经历了超过10次的失败之后，终于成功地在虚拟机安装了SAP R/3 4.6D，操作系统是Windows 2003 standard server，分配给256M内存，最大40G硬盘，分区两个，Oracle和SAP都装在了D盘的NTFS分区。

对了，虚拟机安装了2个网卡，并且一个网卡指定IP为192.168.0.1，另一个NET连接。

希望能有时间做一个完整的安装Video，还要注册一个域名，正式开始我的SAP学习之旅。

兴奋中，有点不想睡觉。

以下内容为IDES的相关资料。

IDES 全称是：Internet Demonstration and Evaluation System 中文翻译叫：交互式演示与教育系统，咱们简称叫Demo（演示）系统。另：SAP International Demonstration and Education System (IDES)

IDES跟R3区别： 功能完全一样，配置上IDES是一个完整配置的R3，还包括大量的业务数据。

IDES安装：和R3安装相同 。

附IDES原文说明：Introduction

IDES the “Internet Demonstration and Evaluation System” in the R/3 System, represents a model company. It consists of an international group with subsidiaries in several countries. IDES contains application data for various business scenarios that can be run in the SAP System. The business processes in the IDES system are designed to reflect real-life business requirements, and have access to many realistic characteristics. IDES uses easy-to-follow business scenarios to show you the comprehensive functions of the R/3 System. The focal point of IDES, however, is not the functionality itself, but the business processes and their integration.

These IDES business processes are described in detail within this online documentation. The individual demos provide you with an overview of the master data, and contain step-by-step instructions of how to execute the individual processes.

IDES not only covers the Logistics area, but also Financials, and Human Resources. It demonstrates how the R/3 System is able to support practically all types of industries, from discrete production through to process industries, from engineering-to-order to repetitive manufacturing. However, IDES is not a sector-oriented model company. The individual processes are based on practice-oriented data for sectors such as Retailing or Banking. The IDES group manufactures products as diverse as elevators, motorcycles, and paints.

IDES is managed by SAP just as any regular business enterprise. SAP regularly updates the IDES data (master data, transaction data, and customizing). We also carry out period-end closing and plan with different time-horizons. Transaction data are generated to ensure that the information systems in all areas have access to realistic evaluation data. We are constantly implementing new, interesting business scenarios to highlight the very latest functions available in the R/3 System. New functions are represented and documented by IDES scenarios.

Above all, IDES shows you the possibilities of the integrated applications in the SAP System. We cover all aspects of a business enterprise, including Human Resources, Financial Accounting, Product Cost Planning, Overhead Management, Profitability Analysis, Planning, Sales and Distribution, Materials Management, Production, and much, much more.

IDES shows you how the R/3 System supports production processes, the supply chain, and the efficient usage of global resources. Or perhaps you would like to increase your understanding of just-in-time-production or the integration of the electronic KANBAN system in an MRP II environment? IDES provides the ideal way to learn about areas such as Product Cost Controlling, Activity-Based Costing, or integrated Service Management and Plant Maintenance. How to manage high inflation is just one of the ever-growing number of IDES business scenarios that you can choose from.
