Step-by-step Installation Process

  1. 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 in the Saint online documentation).
    After a successful OutBoard DataTiering installation, the software component DVD 200 will be available in the system.

  2. ADSO archiving is supported only for the BW 750 release or a higher version. To enable ADSO archiving import the transport attached to the installation package. 

    Note

    This step is only required in case you want to archive an ADSO and you are using a SAP HANA system with the SAP Nearline interface 1.11 (for more information, please check the SAP Note 2320378). More information about the support of an ADSO can be found in the OutBoard user documentation.
