Hi Larry,
We are running SAP 3.0D on NT 3.51. Our hardware consists of
2 SNI Primergy 760 servers with 4 x Pentium Pro 200 processors,
1 GB RAM and 40 GB hard disk (RAID 5). Database is Oracle 7.2.2.
One production, one standby.
We have two more servers on which we do customizing, development
and testing. These are SNI 5SMP boxes with quad Pentium 100
processors, 1 GB RAM and 40 GB hard disk.
We are in production since Jan 1. We started with FI.
Other modules (except HR) will follow within this year.
We are using NT backup on DAT tapes. It takes about 3 hours
to complete, transferred data being about 13GB.
Response time is good for now. There are about 40 concurrent
users on the system regularly. We think that we will have
no problems up to 80-100 concurrent users. We plan to separate
database and application servers then.
Hope this helps...
