Configuration of SAP NetWeaver 

This documentation helps you in your role as administrator to configure an SAP NetWeaver installation effectively for technical operations.

If you did not install a preconfigured SAP NetWeaver system, the section Wizard-Based Configuration provides you with information about how to use basic configuration tasks to configure your system quickly and simply.

You must use this guide in combination with other documentation such as the Master Guide and the SAP Library.

Constraints

This document assumes that the system or systems are running, or could be started at least once. This documentation therefore contains no information about installation.

For general information about the initial configuration of your SAP NetWeaver system directly after the installation, see SAP Solution Manager - the system that manages your system landscape. When you create a project in SAP Solution Manager, you can see all its relevant configuration information.

About this Document

SAP defined installable software units (systems, standalone engines, and clients). This documentation about the technical operations of SAP NetWeaver reflects this concept.

This documentation about configuring SAP NetWeaver is structured accordingly into the following main sections:

Sections	Description of the Subsections
General Configuration Tasks	Contains over-arching topics that cannot be restricted to one SAP NetWeaver system or one standalone engine, such as high availability, system copy, and licensing.
Configuration of Databases	Contains the configuration tasks for the databases
Configuration of SAP NetWeaver Systems	Contains the configuration tasks for SAP NetWeaver systems in which one or more SAP NetWeaver usage types are installed. The usage types of SAP NetWeaver, which you can select during installation, include: ●      Application Server ABAP (AS ABAP) ●      Application Server Java (AS JAVA) ●      Process Integration (PI)
Configuration of the Standalone Engines	Contains the configuration tasks for additional installable entities that function “standalone”, and that are not really SAP NetWeaver systems. They provide a specific server function in combination with one or more usage types of SAP NetWeaver, which include: ●      Search and Classification (TREX) ●      SAP Web Dispatcher ●      Standalone Enqueue Server ●      Non-central Advanced Adapter Engine ●      Partner Connectivity Kit (PCK)
