systems like Windows2000 Server, Windows2003 Server etc.

Thanks,
