Take care that your vcenter (if existent) is reachable from LVM host. c) Install a LVM only once for all pools, connect other pools via HTTP proxy You configure global HTTP proxy settings for SAP Landscape Virtualization Management in the SAP NetWeaver Administrator >SOA> SOAMiddleware Global Settings: HTTP Proxy. This can be done after NetWeaver installation. 6

11 Documentation Installation and Configuration Enter your proxy settings e.g. proxy squid on cn1 and press Save. Insert all virtual hostnames in the /etc/hosts of the proxy host e.g. cn1 bx920-3:~ # getent hosts app02l7s app02l7s.fujitsu.rot.com p2-app02l7s app02l7s-se app02l7s-se.fujitsu.rot.com p2-app02l7s-se dbl7s-se dbl7s-se.fujitsu.rot.com p2-dbl7s-se pail7s pail7s.fujitsu.rot.com p2-pail7s pail7s-se pail7s-se.fujitsu.rot.com p2-pail7s-se ascsl7s ascsl7s.fujitsu.rot.com p2-ascsl7s ascsl7s-se ascsl7s-se.fujitsu.rot.com p2-ascsl7s-se cn1:~ # vi /etc/hosts app02l7s app02l7s.fujitsu.rot.com p2-app02l7s app02l7s-se app02l7s-se.fujitsu.rot.com p2-app02l7s-se dbl7s-se dbl7s-se.fujitsu.rot.com p2-dbl7s-se pail7s pail7s.fujitsu.rot.com p2-pail7s pail7s-se pail7s-se.fujitsu.rot.com p2-pail7s-se ascsl7s ascsl7s.fujitsu.rot.com p2-ascsl7s ascsl7s-se ascsl7s-se.fujitsu.rot.com p2-ascsl7s-se Restart proxy e.g. squid cn1:~ # rcsquid restart Shutting down WWW-proxy squid - wait a minute or two......done Starting WWW-proxy squid done Don t forget to update the /etc/hosts on proxy host, if you create new SAP systems and instances in your pools. Take care that your vcenter or ESX host (if existent) is reachable from LVM host 7

12 Installation and Configuration Preparation For a correct LVM-validation it s also necessary to setup all hostnames to /etc/hosts file of the LVM host e.g. see bullet point b). 3.1 Preparation Create a LVM directory in every pool: bx920-1:~ # mkdir /FlexFrame/scripts/log/LVM Create for every LVM managed SAP SID a file e.g. L7S bx920-1:~ # touch /FlexFrame/scripts/log/LVM/L7S Don t forget to update the LVM directory, if you create new SAP systems and instances in your pool. 3.2 NetWeaver Installation Please install a Java only system of the following NetWeaver Releases with the min. SP, see also current SAP note : SAP NetWeaver Release 7.30 Support Package 08 SAP NetWeaver Release 7.31 Support Package 04 SAP NetWeaver Release 7.4 Support Package 04 Please make sure that the FlexFrame Application Agents are stopped on the hosts that you are installing SAP Software on.

SuSE Linux Enterprise Server A Linux distribution by Novell, specializing in server installations. Trivial File Transfer Protocol A simple form of the File Transfer Protocol (FTP). TFTP uses the User Datagram Protocol (UDP) and provides no security features. It is often used by servers to boot diskless workstations, X-terminals, and routers. TFTP server A simple FTP implementation. Virtual Host Before an application starts, the virtual host name is assigned to the physical host where the application is to run. From the application's perspective, it always runs on the same virtual host, even if the application is moved to another physical host. The following rule forms the host names of virtual services: <service_type>[<id>]<sid>[<-lan type] where <service_type> can be one of: ci - central instance (ABAP) db - database instance app - application instance (ABAP) ascs - ABAP SAP central services instance scs - JAVA SAP central services instance jc - JAVA central instance j - JAVA application instance <ID> is a number from 00 to 96 (except: 2, 25, 43, 72, 89) for the service types app and j only. It is empty for other service types. 88

93 Glossary <SID> is the system ID of an SAP system. <LAN type> -se Server LAN empty string Client LAN This host name formation rule for virtual services is mandatory in version 3.2 of the FlexFrame solution. Some components rely on this rule. Within a FlexFrame environment, each node name must be unique. However, each node may have multiple host names that are derived from the node name by a defined naming rule. In SAP environments host names are currently limited to 13 alphanumeric characters including the hyphen ( - ). The first character must be a letter. In the SAP environment host names are case-sensitive. (See SAP Note No ) Virtual Local Area Network A VLAN is a logically segmented network mapped over physical hardware according to the IEEE 802.1q standard. Virtualization Virtualization means the separation of hardware and processes. In a virtualized environment (FlexFrame), a process can be moved between hardware nodes while staying transparent to the user and application. 89
