IDES Demo System

IDES for customers

--- information will be added ---

Terms Of Usage:

Due to security reasons we strongly recommend that you do NOT install
the IDES demo system in the same network as your productive environment.
Please separate the demo environment from your productive environment.
Also we do not recommend that real master data (e.g. client copy of
productive systems) is set up in the IDES system.

Please note that the IDES shipment is a service from SAP on a voluntary
basis. It is not allowed to use IDES systems in production or as
productive systems in order to generate revenue.

Content/Usage:

IDES demo systems and IDES demo landscapes are copies of SAP internal
demo systems with the data of the IDES model company in several clients.
The IDES systems can support demos, functional and tests, self-study or
functional evaluation based on the preconfigured data/clients.
IDES must not be used in production!
The IDES systems do not contain training data that are used in the SAP
training courses.
Customer training etc. based on the IDES systems are not supported.

Hardware Requirements:

The version specific hardware requirements can be found in the specific IDES notes.
Additionally the sizing tools from SAP can be used. Please have a look at the SAP Service Marketplace, Quicklink "sizing" (http://service.sap.com/sizing)

IDES Data/ IDES Client:

IDES is installed as a separate system with it‘s own set of data in different clients!
The IDES model cannot be merged into an existing system nor should IDES be merged with other models.
Client transports are not availble.

Demo-Content / Training Data:

IDES-Systems that are shipped to customers are copies from SAP internal
demo systems and not from the SAP training systems that you might know
from SAP training courses.
The clients used in the courses and the data used in the courses are NOT
included in the IDES shipment.
The latest training system available for customers is the IDES TS 4.6B
(Mat.Nr.51012488 and 51012489). You can order this system by opening an
OSS-message to component XX-IDES.

Support Packages / Upgrade / EHPs:

IDES specific Support Packages do not exist.

Patching and Upgrade of IDES systems are no longer supported. IDES should only be operated as a seperate installation. Each new release requires a new installation!

Due to the complexity of the IDES systems and the number of preinstalled components/AddOns it is not possible any more to generate a consistant maintenance (MOPZ) within the Solution Manager. Because of this technical restriction we recommend to wait for coming IDES versions/releases.

Kernel Updates / Kernel Patches are recommended!

SPAU/SPDD:

The Modification Adjustment can be ignored as far as you did not make own modifications.

IDES Content:

Please note that all Support Packages / Enhancement Packages / Upgrades
do not have any additional IDES-specific parts. You will not find
additionaly demo data in your system after a technical upgrade.
