Preface
The previous slides presented server-
and storage characteristic information marked
by alphabetic letters for use in the following slides. By combining the specifications
from the T-shirt sizing data with the hardware data, you can build individual system
landscapes and/or size the required components. Configuration and budgeting
(German list price) details can be extracted from a separate Excel worksheet.
Extra information on the server systems:
As SAP (especially Java) generally allocates a huge amount of system resources, we
recommend to apply a minimum of 8-
optimal 16 GB RAM per server system; as well as
for non-productive systems (behold server sizing categories A & I).
All systems should be configured with redundant options such as host bus controller; fans
and power supplies (see server configuration layout in the Excel
sheet).
For booting from SAN, you have to plan internal server disks for
the page file anyway,
otherwise performance problems will arise.
