System Requirements

Make sure your system meets all requirements before you install SAP Control Center (SCC). If you install SCC on the same host as a managed server, the host must meet the requirements outlined here in addition to the requirements for the managed server.

SAP recommends the following minimum specifications for the SAP Control Center server machine:
  • Two 2.4GHz processors
  • 4GB of RAM

OS Patch Requirements for Java

Before you run the installer, install any patches for your operating system that are required for SAP Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 7.1. (You need not install or upgrade the JRE; it is included in the installer.)

For SAP JRE requirements, see SAP Note 1367498: SAP JVM Installation Prerequisites.
Note: For Windows, SAP Note 1367498 lists the wrong Microsoft Visual C++ patch. The required patch is the Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Service Pack 1 Redistributable Package ATL Security Update, available at http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=14431.

Browser Requirements

SCC 3.3 supports these browsers with Flash Player 10.1 or greater:
  • Internet Explorer 8 or greater
  • Firefox 3.6 or greater
  • Chrome 20.x or greater

Disk Space Requirements

Disk space requirements after installation vary considerably, depending on the number of servers you monitor with SCC and how much performance data you collect. As your repository of historical performance data grows, expect SCC to use more disk space. SAP recommends that you closely monitor disk usage and growth trends so you can add more storage in a timely manner.
