Summary :
This SAP Note pertains to the installation and operational guidelines for SAP products within AIX Workload Partitions (WPARs). It specifies that beginning with AIX 6.1, System WPARs and Application WPARs can host SAP applications. System WPARs offer a full AIX environment, supporting dedicated writable file systems, while Application WPARs share the file system of the global environment and are transient, existing only while the application runs. Critical prerequisites include examining AIX and IBM Redbook documentation on WPARs and adhering to specific SAP and Aix patch levels for optimal operation. Furthermore, monitoring capabilities for WPAR through CCMS require a minimum system level of 7.00, and lower versions necessitate a SAP CCMS agent. Several database versions are supported, each with specific prerequisites outlined for stable deployment within WPAR environments.
