Load balancing for SAP R3 through ITS for EP .

Dear All
We are using ITS bease SAP R3 iviews in EP ..The landscape is as follows
EP --> ITS --> SAP R3 .
We need to configure a load balancing from EP to R3. Currently the ITS is set to hit one Application server on SAP r3 . How do i configure load balancing in EP for R3 .
Even if we use the Load Balancing Iview, it does not prompt to enter SAP R3 Application servers in the EP Load balancing iview properties.
all it asks is the ITS server and SAP server for connectors.
Regards
Jayesh

Please do the following steps to accomplish load balancing. It includes both ITS definition and system definition.
ITS Definition:
System definition alone will not help. Because you are using ITS to access SAP R/3. ITS uses global.srvc file to access SAP R/3 system.
When you install ITS you have option to choose connection with SAP R/3. You have two options here.
1) Message server with load balancing
2) Application server.
If you choose option 1, you will have load balancing on SAP R/3 using ITS.

Load Balancing For OIM servers in hyper V

Hi All,
I am very new to load balancing. I am trying to implement load balanceing in our current production setup.
Our current production setup is as below:
Virtualization Platform : Hyper V
Guest OS : RedHat Linux
OIM server : Two OIM servers in clustered mode without any load balancer
As we don't have any load balancers, transactions are not getting distributed between the two application servers. Which is impacting the performance.
First of all can we implement load balancer without impacting much to the application servers. What is the best load balancer that is suitable for our current setup.
It will be great help if you can share some links for the same.
Thanks,
Biswa

Hi All,
I want to mention few more details about our OIM implementation and what we are trying load balance.
SAP HRMS is the trusted source for OIM. We recieve IDOCs for user creation, modification and disable from SAP through JMS queue. OIM doesn't recieve any http transactions.
My understanding is we need to load balance JMS queue. Please confirm
Thanks,
Biswa

Network load balancer for Agentry applications

Hi Expert,
I'm going to implement a SAP Mobile Platform solution that will use an agentry application and I need some clarification about the HA configuration and the usage of the network load balancer and relay server. Just for information I'm going to use SMP 2.3 SP4.
My understanding is that Relay server is a reverse proxy and load balancer for SMP but It can't be used for the agentry applications. Is this correct?
Based on the standard configuration in order to balance the load of the client devices in the SMP cluster I have to use a Network load balancer, therefore the technical architecture of my solution should be the following:
|Agentry Client device| ----> | Network Load Balancer | ----> | SMP and Agentry Cluster| -----> |Back end systems|
Is this correct? I didn't find specifications about the Network load balancer.. Is there a list of the Network load balancer products supported from SAP for agentry application. Is there any best practice on the network load balancer?
Thank you in advance for you collaboration.

Because we don't test any directly with our QA we don't have have a preferred products. Talking to our consulting group they normally just use what the customer already has installed in their network. Both Software or hardware load balancers has been used.
The key part needed for the load balancer for Agentry 6.0.x and SMP 2.3 (not SMP 3) that it is set to TCP Pass through.

Reverse Proxy and Load Balancer for SMP 2.3 and Agentry Application

Hi Expert,
I'm putting in place a mobile solution composed by SMP 2.3 SPS 4 and SAP ECC 6.0. In the SMP 2.3 I created the agentry server and I have deployed my agentry application.
My SMP/Agentry infrastructure is composed by two servers therefore I need a load balancer for balance the load into the several servers. Furthermore I need to use a reverse proxy in my DMZ zone.
Based on what indicated in the SAP note "1904213 - SAP Mobile Platform Server Release Information" the Apache Reverse Proxy is not supported for Agentry clients. Agentry uses nginx for Reverse Proxy.
I also found the following document How-to-Guide for Reverse Proxy and Load Balancing in SAP Mobile Platform 3.x that explain how to set-up a reverse proxy and load balancer with nginx and apache.
Both the SAP note and the HOW to document are refereed to SMP 3.0 and not to SMP 2.3.
I would know if the NGINX must be used also for SMP 2.3.
Any suggestion/information is appreciated.
Thanks in advance

Installing 2 Application server and 1 DB server and load balancing for 11i

Hi,
I need info on how to install and configure load balancing for 11.5.8 on Win2000. The scenario: 1 db server DB, 2 apps/web/forms servers AP1 and AP2. Using rapid install you can only specify one db server A and one form server in multi node installations, right? How do I install the form server on AP2? Can I use the same config.txt? The computer name for AP2 is different.
Thanks & Regards,
Jagal

I have the very same issue. We want to install 4 web/form servers on a hardware load-balancer and the issue is we can only specify one forms server.
Does anyone know the secret bullet here?
Thanks

Setting up Load Balancing for 11i for Intranet & Internet Access

Our current environment for 11i (11.5.5) is accessed only internally (via Intranet). We need to allow outside access (via Internet) also for self-service apps (ie. HR). Oracle Support/Metalink has stated that Load Balancing (note 148155.1) is the only supported method to have multiple (Apps Servers) systems access a single database. Could I get feedback from anyone who has implemented Load Balancing for 11i? Additionally if someone has implemented this for both intranet and internet access how has your company setup? Do the secondary server(s) from the Load Balancing note reside in the DMZ? And thus the primary app server and database reside inside the firewall? Thanks....

Hi,
We are using 6 middle tiers for internal access for intranet access and 2 middle tiers in External DMZ with only web server running for Extrenal Access over Internet for Self Service.
You Implement one Load Balancer for first 6 internal Middle Tiers with site level profiles pointing to Internal .
You implement second Load balancer for external 2 middle tiers with server level profile options for these two servers pointing to External Load balancer .

Load Balancing for Microsoft Orchestrator application

Hi Folks,
We are trying to configure Load Balancing for Orchestrator Server.
We have closely 200 users running a workflow.. so in that case, we need to configure the Runbook Server as a application load balancing cluster, so please do share me the configuration guides..
Regards,
Venu
Best regards, Venu.

I'm in the middle of doing this right now. There is a doc on metalink (233428.1) that details the process. I would highly recommend trying this in dev/test env first. Even though the instructions are very straight forward and not very complicated, I'm still having configuration issues.

Does Traffic Manager provide database load balancing for MySQL?

I need two VMs to implement MySQL Cluster in Windows Azure. VMs allow configure endpoint load balance set for Mysql, but I did not find tcp protocol in Traffic Manager. Does it provide this service for database
load balancing?

Hi,
Traffic Manager works on the DNS level and routes traffic between public endpoints that sit behind a common DNS name. So you can't use this for your scenario.
However, You can implement
load balancing for VMs in another way.

What is the alternative of F5 BIG-IP LTM Load Balancer for OEM 12c

We want to implement service load balance, however oracle recommended
F5 BIG-IP LTM Load Balancer for OEM 12c
How much it is cost? and is there any free alternative we can use which supported by Oracle?
Thanks

Apart from F5, Cisco is another SLB vendor. I am not sure about any free alternative though.
Note that regardless what SLB that you pick, it should meet the requirements documented in section 29.3.2.2 of the EM12c Release 3 Administrator's Guide:
The SLB must provide support for multiple virtual server ports. Enterprise Manager typically requires that up to 4 ports are configured on the SLB (Secure Upload, Agent Registration, Secure Console, Unsecure Console)
Support for persistence. HTTP and HTTPS traffic between the browser and the OMS requires persistence
Support for application monitoring. The SLB must be capable of monitoring the health of the OMSs and detecting failures, so that requests will not be routed to OMSs that are not availa

CISCO Load Balancer with SAP on Unix and Oracle

Hello Experts,
Explain me the steps How CISCO Load balancing Mechanism works with SAP Enterprise Portal?
If anyone implemented and achieved the same,please explain me the steps to follow from Initial Stage to end of implementation.
Or If you have any documentation on this just share with me or point me to the particular link.
I have seen the below SAP help which is somewhat helpful.

I would like to know how CISCO will connect to M/essage Server /Java Dispatcher.
And explain me the steps to follow to implement External Facing Portal using Cisco Loadbalancer.
This should be achieved in Unix environment.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Karthick Eswaran
*Points will be rewarded for helpful suggestions

We use F5 for loadbalancing, but all hardware loadbalancing solutions should similar. They offer multiple algorithms, we use simple round robin (SAP's webdispatcher has better options for load balancing). You create virtual IP to your CISCO loadbalancer. You then configure Cisco to route traffic to each portal application server. If you have CI + 2 appservers, you configure the loadbalancer to send traffic to cihost:port, appserver1:port, appserver2:port. You also create a DNS alias to the virtual IP of the loadbalancer. End users will use the DNS alias to connect your portal. Typically you use standard ports (80 & 443) on Cisco, so that end user URL does not contain any ports (so http traffic goes to port 80, https goes to port 443). You also need to enable cookie persistence on the load balancer for session persistence.
For external facing portal, you need to have your loadbalancer in DMZ and you want to use SSL. You also need to setup firewall rules for your portal and backend servers.

App.server load balancing for SAP System with 1 PS

Hi,
In SAP CPS 7.0 (Build M26.12) I have a SAP system with Central Instance + 10 App.servers, but all instances are managed by 1 ProcessServer.
After activating the "App.server load balancing" setting in SAP system definition the application servers are becoming visible in CPS with their load factors (number of BGD wp's on app.servers) and load numbers (number of active jobs on app.servers).
This is so far fine, but the additional functionality is not working as I would expect, I have issues with 2 functionalities:
1. Based on documentation after activating also the XAL connection the CPS should submit the job on app.server with best performance based on XAL monitoring data filling the TARGET_SERVER parameter.
This functionality is not working for me at all
2. A useful functionality after activating the "App.server load balancing" setting is that the ProcessServer is going to "Overloaded" status when all BGD wp's of SAP system are occupied, thus restricting submitting new jobs during overload situation. But I had an issue also with this functionality, after SAP system recovery from overload situation, the CPS still remained in Overload status (so no new jobs were submitted).
As a workaround I had increased the treshold values for loads on all app.servers for this SAP system, what was fine for several days, but after a while I believe this was a reason of unexpected performance issues in CPS, therefore I have deactivated the 'App.server load balancing" setting at all for this ProcessServer.
I would appreciate your feedbacks with this functionality.
Thanks and Regards,
Ernest Liczki

Hi Preetish,
This connect string option is to loadbalance RFC connections. These are balanced upon login, once you are connected to a particular application server (AS) you stay on that server until you reconnect.
Since CPS uses multiple RFC connections, this will result in the connections being distributed over the available AS resources which is fine as long as they are generally evenly loaded. If you have certain AS hosts that are continuosly more loaded than the rest, then you probably don't want the CPS RFC connections to end up on these servers.
The original question is about loadbalancing of batch jobs over the available AS resources, and this is done independent of the RFC connection load balancing. Even if all CPS RFC connections are pinned to the DB/CI host, you can still loadbalance jobs over the available SAP AS hosts, either by using SAPs builtin balancing, or the CPS algorithm by activating the checkbox as indicated in the first entry in this thread.
Finally, to reply to Ernest's question: I believe there are some fixes on the app load balancing in the latest release, M26.17 should be available on the SWDC now.
Regards,
Anton.

Load balancing for Business Package iviews

Hello Gurus,
we have installed SRM Business packages on our Portal system and accessing the SRM which has 2 application servers.How can we make the iviews to access any one of the application server as the link to ITS in iviews is static.What is the easiest and best approach to get them load balanced using Business Package iviews.
Regards!

Dear G,
As I see your back-end system has 2 app servers... to cofigure the portal iViews to use both app servers you need to define that in the portal system object that is defined to connect to the backend system... You should look if the system object you use for connecting to srm is of the type: "SAP_R3_LoadBalancing"
See also: http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/EN/1f/bddf3d48b05d5ae10000000a11405a/frameset.htm
In addition because you are talking about ITS you could configure a WebDispatcher in front of your Backend SRM system...
Good Luck,
Benjamin Houttuin

Issue in setting Load balancing for Indesign Server CS5.5

Hi All,
I need to set up load balancing mechanism for Indesign Server CS5.5 on Windows Server 2008 R2(64 bit version).
I have dutifully following all steps defined in "WORKING WITH LOAD BALANCING AND QUEUEING FOR ADOBE INDESIGN CS5 SERVER.pdf"
After running Indesign server using batch file "startup-indesign-server-CORBA-4instances.bat" from "<ID_SDK>\samples\load-balancing-and-queuing-clients\indesignserver-startup-scripts", I get only one instance of Indesign Server running. How to run multiple instances of the INDD server ? Is running multiple instance has something to do with type of licensing ?
Now I run Clover.cmd script, I get this screen. I have no idea why its not working. Please help. Please let me know, if the scenario is not clear and more information is required.
Thnx,

CSS Load balancing for Exchange Server

Hi,
I have CSS configured in single arm and I have multiple servers configured for load balancing and it is working fine but when I am configuring Exchange server for load balancing I am facing problem and applications and printer/scanners are not able to send the email through the Virtual IP address configured for exchaneg server.
But if we configured the real server IP in the printer/scanners they are able to send the email. While checking the logs on the exchange server, it is showing that request for the email so coming from the Exchange VIP configured in the CSS.
I can telnet on port 25 on the VIP address (192.168.200.237). But unable to send the email through this VIP.
Below is the configuration

I think this is related to single arm modle or some wrong configuration for the NAT.
Kindly assist me
