Quality Gate Management - new features in SPS 23 but no documentation

Dear SDN Members,
After an update to SPS 24, we noticed 2 new buttons in a Quality Gate project:
- Reassign Transport Requests
- Distribute Transport of Copies
I can imagine the functionality of both by deduction from what is available in CHaRM.
It is nevertheless impossible to find further documentation.
So, any help on how to configure and / or use these functions will be appreciated.
Regards.

Hello Jos,
please see the below links:
for a global introduction:
https://websmp203.sap-ag.de/e2e -> change control management : Quality Gate Management
for a detailed documentation
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_smehp1/helpdata/en/b3/64c33af662c514e10000000a114084/frameset.htm
-> Under Change Request Management and Change Management click on Quality Gate Management
- Reassign Transport Requests
- Distribute Transport of Copies
are two functionalities that existed even before Quality Gate concept. Those were available in tasklists and change documents of Change Request Management of Solman.
You ll definitely find more info on both on this forum by sarching transport of copie and transport request reassignment.
One more thing : for the reassignment of TR; it does nt allow you moving a TR from a Solman project to another. It only let you assign an open (modifiable) in a dev satelilite system to a CTS project (linked to a Solman Project) so you can manage its release and import from Solman
Hope this helps

Quality Gate Management workflow

Hi Gurus,
I have successfully implemented Quality Gate Management POC for a 4 System Landscape.I have few questions.
My questions are:
1. Can we have control on moving only block of change requests at any specific point of time to PRODUCTION
For Eg: Let us suppose there are 50 Change Requests which are pending to move to PRODUCTION. Can I move only 25 Change Requests at a specific time and the other 25 at some other time to PRODUCTION instead of moving all the 50 at a time (the option START IMPORT will move all the CHANGE REQUESTS into PRODUCTION at one time)? I am able to move only specific block of Change Requests from DEV to QUALITY. But not from QUALITY to PRODUCTION.
2. Is there any possibilty of using the CROSS SYSTEM OBJECT LOCKING in QGM without using CHARM?
Thanks,
Sandeep

Waiting for replies

Sandeep

Question about Quality Gate Management

Hi Solman profis,
I have questions about the transport requests in QGM.
My Solution Manager is 7.1.
I have a Solman project, in which I activated QGM and created a Change and created two transport requests (one workbench, one customizing) attached to it, .
I'm little bit confused by the concept.
My questions are:
1. Why I cannot see the transport requests that I created previously in the DEV system manually? If it's normal, for which reason is this designed like this? If it's not normal, how can I configure to see those requests?
2. What is the difference between the Change here in QGM and the Change in ChaRM?
3. In practice, how should the transport requests be created? By the developer in DEV systems, or by the responsibles in Solution Manager Workbench (Change Management Workbench)?
Thanks a lot!

Edited by: Charlie Red on Feb 13, 2012 12:09 PM

For the 3rd question, I think TRs should be created in Change Management Workcenter, is it the correct process?
For the other questions, can somebody give some input?

Difference in Transport Request in SOLAR_PROJECT_ADMIN & Quality Gate

Hi
I want to ask about how Quality Gate works in an Implementation Project??
How a quality manager role comes in action?? how a project is transported into landscape??
What is the difference in creating transport request from SOLAR_PROJECT_ADMIN and creating Transport request from Quality Gate Management in Change Management Workcenter???
Please guide
Thanks & Regards

Hi,
check this
http://sap.ittoolbox.com/groups/technical-functional/sap-solution-manager/where-are-uploaded-office-documents-physically-stored-in-sap-2647587?cv=expanded
as per above link u can try with option
1.
use Tcode - SOLAR_PROJECT_ADMIN
1. Select the project in the project overview.
2. Choose the Transport Project pushbutton or Project ® Transport.
3. Specify the transport scope in the following dialog box. To transport the project without project documentation, reset the With Notes flag. The project documentation is transported by default.

Quality Gate MGMt

Hallo colleagues
My company would like to start using Quality Gate Management functionality but we don`t have any expertise in this component, do you have any doc or note that shows how to configure this task ?

Is CTS+ configuration a prerequisite to Quality Gates ?

Hello,
I have heard that CTS+ has to be configured first before I can configure Quality Gates on my Solution Manager system.
Does anyone know if this is true?
Thanks,
Judith

Dear Judith,
According to SAP Note 1256490 it states TMS has to be activated.
So this would cover ABAP systems.
The Note also makes reference to Note 1256490 - regarding an issue for NON-ABAP systems and CTS+,
which would indicate that TMS is the prerequisite transport for ABAP systems, but it can be infered for
non-ABAP systems CTS+ is the required transport.
Hope this helps.

Paul

Where do I find the "Node Manager" service?

Can anyone tell me where to find the "Node Manager Service" In Call Manager 5.1.2 or IPCC 4.5?
My db_CRA database in IPCC is not updating the real time ICD statistics table and Bug CSCsc09160 seems to indicate that stopping and starting the "Node Managers" may fix the issue.
From the bug report:
Symptom:
Under the db_cra two tables (RtCSQsSummary and RtICDStatistics) are not updating. They stop updating concurrently with engine failovers and reboots. Only a hard reboot or a
service failover brings them back into an active state.
When the RtCSQsSummary and RtICDStatistics tables do update on the
primary DB they do not update on the secondary DB and the data on them
doesnt get refreshed.
Conditions:
stopping Node manager on node 1, data fails to be written to node 2. Then when we start NM back up on node 1 data is still not written to either data store
Workaround:
Not much as a workaround, because the solution requirs stop on both Node
Managers and bring up node 1 first and the data starts writing to DB
again.
Thanks,
Brian

Sven,
The reference to Session Manager is more of a concept of operations versus an entity. The portion of code that you copied and pasted in your post is actually part of the verbiage used in an ASP script that BusinessObjects expects you to create in order for you to obtain your objective. You can use this coding to create your own customized script or you might be able to search around on the web for a more complete solution.

Solution Manager Service Desk: BC sets

Hi,
While configuring the SolMan Service Desk Scenario (in IMG activities) "Basic BC Sets for Configuration" few doubts I have:
1. This list of BC Sets need to be done on each Client (Devp / QA & Prd)? with reference to Note: 898614
SOLMAN40_SDESK_BASICFUNC_000
SOLMAN40_SDESK_ACT_ADVCLOSE_001
SOLMAN40_SDESK_ACTIONLOG_001
SOLMAN40_SDESK_TPI_ACT_AST_001
2. Can I change the Production system role while activating BC Sets On that Client?
3. Due to some reasons if i missed to change the role from Producation to XYZ and activated, is there will be any impact on the system?
Please suggest me on the above points.
Thanks & Regards,
Jose

Hi,
refer to following notes.
These BC sets actually carry out some standard setting across your system.
Note 898614 - Solution Manager Service Desk: BC sets
Note 931196 - New text types for Service Desk in SAP Solution Manager

Query relating to the creation of Managed Service Accounts

Hi Folks
I am studying for my 70-411 exam and have a query relating to the creation of Managed Service Accounts.
I have successfully created an MSA account named 'MSATest' on a DC using:
new-adserviceaccount -name msatest –dnshostname home-dc-01 -passthru
and
add-AdcomputerServiceAccount -identity home-ap-01 -serviceaccount msatest -passthru
However the guide that I am using now says that I now need to run: Install-ADServiceAccount on the host computer in the domain to install the MSA in order to make available it available for use by services.
So on my member server (home-ap-01) I have installed the Active Directory Module for powershell and ran:
PS C:\Users\administrator.PCECORP> Install-ADServiceAccount -Identity msatest
Install-ADServiceAccount : Cannot install service account. Error Message: 'An
unspecified error has occurred'.
At line:1 char:1
+ Install-ADServiceAccount -Identity msatest
+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    + CategoryInfo          : WriteError: (msatest:String) [Install-ADServiceA
   ccount], ADException
    + FullyQualifiedErrorId : InstallADServiceAccount:PerformOperation:Install
   ServiceAcccountFailure,Microsoft.ActiveDirectory.Management.Commands.Insta
llADServiceAccount
PS C:\Users\administrator.PCECORP>
However this errors, Have I misunderstood the purpose of the Install-ADServiceAccount ? or am I doing something wrong?
Thanks in advance for you help.

Try using -RestrictToSingleComputer parameter when creating service account with New-ADServiceAccount.
Gleb.
Hi Gleb
Thank you for your help, it is appreciated. That did the trick.
All the best.

A problem with email alerts in management services of Azure portal

Hi,
I have created an alert with email notification on a custom performance counter using the management services of Azure portal.
Currently the alert is in active state (and has been so for several hours), but i haven't received any email.
Can someone please advise on this issue?
Thanks,
Roi

Do you have an endpoint for the service. To enable endpoint monitoring, go to the
dashboard page for the associated resource and edit the
Endpoints setting in the
monitoring section, see figure 1. If you have an endpoint, try disabling and enabling the alert in the management tab.

Thread of the Necro-Dancer:
Regardless, the step Katie was apparently implying (but seems to be missing from her description) is the bit where you backup the database and restore it to a separate instance. after this is done, you can then install a new management server targeting this
new instance, and then promote the new management server to the workflow server, and run the isolated database using the new management server.
i would recommend, however, that you use
the supported method of producing a upgrade lab with production data, which is very similar to the method Katie implied, includes directions covering all of these steps involved, and allows you to periodically restore production data to the lab database
with minimal overhead.
I didn't notice the date before now. I just look at the latest unanswered posts, so not sure how I got into this one. But technet has been acting weird lately. I get an internal server error far too often.

Group managed service accounts for SQL Server

Hey guys,
Unfortunately I missed that (g/s)MSAs aren't supported yet for SQL Servers but I'm using them without any worries since ages.
As i digged a bit deeper I could find different informations due to the related TechNet entrys. So it seems Microsofts Informations about (s)MSAs and gMSAs aren't consistent.
I'm not a SQL Server guy and use SQL only for System Center testing stuff so i would like to get a real world exps of SQL Server guys.
Should I continue using gMSAs or are there any worries I should know?
some sources I found so far:
Not supported:
"Hi Adam,
Thank you for your feedback. Windows Server 2012 Group Managed Service Account is not currently supported as SQL 2012 released earlier than Windows Server 2012. We will consider to support gMSA in future SQL Server release.

Min He, Program Manager, SQL Server"

gMSA are not yet available, are not yet supported for SQL Server. gMSA exist and are available and supported in Windows Server 2012 and higher.  SQL does not support them , but
from an OS perspective, they exist and are supported.

others sources won't mentioning s/gMSAs...
I couldn't find clear informations about using gMSA for SQL Server 2014.

Hi Enrico
aside from what Dan says about the risk for support, on which I agree, the following thread may clear it up a bit:

SBS Manager Service will not start

I seem to have a bit of a problem the SBS manager service will not start at all. I have tried rebuilding the SBS Monitoring database and this did not help. This started happening a few months after a SBS 2008 to SBS 2011 migration, does anyone have any ideas
as I no longer get reporting or alerts.
At first I thought it might have had something to do with permissions but not too sure how to check and what to check apart from the common things, DB permissions, permissions on folders etc but I may have missed something?

Hi,
Regarding the current issue, since you have tried to rebuild the SBS monitoring database without any help, I suggest we could try to refer to the following article this time to see if it works.
FAQ: SBS 2011. The Windows SBS Manager service terminated unexpectedly
