To learn SAP BO Data Services, don't we need to software installed first??? So lets install BODS.
1. Navigate and find the setup.exe file and run/double-click it to begin installer
2. Installer begins
3. Choose the language
4. Make sure you have admin rights/access on the machine before starting installation, else, the 'Administrative Privileges' component will fail.
5. Installer continues
6. At the end of installation, the software requires a system restart, so better close all applications now itself
7. Accept the EULA
8. Type in the Keycode
9. Choose a location to install SAP BODS
10. Choose a language pack
11. Select the required features
12. If this is standalone installation, skip the configuration part, else browser/select the location of DSConfig file
13. Installer ready to install SAP BusinessObjects Data Services 4.0 SP1
14. Installer continues
15. Installer continues
16. Installer continues
17. Installer continues
18. Installer continues
19. Installer finishes installing SAP BusinessObjects Data Services 4.0 SP1
20. Restart the machine
We will look at configuring this with IPS some other day... :-)
