Application lifecycle management in J dev 11 ?

will J dev 11 production version have application lifecycle management tool such as rational, MS team server etc.?
(In our opinion it is beneficial. )
If not (it means complete solution is not included) which ALM features production version will have ?
Thanks...

is it planned for future?
can you recommend a ALM tool to use with jdev. (especilly open source).
What is development lifecyle include? is development lifecycle include development team menagement, developer's task management, change management, project mangement....

HP Application LifeCycle Management - URL for use with another Project Management Tool

I'm trying to find a way to get a ALM Requirement URL that will work with other applications. The URL from the COPY URL option (when right-clicking on the requirement) works for e-mails but I can't seem to get it to work for another project management application (Daptiv). We would like to insert the QC Requirement link to another application where the user can access the requirements directly when clicking on the QC hyperlink.
We have HP Application Lifecycle Management Software Version 11.00 Enterprise Edition.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

As Abhishek mentioned we dont need a calc manger or EPMA to migrate classic planning applications. You just need to log into shared services, expand file system and take a file system export, paste the export to the destination environment, now use it as a source and perform an import in the shared services of destination server. It worth having a look at:

NetApp IT: Why Application Lifecycle Management is Integral to a Cloud Strategy

Data is king, especially when an IT shop tries to decide what, where, when, and how to store it. Should it be on-premises? In the cloud? Applications may change, but the data they create has enduring value. A critical consideration in this process is understanding how data is being moved between storage locations and the role of application lifecycle management in this process.

Awesome post! Modern application development practices such as agile development, continuous integration (CI), and continuous delivery (CD) will play a key role in reducing time-to-market of new systems, services, features and products.

Unable to add transport route in HANA Application Lifecycle Management (XS)

Hi There,
When we are using HANA LM to create transport routes then routes are created but straight away it comes with following error message:
Internal Error: Transport Route(s) could not be retrieved.
We have checked that required roles are assigned to user. Roles are
sap.hana.xs.lm.roles::ExecuteTransport
or
sap.hana.xs.lm.roles::Administrator
Same works in DEV and PROD environment. I ran debug in Chrome and found that it is throwing an error when trying to run following:
http://XXXX:portnumber/sap/hana/xs/lm/core/transport.xsjs?enrich=true&_=XXXXXXX
After looking in HANA studio I have found that transport.xsjs has got following function which will throw above error on exception:
function retrieveTransport(req, res) {
if(!utils.checkForPrivileges(res, [ "sap.hana.xs.lm::Display"])){
    return;
var item = utils.getItem(req.path);
var enrich = req.parameters.get("enrich");
var deleted = req.parameters.get("removed");
try {
    if (typeof item === 'undefined') {
      var transportRoutes = trans.readAllTransports(deleted);
      if (enrich) {
        enrichTransportRoutes(transportRoutes,deleted);
      utils.setNoCacheHeaders(res);
      res.contentType = 'application/json';
      res.setBody(JSON.stringify(transportRoutes));
      res.status = $.net.http.OK;
    } else {
      // retrieve transport path id
      var tpath = trans.readTransport(item);
      if (!tpath) {
        utils.reportError(res, null, utils.getText("TRANSPORT_ID_INVALID", item));
      } else {
        res.contentType = 'application/json';
        res.setBody(JSON.stringify(tpath));
        res.status = $.net.http.OK;
} catch (ex2) {
    utils.reportError(res, null, utils.getText("ROUTES_NOT_RETRIEVED"), ex2.toSource());
Please see attached chrome console log for more info:
I am able to retrieve information about this but I am not sure what is causing this. Your help will be really appreciated.

Application Lifecycle management

Supose application A (a sort of application manager) starts application B. After some time the user exits application B, and B destroys itself by calling destroyXlet.
Is it then still possible to start application B from within A or will the user need to zap away and back again? Because MHP spec says that a destroyed application, can never be restarted.
How can I pass on Objects from A to B? Can I use the DVBParameters for this or should I use a IXC or RMI solution?
Thanx

The solution for passing objecs from A to B depenps on the complexity of the information you want to transmit.
If you just want to send some kind of startup parameters, i would suggest using AppProy.start(String[] args).
But if you need two-way communication or want to transfer complex objects, you should have I look at IXC.

Application Lifecycle manager

Hi,
I have a question on the setup of change management with ALM.
We have a DEV , QAS, PRD architecture(HANA DB only) and we want to be able to transport changes between the systems using DUs (change transports) with ALM. We have been able to set up the transport route between DEV and QAS. However since the PRD system isnt up yet, the transport route is not created between DEV and PRD.
My question is: If we begin development in DEV and have the initial objects assigned to a change ID, will these also be available for transport to PRD when the PRD route is setup later? Or will these change IDs not be visible to the newly created transport route since they were created before the transport route came up?
Thanks.

The user needs rights on the "Promotion jobs" folder as well, have you given him that right

Additional language for lifecycle manager XI 3.1 SP3

Hello, Experts.
I have lifecycle manager XI 3.1. I would like to transfer reports, connections and etc. from dev to test and prod in landscape, but my reports have Russian language. In Promotion Jobs i see "????????????????" instead of Russian names.
How can i installed additional language for LCM XI 3.1?
I have installed SP3, but it didn't help me, In folders of SP3 and SP4 i see, that folders with name RU, DE and etc. is empty. Language pack is present only in EN folder.
Please, help me.
Regards,
Denis

JC:
It would be good to know information on distributed deployments;
such as how to handle upgrades on machines that are distributed/firewalled off..and HA machines..etc..
More information needed on Unix deployment, I always find the guides are weak when it comes to unix information.
Also: There needs to a way to communicate clearly; the upgrade scenarios.
The table of that information was good in the past.
Example: IF you are on SP1...then do this
if you are on SP2 then do this
if you are on SP1 with any FP do this..etc...
As many installation scenario that can be covered in a TABLE should be presented...that way you get customer types.
ALSO; Information about deployments with SAP customers (BW or ECC)..duh..that is obvious, the SP3 materials should have tons on that, but it's lacking.
Personally I think there should be a separate SAP IK SP3 upgrade GUIDE!!! why not.....BOBJ and SAP are one right...why not provide MORE info for your customers that are hybrid (SAP + BOBJ)...
Thanks,
Dwayne Thomas

BusinessObjects Enterprise Lifecycle Manager (LCM) Tool - Feedback?

Lifecycle Manager Feedback Requested
Do you use the Life-Cycle Management (LCM) tool introduced with BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 3.1?
We're seeking feedback!
Any new features or enhancements you'd like to see in the tool, please go here:
[http://lcm.uservoice.com/]
Log on, add your ideas, and vote on the ideas already there!
Sincerely,
Ted Ueda

Hi
I am currently testing the BO LCM 3.1 and while it appears very easy to use especially for promotion, the Version Control Manager seems to be lacking in controls and a clear promotion path from dev to test to uat to prod.
We have set up 2 identical environments for UAT and PROD.
And using the Version Control part of LCM creating version control for a universe.
Logged into VM in UAT
We have selected a universe
Added it to VM
Made a change to the universe in Designer
Exported it
Then Checked it in
Can now see 2 versions in the history and the VMS Version. All good
I then click on swap system and log into PROD
The VM history is also there in PROD
I have a number of concerns and questions and can't seem to find the solution to them anywhere.
1. VM seems to be lacking a controlled process from all the environments. Basically we want to deploy following this path;
Dev - Test - UAT - PROD
There does not seem to be any controls or security which would stop you from GET VERSION from the DEV environment and putting that straight into PROD. Obviously we would not want that to happen.
We would only want to GET VERSION from UAT
Similarly for UAT We would only want to GET VERSION from TEST
And for TEST We would only want to GET VERSION from DEV.
Granted, we currently only have 2 identical environments.
But Is there controls that would stop you when in PROD from getting versions from any other system other than UAT?
Also is there any reason why no promotion is required when using VM.
This seems to negate the Promotion Function of the LCM
Any advise would be greatly appreciated with this.
Many thanks

BW Publisher + Lifecycle Manager + Import Wizard Repository Objects

Hi,
I would like to ask advice about moving reports from a for example a QA to Production enviornment.
BW 3.5, BOXI 3.1 (SP1 currently / possibly SP2 )
I have reports which have been published using BW Publisher which have Parameters populated by BW.
I have other reports which have parameters which are populated by Business Views.
I have reports which are a combination of BW Queries and a Universe built upon a SQL server 2008 Database.
I have tried publishing the Report using the (NON SAP) Universe via BW Publisher and I get an error.
Also I realise that the BW publisher will not move the Business Views Repository Objects and NON SAP Universe to the Production Enviornment.
What is your suggestion regarding moving these reports?
I can only think that some reports will be moved using BW Publisher and others using the LIfeCycle Manager.
Am I correct in assuming that LCM will not move BW Published reports to the new Business Objects Installation correctly (because they will point to the BW Server which originally published them. Can the Schedule Manager perhaps not take care of this for me?
Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks
Nicole

Thank you all for your replies
I have other reports which have parameters which are populated by Business Views.
<h5> I had issues moving these with LCM and even the Import wizard which I eventually only resloved by Moving the Business Views and LOVs using Business View Manager Import and Export wizard - I still had to map LOV to the objects within the existing business views but got them working!
The reports (even the ones using business views) ran correctly (except for Parameters - see below) after transporting using the BW Publisher and Content Administration Workbench</h5>
I have reports which are a combination of BW Queries and a Universe built upon a SQL server 2008 Database.
<h5> Have not tested yet but managed to transport using SAP Transport </h5>
I have reports which have been published using BW Publisher which have Parameters populated by BW.
<h5>Ironically here is where I have an issue
I am having an issue with Report Parameters:
Dev Server: BW publisher / Infoview populates Parameters LOV at run time.
QA Server: only static parameters are shown.
Both servers should have identical software BOE 3.1 and SAP Integration Kit 3.1
Both Servers have BW Publisher configured and I am publishing from the Content Administrator Workbench.
The only difference I can think of in Terms of the servers is that Reports were published to DEV using SAP Menu in Crystal Reports and on QA I transported the Reports from DEV and THEN published them in QA.
Authorizations are also different u2013 in DEV I have Sap_All and in Dev I have a role.</h5>
I was also having issues getting "My Groups" to appear in Infoview but this is resloved and I believe was due to authorisations and roles - not having the correct one.
I am installing SP2 on a 3rd server to test if the issue would be resolved.
Tell me does BW require a different transport to communicate with a BOE server installed with SP2?
Kind Regards,
Nicole

Hi there,
Where can we download LifeCycle Manager? I'm looking for it on SWDC but I can't find anything.
We're working with BO Edge 3.1
Thanks and best regards,

Hi David,
try this one: [http://service.sap.com/installations]
Navigate to +Entry by Application Group->SAP BusinessObjects Packages and Products->SBOP LIFECYCLE MANAGER]. If one of the above entries is not visible you should issue an OSS message to SAP support requesting access to the product.

CLM ( Contract lifecycle management

Hi
I have a few quries regarding CLM( Contract LifeCycle Management)
1) CLM is Standard module in SAP ECC 6.0.
2) if 'NO' what are the additional features with respect to standard Outline Agreement ( Contract/Scheduling Agreement)
3) If it is complete different module , how can we integrate?
please suggest.
Regards

CLM is not a module, it's an application. As per SAP website "The SAP Contract Lifecycle Management (SAP CLM) application supports your company's entire contract management process. The application supports all contract types and can integrate with back-end systems in support of contract compliance.
By enabling proactive management of all aspects of the contract life cycle, SAP CLM will help you:
Accelerate time to contract through automated contract creation and collaboration
Lower legal, financial, and regulatory risk through standardized language and reporting
Protect your company's bottom line
Realize full savings and revenue through contract visibility and awareness
Ensure more control and better compliance throughout the contract life cycle via system integration, alerting, and reporting"

What/Where is the Value Lifecycle Manager (VLM)

What/Where is the Value Lifecycle Manager (VLM)
I was just reviewing an ASUG presentation from Soledad Alvarado Ganzhorn of SAP NetWeaver Product Management at SAP Labs. It describes a value lifecycle manager tool that includes:
&#56256;&#56457;Value Discovery content includes: Interview Questions, Pain Points, Best Practices, Solution Enablers, Value Drivers & KPI's, and Data Requests
&#56256;&#56457; A Knowledge Management Platform Retrieve and Enter content
&#56256;&#56457; A Highly Flexible and Customizable Business Case Building and Reporting Platform
&#56256;&#56457; Used by Value Engineers, Solution Engineers, ISG, Partners and others
Is anyone aware if SAP is using this tool already? Will customers get access to it? This sounds like a replacement for the business case builder which I haven't seen either. It would be nice if customers had access to these sorts of discovery tools. Since we don't utilize SAP consulting, we are often not able to access this content as we initiate new initiatives. It would be nice to have access as it seems like we are internally selling their software for them.

The tool is available. It is at the following URL:
https://sapvalueengineering.com/VLM2/client.page
SAP has nominated select Partners that have access to the tool. You can probably check with the SAP partner relationship manager in your organization to see if you have access to this tool.

LifeCycle Manager: The kind 'Note' does not exist in the CMS

Hi there,
I'm trying to promote a Crystal Report from one relatively fresh XI 3.1 environment to another fresh XI 3.1 environment (TEST to PROD) using LifeCycle Manager, and for this report, which has no dependencies, I get the following error when I do a Test Promote or actual Promote:
Commit Status=Commit attempted and failed, Promotion Status=Failure : com.businessobjects.lcm.utilities.LCMException: com.businessobjects.sdk.biar.exception.XSDException$UnknownKindException: The kind 'Note' does not exist in the CMS. (FWM 04030)
Has anyone encountered anything similar to this? I can't find any InfoObject that logically relates to the type/kind 'Note'. Perhaps it has to do with discussions?
Thanks,
Allan

Hi,
Can you try promoting it with the security option enabled.
Based on the error condition it seems that the discussion plugin does not exist in the destination system.

A note on Setup Manager - Application Change Management Pack

Hi All,
This is Mugunthan, Development manager for iSetup and Setup Manager. I am happy to begin my note with the launch of Application Change Management Pack 3.1. For those who are not aware of Application Change Management Pack, it is a new product built on top of Oracle Enterprise Manager and comprises of three major modules namely Setup Manager, Customization Manager and Patch Manager. You can find more information about this pack here (LCM: Oracle Application Change Management Pack Setup Manager is enhanced and advanced version of iSetup on Oracle Enterprise Manager. There were good amount of reasons to re-architect iSetup on Oracle Enterprise Manager as Setup Manager.
Why Setup Manager?
Ability to migrate to data over point releases of EBS – EBS comes up with rollup patches on top of major releases periodically. It means that you have to certify the patch before it get deployed on to production which means that setup data are to be certified again. iSetup cannot connect between 12.0.4 to 12.0.6 or 12.0.6 to 12.1.1. We have achieved the data migration for above scenarios in Setup Manager (11i to R12 is not supported in Setup Manager)
Projects – Setup Manager supports grouping of Extracts, Transforms, Loads and Reports as a single entity and can be deployed multiple times to multiple targets. The project consists of one or more tasks (of type Extract/Load/Transform/Report) and can be orchestrated according to your ends. Project execution supports scheduling which means that you can use this feature to sync up setup data between two instances at periodic internal. Projects can be shared with other users which is remarkable difference between iSetup and Setup Manager. You can share your projects with others in a combined development environment. The functional configuration data (Extracts) are stored in Oracle Enterprise Manager. This means that you can refresh EBS without losing Extracts.
Integration with Change Approval mechanism – Execution of projects is integrated with change approval mechanism which means that you can control who executes what. Also, you have fine grain access control where you can control EBS targets assigned to a user.
Offline Transformation – I would say this is the most unique feature of Setup Manager and as an implementer you would welcome this feature very much. iSetup has got very limited capability on Transformation. Here we have gone way ahead and support Transformation on almost all Setup Objects. We present you the extracted data in excel sheets. You can download the excel template and work offline. All the attribute value fields in the excel sheet are editable which means that you supply your own value. For example, you can download Operating Unit data in xls file and change operating unit “OU100” to “OU200” and upload it back to system and load to target instance. Please note that any attribute of Operating Unit setup data can be edited. Also, system has got intelligence and once you upload the excel sheet, it automatically changes all the inventory organization which belongs to “OU100” to “OU200”. This behavior can be controlled using attribute mapping which you can create in Setup Manager. Hold on, this is not the end, also you can add more operating unit in excel, say OU300 and OU400 and load it to target instance. You can delete few Operating Units from extracted data in excel sheet and load the remaining to target instance. This gives you complete flexibility to manage (add/edit/delete) functional configuration data offline. This is fantastic feature and please have a look at how it works.
Advanced Filtering – Filter support in iSetup is not flexible where you cannot use comma separated values and complex sql join conditions. Also you do not know what query is executed behind the scenes to the data. All this problems are addressed in Setup Manager 3.1. We show you the “select clause” (SQL) associated with interface and provide you a text field where you can refer the select clause and provide your own custom where criteria (SQL). This means that filter support is unlimited and you can set filter any database columns. For example, you can extract “Responsibilities/Menu” which are active or created as on yesterday. You can extract all Operating Units excluding “OU100 and OU200”. We support all filter criteria that are supported by SQL.

Hi,
your note very interesting. Is there any other way to extract the configuration using SQL? not using Enterprise Manager? hope this will be fastest way then using GUI base.
Thanks,
Fahmi Fahlevi
