ICM AUTH credentials on sapinst

[former_member618282]

Good morning

I am performing system copy AIX/DB2 and I am using latest SWPM 1.0 SP25

I have no root access just only access with user which can swich to root and I can start sapinst

Question is when I start it from browser, automatically is requesting credentials from ICM AUTH

I tried with (sid)adm user, OS user which can do swith to root but it does not proceed

Hi Angel Manuel, I can see that you have an incident open with SAP Product Support.

As mentioned, the root access to install / perform a copy is essential for SWPM.

I can suggest that you update this thread with the steps if the workaround provided in the incident is successful, in the "Your answer" section

Hello,

I'm trying to install S/4HANA on SUSE 12, on Azure. We do not have root account, and I've been trying using the parameters SAPINST_REMOTE_ACCESS_USER and SAPINST_REMOTE_ACCESS_USR_IS_TRUSTED, with no luck. While "Define parameters" phase on SWPM, we get "Login as root user and restart the process".

Any suggestions?

u can create a root user in azure, connect to ur VM via ssh in azure and type "su - root" or u cant configure root password via commandline "yast"

Hi,

You can Use like below,

./sapinst SAPINST_REMOTE_ACCESS_USER=<SID>adm SAPINST_REMOTE_ACCESS_USR_IS_TRUSTED=true

you can set the SWPM folder for 777 for linux & "Everyone" to Full-Access in case of windows.

Alternative way is, ./sapinst SAPINST_SLP_MODE=true

Thanks,
