Step-by-step Installation Process
- The OutBoard installation package is an add-on which must be imported using the Add-On Installation Tool (transaction SAINT). Use only PAT files related to your BW release. Upload and import the first *.pat file with Outboard SP0 (NSQ0020598870_0000093.PAT) and the last *.pat file with actual SP. Install the tool using the wizard (detailed guide can be found under the Saint online documentation).
After a successful OutBoard DataTiering installation, the software component DVD 200 will be available in the system.
