Hi all. We are planning to install BI 4.1 SP04 on a 5 node(server) setup with Web Server and application server on two nodes and processing servers distributed on other 3 nodes. We have performed Sizing according to SAP BI sizing guide and configured servers with required CPU CORES and Memory per server. Now the question I have is on actual installation. I read few documents and installation guides and still left with so many questions and I'm hoping someone here can explain it in better and easier way for this type of installation.
1) Since web tier (TOMCAT 7, bundled with BI 4.1 SP04)is on separate server and CMS is on separate server, I have questions on how to configure these two and tie them up
2) since I'm using TOMCAT 7 bundled from SAP, do I need to use WDeploy to deploy WAR files?
3) If I want to split Static and Dynamic Contents for WEB SERVER, can I do that after installing the BI server and then revisit the configuration for splitting WEB SERVER?
4) if I want to provide a custom URL (change server name to something like "http://MyCompany41TEST/BO/BI" ) what all should I change
And any help on providing a clear cut document for installation, would be much helpful.
Please do not hesitate to hit me with any questions you may have regarding my problem.
Thank you
