Applying communication channel template

Hi
I have some module configurations setup for our EDI file channels. After Upgrade from PI 7.1 to PI 7.11 and changing the metadata from 7.1 to 7.11 all the module configs are lost. Currently i am manually doing all the module configs for all the file channels. I was wondering if i can use the Apply communication channel template option and copy the module configs from other comm channels. I am trying to do that, but i am not able to see the channels from which i have to apply the template.

Hi Kalyan Golla,
Please check [Link1|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nwpi711/helpdata/en/bd/6af766076e384ebdce621d25161184/frameset.htm]
Module Configuration:-
On the Modules tab page, you can preconfigure modules. Note that all modules specified in a communication channel template are treated as a single parameter. This means that if you specify modules in the communication channel template and then use this communication channel template in a channel for which modules are already defined, all modules defined for the channel are overwritten.
[Link2|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nwpi711/helpdata/en/48/d0066d05ae154ee10000000a421937/frameset.htm]
Edit Communication Channel:-
To apply a communication channel template from the Enterprise Services Repository, in the object menu of the communication channel, choose -> Communication Channel -> Apply Template . In the input help, you can select communication channel templates from all software component versions.

Problem in creating new communication channel template in IR

Hi experts,
I currently have problems with creating new communication channel template in Integration Repository. If I choose the New-Context (Adapter Objects-->Communication Channel Template) the dialog "CREATE OBJECT" is shown. After I have inserted the Name of my template I push the create button.
Then the following error occurs:
STOP: Internal error: Object cannot be changed in display mode
DETAILS: Internal error: Object cannot be changed in display mode(CANT_SET_MODIFIED).
So can anybody help me. Thanks for your help.
Best regards.
Mario

Hi Mario,
            This is genral problem appearing in PI 7.0 with SP12.
            Previously, i have the same problem.
            i.e STOP: Internal error: Object cannot be changed in display mode
DETAILS: Internal error: Object cannot be changed in display mode(CANT_SET_MODIFIED)
            Regarding this we raise an OSS note SAP people.
            they gave the suggestion that update with SP13.
          i discuss with basis team and install the SP13.
           now the problem is solved, i can able to create the Communication Channel Template.
Please award points, if it really help to u

Communication Channel Template not used/found?

Hi,
I've created a new integration scenario. Below "adapter metadata" I've created a communication channel template for IDOC. Now if I try to configure my integration scenario I can't find/access/use that predefined communication channel template. I only can choose between the existing communication channel belonging to the business system already used. Why can't I use that communication channel template?
Thanks and regards!

Regarding Integration Scenario and Communication Channel Template

Dear All,
1.What is the purpose of creating Integration Scenario in IR?Is it compulsary to create Integration Scenario in Every Case?(I mean Scenario not using BPM and Scenario using BPM).
2.What is the purpose of creating Communication Channel Template in IR?
3.If we create Communication Channel Template in IR?Do we need to utilize that Communication Channel Template for creating Communication Channel in ID?
4.IF we have created Integration Scenario in IR,and we transfered that Scenario from IR to ID,then Do we need to create Sender Agreement,Receiver Agreement,Receiver Determination,Interface Determination?or will they automatically created?
Please clarify my doubts.Thanks in Advance.
Regards,
Ramana.

Hi Ramana,
1.What is the purpose of creating Integration Scenario in IR?Is it compulsary to create Integration Scenario in Every Case?(I mean Scenario not using BPM and Scenario using BPM).
>>> For graphical overview about the sceanrio.It is not compulsary to create Integration Sceanrio.
2.What is the purpose of creating Communication Channel Template in IR?
>>> In integration scenario while creating the connection between two actions u need to specify the communication channel templates for Sender and Receiver.
3.If we create Communication Channel Template in IR?Do we need to utilize that Communication Channel Template for creating Communication Channel in ID?
>>>You can utilize these templates in ID.After completion to creating the configuration sceanrio need to modify the parameters of the channels.
4.IF we have created Integration Scenario in IR,and we transfered that Scenario from IR to ID,then Do we need to create Sender Agreement,Receiver Agreement,Receiver Determination,Interface Determination?or will they automatically created?
>>> From Tools-->Transfer Integration sceanrio from Integration Repository, From input help choose the sceanrio,Continue and click on Finish ,with the same name the configuration scenaro will create in ID.You need to follow the Confiuration steps like Assign services , here need to choose u r source & target business systems and Configure Connections in this step you can cross check the interfaces,mapping,channel templates involved in this sceanrio and Generate. It would automatically generates Sender Agreement,Receiver Agreement,Receiver Determination,Interface Determination. It would shown to u Generation Log, here you can check what are the objects generated and if there are any errors it would shown Number of errors.
By setting the appropriate channel parameters, activate all objects from change list.Now u can able to test the sceanrio.
However in latest version it is not compulsoary to create Integration sceanrio in IR and to the above things.You can use Configuration Wizard to do all these things or you can do these mauvally.
Hope it will helps to clear u r doubts.

In repository what is the use of communication channel templates

Hi People
what is the use of communication channel templates in integration repository? and when we are using that please tell me the ASAP
Thanks & Regards
shekar

HI,
The communication channel template is for the documentation purpose that will give the information about the sender and receiver communication channels in IR. So No need to goto ID and check the related CCs each time for every scenario.
You can preconfigure a communication channel with a communication channel template. You can use the communication channel template as a template to define a communication channel at configuration time.
If you want to create multiple communication channels with some identical configuration data, you should use a communication channel template.
Thanks
Swarup

Reg: Communication Channel Template

Hi All,
i have done file to file scenario using communication channel template.
What i understood from that is
i created Communication channel Template in IR, and in ID part also then
The sender agreement,receiver agreement,interface determination, receiver determination generated automatically.
is it the only use for Communication channel Template?
Is there any chance to import the Communication channel Template from IR to ID?
Regards,
Ajay

Hi ajay,
Yes this the only use.CCT is the template i.e. its a guide which tells how CC will be in ID.
to better understanding see sachin's weblog..in part 2..... u r doub't will be clear....

Communication channel template

Hello,
Whenever I am trying to use "apply template" in communication channel , I am getting error. When I check the template in the IR , I get the same error.
The template is for SOAP CC
Where i can check the issue?
Regards,
Vinithra

I think you might have imported older version Software Component.
refer this forum thread: Attempt to read object Adapter Metadata from application REPOSITORY
The above might help to solve the problem
Can you also let me know which software component you are trying use the channel template?
Also refer the notes:

Config-time substitution of Communication Channel values

I apologize in advance if this is explained elsewhere (or it's so blindingly obvious that nobody has asked). I promise I looked.
NW04 SP17
Is there a way to do parameter substitution on values defined in a communication channel template, based on the business system that the channel is going to be assigned to at config time?
In case I got the terminology wrong, here's what I want to do. I have some CC templates defined for some SOAP services. In the template definition, I can add Target URL and SOAP Action attributes and assign a value to them that will be available on the config side later on. I want to use this template against a number of technical systems, each of which is going to have a different host portion of the Target URL.
What I would like to have is a way for the CC template to have a 'generic' hostname that is substituted for at config time by the actual hostname of the business system that the channel is going to connect to.
Is there a way to do that? Or is that a stupid question?

Hi Michael,
I think there is a way to do this, depending on the XI SP level.
You might reference the following weblog, which uses the HTTP adapter as an example:
/people/william.li/blog/2006/04/18/dynamic-configuration-of-some-communication-channel-parameters-using-message-mapping
Then, in SAP Help, for JMS receiver config:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/29/5bd93f130f9215e10000000a155106/frameset.htm
Look under "Adapter-Specific Message Attributes" for JMS-specific parameters.

Bill

Missing adapter "templates" - am not able to create communication channel

Hi guys!
I need to create communication channel in the Directory, but I can't, because if I want to select channel type (soap, http, ...) I get screen with information: No objects found.
What could be wrong?
Thanx a lot for answer!
Olian

Olian,
In the Integration Repository, you should have a software component SAP BASIS, which contains the adapter metadata. If this is not there, you should import the software component according to the installation guide:
Importing the XI Content for Software Component Version SAP Basis 6.40 SR1
1. Copy XI3_0_SAP_BASIS_6.40_09_00.tpz from <Components DVD>/XI /XI_CONTENT to directory /usr/sap/<SAPSID>/SYS/global/xi/repository_server/import/
2. On your SAP XI host, call transaction SXMB_IFR.
3. Choose Repository (Design).
4. Choose → Tools → Import Design Objects
2. Choose the file /usr/sap/<SAPSID>/SYS/global/xi/repository_server/import XI3_0_SAP_BASIS_6.40_09_00.tpz
5. Import the file.

Mailserver communication channel polling twice

Hi, we are using a mailserver communication channel. When an order is sent, it is received in the R3 system twice.
Upon investigation, we have noticed that the system is connecting twice to the mailserver.
Does anybody know any solution on why this is happening?

Hi Seshu,
this is because system had a lack of resources or some threads were blocking
the XI adapter engine from working properly. Therefore,
- Please check if MaxThreadCount parameter is set to 350 in the Visual
Administrator, as per steps below:
1. In the left frame choose Server -> Services -> Configuration Adapter
2. In the tab Display Configuration (right frame) choose Switch
between view and edit mode to activate the edit mode.
3. Choose cluster_data -> server -> cfg -> kernel -> Propertysheet
ApplicationThreadManager
4. Choose Show the detail of the selected node
5. The parameter MaxThreadCount must be set to 350.
6. Restart the J2EE after changing the value.
For more information, please refer to the note #937159 - XI Adapter
Engine is stuck
- Please increase the consumer threads for the related adapter
according to the note below.
#1084161 - Performance decrease after applying XI 3.0 SP20 7.0SPS12
In order to check this parameter, go to the Config Tool
-> server
-> services
-> com.sap.aii.af.svc service
-> messaging.connectionDefinition
-> add the template below for the required adapter type (maintain the
global and add the template separated by a comma). The example below
is for the File adapter.

Error in HTTP_AAE receiver communication channel, PI 7.4 dual stack

Dear Experts,
I am facing the below certificate error in HTTP_AAE receiver communication channel while using the third party (bank) private key. Third party bank server is HTTPS enabled, moreover they have generated the public and private keys on their server, and they shared the corresponding private keys in .p12 format to us. Our scenario in SAP PI is synchronous ABAP Proxy to HTTP_AAE, when I see the message in SXMB_MONI after testing, we get he below certificate error, though we have provided the correct path from keystorage view and keystorage entry in HTTP_AAE receiver communication channel
“com.sap.aii.adapter.http.api.HttpAdapterException: ERROR_SENDING_HTTP_REQUEST, sun.security.validator.ValidatorException: PKIX path building failed: sun.security.provider.certpath.SunCertPathBuilderException: unable to find valid certification path to requested target”
We have imported the private key provided by bank in Netweaver admin key storage, by following the below steps.
NWA -> Certificates -> Key Storage -> TrustedCA->Import Entry->Entry Type->PKCS#12 Key Pair->select the .p12 file->import.
Please see the attached doc for related screenshots.
Please experts help me experts as this is on high priority from client, also suggest me if I am doing anything wrong here.
Thanks,
Farhan

Hi Farhaan,
do you have only one certificate or multiple certificate? HTTPS can have 2 or 3 certificates (Root, Intermediate [optional, if any 3rd party person is there in the middle then we can get this certificate] and system certificates).
The issue is with the certificate and it can be because All the certificate is not present or path is not correct.
Please refer the below wiki in which solution is given for this peroblem.
Troubleshooting 7.1 - End-User Experience Monitoring - SCN Wiki
The similar issue is resolved by applying SP level patch, please refer the below discussion

Can you tell me the name of this process that causes this conflict?
Then I could disable the virus scanner for this process!!

Communication channels do not appear in RWB

Dear experts,
I am using PI 7.1, after creating some communication Channels for my scenarios, although they appear in the ABAP system (sxi_cache), they do not appear in the RWB.
And when i choose the menu Cache Status Overview in ID, it shows the error below:
"Unable to determine the name of the central Adapter Engine from the System Landscape Directory at this time. Notifications to the central Adapter Engine are therefore listed using the technical name of the Adapter Engine. This is usually structured as follows: af.<SAP System ID>.<Name of application server>"
Pls show me where i am wrong.
Thanks in advance.
Thien Duong.
