Differences in means of deployment

Hi Everyone,
Could i know what is the difference between deploying through NWDS and SDM.Why are we using NWDI.
Why are we using NWDI for business packages as a compulsion.
Thanks in advance..

Hi,
NWDS is a development environment, at if you for example deploy webdynpro application it again connects to SDM on the server to deploy.
So we just have helper tool on NWDS to deploy on server, but any way these helper tools will anyway use the tools on server to deploy.
It is not a must to use NWDI to develop business packages, I developed a business packages which only has par file, there we need no NWDI at all. So it depends what you are developing, if you develop DC's then you need NWDI.
Using NWDI you have a sourcecontrol in it which also helps people to work in teams and not overwrite each others code.
So it all depends on what you are doing.

Praveen Gudapati

  • What does this mean? (deployment problem)

    Error: Transaction attributes must be specified for the method defined in the home interface[....Home ]. Method [create] has no transaction attributedefined with in this bean [....Bean].

    I already have this method in my Home class

  • What is the best methodology to handle database schema changes after an application has been deployed?

    Hi,
    VS2013, SQL Server 2012 Express LocalDB, EF 6.0, VB, desktop application with an end user database
    What is a reliable method to follow when there is a schema change for an end user database used by a deployed application?  In other words, each end user has their own private data, but the database needs to be expanded for additional features, etc. 
    I list here the steps it seems I must consider.  If I've missed any, please also inform:
    (1) From the first time the application is installed, it should have already moved all downloaded database files to a separate known location, most likely some sub-folder in <user>\App Data.
    (2) When there's a schema change, the new database file(s) must also be moved into the location in item (1) above.
    (3) The application must check to see if the new database file(s) have been loaded, and if not, transfer the data from the old database file(s) to the new database file(s).
    (4) Then the application can operate using the new schema.
    This may seem basic, but for those of us who haven't done it, it seems pretty complicated.  Item (3) seems to be the operative issue for database schema changes.  Existing user data needs to be preserved, but using the new schema.  I'd like
    to understand the various ways it can be done, if there are specific tools created to handle this process, and which method is considered best practice.
    (1) Should we handle the transfer in a 'one-time use' application method, i.e. do it in application code.
    (2) Should we handle the transfer using some type of 'one-time use' SQL query.  If this is the best way, can you provide some guidance if there are different alternatives for how to perform this in SQL, and where to learn/see examples?
    (3) Some other method?
    Thanks.
    Best Regards,
    Alan

    Hi Uri,
    Thank you kindly for your response.  Also thanks to Kalman Toth for showing the right forum for such questions.
    To clarify the scenario, I did not mean to imply the end user 'owns' the schema.  I was trying to communicate that in my scenario, an end user will have loaded their own private data into the database file originally delivered with the application. 
    If the schema needs to be updated for new application features, the end user's data will of course need to be preserved during the application upgrade if that upgrade includes a database schema change.
    Although I listed step 3 as transferring the data, I should have made more clear I was trying to express my limited understanding of how this process "might work", since at the present time I am not an expert with this.  I suspected my thinking
    is limited and someone would correct me.
    This is basically the reason for my post; I am hoping an expert can point me to what I need to learn about to handle database schema changes when application upgrades are deployed.  For example, if an SQL script needs to be created and deployed
    then I need to learn how to do that.  What's the best practice, or most reliable/efficient way to make sure the end user's database is changed to the new schema after the upgraded application is deployed?  Correct me if I'm wrong on this,
    but updating the end user database will have to be handled totally within the deployment tool or the upgraded application when it first starts up.
    If it makes a difference, I'll be deploying application upgrades initially using Click Once from Visual Studio, and eventually I may also use Windows Installer or Wix.
    Again, thanks for your help.

  • UV-SO when partitioned and deployed

    Hi there,
    I have a question related to User-Visible Service
    Object(UV-SO) when partitioned and deployed.
    According to TechNote 9674:Service Object Visibility,
    "if a partition only contains UV-SOs, there will be
    one of these partitions per user". This means, if a
    partition only contains a UV-SO, this UV-SO is reachable
    outside its partition.
    I did some tests. I let an EV-SO call a UV-SO. When I
    ran it in partition workshop(EV-SO and UV-SO are in
    separate server partitions), I got exception raised
    complaining "Cannot resolve the distributed reference
    for the UV-SO". Then I deployed this project with the
    same partition configuration, and it works without any
    error. It looks like there is difference between
    partitioning and deploying. What the TechNote(9674)
    mentions is correct for deployment, but not for
    partition workshop.
    Does anybody have any idea about this?

    It would appear that the error has now been corrected.  There were three things I changed:  the startup.aliases file in the startup directory on the target (home:/lvuser/natinst/bin) had "localhost" set as the alias for the controller.  I changed this to the controller's IP address.  Next, I had some file I/O functions in my RT application which used paths relative to the path obtained with the "Current VI's Path" VI.  As this path changes depending on location / execution system, I had to create a VI which used the Application:Kind property with a case structure to appropriately strip / build the desired data file paths regardless of execution system.  This may have broken my RT application.  Finally, I had a property node in one of my RT SubVIs which attempted to modify an indicator in the SubVI, which is not supported in a compiled RT executable.  I may have done this for debugging purposes somewhere along the way, but in any case, I removed it, and after recompiling and deploying the RT executable, everything seems to be working as intended now.  The host VI on the desktop computer can connect to the RT application through the project, and when compiled into an executable, that works too.

  • Difference between Solution manager and ASAP

    Hi All,
    Can anyone tell me what's the difference between SAP solution manager and ASAP?
    Regards
    Saroj

    ASAP stands For Accelerated SAP........its a SAP implementation methodology. It consists of Five phases---
    1. Project Preparation
    2. Business Blueprint
    3. Realization phase
    4. Final preparation phase
    5. Go live and Support
    For Solution manager u can follow this link:
    http://www.sap.com/services/pdf/BWP_SB_SAP_Solution_Manager.pdf
    ASAP and Solution Manager are tools used for managing SAP implementation and roll out project. Both supports sevral stages of the project as mention by Raj.
    The main Difference between three tools (ASAP, VSAP and Solution Manager) are as follow:
    ASAP:
    - Offline CD set with tools, content and a methodology for component-based implementation projects
    VSAP:
    - Offline CD set with tools, content and methodologies for Evaluation, Implementation and Continuous Business Improvement
    - ASAP CD set is used as a tool platform. ASAP content is included to cover the implementation phase
    Solution Manager:
    - Onsite platform to support key implementation actitivities
    - Including key ASAP concepts and tool features
    - Enhanced concepts to encompass the specifics of mySAP.com implementations
    - Integrated platform to support Implementation and operation of mySAP.com
    - Solution Manager is server based tool.
    More informaiton you can find from the following links:
    ValueSAP : https://www.service.sap.com/valuesapupdates
    Solution Manager: http://service.sap.com/solutionmanager
    some documents what is the duty of asap and solution manager i think with u can understand the difference.
    asap means,
    ASAP
    ASAP stands for Accelerated SAP. Its purpose is to help design SAP implementation in the most efficient
    manner possible. Its goal is to effectively optimize time, people, quality and other resources, using a proven
    methodology to implementation.
    ASAP focuses on tools and training, wrapped up in a five-phase process oriented roadmap for guiding
    implementation.
    The road map is composed of five well-known consecutive phases:
    • Phase 1 Project Preparation
    • Phase 2 Business Blueprint
    • Phase 3 Realization
    • Phase 4 Final Preparation
    • Phase 5 Go-Live and support
    In today's post we will discuss the first phase.
    Phase 1 : Project Preparation
    Phase 1 initiates with a retrieval of information and resources. It is an important time to assemble the
    necessary components for the implementation. Some important milestones that need to be accomplished
    for phase 1 include
    • Obtaining senior-level management/stakeholder support
    • identifying clear project objectives
    • architecting an efficient decision-making process
    • creating an environment suitable for change and re-engineering
    • building a qualified and capable project team.
    Senior level management support:
    One of the most important milestones with phase 1 of ASAP is the full agreement and cooperation of the
    important company decision-makers - key stakeholders and others. Their backing and support is crucial for a
    successful implementation.
    Clear project objectives:
    be concise in defining what your objectives and expectations are for this venture. Vague or unclear notions of
    what you hope to obtain with SAP will handicap the implementation process. Also make sure that your
    expectations are reasonable considering your company's resources. It is essential to have clearly defined
    ideas, goals and project plans devised before moving forward.
    An efficient decision making process:
    One obstacle that often stalls implementation is a poorly constructed decision-making process. Before
    embarking on this venture, individuals need to be clearly identified. Decide now who is responsible for
    different decisions along the way. From day one, the implementation decision makers and project leaders
    from each area must be aware of the onus placed on them to return good decisions quickly.
    Environment suitable for change and re engineering:
    Your team must be willing to accept that, along with new SAP software, things are going to change, the
    business will change, and information technology enabling the business will change as well. By
    implementing SAP, you will essentially redesign your current practices to model more efficient or predefined
    best business practices as espoused by SAP. Resistance to this change will impede the progress of your
    implementation.
    Building a qualified project team:
    Probably the most important milestone early in assembling a project team for the implementation. If you are
    implementing the materials management and plant maintenance modules, you need to include people from
    both of these departments. The team should also represent management as well as non management or
    "functional" personnel. Sometimes management is less aware of the day-to-day functions of an organization,
    including how implementing SAP will tactically influence those function
    ASAP- Second Phase- Business Blueprint
    SAP has defined a business blueprint phase to help extract pertinent information about your company that is
    necessary for implementation. These blueprints are in the form of questionnaires that are designed to probe
    for information that uncovers how your company does business. As such, they also serve to document the
    implementation. Each business blueprint document essentially outlines your future business processes and
    business requirements. The kinds of questions asked are germane to the particular business function, as
    seen in the following sample questions:
    1) What information do you capture on a purchase order?
    2) What information is required to complete a purchase order?
    Accelerated SAP question and answer database:
    The question and answer database (QADB) is a simple although aging tool designed to facilitate the creation
    and maintenance of your business blueprint. This database stores the questions and the answers and
    serves as the heart of your blue print. Customers are provided with a customer input template for each
    application that collects the data. The question and answer format is standard across applications to
    facilitate easier use by the project team.
    Issues database:
    Another tool used in the blueprinting phase is the issues database. This database stores any open concerns
    and pending issues that relate to the implementation. Centrally storing this information assists in gathering
    and then managing issues to resolution, so that important matters do not fall through the cracks. You can
    then track the issues in database, assign them to team members, and update the database accordingly.
    ASAP Phase- 3 - Realization:
    With the completion of the business in phase 2, "functional" experts are now ready to begin configuring SAP.
    The Realization phase is broken in to two parts.
    1) Your SAP consulting team helps you configure your baseline system, called the baseline configuration.
    2) Your implementation project team fine-tunes that system to meet all your business and process
    requirements as part of the fine tuning configuration.
    The initial configuration completed during the base line configuration is based on the information that you
    provided in your blueprint document. The remaining approximately 20% of your configuration that was not
    tackled during the baseline configuration is completed during the fine tuning configuration. Fine tuning
    usually deals with the exceptions that are not covered in baseline configuration. This final bit of tweaking
    represents the work necessary to fit your special needs.
    Configuration Testing:
    With the help of your SAP consulting team, you segregate your business processes into cycles of related
    business flows. The cycles serve as independent units that enable you to test specific parts of the business
    process. You can also work through configuring the SAP implementation guide (IMG). A tool used to assist
    you in configuring your SAP system in a step-by-step manner.
    Knowledge Transfer:
    As the configuration phase comes to a close, it becomes necessary for the Project team to be self-sufficient
    in their knowledge of the configuration of your SAP system. Knowledge transfer to the configuration team
    tasked with system maintenance (that is, maintenance of the business processes after Go-live) needs to be
    completed at this time.
    In addition, the end users tasked with actually using the system for day-to-day business purposes must be
    trained.
    ASAP Methodology - Phase 4 - Final Preparation:
    As phase 3 merges into phase 4, you should find yourselves not only in the midst of SAP
    training, but also in the midst of rigorous functional and stress testing. Phase 4 also
    concentrates on the fine tuning of your configuration before Go-live and more importantly, the
    migration of data from your old system or systems to SAP.
    Workload testing (including peak volume, daily load, and other forms of stress testing), and
    integration or functional testing are conducted to ensure the accuracy of your data and the
    stability of your SAP system. Because you should have begun testing back in phase 2, you do
    not have too far to go until Go-live. Now is an important time to perform preventative
    maintenance checks to ensure optimal performance at your SAP system.
    At the conclusion of phase 4, take time to plan and document a Go-live strategy. Preparation for
    Go-live means preparing for your end-users questions as they start actively working on the new
    SAP system.
    ASAP - Phase 5 - Go-live and Support:
    The Go-live milestone is itself is easy to achieve; a smooth and uneventful Go-live is another
    matter altogether. Preparation is the key, including attention to what-if scenarios related not only
    to the individual business processes deployed but also to the functioning of technology
    underpinning these business processes and preparation for ongoing support, including
    maintenance contracts and documented processes and procedures are essential

  • Got reading error when deploying a web Dynpro project

    Hi everyone,
    I'm working on NWDS 7.1 CE.  After I synchronized a project (using the "Create Project" option), then Build and Deploy it under the Development Infrastructure perspective, I can run it by choosing the "Run" option of the web Dynpro project's application. But once I chose "Deploy new arcihve and run", I got the following error message:
    [ERROR CODE DPL.DC.3095] A reading error occurred while loading the SDU 'D:/usr/sap/DW1/J00/j2ee/cluster/server0/temp/tcbldeploy_controller/archives/3888/dow.comgcacmpprofitcenterui.ear'.; nested exception is:

    Manifest attributes are missing or have badly formatted value:

    Does anyone know what happens here? What's the difference of the Build/Deploy commands under Web Dynpro perspective and under Development Infrastructure perspective? After I made changes to the project, can I just deploy it under the Development Infrastructure perspective?

  • Application deployment on WebLogic 10.3.2

    I am trying to understand the best practice to deploy web applications on WebLogic 10.3.2. Is it recommended have a managed server for each and every deployment or can we have multiple deployments under one managed server. Will there be any performance issues when multiple deployments are running on one managed server? Also can we have each deployment on one managed server listen on common http port?
    Please advice.

    **Is it recommended have a managed server for each and every deployment or can we have multiple deployments under one managed server.
    --You can deploy multiple applications of one single managed server.
    **Will there be any performance issues when multiple deployments are running on one managed server?
    --There will not be performance issue as such; however you have to make sure that the system and server configurations meets the requirements.
    --WebLogic Server allows you to configure a work manager where you define the rules and constraints for your application to boost the performance.
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E12840_01/wls/docs103/config_wls/self_tuned.html
    **Also can we have each deployment on one managed server listen on common http port?
    --Just to make sure if I understood correctly, did you mean one deployment per managed server listen on same http port?
    --If yes, each managed server will have its own unique http port. So application deployed on that will be using a port associated with that managed server.
    --In case if you want all the applications to use a same IP/Port, you can use proxy which will route the requests to these applications deployed on different managed servers.

    Yes Frank. Ours is an SDO service created as per [Service enabled Application Modules|http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23943_01/web.1111/b31974/bcextservices.htm#CJAJGIEB] . We have created the deployment profile as a 'Business Component Service Interface' profile.
    Our attempt to deploy onto standalone from Jdev also fails with the same error. Unsure why the interface is unable to load - Error: Could not load endpointInterface oracle.apps.xyz.common.tasksService.TasksService.
    Does this mean, the deployment process is unable to locate this interface? We have cross checked our deployment profiles quite a few times and could not find anything amiss.

  • Unable to view deployed files in SJWS 7.0

    I did search the forum but could not find any posts related to my issue.
    We have an existing application running on version 6.1 and the application is not a .war file.
    The application is just a folder consisting of jsp's which is located under the www-root/webapps on version 6.1
    We have setup SJWS 7.0 in another machine and copied the application folder from version 6.1 to the location www-root/webapps in version 7.0
    I get "File not found" exception when I try to access the application on the version 7.0 web server.
    I did read the documentation for version 7.0 but could not figure out the ways and means for Deploying applications.
    Could someone help out a noob on SJWS.
    Thanks.

    Thanks for the response.
    Packaging the jsp has been ruled out. I have placed the application folder under the <web server home>/www-root/webapps and enabled the web-app section in the server.xml file.
    Current application url is as follows, which is in iplanet version 6.1
    http://localhost:8080/QA/AP/6.0/Admin
    The application folder QA is kept under the webapps directory.
    The application folder on version 7 is the same and kept under webapps directory.
    <web-app>
    <uri>/QA/AP/6.0/Admin</uri>
    <enabled>true</enabled>
    <path>*<Web Server HOME>*/www-root/webapps/QA/AP/6.0/Admin</path>
    <description>Admin Web App</description>
    </web-app>
    When i try to access the application with the url
    http://localhost:8080/QA/AP/6.0/Admin
    I get file not found.
    Also how can I clear the cache in version 7 where as in version 6 we have Class Cache folder.
    Thanks in advance.

  • WLS 8.1 two domains with EJB and webapp deployed has JVM conflicts?

    Test configuration environment:
    Windows 2003 server installed with weblogic 8.1 server and oracle 9i.
    This weblogic server have two domains, one is for EJB deployment, the other is a webapp that implements accessing to oracle through EJB.
    The issue is when we tested a method provided by the EJB that uses double to calculate some total value, the result was correct. But when we tested it using webapp that was deployed on the same server of EJB, it's result was negative or zero.
    I think the reason is that the JVM which both EJB and webapp used for calculation was the same and may made some conflicts when they run at the same time.
    Any suggestion would be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you in advance!

    Message was edited by:
    linuxapple

    This morning I deployed that webapp to the Domain that deployed the EJB, The results of calculating in webapp's jsp was correct.
    Any one be kind enough to tell me what the calling JVM differences between single domain(deployed by EJB and webapp) and two domains (deployed EJB and webapp separately)?

  • MDS Exception when deploying taskflow

    Use Case:
    I have a taskflow that uses the Web Service Data Control as business service. Now I have packaged this as a jar file and deployed this as a shared library in my
    integrated weblogic server. Now I created a new portal application and created a page.
    I then created a file connection into my reosurce palette and drop my taskflow as a region on the page that I created in Webcenter Portal.
    My problem is that when I ran it I am encountering below error
    oracle.jbo.NoDefException: JBO-25002: Definition com.test.model.DataControls of type null is not found.
    Caused by: oracle.mds.core.MetadataNotFoundException: MDS-00013: no metadata found for metadata object "/com/test/model/DataControls.dcx"Anybody know why?

    What do you mean with deploy method? I'm using the Deploy View of the NWDS, can't think of another way to deploy stuff on CE.
    Or do you mean how the Content is structured? It's a SCA with a couple of DCs, which each consists of an ear, which each contains one ejb module. So the structure looks like the following:
    SCA
    +DC
    ++EAR
    +++EJB
    +DC
    ++EAR
    +++EJB
    +DC
    ++EAR
    +++EJB
    But it's no completely new project. I just want to add a bunch of web services to the existing ones. Therefore I modelled them with the Enterprise Service Builder and then used the model to let the NWDS generate the EJB Skeleton.
    But thanks for your tip anyway.

  • "jdbc:mysql:///test" - "jdbc:mysql:test" what is the difference

    "jdbc:mysql:///test" -> "jdbc:mysql:test" what is the difference:
    I used both of them in my url but only "jdbc:mysql:///test" worked only
    what is the difference what /// means?

    JDBC URLs have the format
    jdbc:<subprotocol>://<data source identifier>
    jdbc indicates a JDBC data source. subprotocol identifies which JDBC Driver to use.
    For com.mysql.jdbc.Driver and localhost server, database name as 'test':
    it's jdbc:mysql://localhost/test
    or jdbc:mysql://127.0.0.1:3306/test
    you would select another server and database name.
    For sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver with MS Access or SQLServer database, it's jdbc:odbc:DSNname

    What do you mean by Deploy BITS to the servers? The BITS client should already be installed on then as it is native to the OS.
