Client strategy for SAP Discovery system

Hello,
We have installed SAP Discovery system and would prefer to create custom clients copied from the standard clients for use by the users. Please let me know if there are any restrictions or possible problems creating custom clients in SAP Discovery system.
Thank you,
Vijaya

Hi,
There are no restrictions for creating custom clients on the Discovery System box.
It is highly recommended to backup your current server before customizing the box so you can return to the original state if needed.

Client strategy for DEV system in an implementation proj

Hi,
Can some one advise a good client strategy for an impl project? here's and example and questions i have. if you have a better strategy, pls advise. We want to follow this on ECC 6 DEV system -
10 - Sandbox (play around before doing config - no transports)
20 - Golden client (do real config here, and do development here - transports will start from here)
30 - Test client (for SCC1 testing)
I am assuming I should do DEVELOPMENT in the same golden client - does that make sense? Else, which should i have a new client? in that case, how will transports move?
Thanks for all your help

Hello Jerryp,
Our customer has similar setup:
100 - Sandpit
200 - Dev and Cust
300 - Testing
400 - Sandpit 2
Whenever we need to do any unit tests in client 300, we copy over customizing by using SCC1 transaction (client copy via transport request).
For example whatever development (code or customizing) we do in 200 is copied over to 300 by SCC1. This ensures the client dependent customizing is in sync with client 300 without destroying data.
Also, periodically we refresh client 100 and 400 and with data and customizing from 300. No development client independent changes are possible in the sandpit and testing clients.

Siddhesh

Availability of the SAP Discovery System for Enterprise SOA

Hello Everybody,
will the SAP Discovery System for Enterprise SOA only be avaliable as a appliance as I've read on NetWeaver04s on Discovery System? Will there be a normal installation like a IDES System?
Perhaps a good idea for a quick start would be a peinstalled Linux Based VMWare Image :-).
Regards
Gregor

Hi Gregor,
among the reasons for shipping the Discovery System as an appliance are legal reasons. So as long as there are 3rd party components involved (from SAP perspective) you'd need to be an official distributor for them. Obviously this restriction applies to VMWare Images as well.
An IDES-like installation is facing the challenge of integrating multiple components (that normally have to be installed separately) and their configuration data during the set-up already. This can be done as the example of Rapid Installer shows. But it is certainly more work to accomplish it.
As always: Making a complex system easy to use/set-up requires extended efforts behind the scenes. So it is always necessary to find the trade-off between "time to market" and "plug-and-play". So currently the availability as appliance is a compromise of both.

SAP Discovery system support

Dear all,
Do you know if customers who run a SAP Discovery system are entitled to any kind of dedicated support from SAP? For instance, via their regular support engagements such as Standard Support, Enterprise Support, Safeguarding or MaxAttention?
Or do they have to contact another instance within SAP if they require help with the setup or operations of the SAP Discovery system?
Thanks a lot in advance!
Best regards
Gregor

Hi Gregor,
The Discovery system is supported via CSN. For any Discovery System related issues, please open a CSN ticket on component CA-SOA-DS.
thanks,

SAP Discovery System Procurement

Does anyone have the contact information for the current & active HP representative responsible for the SAP Discovery systems?
The listed HP rep on the spec sheet is no longer responsible. The person he forwarded us to does not return calls. The front line HP sales representatives cannot find the current product listed. They assume since it was offered on a G5, which is now in end of life, the product is no long sold. Any leads would be helpful.
Kind Regards.

Hi,
The primary contacts for the Discovery system from HP is available on the Discovery system home page : http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/discoverysystem.

SAP Discovery System (V3)

Hi Advisers,
I'm now exploring the SAP Discovery System, V3 and am looking under the Banking scenario. May I know where can I get more documentation/ demonstration about banking anywhere in the site? I'm having difficulty looking for it in the SAP Marketplace and community network.
Another possible area that I would like to explore is more on the services related industry instead of product based industry. May i know where can i look under for more information.
Your help is greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

Hi Dirk,
Unfortunately not, in the DSv3 the PI 7.0 is using the same NW 7.0 stack that is used by the ERP 6.0. You can't upgrade PI 7.0 to PI 7.1 without effecting the ERP. PI 7.1 runs on NW 7.1 while ERP 6.0 runs only on NW 7.0.

Message "Creation of DataSources for SAP source system is not permitted"

Hi,
I am in DW Workbench: Modeling and I need to copy a DataSource.
It's impossible, beacause I have this Message "Creation of DataSources for SAP source system is not permitted"!
What can I do?
Thks

Hii.
You can not copy the standard datasource to any other source system it will not allow you to do that.
But if you want to copy you can copy it to PC FILE source system.
It will allow you to copy there.
Right click in Datasource->Copy-> Give Target datasource name -
> intarget Source system tab -
>Give Source system for File.
Thanks

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+.
Best Regards,
Holger

Roles and Authorization strategy for SAP BIBO

Hello All,
We are doing an implementation where Source is a Oracle, SAP BI warehouse and BO XI3.1 as reporting solution.
Our customer has asked for the authorization strategy that will be implemented in SAP BI. Currently the users belong to different companies or plants or countries
Current structure is like,
User 1 belongs to Plant1 of Country1
User 2 belongs to Plant2 of Country2
user 3 belongs to Plant3 of Country1 etc..
We have more than 500 users who will use the reports. The user belonging to a particular plant should only see the plant data/Country data he belongs to.
As I understand, we need to create the roles in BW and these roles to be imported into BO to use for the row and column level security.
The options we considered are,
1. Use Bex queries in BW to with ABAP code in CMOD to identify the user belongs to Plant 1, 2 or 3 and provide necessary authorizations.
2. Create user groups based on the country or company they belong to and create as many roles as required. This will however impact the maintenance of so many roles in the BI system.
We are also forced to avoid Bex queries in BW and hence, trying to connect Multiproviders directly in BO universe.
How should we go forward in designing the authorization concept? Any better ideas?
Thanks and Regards,
Srinivas

There are two ways which we can implement this kind of authorization based on my knowledge.
1. Data Security purely at BW
If the data is secured based on roles and users, there is no need of additional authorization from BO side except at report and folder level if you go for SAP Authentication.
Once you use SAP authenication and enable single sign on option in universe connection, the SAP users can access data based on their profile set at BW.
2. Data Security from BO
Let's assume that, if nothing is set at BW and every thing to be take care from BO.
Then you could create one multiple provider for each plant / country. Create one connection for each multiprovider
Create restrictions (Tools--> Manage Access Restrictions) for each plant/country. There you can change connection names.
So you would need to create many restrictions for different permutations and combinations.
I never tries this option with Multiprovider. But It worked well with NON-SAP data.
Hope this helps!
Regards
Gowtham

SAP Discovery system access to BI and EP

Dear support,
We have setup our Discovery System and were trying to connect it to our DEV 4.7 system for the purpose of prototyping the use of BI and the Enterprise Portal. Were running into issues due to our lack of knowledge and SAPs lack of good documentation in these areas. Were wondering if theres any support help you can provide to establish the connections between these systems and get some of the packaged functionality activated? Please let me know.
Is there any document provided to establish connection between Discovery system and BI system or any netweaver system
Best Regards,
AjitR

AJit, lots of points of learning here.
firstly, have you run through the basic excercises associated with the discovery system, including defining your own scenarios that you wish to test just using the components on the server?
I am sure you have already looked here but this is the jump off page to the discovery server assets.
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/esadiscovery
As for connectivity from the DS to the 4.7 ERP, you should either be configuring your XI instance to manage the interaction, or web service enabling the BAPI you wish to interact with and calling it from the visual composer tooling on the server.
Also, you can raise a support ticket following the usual process if you have a specific issue or cnnectivity requirements on you 4.7 instance.
Finally, are you sure you want to use your backend erp and not the erp2005 deployed on the box?
