SAP Installation on Longhorn Beta 3

  • Article

With availability of Longhorn (aka Windows Server 2008) Beta 3, SAP supports the installation and test of SAP NetWeaver 7.0 (previously SAP NetWeaver 2004s) in non-productive test environments. Due to lack of validation, productive installations are not yet supported. The full process is described in SAP note 1054740. It basically supports x64 hardware and the SQL Server database with SP2. There is a download package SAPINST.ZIP from SAP which includes an updated sapinst for the installation on Windows Server 2008. Subsequently, a new kernel with (at least) patch level 108 is as well needed.
