Clarifications about ChaRM  for a 4-systems landsape

Hi All,
we have a 4 ECC systems landscape DEV>QAS>PrePRD-->PRD. When we set the status of change document from "In Development" to "To Be Tested" the TR are transported from DEV to QAS. After successfully testing in QAS the status of Change document is set to "Consolidated" and the TR are transported from QAS to PrePRD. When the phase of the project is switched to "GoLive" then all TRs that belong to the project are transported in PRD. Now we have some questions:
1)Is it possible to set a status for the change document that are in PrePRD so only those that have this status can be transported in PRD?
2)For a maintenance project UC and normal corrections in PrePRD are transported together (project import all) or separately?
3)Is it possible to do a single import (not an project import all) in PRD?
Best Regards
Bob

Hi Bob,
#1)
You want to transport only some transports out of all your available transports?
Only those, which reached pre-poduction system.
Afaik, this is not possible when you golive with the project. It's the idea of a project, to keep all transports 'together'.
You might try to do it manually directly in the system, but it's some effort and will reduce system stability.
#2)
UC are transported as transport of copies and re-transported with NC's when you go live with the project.
#3)
I don't know an automatic way - for one single transport, I would do it manually.
But again, it's risky. You should really know, what you are doing and what the effect of the transport will be!
Godd luck,
Jan

  • ChaRM for SAP BI systems?

    Hi!
    We would like to implement ChaRM functionality for our SAP system landscape.
    Among others we have 3 SAP BI systems.
    Does some one experience with set up of ChaRM for SAP BI systems?
    Do we have here a different approach as for other systems (e.g. SAP ERP 2005)?
    Thank you very much!
    regards
    Thom

    Hi Thom,
    we are using a ECC landscape, a BI landscape, a Solution Manager landscape, and a CRM landscape within CHaRM. All landscapes are separate transport landscapes, and there is a transport domain link from SolMan Production system (as this is the transport domain controller).
    To answer your question: The approach is all the same for any landscape (as long as they are just ABAP systems). The approach is different for Dual-Stack of Java systems, you would need CTS+.

  • ChaRM for a 5 system landscape

    Hi all,
    we got a requirement to implement charm for 5 system landscape. but the problem is
    currently the scenario followed for the rollout is
    1. AA(DEV-proj)--> BB(QUA - proj)
    Then the TR is forwarded from BB system to the maintenance landscape
    DEV>QUA> PROD
    they don't want to implement retrofit functionality.
    is there any way we can mapp this scenario to charm.
    kindly advice in this regard.
    Thanks,
    Subhashini.

    Hi Ragu,
    Thanks for the reply.
    currently a two systems are separated from the maintenance landscape.
    they are forwarding the TRs to the development system.
    is there any way we create 2 tracks.
    1. AA-BB-DEV-QUA-PROD
    2. DEV-QUA- PROD
    again i not having a clear idea on how to differentiate the tracks as both leads to the same production system.
    or is there any way develop a custom method for forwarding this TR to the DEV system.
    kindly sugggest on how to go about.
    Thanks ,
    Subhashini.

  • Clarification in charm for daily transports

    Dear Charm Experts,
    We have configured charm in our test system and have few calrifications. Please help.
    Objective: to use charm for transport management of regular corrections for support and maintenance of system (no implementation or upgrade)
    So now we have configured and testing the workflow. Part of it i am successful able to create change request from dswp, approve and set to in development and also able to create transport request from change request.
    Now i am unable to release the transport request, getting the following error.
    "Action 'Regular Correction: Release Transport Request' cannot be
    executed during phase 'Development without Release'"
    My understanding is i can not release the request as the maintenance cycle status is in development. So to release the tr of change request i need to also set the status of maintenance cycle.
    If this is the case then do i need to create a maintenance cycle for each change we need in our landscape? or how i can create and implement the chages using charm just like Remedy. Hope you understood my concern, please let me know if you need more information.
    Thank you

    Hi,
    I guess, if i correctly understtand your prb, you are stcuk in flow of NCR.
    if the MC is in status "Deve w/o release" your change doc "In developemnet", at this time you can only create the TR and do the develpment activity.
    at once you set the MC as "Develp wit release" and your cr in "In development", you can release ur TR task,if you trigger action test transport, Then ToC s created, and import into test system, you can go for all testing, if any correction needed, do that in again in Dev system,release te new task , triger action again test import,ToC created, test it in test system.
    Once development done, trigger the action Release Transport Order, nw change doc "Complete developement".
    later you can move MC phase "test", CR as "To be tested", in this case corrections reparied by using test messages for create tr and import it.
    So please set the phase of your MC as Develp wit release and proceed.
    Thanks,
    Jansi

  • Charm configuration for a 4 system landscape

    Hi Experts,
    We are planning to implement charm for a 4 system landscape: Development Server, Integration Server, Quality Server and Production Server.
    We could configure TMS related steps, activated Charm in Solution Manager, created a maintenance project in solar_project_admin.
    However, the standard delivered transaction types like Normal correction and Urgent Correction are not working in a 4 system landscape.  They are only working for 3 systems (DEV, QAS and PRD).
    Are there any documents or blogs that would specially explain all the steps required for 4 systems? Any kind of help would be highly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Ravali

    Development --> Integration --> Quality --> Production.
    First, I will import the transport of copies into integration
    Yes, and you test the changes here.
    Second, the whole transport is released and imported to Integration - in the Test phase of the maintenance cycle and NC status being consolidated.
    Third - Now, keeping the maintenance cycle in the TEST phase and NC phase in consolidated, will I be able to schedule the transport into quality server?
    Nope. You consolidate your normal correction, which releases your original transport and import them into Integration, and then immediately into Quality (you already proved it worked in Integration) BEFORE you set the phase to Test. Otherwise the original transports are NOT released. And if you set your phase to Test before importing the originals, you'll get a message that you cannot import transports into Quality during this phase.
    If you need to get transports into Quality for break fixes during the Test phase you need to use a Test Message and these are imported during Go-live as well.
    Fourth - if the above process works, I will then change the MC to Go Live and schedule the import to Production.
    With the corrected process mentioned above, yes, you will then change the phase to Go-live and it will import everything that was brought into Quality. 
    Hope this helps.

  • CHARM for SAP Bank Analyzer system

    Does anyone have experience with setting up CHARM for SAP BA system ?
    Does work ?
    Generally I would think it should as BA is technically just an ABAP-type system.
    But I have never seen it before connected to CHARM, so any information is much appreciated: PROs, CONs, issues etc.
    Thank you

    I have configured CHARM on BW 3OB & BI 7 landscapes, and i dont think whatever you heard is correct.
    If you follow pre-requisites you will able to configure it without any errors.

  • Does anybody use ChaRM with their BW system?

    We are looking to implement Charm for our BW system and I am looking for somebody that has experience with this. For example if you extract a new field from your ECC system and transport it via Charm, does the system recognize that this transport needs to finish generating the data in BW before it moves the next transport in line? Or do you have to manually import these transports into BW?

    Horst,
    We already have Charm for ECC, CRM, SCM, Portal and the setup is not really a problem. The issue I have around BW is really a different one. Today, without Charm, we have the issue that the transports are not going in in the sequence that they are released (the BW manager gives us the sequence he wants them to be moved) and that in between transports we have to wait until the generation of data in BW is done, before the next transport can move. This takes a lot of time and as this needs to be done in off hours it keeps a person busy on the weekend, which ideally I want to avoid going forward as we are not staffed for that.
    So my question is if we are doing something wrong in general around the transports we do for BW (so that we have to wait and change transport sequences and do stuff manually) and if Charm is only going to make it worse....
    Looking for tips and tricks on how we can get this to go automated... . How can we get this to improve?
    Can you give me a few details on how your transports are going through for BW and if you encounter any of the above problems or how you might have resolved them?
    Thanks for your reply and thoughts on this

  • Charm implementation: No maintenance cycle is open for the current system

    Gurus,
    I'm in implementation project to use charm.
    I've created SDCR using charm_create, and choose transaction type subject "Development (implementation)"
    After approving the change request, so that the status become "Approved", I re-open the request to set into "in development", but there's error:
    "No maintenance cycle is open for the current system"
    I've checked notes and search the forum but not relevant to my subject.
    Please help.
    Regards,

    Hi Cesar,
    I'm facing this issue now. I have followed Dolores blog
    - The IBase is wrong: The IBase/component must represent the production system in the project landscape. RP1 is my production
    - Lack of authorizations: Assign role "SAP_SOCM_ADMIN" or "SAP_CM_ADMINISTRATOR_COMP" (or equivalent) to the user who would like to approve the change request. I have updated all roles and given the users SAP_ALL
    - Project is locked in table /TMWFLOW/PROJMAP: If an error is detected during the processing, then the project might be locked in this table. The customer can unlock it by pressing the refresh button under tab "System Landscape" -> "Change Requests". If there are other error messages shown during the refresh process, the customer must fix those errors beforehand. Refreshed it many times without errors
    I'm on the latest level of Solman 7.1 SP8, I have implemented all the new notes as well.
    I have attached a screenshot
    To me it seems like a bug, but haven't found anything on marketplace. Any help is much appreciated.
    Cheers

  • ChaRM for Dual Stack ABAP & JAVA - No http port for system SPD

    Hi,
    I have configured the CHARM for Dual stack ( Java, ABAP). when I perform the action 'Logon to System' it gives me following option
    " The system is a dual stack system. You can log
    on to the ABAP stack or non-ABAP stack
    To which stack do you want to log on?
    ABAP or Non ABAP"
    If I click on Non ABAP, one more message comes
    "You can logon to system SPD or just display its
    transport requests
    What do you want to run?
    Requests  Or Logon"
    If I click on Logon I get the Information " No http port for system SPD "
    & If I click Continue It will take me to Ugent Correction & error appears as 'Action System Logon in system SPD 100 of type Source Systems has been cancelled'
    How to Solve this error.

    Its possible to login to portals(non-ABAP systems).
    Please check.

  • ChaRM Error - "No maintenance cycle is open for the current system"

    Hello All,
    I am setting up ChaRM in development system after EGI session with SAP support. I have copied standard transactions to custom ones and created Maintenance and Implementation project to run test of all scenarios.
    I now come across error of "No maintenance cycle is open for the current system" after I create a change request and in the change document, I cannot see it link with task list and the error message is displayed. I tried it with custom transaction as well as standard SAP transaction (SDCR) and get the same error.
    What links a document to a maintenance cycle? Where can I see the config of this setup? I am trying to see where it is broken. I am using the correct IBASE number (production client in logical component), I tried to create a new logical component, new projects with correct settings but it still gives this error message. Please advice.
    Thanks and regards,

    I'm running OS X 10.4.11 on my PowerMac, and cannot retrieve email.  Does this have to do with iCloud?  I also cannot upgrade my operating system as my computer won't accept it.  Any information about this for me? Thank you!

    Hi Steve,
    If this is dot mac or Mobile me you can still use IMAP eMail in the iCloud.
    Do not delete the old account yet. sign up for an iCloud account if you haven't.
    MAKE A NEW ACCOUNT - DO NOT TRY TO ALTER YOUR EXISTING ACCOUNT.
    I understand .mac mail will still come through. Do not delete the old account yet.
    You cannot use .mac or MobileMe as type of Account, you have to choose IMAP when setting up, otherwise Mail is hard coded to change imap.mail.me.com to mail.me.com & smtp.mail.me.com to smtp.me.com, no matter what you try to enter.
    iCloud Mail setup, do not choose .mac or MobileMe as type, but choose IMAP...
    On second step where it asks "Description", it has to be a unique name, but you can still use your email address.
    IMAP (Incoming Mail Server) information:
        •    Server name: imap.mail.me.com
        •    SSL Required: Yes
        •    Port: 993
        •    Username: [email protected] (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)
        •    Password: Your iCloud password
    SMTP (outgoing mail server) information:
        •    Server name: smtp.mail.me.com
        •    SSL Required: Yes
        •    Port: 587
        •    SMTP Authentication Required: Yes
        •    Username: [email protected] (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)
        •    Password: Your iCloud password
    Also, you must upgrade your password to meet the new criteria:  8 characters, including upper and lower case and numbers.  If you have an older password that does not meet these criteria, when you try to setup mail on your mac, using all of the IMAP criteria listed above, it will still give a server error message.  Go to   http://appleid.apple.com         then follow directions to change your password, then go back to setting up your mail using the IMAP instructions above.
    Thanks to dpepper...

  • No maintenance cycle is open for the current system

    Hello!
    I have problems to use CharM functionality due to following error:
    <b>No maintenance cycle is open for the current system</b>
    The error arises when I try to set a urgent correction in status "In Development" I get the following error, menwhile I have an valid maintenance cycle active.
    I use CharM functionality for the solution consisting of an single system with two clients:
    SRM:000 (as DEV-system) (system role: source system)
    SRM:100 (as PRD-system) (system role: target system)
    - No maintenance cycle is open for the current system (meanwhile I have a valid maintenance cycle created and activated).
    Futhermore I get the additional warning:
    IBase component is not a productive system in system lanscape
    Can some help me with this issue?
    Thank you very much!
    regards
    Thom

    Hello Kriti,
    thank you very much for your response.
    Unfortunately I also thought about it.
    Basically my CharM procedure looks as follows.
    I send the message from productive client (I have only one system with client 000 and 100)  to Service Desk in SOLMAN.
    There I can see the IBase of the productive client.
    Then I create a urgent correction by assigning IBase to this IBase of productive client. It is also possible to change the IBase in change mode, so I have tried all the possible values of IBase and get the same error.
    My problem also is that I have multiple values of IBase assigmenets, it means one system has multiple assigments to IBase components.
    I do not know how to delete/cut these settings....
    Thank you for your further help!
    regards
    Thom
