Unit-1 The Kernal is the runtime environment to run the software component. It is database and OS depending. It is also called Application Server or SAP Instance or Dispatcher and work processes. The software components SAP_BASIS, SAP_ABA and others contain basis functions (User admin, performance tools, TMS, development tools. The basis software components together with the kernel are also called SAP NetWeaver Application Server. Example of AS JAVA is SAP XSS and SAP Portal. An instance of an SAP system is an administrative unit in which components of an SAP system that provides one or more services are combined. The services within one instance are started or stopped together. The instance number is a two-digit number, and is chosen at installation. It defines a range of standard communication ports for processes of the instance. The standard port of the dispatcher is 32$$ where $$ denotes the instance number. We should not use the instance numbers 98 and 99, because they are reserved for the SAP router. A Java instance consists of a Java dispatcher and one or more server process. A (Java-based) SAP system can have several instances. One of them is the (Java) central instance. It includes an additional process - the Software Deployment Manager (SDM) - which can only be configured once across the SAP system. There is also a Java Central Services (SCS or CS) instance.

Note: In AS Java releases starting from 7.10, there will be no Java dispatcher any longer. Instead the load balancing is been done by a Java ICM process. AS ABAP instance of an SAP system containing the Enqueue server and the message server (ASCS = ABAP SAP Central Services). Since SAP NetWeaver 7.0 the Message Server and the Enqueue Work Processis separated from the Central Instance. These two are grouped within the ABAP SAP Central Services (ASCS) as server. Component of ASCS Enqueue work process administers the lock table in the shared memory. The lock table contains the logical database locks of the ABAP runtime environment of the SAP system. Only one enqueue work process is needed for each system Message Server (MS) handles communication between the distributed dispatchers within the AS ABAP, thereby enabling scalability of several parallel application servers. The message server is configured only one per SAP system Unicode defines a character set that includes virtually all characters used worldwide and as a result provides consistent, global character encoding.

Unit-2Start and use SAPinst SAPinst normally creates the installation directory sapinst_instdir, where it keeps its log files, and which is located directly in the Program Files directory. During the installation, SAPinst uses port 21200 to communicate with the GUI server. The GUI server uses port 21212 to communicate with SAPinst GUI. 4239 is the port of the HTTP server, which is part of the GUI server. To get a list of all available SAPinst properties, start SAPinst with the parameter -p: Windows: sapinst.exe p and UNIX: ./sapinst -p On your local host start SAPinst GUI by executing the following command: Windows: startinstgui.bat -host UNIX: ./startInstGui.sh -host Name the log files used by SAPinst The logs of SAPinst GUI and the GUI Server are written to the folder%userprofile%\.stdgui (Windows) and /.stdgui (UNIX) If SAPinst GUI does not start, check the file sdtstart.err in the current%userprofile% (Windows) or (UNIX) directory.

SAPinst is controlled by XML files. The main XML files are: dialog.xml - contains all dialogs used in the installation keydb.xml - SAPinst records the installation progress and user input in the keydb.xml file messages.xml - contains all messages used in the installation control.xml - contains the component definition used by SAPinst packages.xml - for software package administrationGeneral Preparation for Installation

Download the installation DVDs. Read the required installation guides and all required SAP Notes. Install/update SAP front-end components like SAP GUI for Windows. Set environment variable for SAPinst. Install Java Development Kit for SAP NetWeaver AS Java (depending on usage types and operation system) - depending on the need. Set environment variable for SAP NetWeaver AS Java. Download Java Cryptography Extension (JCE) Unlimited Strength Jurisdiction Policy Files for AS Java based SAP systems). Check if the necessary hardware and software requirements are fulfilled (Prerequisites Check).Additional Preparation for Installation on Windows Reduce Size of File Cache (in case of Windows Server) Prepare the Transport Host On the transport host, create the directory \usr\sap\trans. Grant Everyone the permission Full Control for the directory. Share the usr\sap directory on the transport host as sapmnt. This enables SAPinst to address the transport directory in the standard way as \\SAPTRANSHOST\SAPMNT\trans.Additional Preparation for Installation on UNIX
