SAP ECC Installation error - SWAP SIZE NOT MET

[Former Member]

Hi Guys,

I am trying to install SAP ERP ECC 6.0. My system configuration is 4GB RAM and 250 GB Hard Disk (whole 250 GB as only one drive C). When I am trying to run the prerequisite check, I am getting the warning -

Condition - Swap Size

Result Code - Condition Not Met

Severity - Medium

Message - For the selected services atleast 20480 MB space are recommended. Current value 4263 MB (Updated 2005-06-24)

I am not sure what does this mean. Do I need to create a separate drive as SWAP? If so how can I do that without formatting the system at this point. If that is not necessary what am I supposed to do? Or else can I just ignore the warning and proceed?

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Hi BP

with the Ram you have you can directly start installing ECC6 with out memory problems

or

20480 MB space are recommended

Change the value to 20480 initial and try it

Hi

Increase the swap size

Swap will be 3 Times of the RAM

Mycomputer-->right click >Properties>Advanced>Performance>setting-->Advanced change and give the new value

in your case it should be 12000

Hi Uday,

I gave 20000MB in the maximum size and 4500 MB in the initial size.

The error still showing up.
