Would be glad to save much time and workload for our customer's servers.

SuSE 8.1 is not reality for now. The buggy 8.0 is. But would be happy to get this fixed. SuSE 8.0 was IMHO released to fast and has got much to much errors. The trouble shooters here made much overtime because SuSE released the 8.0 to fast and cut of the startup support lines by repcing it against 0190- service numbers. >> > 4. su - sapdb and try the create script again.

Got to much troubles before. Our 8.0 worksations were upgraded from prior versions some of them since Version Suse 4.2.1. The upgrade procedure was a shame for SuSE - each release by release. Big sucker was releasing JFS filesystem in 7.3, which caused only troubles and data looses and much more. Nowaddays we are suposed to replace all Suse 7.x and 8.x systems against debian 3/woody. We were fairly long customers of SuSE distributions. But we were much too much disapointed. I think the try out of 8.1 will be the last chance to make a good update. But this is not the point here. Fact is: SapDB was not really supported in SuSE distributions. mfG J.
