Hi again
I overlooked the topic of your message. I think your Basis consultant means
that it's not best Practice to run ERP and BW in the same system, not that
you have separated the DB server and the application server. I guess your
setup is that you have CI and DB instance in one server and a separate DI
server to balance the load. This is indeed best practice.

I am having a problem with people using "SAP best practise" terms all over.
I need to have clarity on the design we have and if this meets best
practice. We have a 2 application servers running CRM on on and ECC6 with BW
on rhe next. Each of these app servers have thier own spearte databe server.
We also have BO running as the front end on its own evironmnet connecting to
its own database server.
I have a SAp basis consultant who sates he has never seen this cofig and its
a known best practice to have BW running on its own box!
Taking into account taht the apps sever does not do too much work in a bw
inplementeation where BO is used to rended the reports off the cubes stored
in the BW database and that the DB server will be doing all the work I feek
that the DB server needs to be the one that is separated and sized
aprporiataly nd that runaway jobs can be isolated in this manner. (I have
known data loads to kill the db server if not well designed)
