Cannot See Transfer Rules in Transport Connection

Question

Hello,
I have searched Notes and Forums and have not found a solution for this!
I performed some configuration in our newly upgraded BI system. We
were on BW 3.5 and upgraded to BI 7.0
We also change how our landscape was interconnected.
Our BW Dev system used to connect to our R3 Sandbox system.
Now our BIDev system connects to our ECC Dev system.
This is the first project i have worked on since the upgrade was
successful. What I am finding is that I get the following transport
error when I look at the STMS logs from BID to BIQ.
Transport Error
Start of the after-import method RS_ISTS_AFTER_IMPORT for object type(s) ISTS (Activation Mode)
There is no DataSource with these attributes
Reference to transfer structure 1_CO_PA2900010_DS_BA not available.
No activation possible.
Here are the details when I click to get more info on the error message:
Reference to transfer structure 1_CO_PA2900010_DS_BA not available. No
activation possible.
Message no. RSAR436
Diagnosis
Transfer structure 1_CO_PA2900010_DS_BA should be transported into this
system.
However, no DataSource mapping refers to this transfer structure.
System Response
The transfer structure was not activated or deleted.
Procedure
Ensure that DataSource mapping, with a reference to the transfer
structure 1_CO_PA2900010_DS_BA is on the same transport request. Use
the transport connection to create a consistent request.
Wierd Behavior
The big issue now is that when i go to the transport connection in RSA1
and I want to collect Transfer Rules, I see a small subset of all the
transfer rules I would expect to see. I am looking specifically for
the transfer rules: 1_CO_PA2900010_DS PCDEVC200
Similiar behavior occurs when i am looking for "3.x DataSources" in the
transport connection
I can see these rules in other areas of RSA1 such as Infosources.
Please assist with finding these transfer rules in the Transport
connection.
Other then this transport both ECC and BI system landscapes are up and running normally.
Please help
Thanks!
Nick

Answer 1

Bryan,
Thanks for jumping onto this thread.  I am going to complete the transports and see if i have any system name conversion issues to address.  I may need some guidance on ensuring that BID, BIQ and BIP have the correct entries in RLOGSYSMAP.
To answer your questions:
1. Was the new source system added as an additional source system or was the R/3 Sandbox source system renamed?
Bryan: The new source system was added by renaming the R/3 Sandbox source system/Executing BDLS.  The original source system was PCSNDC200, and we BDLS'd that to PCDEVC200.
2. To what Source system do the transfer Rules belong to that you are missing?
---Bryan: The missing transfer rules (and all source system dependent objects that are missing) belong to PCDEVC200...I fixed the  missing object issue, by going to "transport Connection" and clicking on 'Source System Assignment' (or Shift+F7) and then checking the box for my source system, in my case the box for PCDEVC200 was not checked previously.
3. Was the "conversion of Logical System Name" entries updated correctly after the new source system was added in BID?
---Bryan:  The answer to this question i will find out tomorrow when I transport to Production (fingers crossed, the BID > BIQ transport went well with name conversion!)
Thanks!
Nick
