Installation reference for SAP R/3 4.

71 IDES
Last updated March 2007

You must have following before you start:

Processor: Pentium, AMD or any other
Hard Disk: 80 GB (means you need 80 GB free)
RAM: 512 MB or more
Operating system: Any Windows version, Mac OS
(I only tested on Windows 2000 server)
Network card Any physical network card is forbidden. It shall be virtual network
card and the IP shall be specified

PRE-Installation Instructions
1) Install Winrar on your machine (Files are in DVD #4 \Installation\Winrar)
2) Install Adobe Acrobat reader (www.adobe.com). It is free!
3) Copy DVD1, DVD2, DVD3 and DVD4 contents on your local drive. I assume
you will copy files on C:\SAPDUMP (All the files are 14 GB).
4) Once all the files are there, Right click 471ides.part001 and select extract here
5) When all the extraction is done, then you can delete all the zip files

From now on I assume that you are installing SAP R/3 on “D” drive. If you are planning
to install SAP R/3 on any other drive, then make sure you have 80 GB of free space.

STEP-A , STEP-B and STEP-C are for people who want to install SAP R/3 on Windows
2000 server as a virtual machine.

For all others, Go to STEP 1

STEP-A (Installing Virtual server software)

If you are like me who do not have extra machine and still want to install the software,
then follow the instructions. The approach I took was to install the virtual machine
software on my windows XP and install windows 2000 server as a virtual machine. Can’t
understand?…Don’t worry. Just follow

If you have Windows XP or any older version, then the first step is to install the virtual
server software on your machine. Just double click the \Installation\STEPA folder and
double click VMware-server-installer-1.0.2-39867.exe. Just select default selections and
install it. Don’t worry about any errors.

If you have Linux, then go the following site to get the software
http://register.vmware.com/content/download.html
Make sure you download “VMware Server for Linux

If you have MAC, then go the following site to get the software
http://www.vmware.com/products/beta/fusion/

STEP-B (Configuring Virtual server software)

Double click the icon after the installation. When it asks “Connect to Host”, select local
host and press Okay. Next step is to create a virtual machine for windows 2000 server.
Click on New virtual machine and select Windows 2000 server

STEP-C (Installing Windows 2000)

Install windows 2000 from the CD’s you have and finish the installation. Once you are
done make sure to “Upgrade Virtual Machine”. You can do this by right click on windows
2000 server and click upgrade Virtual machine. Your SAP R./3 installation within your
virtual machine will not start if you have not upgraded the virtual machine.
