Preparing for Installation

Ensure that the host on which you are installing SAP Mobile Platform is ready for you to begin the installation.

  1. Confirm that the installation target host meets minimum system requirements for all SAP Mobile Platform components you are installing.

    See the SAP Product Availability Matrix (PAM) http://service.sap.com/pam. Click the Mobile link at the top of the page. Scroll to find the appropriate product and version in the product list.

  2. Verify that you have Administrator privileges on the installation target host.
  3. Shut down all Sybase® and SAP software and processes, and associated third-party processes, running on the installation target host.
  4. To accommodate SAP Mobile Platform internal communications, you may need to reconfigure intrusion detection/prevention systems (either hardware- or software-based).
    See Intrusion Detection and Protection Requirements in Landscape Design and Integration.
