Thanks for the info Ash..my scenario will be global host and central ABAP instance on single host, DB instance on separate host. for this setup do I need to share /sapmnt/sid to my DB host, i am thinking not to share to Db host and use the connect user created explicitly on my DB during the central instance installation, can it be doable, I don't see any reason to share the /sapmnt to db host...
Appreciate your response..
