1. Deploy SAP IDES EHP7 SP3 for SAP ERP 6.0 on Azure.; 4 minutes to read Contributors. All; In this article. This article describes how to deploy an SAP IDES system running with SQL Server and the Windows operating system on Azure via the SAP Cloud Appliance Library (SAP CAL) 3.0.
2. We will provide SAP ECC 6.0 EHP 7 IDES VMware Download,SAP ECC6.0 EHP7 Downloadable VMWare. We are giving full support for any technical problem of plug and play.

SAP IDES is an easy way for end users or consultants to get acquainted with SAP or gain mastery over the SAP ERP.

This document will explain you the installation of IDES server for learning and practice purpose. There are some prerequisites before installation of IDES EHP6 server. We required installation media, list of media is shown below:

• j2sdk-1_4_2_17-windows-amd64.exe
• IDES EHP6 Installation Master
• IDES EHP6 Installation Export
• NW703 Kernel 720_Ext
• SL Controller 720
• MS SQL RDBMS
• SAPCRYPTOGRAPHIC Library
• JCE (Java Cryptography Extension) Policy

The above media is available on SAP Marketplace. Download and store it on your local hard disk. What we have gone through was software requirement, now let us focus on hardware requirement. For the installation we require server with

• RAM of 4 GB and above
• HDD of 600 GB
• Intel i3 processor 64-bit and above
• Windows server 2006 R2 operating system.

Note: You can install SAP on Linux , AIX and Sun Solaris as well Below we have explained road map and each step for SAP IDES installation.

Many learners need a video of the installation steps or do not have access to the SAP Marketplace to download the necessary files.
For such students we recommend you follow this course to get step by step process to install SAP in your laptop.

Fig. Roadmap of SAP Installation

Installation steps:

1. Hostname of the server where you want to install IDES should not be more than 13 characters otherwise you will get an error during installation.
2. Increase the virtual memory to thrice of physical memory of the server or ideally you can make it 20 GB.
3. Install the Java - j2sdk-1_4_2_17-windows-amd64.exe and set the JAVA_HOME environment variable. Windows server 2008 R2 has the java component within operating system package.
4. Before you start SAP IDES installation, you need to decide the System Identifier (SID) and Instance Number (00). Here we will use SID = IDS and instance number = 00.
5. Now go to the installation master media and follow the path as shown below:
   SAPCD(F:)/INST_MAST/IM_WINDOWS_X86_64/sapinst and double click on 'sapinst' as shown in below figures 1 & 2.

20. Once all the prerequisites and user creation is complete, we need to install the database before we start installation of central instance of IDES server. To start the DB installation we need to go to RDBMS DVD as shown in figure 16.Here we have MS SQL database and for that SAP provided the script 'SQL4SAP', just double click on that script. If you have Oracle database then it will get install in between installation of SAP.

Fig. 16

21. After you double click on the script, it will open a window and ask for the database instance SID. For sap installation always keeps it as default. So, it will create the DB SID same as SAP SID. Details are given in figure 17.

Fig. 17

22. Once you click on the OK button, it will ask for the confirmation, so click on OK as shown in figure 18.

Fig. 18

23. Once you confirm it will start the installation of MS SQL database in the background and installed on 'C:/' drive.
