Capabilities of SAP SolMan KW

Hi Experts,
SAP SolMan KW is pretty new subject for me and want to have some guidance & support on the same.
We have SAP KW as separate sytem as of now and using this only to store process procedure documents & calling them from <Application Help> from all the transactions like VA01, ME21N, etc. for end users to look for documents. Standard functionality of maintaining Status Schema & Release process is being used for the same.
Now, question is:
1) Can we replace this currently functionality being used in SAP KW system with SAP SolMan KW so that we can stop using this different system and can miantain all process document in SolMan and can use for <Application Help>?
2) Any limitations of using SolMan KW for the point 1.
3) Do we get anything more in functionality in SAP SolMan KW than SAP KW System.
Please do not send me links of SAP Help as i have already gone through the same.
As per further discussion, i will be needing support in how to achieve the same, if possible.
Points will be awarded.

Suchit Malia

Hi
Sorry, i am not able to present this clearly. Let me clarify your questions but pardon me as i am very new to KW concept and dont have much idea.
Q- Do you want to use the SOLMAN KW as your document repositary? (Normal solar01 document management)
A -->
a. We are using SolMan for template & implementation projects so all project documentation is already in SolMan KW.
b. We have separate SAP KW also as different system.
c. This SAP KW System stores ONLY business process procedure documents which is being called via <Aplication Help> in ECC transactions. This was done almost 2-3 years back and there was no SolMan consultancy available at that time for project.
Q-do you want to connect both of them ?(for this check SAP note Note 710712 - Connecting external KW to Solution Manager)
A --> No
Q- else do you want install new KW in top of solman KW? (for this check SAP note Note 966400 - Solution Manager and Knowledge Warehouse)
A --> No. We want to stop using separate SAP KW System if SolMan KW has capability to provide same functionality as stated above.
Q- else do you want to moigrate the data from SAPKW to SOLMAN KW database (check the same sap note)
A--> If SolMan KW can provide same functionality of calling process documents via <Application Help> from ECC transactions, then 'YES', we need to move all docs from SAP KW to SolMan KW.
Q-other query regarding advantages on SAP Solman KW, all the normal functionalites like 'document history' or 'electronic signature' or available only in solution manager and efficient way of archiving and export to other repository(content server)
all posible.
A--> 1 statement is fine.
2nd statement regarding archiving and exporting - Please check my other thread of today which has subject of 'Performance issue in document Management.....'
Thanks.
Regards,
Suchit Malia

    unable to delete Role from User ID in SAP SOLMAN production system but able to from DEV with the same authorization, pls suggest

    Hi,
    For SU01 role removal, you do not need S_USER_AGR with 02, and as you mentioned both authorizations available in production, if so trace should not show you the S_USER_AGR with 02 with RC=04.
    I would recommend to do role comparison for the user performing the activity. and then check if you have the S_USER_AGR with 02 in user buffer SU56.
    But ideally it should not ask you S_USER_AGR for 02 through SU01, so please take help of abaper to debug it.
    Also put trace in non-prd to see if S_USER_AGR is getting checked with 02 for removal through SU01.

  • SAP SOLMAN 7.1 error in ATM for DBACOCKPIT

    Hi Experts,
    My client's SAP Solution Manager 7.1 has been displaying the error message - "Error in RDI back-end setup occured!", since last one week. I am unable to analyze this to resolution, as there is nothing I couldn't find closely relative in the standard database SAP Sybase 15.7. ASE server configuration guides or in the SCN itself for that matter, which would help me resolve this bugging error.
    I have also checked in system logs but have always found different types/varieties of database errors everyday. I am attaching the error screenshots for your kind reference and consideration. Kindly note that I have worked on most databases previously in an efficient manner except for Sybase ASE, which is relatively new to me.
    When I click on repair, I am getting the following error, which my SAP Basis PM/lead has told me its a generic error.
    Upon clicking on yes, I am getting the unavoidable error shown below -
    The error is - "Error in RDI back-end setup occured!", as i have stated above.
    I have checked the ATM logs and history and they are fine. I am getting error only in the ATM queue as shown below -
    I am also getting the same database errors in event viewer as to those in the system logs for SAP SOLMAN 7.1 server.
    I would appreciate it very much if one of the Sybase experts would help me out here. Speaking of technical configuration for any database in conceptual terms, I perceive this error to be a space issue as mentioned in the ATM queue. I believe I have provided sufficient details. The OS here is the Windows server 2008 R2 version.
    Kindly mention if you need more details for a speedy and possible error analysis and resolution
    This is an emergency task for me as I need to resolve it on ASAP basis. Rest assured, points for all right answers will be awarded generously.
    Thanks and regards,

    Hi Nizam,
    Please share what is the database patch level for Sybase ASE 15.7

  • SAP Solman Installation

    I need to install SAP Solman 7 + EHP1; AS ABAP +DB on one server and java on other server, based on Windows 2K3 Ent Server 64bit and Oracle 10.2. This is because of the limited hardware resources on a single server.
    Is it mandatory to have ABAP and JAVA on same box with Solman ? I know you can add dialog instances later.
    When I try to install using sapinst --> SAP Systems --> --> --> Oracle and Central System; it asks me for Java component. It does not proceed further unless I mention the java export location. Same happens if I select a distributed installation ?
    Can someone please help me understand this behavior ?
    Thanks,

    For Solution Manager it's not possible to separate ABAP + Java due to technical restrictions.

  • Migration SAP SolMan 7.1 MSSQL 2008 R2 Enterprise Edition to MSSQL Standard Edition

    Hello,
    I try to migrate a SAP SolMan 7.1 on Windows MSSQL 2008 R2 ENTERPRISE EDITION to
    MSSQL 2008 R2 STANDARD EDITION.
    In the source system (MSSQL 2008 R2 ENTERPRISE EDITION) there is "table compression" and
    "partitioning" active.
    the MSSQL STANDARD EDITION doesn`t support these two features.
    So a normal DB backup on the source system and restore in the destination system is not possible.
    But the tables compression I can deactivte by the SQL script
    SELECT DISTINCT ‘ALTER TABLE [' + SCHEMA_NAME(schema_id) + '].[' + NAME + '] REBUILD PARTITION = ALL WITH (DATA_COMPRESSION = NONE);’
    FROM sys.partitions p
    join sys.objects o
    on p.object_id = o.object_id
    WHERE o.TYPE = ‘u’
    and data_compression_desc != ‘NONE’
    UNION
    SELECT ‘ALTER INDEX ALL ON [' + SCHEMA_NAME(schema_id) + '].[' + NAME + '] REBUILD PARTITION = ALL WITH (DATA_COMPRESSION = NONE);’
    FROM sys.partitions p
    join sys.objects o
    on p.object_id = o.object_id
    WHERE o.TYPE = ‘u’
    and data_compression_desc != ‘NONE’
    is there a way to undo or deactivate the the SQL table partitioning without any data lost ?
    Or is there a other way to migrate a SAP SolMan 7.1 form MSSQL 2008 R2 ENTERPRISE EDITION to MSSQL 2008 R2 STANDARD EDITION ?

  • Multiple clients on one instance of SAP SolMan

    Hello,
    I have doubt about the conductibility of SAP Solution Manager to support more than one client, as an example, ones for Development and the other for production. I think that the limitation is due to the Java side which does not allow to perform more than one client.
    Up to know, I have browsed SAP Solution documents and have not found any indication about this kind of restriction, more than 1 client per instance of SAP SolMan.
    Look forward in hearing from your insight comments.

    Have you reported the correct program name?
    According my information, "RDSVASAEA_ROOT_____________061" has not been created (nor shipped to customers).
    You stated, that the recommended SAP Note did not help. I would suggest to request help from SAP Support via a customer message on SV-SMG-SDD.

  • SAP Solman MMC is not opening

    Dear all,
    i have tried to open SAP Solman MMC, i got the below error .
    MMC cannot open the file c: \Documnets and  setting\user\Windows\sapmmc.msc.
    this may be because the file does not exit, is not an MMC console , or created by a later version of MMC. This may also be because you do not have sufficent access rights to the file .

  • OSS functionality and synchronization of data with SAP SOLMAN 4.0

    Hi experts,
    I would like to enable the OSS functionality in our SAP SOLMAN 4.0.
    I need a document for the settings to activate the OSS functionality.
    I am looking forward to hearing from you,
    Thanks alot.
    Tolga AKINCI

    If your system has more than one IP/multiple network cards, take care, that not the wrong addresse is sent to OSS.
    We have had quite big trouble last month, when our configuration in OSS got overwritten by wrong IPs, the system was unaccessible and thus support could not access our systems and eventually payroll run one day later and ~ 600 people were angry.
    Our connection was working the last 10 years so nobody came to the idea, that SolMan is the root cause. Since there´s no option to choose, which IP is finally sent to OSS but only a "manual coding" (note 1050693 - Several IP addresses when you synchronize system data) we decided finally to delete all systems/solutions from SMSY.
    So be VERY careful what you synchronize.
    @Rüdiger: I appreciate your enthusiasm, but I got hit just too often with that SolMan things, spent hours and hours because SAPs "labour" environments are clean and tidy. I can just warn people out of my experiences to use too much "automatisms" before any harm is done (and yes, we got substantial harm, not only virtually and in the mind but also $$$).

  • Installation of SAP SolMan 4.0 SR2 on AIX 5.3/Oracle

    We have already installed SolMan 4.0 successfully in our dev sys--so we know this can be done. Now we are trying to start the sapinst to install our prod system and can't get the SAPInstGUI to recognize the sapinst running on the same server.
    We have:
    -installed the newest IBM JDK 1.4.2 SR8
    -set SAPINST_JRE_HOME=/usr/java14_64/
    -set TEMP, TMP and TMPDIR
    When we run ./sapinst as root, it stops, apparently waiting for the GUI:
    Starting GuiServer using:
    /usr/java14_64/bin/java -cp /mnt/temp/sapinst_exe.360628.1190411815/JAR/instgui.jar:/mnt/temp/sapinst_exe.360628.1190411815/JAR/inqmyxml.jar -Djava.security.egd=file:/dev/urandom SDTServer config=jar:sdtserver.xml guiport=21212 sapinsthost=localhost sapinstport=21200

    We have als attempted to start using ./sapinst -nogui and ./sapinst SAPINST_START_GUI=false, which gives the same message. We then try to start the SAPInstGUI as <SID>adm, the GUI will generate a screen with the following message:
    "Could not connect to host r09prd01 on port 21212. java.net.ConnectException: A remote host refused an attempted connect operation."
    What are we missing to get this install started?

    I am searching for the Media on OSS , but i couldn't find media for this.What should be the strategy here
    Abhinav

    Hi Abhinav,
    Instead of SP10 you should plan for SP12 which is more latest or n-1 as SP13 is released already.
    Also, you will get basic version if you install from scratch which is SP04 and then you need to upgrade to SP10 or SP12. There is no shortcut.
