First of all, the process went quite well and the only struggle was to get all the Service Principal Names (SPNs) correct including named instances and the SQL Server Browser service on the SSAS server.
Main take aways:
- Spend time on planning and account for some issues related to Kerberos authentication (hard to estimate)
- Follow the latest version of the AX Installation Guide
- Make sure you deploy the latest Cumulative Rollup package for AX (and other services)
- Bookmark the AX EMEA Support Team Blog (very valuable source of information)
- Make sure each component work as expected before you proceed the install and configuration sequence

Hello,
Have you installed any of the hotfixes yet. Have you any idea what time period we are talking about to install all six hotfixes.

Hi,
If I understand your question, you are refering to the available rollups (6). If this is the correct understanding, you only have to apply rollup 6 since rollups are cumulative (6 includes all prior rollups). Time periods = time required? That depends a lot - if it's a new installation, it's 2-3 hours including compilation and syncronization. If it's a running solution with customizations, the story is more complicated since you may have to merge your customizations (overlayering issue). Ok?
Hello.
I trying to make a complete installation with Sharepoing 2010, AX 2009, Windows 2008 R2, SQL 2008 R2.
You are saying that we need to follow the newest version of the installation guide. The newest I can find is from November 2009. Is it new enough?
Thank you in advance...
Mötz: Yes this is is latest one (http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=2960). Sorry for a very late responce :-)
