ChaRM SPAU Adjustements transport on managed system upgrade

Hi,
We are suing ChaRM 7.1 to manage our transports in our ERP 6.0 landscape. That landscape is now being upgraded to EhP7 and we've just completed the upgrade in DEV.
Here's my question; How are we supposed to handle the SPAU Adjustment if we want SUM to automatically move that transport to subsequent systems QA-PROD.
Are we supposed to handle the transport using ChaRM or let the SUM tool process the transport automatically going forward?
Thanks
Stephane

Hi Syed,
If the RFC connection from Solution Manager to ERP system connects with the current user, then the user who is performing this step in solution manager is missing the authorization in ERP system.
If the RFC connection is with an RFC user, then check the permissions of the RFC user in ERP system.
You can check which user is accessing the RFC connection in SM59.
S_RFC and S_RFCACL are the auth objects which are missing in ERP system. Provide the access and then check.

SPAU SPDD Transport Strategy for following Upgrades

Hello All,
We are doing CUUC from 4.7 NUC to ECC 6 Ehp4 UC
After completing our Upgrade from 4.7 NUC to ECC 6 NUC in the original host, I stopped the Upgrade tool at the point when it asks for SPAU adjustements in Post Processing Step, did the Unicode Conversion in which we built the Target ECC 6 UC System in a separate host (host: ecctemp).
So,
1. The Upgrade Directory and ECC 6 NUC System resides on the first host.2. The Second host(ecctemp) contains only the ECC 6 UC System.
3. We started our SPAU activities in the ECC 6 UC System after CUUC process completed.
4. Now, with SPDD & SPAU activities getting completed. I want the 2 Transports to be used for rest of the Upgrades.
How do I go about this?
1. I cannot run 'SELECT FOR TRANSPORT' or run the commands as per 68678 in the ECC 6 NUC System as thats where I didnot do SPAU.
2. I cannot even run the commands as per 68678 in the host ecctemp, becuase there is no upgrade directory here.

Hi,
You can add SPDD transport on your non-unicode system in umodauto.lst file and take this file to your quality system (also data file and cofile). So, when you will start upgrade on your quality system then upgrade tool will first read this umodauto.lst file and it will prompt you on the screen to has this transport as SPDD transport. And upgrade tool will then import this SPDD request.
For SAPU, you can simply move data file and cofile from your final system to quality system. And once your quality system will be ready after upgrade and UC conversion then you can simple import this transport from STMS. This will solve your issue.
Thanks

Best Practice: Migrating transports to Prod (system down etc.)

Hi all
This is more of a process and governance question as opposed to a ChaRM question.
We use ChaRM to migrate transports to Production systems. For example, we have a Minor BAU Release (every 2 weeks), a Minor Initiative Release (every 4 weeks) and a Major Release (every 3 months).
We realise that some of the major releases may require SAP to be taken offline. But what is SAP Best practice for ANY release into Production? i.e. for our Minor BAU Release we never shut down any Production systems, never stop batch jobs, never lock users etc.
What does SAP recommend when migrating transports to Prod?
Thanks
Shaun

Have you checked out the "Two Value Releases Per Year" whitepaper for SAP recommendations? Section 6 is applicable.
Lifetime Support by SAP &raquo; Two Value Releases per Year
The "real-world" answer is going to depend on how risk-adverse versus downtime adverse your company is. I think most companies would choose to keep the systems running except when SAP forces an outage or there is a real risk of data corruption (some data conversions and data loads, for example).
Specific to your minor BAU releases, it may be wise to make a process whereby anything that requires a production shutdown, stopped batch jobs, locked users, etc. needs to be in a different release type. But if you don't have the kind of control, your process will need to allow for these things to happen with those releases.
Also, with regards to stopping batch jobs in the real world, you always need to balance the desire to take full advantage of the available systems versus the pain of managing the variations. If your batch schedule is full, how are you going to make sure the critical jobs complete on time when you do need to take the system down? If it isn't full, why do you need that time? Can you make sure only non-critical batch jobs run during those times? Do you have a good method of implementing an alternate batch schedule when need be?

In a two system landscape is it necessary to make development the domain controller always?
No such compulsion as such exist(correct me if wrong),however why you want to make production your domain controller?
This is not recommended.

ChaRM: testing portal managed systems

Currently, our managed system landscape for testing ChaRM (non-production) consists of 3 clients in an ECC sandbox to represent dev-test-prod, which takes care of testing ABAP systems as managed systems. I would like to be able to test portal systems as managed systems for our non-production SolMan system. Is there a better (read: cheaper) way to do so than needing to create 3 separate portal sandbox systems to transport between?
Thanks,
Michele

Change Request Management without Transport Managment System

Hello,
we would like to use the Change Request Management but without using the Transport Managment System (TMS). Means, we do not want that transport request are created automatically, we do not want that it is possible to log on to the satellite systems via the Solution Manager and we do not want to integrate the transport track into the Solution Manager.
What effort do we have to estimate for such a change? Does anybody already use a process like this? We would be grateful for any idea or solution.
Many thanks in advance.
Jenny

Hi Jenny,
you can do this with the following activities in your custom Business Transaction (BT):
- remove un-useful actions from your action list (TA: CRMC_ACTION_CONF)
- remove the action from the actions depending on user status (TA: starting from SPRO)
- unlock the switches from your SMI Project CTS Switches (TA: SOLAR_PROJECT_ADMIN)
The effort, for copying a standard BT and remove the actions and testing it, is about 5 days, if you already know how to customize a ChaRM BT... last but not least if one of the standard flows is what you really need.
Please let me know if you need more details, otherwise please reward the forum points

Transport Management System Configuration

Hi,
I have a question here, on Transport Management System.
We have new 64 bit boxes. I first migrated our dev SCM 4.0 box from 32 bit to 64 bit, it asked for being a Domain Controller. Configured it as a Domain Controller, and continued with the upgrade and completed the upgrade.
Now, I am going to the second box (QAS). I have performed the migration from 32 bit to 64 bit. Now, when I login to this box, in my understanding, TMS should offer to make this system part of the already existing domain right? It doesn't happen that way. It is forming itself again as a domain controller. After some changes and update configurations on both the boxes, the QAS box now says, "Waiting to be added into the domain by the domain controller" something similar to this. But, when I go and login to the domain controller (DEV), it doesn't show anything there.
In the QAS system when I go to the System Overview, I see both the systems but, they both show under the two different transport groups. I am totally confused here. Am I doing something wrong here? The only problem I see here is, the domain controller (DEV) is on SCM 5.0 as it is already upgraded from SCM 4.0 but the QAS is still in SCM 4.0 and waiting to be upgraded. Do you think this could be a potential problem? If so, what is the solution to continue with the upgrade because, I am sure the upgrade won't work without the Transport Management System configured properly.
Please help.
Thank you.

Hi Gus,
Thank you for the prompt response. Thank you.
There are couple of things to be considered before following your suggestion.
1. Our QAS box is in Kernel 6.40 (32 bit) and my DEV (upgraded) is in Kernel 7.00 (64 bit). In this kind of heterogeneous environment, I am sure the R3trans versions should be different. Is it possible to configure the transport management using the shared transport directory (Transport Group)?
2. Now, when I login to the QAS box, as I said in my previous message, I see two entries. One it should the APD (Domain Controller) with a different transport group. And I see the APQ in a different transport group. The problem here is, I cannot edit or delete any of the entries in the APQ - STMS because, it keeps saying all changes could be made only in the domain controller. A point to be noted here is, even though it shows two different transport group, it points to the same transport domain 'DOMAIN_APD'. Another thing to be noted here is when I look at the domain controller (APD), I don't see an entry for APQ or any awaiting approval requests.
Kindly suggest what needs to be done here.
Thank you.

Problems with Transport Management System

Hi All,
i seem to be having some issues with my Transport Management System, we have a two system landscape DEV & PRD, the operating system is windows 2003 server. i am trying to access the usr/sap/trans on the transport host (DEV) from the PRD system, i have put patches on the DEV server, but i can't access these patches from the PRD server. I have also tried to release a test transport, but the queues are not being updated. the systems are in the same Domain and the same transport group. on the PRD server i have specified the following value for the DIR_TRANS =
DEVSERVER\sapmnt\trans. i have checked the files and they are shared, what could be the cause of this?

Can you please check the access of global TRANS directory from your PRD server. Login to your PRD server, goto transaction STMS --> Overview --> Systems. Select your developement system and goto SAP System --> Check --> Transport Directory. If it can access the global directory the tick marks will come otherwise there is some problem with the directory access.

Abhishek Jain

Do we need to setup traditional ABAP Transport Management System on XI?

I was confused that do we need to setup ABAP transport Management System on XI, since the IR and ID object will use CMS or File to transport between DEV->QAS->PRD. If we still need, could you pls let me know why we need it?
one more question is: if we maintained some parameter in XI dev, say, we maintained Integration Server patameter to let system can moniter Syn message, if we want this paramter used in XI QAS, is that the only way to maintain it mannully in QAS, or we have other way to make it? thank you for your help

Zhang,
You are absolutely correct. You transport all your ID and IR objects using CMS or File transports.
But lets suppose you have developed some zprograms or abap mapping in XI. This basically reside on the ABAP stack. So for this objects to transport we will follow the procedure what we do normally to transporting the R3 objects. So what ever you develop on the ABAP stack we need to transport to QA and to Prod using ABAP transport system.

Business Package for Transport Management System & Travel Mangement System

Hi,
Is there any <b>Business package</b> available for <b>"Transport Management System" and "Travel Mangement System"</b>?
Please provide some link, if it is available.
Thanks in advance.
Manish

Hi Manish,
travel management is part of the ESS business package. As far as transport management, if you are talking about TMS capabilities for moving object in the landscape, go to https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/developerareas/contentportfolio and search for "transport" You will find a thirdparty package for this.
Good luck.
