All,

Pls read the following para and explain in simpler term " SAP recommends that all SAP system and database hosts are members of a single windows domain.This is valid for all sap system setups,whether standalone central system or distributed systems.In the single domain model,SAP ERP central component and the use accounts are included in a single domain.For performance and security reasons,no sap instance or databse instance should run on the domain controller".

Can we install central instance on separate machine ,dialog instance on other and database on another machine?

Hello Kevin,

The statement states that SAP system and database host needs to be installed in single domain. For example you may have two domain in your company say location01.orgnanization.com and location02.organization.com. The statement states that both the SAP system and database host needs to be installed under one domain either under location01.orgnanization.com or location02.orgnanization.com. Its not recommeded to install SAP system in one domain and database system in other domain. We can install central instance, dialog instance and database instance in different machines. But make sure all these were installed under one domain.

Anand

Hi,

For windows domain level the authentication within a domain very easy and secure.

Instead of installing another doamin you can use DMZ concept.
