I am going to try to write some series of blogs on Solution Manager 7.2 in terms of System
Administration.
They will be about installations, configurations, changes and managed system configurations.
Below you can find the installation specific part of this series of blogs.
Preperation Steps
Since Solution Manager 7.2 is in Ramp-Up yet you need to apply for this. You can find detailed
info about Ramp-Up in links Demystifying SAP’s Ramp-Up process and SAP Ramp-Up
Prepare a system for installation. If possible find a system that you could install SM 7.2 on
HANA DB. Unfortunately I did not have chance to use HANA DB. I installed my system on SQL
Server 2012. My system is a virtual system with 4 vCPU and 32 GB of RAM and enough disks.

After preperation steps I followed the Implementation sequence from Master Guide in below order.
