Hello,
I would like to install SAP ECC6 EhP4 from System Copy (backup/restore) in Windows failover cluster environnement with two nodes.
So, I have installed MSSQL Server 2008R2 SP2 in cluster mode (using virtual host : FRSERVERSQL).
Now, I have to install SAP ECC. (A virtual host has been created : FRSERVERSAP)
I have created manually SAP SID service on "Failover cluster manager" windows menu.
Inside this service, I have created :
- IP resource
- Shared folder (sapmnt : E:\usr\sap)
- Disque resource (E:)
I have created saploc shared folder (c:\usr\sap)
Following install guide and some SCN threads, I have doubt with the way to install SAP in Windows failover cluster environnement.
I found this way on SCN :
1. Central services instance for ABAP installation.
Use the command line sapinst.exe SAPINST_USE_HOSTNAME=FRSERVERSAP
Note - during the installation time all the cluster resource should be in Node 1
2 First MSCS node installation => on Node I? Do I need to use SAPINST_USE_HOSTNAME=FRSERVERSAP ???
3 Database Instance Installation => Do I need to use SAPINST_USE_HOSTNAME? If yes, do I use FRSERVERSQL???
4 Additional or Second MSCS node installation => on Node II? with SAPINST_USE_HOSTNAME?
5 Enqueue replication server installation for ABAP in Node I
6 Enqueue replication server installation for ABAP in Node II
7 Central Instance Installation in Node I
8 Dialog Instance Installation in Node II
9 Post processing steps after system copy
One more question.
After installation is OK, If I have to refreh this environnement (with homogenous sytem copy - backup/restore),
which option should I have to use after restore? Only Database instance installation or all options described above?
Thanks for your help
Regards
