Best Practise for multiple SLDs and CMS

Hi Guys,
      We are planning on our XI Landscape, can you guide me to best practices document or weblogs on where it answers my following points.
We are planning to have DEV - QA - PROD XI Boxes. We are planning to implement CMS. What is the optimal approach, pros and cons of each approach.
1) Installing one central SLD which would be either on DEV or QA box. CMS also installed on the same box.
2) Installing two SLDs
    i) one on Dev Box. CMS on Dev Box sharing SLD
    ii) second SLD on QA box which is shared by PROD box which will be the SLD used for production.
<i><b>I would be happy to see responses with any existing landscapes which are being implemented by you guys in case of CMS also in picture.</b></i>
Thanks in Advance
Regards
Sujan

Hi,
In my project we have maitained 2 SLD one for Production landscape and one for non-Production landscape. However the High Availability scenario is available in 7.1 but it is not there in release 7.0.
In case of release 7.0 you have to follow the following procedure to have the similar (HA) kind of scenario:
1). In case of ABAP and dual stack go to SLDAPICUST and maitain two entries for SLD with proper host name, port number and PIAAPLUSER detail.
Make one entry as Primary.
Also if JAVA stack is also there then go to Admin tool and maintain the detail in "HTTP Setting" of the "SLD Data Service" with the data of the primary SLD just maintained above through SLDAPICUST.
2). In case of only JAVA stack maitain the detail in "HTTP Setting" of the "SLD Data Service" with the data of the primary SLD.
Note--Here there is no option to maintain two SLD server details.
3). Now Login to ABAP/+JAVA stack server at the SAP GUI level and check the connection by executing SLDCHECK command. If it works fine then do the following:
     a). Now to make your two SLD in sync login to SLD with Admin user having write access to LCR (e.g. PISUPER, j2ee_admin in case of ABAP+JAVA or "administrator" user in case of JAVA stack) and go to Administration->Data Suppliers->Add SLD.
Here you have to add the other SLD detail in the form of "http://<servername>:<j2eeport>/, with SLDDSUSER ID detail. This will make both the SLD in sync to each other.
Note--Make sure that the password for all the user mentioned above is same in both the SLD otherwise it would cause an error.
   b). Also take the full export of your primary SLD by going through "Administartion->Export" and Import it in your secondary SLD. This will make both the SLD in sync with each other initialy and you won't get any error when both SLD tried to sync automaticaly.
4). In the case when one SLD is down then make the other SLD primary through the transaction "SLDAPICUST", RZ70 and by logging through Admin tool. Check your setting through the transaction SLDCHECK.
Note--In RZ70 you have only one option and you can maitain only one SLD detail at a time. So whenever there is a problem in one SLD make sure that you have make the changes in RZ70 as well with the new detail of the SLD.

Best practise for SAP users who leave the company

Hi
Could anyone reccommend a best practise document or give advice on how to deal with SAP user ID's when employee's/contractors/consultants leave? I am the basis admin just starting an SAP implementation and we have no dedicated authorisation team at the moment, so I have been asked to look into this :
Currently we set the validity date in SU01 to the termination date.
We chack there are no background jobs scheduled under that user id, if there are, we change the job owner to a valid user (we try to run all background jobs under an admin account).
We do not delete the user as from an audit point of view I believe it restricts information you can report on and there are implications on change documents etc, so best to lock it with validity dates.
Can anyone advise further?
We are running SAP ECC 5.0 on Windows 2003 64 Bit/MS SQL 2000.
Thanks for any help.

Hi,
Different people will tell you different versions of what they believe is best practice, but in my opinion you are already doing reasonably well.
What I prefer is
1. Lock ID & set validity date.
2. Assign user to user group LEAVER or EXPIRED or something similar (helps with reporting) out of SUIM/S_BCE* reports.
3. Delete role assignment (should you need it, the role assignment will be in the change history docs anyway).
4. Check background jobs & act accordingly.
For ease of getting info I prefer not to delete the ID though plenty of people do.

Best Practises for File Sharing and Print Server on Windows Server 2012

Is it better to have File Sharing and Print Server installed on the same Windows 2012 Server ?
Or, they should be installed on 2 different Windows Servers ?
Hussien Sherief

It will work just fine to combine them.
But most people would recommend keeping functionality separate... if the budget allows. That whole "single point of failure" concept. If that server dies, you've lost both of those functions.

Best practise in SAP BW master data management and transport

Hi sap bw gurus,
I like to know what is the best practise in sap bw master data transport. For example, if I updated my attributes in development, what are the 'required only' bw objects should I transport?
Appreciate advice.
Thank you,
Eric

Hi Vishnu,
Thanks for the reply but that answer may be suitable if I'm implementing a new BW system. What I'm looking for is more on daily operational maintenance and transport (a BW systems that has gone live awhile).

ECC 6.0 upgrade to Best practise for chemical industry implementation

Dear All.,
Please tell me what all the EHP3 must be updated in the SAP erp ecc 6.0. I have already updated
SAP_APPL 60304.
Tell me what is the next Ehp3 required before i start best practise in saint.
Thanks & Regards,
Manju

Dear sir.,
I have installed SAP ECC 6.0 for a chemical industry, now am planning to implement Best practise to reduce implementation time.
1) As per the SAP Quick quide i have downloaded best practise for chemical industry(IS) and implemented through SAINT, and the prerequisites were maintained as per the SAP notes 774615,1301301,1064635,
2)The above mentioned notes explains minimum stack11 and sapka=18,sapkb=18,sapbw=20,PI_Basis-2005_1_700=20 and sap_ap=15 to update Ehp3 for SAP_APPL603.
3) After updating all the above mentioned patch level i implemented the Best practise in saint and that was successful.
But still the problem persist in activation of BP by tcode /n/smb/bbi only 70% has been completed and activation stoped with *ABAP program error ASSIGNSUBSTRING_NOT_ALLOWED and relevent note is 1295083*_
Please any one tell me, is that required to update all the EHP3 components since i have maintained only SAP_APPL60304.
What all Ehp3 components should be updated to get a smooth activation og BP for chemical industry.

What is the best practise for setting dirty flag of a page/view?

For a page/view, normaylly there are 2 things to do for diry data:
1. when it's clean, Save button is disabled, when it's dirty, save button is enabled.
2. when it's dirty and the window is closed, a popup says "you have unsaved data, close will lose the data".
My thought is: it must be handled at client side, because not all valuechange is auto submitted. E.g., you type the 1st letter of a string in a input box, the server side does not know it, but save button should be enabled immediately.
Is it possible to capture all valueChange events in a page or a view at client side?
I'm not sure what is the best practise for setting dirty flag? If there is better solution? Does ADF provide facility for this?

public void save(ActionEvent event){
boolean formValid = isFormValid();
   if (formValid) {
save button is enabled.
    private boolean isFormValid() {
        boolean valid = true;
        if (Check Condition 1) {
            valid = false;
           showErrorMessage1();
        if (Check Condition 2) {
            valid = false;
           showErrorMessage1();
        return valid;
    private void showErrorMessage1() {
                when it's dirty and the window is closed, a popup says "you have unsaved data, close will lose the data".

Best Practise for connecting to Ethernet based device

Hi,
I have inherited a system where we have a cDAQ-9181 controlling an vehicle access barrier, with a LabView application on a PC talking to it via Ethernet.
(The application is very simple - press a button > send a value to the 9181 unit > opens the barrier )
All works fine most of the time.
( We occasionally get network related errors. The LabView application sometimes thinks another PC has reserved the unit, or gives “error 89130 - device not available for routing” )
The users would now like to be able to easily run the application from a second PC ( not at the same time ), but this seems to be a problem. If I exit the application on PC “A” and run it on PC “B” it struggles to reserve the chassis, and throws the “89130” error and I have to restart the unit via MAC.
While I’m a “veteran” control programmer, I’m new to LabView, and would be very grateful for any pointers on “best practise” for talking to devices via Ethernet, or any specific suggestions for handling multiple PCs talking to a single device.
Thank You.
Tim.

Hi Tim,
Thank you for your post and welcome to the NI forums.
There are lots of knowledgebase articles on our website and you should be able to find documentation for most of our hardware.
There is a good troubleshooting guide for cDAQ Ethernet here (http://ae.natinst.com/public.nsf/web/searchinternal/e67b4e4749f378ff862577270059bd4b?OpenDocument) - it outlines the steps to take to ensure you have a stable a connection as possible. You may have already seen it, but the quick-start guide for your specific device may also be worth consulting for best practices. Are these helpful?
As for using more than one PC - this shouldn't be too much of an issue. I would expect that the resource isn't being closed correctly - when you exit the App on PC 'A', how are you closing off the resource?

Best Practise for rebooting ISE Nodes?

Hello Community,
I administer an ISE installation with two nodes (I am not an ISE Specialist, my job is just to manage the user/mac-adresses... but now I have to move my ISE Nodes from one VMWare Cluster to another VMWare Cluster.
(Both VMWare environments are connected to our enterprise network, but are different environments. vMotion not possible)
I would shutdown ISE02, move it to our new VMWare environment and start it again.
Than I would do this with our ISE01 Node...
Are there any best practises for doing this? (Shutdown application first, stopl replikation etc)?
Can I really simply reboot an ISE Node - or have I consider something bevor I doing this? After I doing this?
Any tasks after reboot?
Thank you for any answer!
ISE01
Administration, Monitoring, Policy Service
PRI(A), SEC(M)
ISE02
Administration, Monitoring, Policy Service
SEC(A), PRI(M)

There is a lot to consider here. If changing environments means changing IP Address and IP Scopes, then your policies, profiles, and dACLs would also have to change among other things. If this is the case, create a new ISE VM in the new environment using the built in evaluation license and recreate the deployment from the old environment using the addressing scheme of the new environment. Then spin-up a new Secondary node and register it on the Primary. Once this is done, you can re-host the license from your old environment onto your new environment. You can use this tool to re-host:
https://tools.cisco.com/SWIFT/LicensingUI/loadDemoLicensee?FormId=3999
If IP Addressing is to remain the same, it gets simpler.
First, and always, perform a configuration and operational backup.
If downtime is not an issue, or if you have a maintenance window of an hour or so: Simply shut down both nodes. Transfer them to the New Environment and turn them on, Primary Node first, of course.
If downtime is an issue, shut down the Secondary Node and transfer it to the New Environment. Start the Secondary Node and when it is up, shut down the Primary Node. Once services on the primary node have stopped, promote the Secondary Node to Primary Node.
Transfer the OLD Primary Node to the New Environment and turn it on. It should assume the role of Secondary Node. If it does not, assign that role through the GUI.
Remember, the correct way to shut down an ISE node is:
application stop ise
halt
By using these commands, the risk of database corruption decreases by about 90% (Remember to always backup).

Best practises for replication

Hi,
I want to know what is best practise for duration of replicaation of database between two Cisco ACS.
Regards,
Atif.

Hi Atif,
The replication time interval should always be higher.
Reason: Everytime you replicate the data it requires ACS services to restart so doing this frequently may affect your production enviroment.
However, if you want to replicate internal user's password then there is an option to replicate password changes right awayvwithout a full replication. You can enable this option under System Configuration -> Local Password Management. With this enabled you could potentially set the replications to a larger interval.
It also depend how often you do changes in your ACS. If its normal then I would say set it to every sunday 12:00 PM.
This is how replication happens:
The primary ACS stops its authentication and creates a copy of the ACSinternal database components that it is configured to replicate. During this
step, if AAA clients are configured properly, those that usually use the primary ACS fail over to another ACS. The primary ACS resumes its authentication service.
After the preceding events on the primary ACS, the database replication process continues on the secondary ACS. The secondary ACS stops its authentication service and replaces its database components with the database components that it received from the primary ACS. During this step, if AAA clients are configured properly, those that usually use the secondary ACS fail over to another ACS. The secondary ACS resumes its authentication service.

APC Back-UPS XS 1300. $169.99 at Best Buy.
Our power outages here are usually only a few seconds; this should give my server about 20 or 25 minutes run-time.
I'm setting up the PowerChute software now to shut down the computer when 5 minutes of power is left. The load with the monitor sleeping is 171 watts.
This has surge protection and other nice features as well.

Wats the best practise for performance

Hi all,
In my out line i have 15 dimensions and for one dimension i have 39000 members so wat is the best practise for performance , If we have more dimensions and more meebers is there any problem for performance
so wat is the best practise for dimensions and members??
Thanks in advance??

If it is ASO application it is not a problem.
If it is a BSO application surely it will hit the performance.
More dimensions will create performance issues.
If the said 39000 members dimension is a Flat dimension. It will be another issue.
If BSO is obvious try to split into two models.
Create intermediate groupings for the Filat dimension.

I've only had my iphone 5s for a week. I keep getting an error message of "Server has stopped responding." I need the server to work. Does anyone know if there is a "fix" for the problem? Other wise, I probably best return for a refund and get a Samsung.

Unlikely. Based on the complete lack of detail of the issue provided it is entirely possible the same issue would occur.
Unless and until the user provides some actual details of the problem, there is nothing the indicate that the issue is with the iPhone.
