8 THOUGHTS ON HOW TO INSTALL WINDOWS SERVER

Hi
To Install any SAP software (ECC 6.0 or SRM 7.0 or SCM 7.0
or CRM 7.0) in VMware environment, You need to have a
laptop which has VT(Virtualization Technology) enabled in
its BIOS.
After confirming that there is a VT option,
1. 8GB RAM and 500GB HDD space is required to install
ECC 6.0 EHP6 IDES.
2. 8GB RAM and 200GB HDD space is required to install
SCM 7.0 EHP1 IDES.
3. 8GB RAM and 200GB HDD space is required to install
CRM 7.0 EHP2 IDES.
4. 8GB RAM and 200GB HDD space is required to install
SRM 7.0 EHP1 IDES.
5. If you want to install all of the above options in single
laptop in different VMs, 20GB RAM and 1TB HDD is
required.
Please get back to me for more questions to get clarity on
laptop configuration to install sap software for practice at
home.
Best regards

Hi Ravi,
If your ECC Installation is working fine in VMware. You can
locate the file with the extension .vmdk, which you can
usually find in documents/Virtual Machines folder, if you
have selected typical installation while creating new virtual
machine. This file is huge in size. Once you locate this file,
just copy the file to your external drive. Once the file is
copied to external drive, your ECC is safe in the external
drive. That means you took the backup of ECC. You can
copy this file to another computer where you want to run
ECC. Once the .vmdk file is copied to another computer,
After installation of VMware software, Create new virtual
machine and select custom option this time and point the
path to .vmdk file when it prompts for virtual disk. Once this
configuration is done, you can switch on the virtual
machine, You can proceed with the starting of ECC using
SAP Management console which must be available as icon
on your virtual machine desktop. Please get back to me if
you need any more information. You can also opt for my
remote support whenever you need.
Thanks

Hi raj,
I have installed VM Ware IDES ECC 6.0. All customization is
working perfectly. But, when i try to create programs, system
is prompting for Access key. Could you please give me the
same.
Note : I have already installed and everything is working
perfectly except new program creation through se38 (as it is
asking for Access key)
Thanks in advance.
