Preface

For effective use of this slide set, we strongly recommend to read through the preface!

•

This slide set is primarily intended as a working tool for the SAP Competence Center; providing support for our partners and customers.

•

Each of the SAP solutions presented is based on two certified HP ProLiant servers. These proposals are intended to provide a general reference only; however, these proposals do not replace customer specific

sizing!

•

Mixing the different SAP applications might require different server & storage configurations as proposed in this guide.

•

This is not a marketing document to position different HP platforms with regard of SAP configurations – it is a tool for daily sales work.

Preface

• Server Design & Performance:

• The term CPU is equivalent with socket or processors such as a two CPU Quad Core server contains 8 Cores.

• For availability and performance reasons, HP recommends for SAP ProLiant servers a minimum configuration of two

processors or sockets.

• Depending on customer requirements in relation to data throughput (LAN; SAN); memory extension and scalability of

the server it might be advantageously to choose 4-socket servers as they provide more PCI-slots (data throughput) and memory slots as 2-socket machines.

• In smaller system landscapes, we offer more powerful server systems than required by SAPS. With Intel Xeon or AMD

Quad Core technology the systems offer huge CPU reserves.

• Although one CPU might be able to cover system requirements of smaller systems (especially for non productive

environments), we recommend using two CPUs.

• For clarification – one 2.0 GHz Quad Core CPU costs about 250€ list price. Also bear in mind that two

CPUs improve server memory addressing and redundancy!

• The sizes of the test- and quality assurance systems are related to the size of the given production system and serve as a

general guide.

• The database sizes are based on SAP CC experiences.

• We strongly recommend to get in touch with our StorageWorks specialists in our SAP CC regarding the following topics:

• Selection of appropriate storage array like SWD All-in-One, storage blades, MSA, EVA or even XP, based on

customer requirements

• Backup & restore and availability concepts considering recovery point, recovery time and general availability

• Consolidation of backup and the various associated topics like tape backup, virtual tape libraries, disk-assisted

backup, local and remote mirroring including cluster integration with CLX or MetroCluster

• Value-added tax (sales tax) is not included in the prices (see separate excel worksheet) listed.

Preface: SAP System Landscapes – Basics!

•

When running business critical processes on an SAP production system, you have to customize and develop on a separate SAP system, called the development system. Upon completion of a change, the change needs to be transferred to a

•

quality assurance system (also called test system), where the changes will be tested with master data, ported from the production system. When it has been verified that the changes function correctly, these changes will be ported from the development system to the production system. Consequently, SAP recommends the implementation of at least three systems in every SAP project.

•

On big systems, we recommend the additional installation of a lab system for testing new software versions and operational concepts. Another critical task handled by the lab system is to verify if backups from the production system can be restored, implying that the database size needs to be the same as that on the production system.

•

If your production system is deployed on a cluster, SAP strongly recommends the installation of a lab system which is also operated in a cluster.

•

HP recommends to provide high availability for production systems and to use a cluster generally for 300 users and above.

The SAP Core Applications & Corresponding T-Shirt Sizing recommendations

SAP ECC & CRM Sizing Considerations

• The following block diagram is user based. A user based sizing can be done by HP Sizer or SAP

Quicksizer. Quantity based (requires expert know-how) sizing can only be done by SAP Quicksizer or SAP CC. The description refers to concurrent users; that means SAP users effective working on the system and not the number of SAP licenses or logged-on users. This is a good approximation; and this is verified by our experience; is a ratio of one concurrent user for two SAP licenses (50%).

• As every SAP system has to be customized to the individual customer requirements, it creates

variable load. To provide for adequate system reserves, we estimate a minimum of 10 SAPS (SAP Application Performance Standard) for each concurrent user that is equivalent to a medium SAP SD (Sales & Distribution) user.

• The performance of the servers (CPUs) has increased during the last years; you have to put

adequate memory into the servers. A rational starting base for production systems is to calculate 4until up to 8 GB per Core. Be aware that you only get the feasible SAPS values of the respective servers when using sufficient memory (for instance 32 GB for 2- socket- & 64 GB for 4- socket servers).

• The size of the database is based on our experience and best practices. On smaller databases we

have to prioritize performance instead of capacity.

SAP BI Sizing Considerations

• The SAP BI configuration examples represent 2 different sizes of BI

landscapes, based on practical experience. The medium configuration represents the most common type. These examples are intended for a first budgetary proposal, when no detailed data quantities are available.

• Sizing BI-BPS based on user numbers is not possible!! The 2 examples are

therefore without usage of BI-BPS. For BI-BPS data quantities are

essential!

• A well-founded BI sizing has to be done by defining detailed data quantities

for the SAP Quicksizer tool. To determine the data quantities, the operating

departement and the BI consultant need to collaborate closely.

• Rough data estimations without existing blueprint about BI components

(e.g. number of Info Cubes, ODS Objects ..), cannot lead to a valid sizing result. Even minor changes in the input parameters can change the result

considerably.

SAP APO Sizing Considerations

• The SAP APO configuration examples represent 3 different sizes of APO

landscapes, based on practical experience. The medium configuration

represents the most common type. These examples are intended for a first

budgetary proposal, when no detailed data quantities are available.

• Sizing based on user numbers is not possible. The 3 examples are therefore

based on business figures like characteristic combinations and different order types.

• A well-founded APO sizing has to be done by defining detailed data quantities

for the SAP Quicksizer tool. To determine the data quantities, the operating

department and the SCM consultant need to collaborate closely.

• Rough data estimations without existing blueprint about APO components

(e.g. DP, SNP, PP/DS ..), locations, business processes to be implemented

cannot not lead to a valid sizing result. Even minor changes in the input

parameters can change the result considerably.

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.

• Extra information to the storage solutions:

• Listed storage solutions are approved for running SAP; whereas in existing SAP

landscapes the majority is using our Enterprise Virtual Arrays (EVA).

SAP system landscape proposals

•

The following SAP landscape proposals reflect proven solutions that are in widespread use. A large number of environments with ProLiant server (increasingly blade environments) and Enterprise Virtual Storage Arrays have been placed in the market during the last years.

•

Detailed technical and pricing (German list price) information on the following configuration examples is available (only for HP SAP partners) via a separate Excel worksheet. As the corresponding infrastructure, such as host bus controllers, FC switches- and cables, rack and accessory are included and separately illustrated, you are able to create individual landscapes for budgeting and method of resolution. The hardware building blocks are separated in rack, server, storage, backup, fibre channel server- and san components.

• The cluster examples are designed for NetWeaver 2004s. What’s new in 2004s is that

only the critical components of a SAP system are clustered. These are the database and (A)SCS SAP instance (Message and Enqueue). Additionally SAP application servers are required to provide dialog, batch, update, spool and gateway services. It is recommended that the application server is configured as a log on group.

Sizing Considerations:

• Depending on customer requirements and landscape size the applicable servers could be 2; 4 or 8-socket servers; respective the corresponding blade servers as well

• To represent flexibility and for transforming the VMware concept the configuration layout; especially for memory and data throughput might in summary map out

larger than in physical landscapes; especially in the erection phase. SAP CC recommends starting with a minimum of three pyhsical servers.

• Some more factors:

• customer requirements to availability, failover performance & desaster tolerance (such as VMware side recovery manager)

• user behavior

• the choosen SAP applications

• distribution of productive- and non productive systems

To assure a successful course of SAP virtalization projects we highly recommend contacting SAP CC!
