Installing SAP Mobile Platform on a Single Server

This scenario places all SAP Mobile Platform server components on a single host. This scenario is suitable for a developer environment, with shared SAP Mobile Platform server resources. It may also be suitable for an SAP Mobile Platform prototyping environment, or a low-volume production system that does not require load balancing or failover.

Prerequisites

The architecture, design characteristics, and use cases for this installation scenario are described in Choosing an Installation Scenario in Landscape Design and Integration. The installation instructions in this chapter assume that you have used the Landscape Design and Integration document to design the landscape.
