Summary :
This SAP Note offers guidelines for installing and configuring SAP server software on Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) versions 3.x and 4.x. It covers upgrading existing SAP systems from RHEL 2.1 or 3.x to later releases. Key points include detailed hardware platform certifications, prerequisites for full support, such as a valid Red Hat support contract, certified hardware, and registration in the Red Hat Network. Installation instructions include OS setup, manual disk partitioning, package selection, and post-installation recommendations like network time protocol settings and kernel tuning for SAP applications. Extended Lifecycle Support subscriptions from Red Hat are recommended due to the ended official maintenance phase for RHEL 3.x and 4.x.
