Cm roomextension in room template creation

Hi all ,
when we create a room template it will ask for external parameters and Extensions . what actually CM extensions and the extension points . i read the documents in help.sap ,but it was very confusing to me .
can anyone please explain me how to map the content and what are all the extensions and the parameters
Thanks in advance,
Rajeev.

Hi rajeev,
The external parameter is nothing but the parameters need to give at the time of creating room using that template. If youu2019re specifying that it will ask for that parameter value at creation of room.
The room extension is like trigger. It will call on room creation, deletion and updating times. If you like to create any additional folder at the time of room creation , this call the extension point

Error in Room Template Creation

hi,
In portal we developed our own room template.Due to some reasons we have deleted that room template also.After deletion the room template name is not appearing in the dropdown when I try to create a room.
But when we tried to create another room template with the same room template name which I have deleted earlier, it is giving an error 'No valid name for room template'. what is the reason.........
Is the deleted room template existing anywhere?
Thanks and regards.
shami.

Hello Shami,
Deleted room is not existing but its record is maintained in Room Template Version Folder.( I am referring NW2004s, EP7.0, SP11)
So it might not allow the deleted name to use.
Sorry I can't attach the screen shot to prove my point .
Thanks and regards,

Changes on room template in Coll - Content inconsistent !

Hi Collaboration experts,
I have a question on Collaboration Rooms again.
I have created a Java WebDynpro Wizard to create a new room, which works perfectly fine. I offer the possibilty to choose one of several room templates I have created for certain purposes ( BI context ). Then I use the ITemplate to get the related parameters I have defined when creating the template ( Portal -> Content-Admin -> Collaboration-Content ). The user can now enter values for those parameters. I have, for example, an iView in my template that displays an url and it works perfectly well that the user can choose any url to be displayed during my room creation wizard.
But when I change anything on the parameters, e.g. the description, in the template designer in Portal -> Content-Admin -> Collaboration-Content, the chnages are not consistent. When I run my wizard and get the parameters of the related template via ITemplate, I still get the former description, although it has been changed in the portal.
Can anyone tell if this is an error? Or am I missing something?
Thanks for your answers!!! ( Reward points are waiting for you )

Sabine

Hi Thierry,
for each room you create also a group is created. The group name contains cryptical characters but also ROOM. Search in "User Administration" for room and you will find the group.
Check if the user is in this group.
The user normally will be added to this group if you add a room member in the room administration part.
The user needs also rights for the KM Content parts of the room. I don't know now where exactly but this is pretty fine described in the How to's.

Stefan

How can I use KM document iView in a room TEMPLATE?

I want to use a KM document iView in a room template. The target document for this iView will contain some standard html content for every room built from this room template. This file's content and the folder structure for the room template will come from a room extension. The iView should be able to display the HTML in the target document, which will always have the same name (roomHome.html). How can I configure my room template so that each instance of rooms built from this template will be able to navigate to its own unique instance of roomHome.html?

It's not possible to tag text with multiple languages in Pages 5. Go back to Pages 4, which should still be in you iWork folder.
For the whole doc in Pages 5, use Edit > Spellling and Grammar > Show Spelling and Grammar.

VMM 2012 R2 Template creation fails with sysprep error via the gui, but works in powershell?

I'm in the process of trying to convert an existing gen1 VM (Win Server 2012 R2) to a VM template using VMM 2012 R2 with rollup 1. The creation keeps failing with the following error :-
"Error
(2901)The operation did not complete successfully because of a parameter or call sequence
that is not valid.Recommended ActionEnsure
that the parameters are valid, and then try the operation again."
I've checked that the local administrator account for the machine being converted to a template and it is blank as expected and in an attempt to troubleshoot I've output the template creation script via the VMM GUI and executed the commands in order which appears
to have resolved the problem, well the template finishes creation, i'm yet to deploy a machine via it?
# Create VM Template Wizard Script
# Script generated on Thursday, April 3, 2014 12:52:15 PM by Virtual Machine Manager
# For additional help on cmdlet usage, type get-help <cmdlet name>
$VM = Get-SCVirtualMachine -VMMServer localhost -Name "MyTemplate_Template" -ID "98299447-83e1-4d98-a558-a96ebafcf9b5"
| where {$_.VMHost.Name -eq "myhost.mydomain.com"}
$LibraryServer = Get-SCLibraryServer -VMMServer localhost | where {$_.Name -eq "my.library.com"}
$GuestOSProfile = Get-SCGuestOSProfile -VMMServer localhost | where {$_.Name -eq "Windows Server 2012
R2"}
$OperatingSystem = Get-SCOperatingSystem -VMMServer localhost -ID "50b66974-c64a-4a06-b05a-7e6610c579a2"

$template = New-SCVMTemplate -Name "My Template" -RunAsynchronously -VM $VM -LibraryServer $LibraryServer

-OrganizationName "My Organisation" -Workgroup "WORKGROUP" -AnswerFile $null -OperatingSystem $OperatingSystem
Now the only fields that weren't populated when I ran through the gui were FullName and Organization? Before I changed the script these two fields were just set to ""? Is that what has potentially caused the issue are they both required fields?

Your not the only one who can reproduce this. Did you ever find out what it was? I saw your post and tried your same work-around and it also worked for me via Powershell.

Error with new Room Template (containing KM Navigation iView)

Hello,
I created a new room template based on a newly created workset which just contains the KM Navigation iView. As I went through the template wizard step by step (Content Administration > Collaboration Content > Room Template Administration) I didn't add any External Parameters (Step 3) and didn't add any extensions (Step 4). In the Mapping (Step 5) I mapped all internal parameter to "room_id" since I didn't know it any better. Then I created a room based on this template. When I entered the room I got the following error message. Is it possible that the following error has to do with the fact that I mapped all internal parameters to "room_id" and that I did not add any external parameters or any extensions?
com.sap.portal.pcm.Title

Room Template Changes not reflecting

Hi,
I have a Collaboration room template called Community. In that I have the Quick Poll Maintenance iview. I was getting the following error while creating a quick poll. When I try to add an image to a response in the quick poll, it gave me portal error. This was happening only inside the Collaboration room and not outside. Then I changed the mapping of the property PathToImages for the iview in the template to private_docs_path and saved the template.
Now the error does not come in the new rooms that I create with this template. But the old rooms are still having the problem. Any idea why?
Alos, for my old room the template is being displayed as Community_&VER&22 and for new rooms is Community_&VER&28. Is there any way to synchronize the the template versions?
Regards
Ranjith

Hi,
which version of the portal are you using?
Starting with NW04 SPS 17 / NW04s SPS8, you can transfer changes from the template to existing rooms. Before these releases, this is not possible. Please have a look at http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/44/168eb1c3641a75e10000000a1553f6/frameset.htm

Virtual desktop template creation with UR1 - two issues

There are two new issues affecting Virtual Desktop template creation with WMS 2012 with UR1.
Issue #1: Some systems fail to create a new or customized virtual desktop template with UR1 applied. UR1 includes an updated MultiPoint Connector which is compatible with a UR1 host. The Connector gets included in the Virtual Desktop template
so that the virtual desktops can be managed by MultiPoint Dashboard. On some systems installation of the UR1 Connector will require a reboot that takes too long to complete and template creation will timeout.
If you try to create a template without doing the following update to the unattend-t.xml file, and if the Connector reboot takes too long, the template creation process will never complete, appearing stuck at 80% until the timeout. If you check the running
Virtual Machine Connection, you will see an error message that Windows could not complete the installation.
To correct this:
From MultiPoint Manager or Hyper-V Manager, shutdown the running template VM.
Delete the template .vhd stored in Public Documents\Hyper-V\Virtual hard disks
3. a) Make a backup copy of
C:\Program Files\Windows MultiPoint Server\Unattend-t.xml
e.g. rename it .bak
b) open
C:\Program Files\Windows MultiPoint Server\Unattend-t.xml in your favorite text editor.
b) find “connector” in the file
c) replace this string (starts with <Path> and ends with </Path>)
<Path>powershell -Command "try { $process = Start-Process -FilePath '%Windir%\Temp\Connector\WmsConnector.Exe' -ArgumentList '/Quiet' -PassThru -Wait; } catch { throw 'WmsConnector
Install Failed'}; exit $process.ExitCode"</Path>
with this string
<Path>powershell -Command "try {
$p = Start-Process -FilePath '%Windir%\Temp\Connector\WmsConnector.Exe' -ArgumentList '/Quiet
/NoRestart' -PassThru -Wait; } catch { throw 'WmsConnector Install Failed'}; exit $p.ExitCode"</Path>
then save the file again as Unattend-t.xml
d) Proceed with Create and Customize virtual desktop template, and Create virtual desktop station as described on our blog at
Virtual Desktop Templates – Part
1 & Part 2
We continue to investigate why this issue occurs on some machines and not others
Issue #2: UR1 was intended to fix an issue creating virtual desktop templates on true UEFI systems, i.e. systems that don’t fall back to legacy support for earlier BIOS services. UR1 did not solve the issue. For now we are recommending
doing template creation on systems that do fall back to legacy BIOS services. To check: from Device Manager under Disk Drives select your system hard drive. Double click and go to the Volumes tab and click Populate. The Partition Style entry should
be Master Boot Record (MBR). If it is GPT you have a UEFI system.
We continue to investigate fixing this for UEFI systems.

Any word on a UEFI fix? My instructions on the other thread seem to work for me.
Also, I imagine this won't be an issue on the next version of MultiPoint Server since the next Hyper-V in Server 2012 R2 now has those native UEFI VM's. Have you guys played around with that yet? Also, FWIW, I'm not sure why the pre-release docs
mention that UEFI is only supported on Windows 8 VM's. Why not x64 Windows 7 and Vista SP1 VM's? I thought those already support full UEFI boot. Is it because Hyper-V has mandatory restrictions to have Secure Boot turned on for UEFI VM's?

Modifying existing Coll. Room Template

Dear KM friends,
I have created a Collaboration Room Template.
But i need to changes in Pages layout, iView settings, even i need to add new pages and delete.
can anybody tell me, How to modify the existing Collaboration Room Template??
Please reply me
thanx in advance
Kantha

Hi,
As per the doc...
Each template contains technical attributes and settings for the rooms or room parts that are created based on the template. In the portal, the templates are stored as Collaboration content.
You maintain templates in room template administration or in room part template administration.
In the template, you define the room or room part structure by assigning a workset to the template (see Maintaining Worksets for Templates). The following special points apply to this assignment:
· You can use one workset as the basis for more than one template, which are differentiated by their external parameters, for example.
When you create a template, the system copies the workset assigned and assigns this copy exclusively to the template. Changes to a workset that is already assigned to a template are made only to this template.
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp2004/helpdata/en/44/f99140c2eab118e10000000a1550b0/frameset.htm
You can simply delete or add or modify the pages to the workset in the templete.

How to set a room part as default in a room template?

Hi,
Can you please tell me how to configure a room part as the default one for a room template. The requirement is that this room part must be the first one to be opened when a room of the specific template is opened inside collaborations. NW7.0 . Please provide you suggestions.
Thankyou in advance..

Hello Lorcan,
Thank you for the information. But even after trying to set it as extension the changes was not getting reflected. Another way which I tried to set the room part as default after adding the extensions is below:
Content Administration -> Portal Content -> com.sap.ip.Collaboration -> Template Worksets (where the customized templates are there)->In the selected template I tried setting the property "Default Entry for Folder" as yes for room part "Documents".
As of now room part "Task" is opened as default for the room but I want "Documents" to be opened by default. Please advice on the same.
Thank you in advance..

Mappings In Room Template Administration

I have created a new Collaboration room template based on duplicating the existing Meeting_Room_Extended template via Room template administration. I have added the additional page of Documents (via the PCD). When I run the VALIDATE function on my new meeting room template I get informational messages saying that I don't have mappings.
Here are a sample of the warnings:
No mappings provided for iView com.sap.netweaver.coll.documents_2_level on page com.sap.netweaver.coll.RoomDocuments
Define the mappings required for the iView in the template
No mappings provided for iView com.sap.netweaver.coll.RoomInformationExtended on page com.sap.netweaver.coll.RoomDocuments
Define the mappings required for the iView in the template
I know where I need to enter the mappings on the template administration, however, I don't understand the underlying purpose behind the mappings. Can someone please give me an explanation of what the purpose of the mappings is?
Thanks
Angie.
PS: I am running NW2004s (EP7) with SP9.

Hi Angie,
have a look at this presentation from SAP NetWeaver Product Management:
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/c0bf27c0-1c2e-2a10-80a2-bd78bf6c89c7
I believe that it explains pretty well the concept behind the Room Extension Mappings.
Let me know if you have further questions,
Robert

Collaboration Room Template problem with Roominformation iView

Hello all,
I'm trying to make a custom collab room template, but I'm having troubles with the Roominformation iView. It always gives me an error
Portal Runtime Error
An exception occurred while processing your request
Exception id: 11:28_30/10/07_0005_2777350
See the details for the exception ID in the log file.
What I've done is copied the Room information extended iView , paste it in a page, assigned that page to a the collabroom workset.
Is there perhaps some configuration I have forgotten ? If so, where do I have to do the configuration ?
Thank you in advance !
Abjuh

Okay, found the problem. It was indeed some configuration that I've forgot.
com.sap.netweaver.coll.RoomInformationExtended
iView property com_sap_netweaver_coll_information_roomid = room_id (=parameter)

Room Template

Hello Folks,
I have an issue with the room templates.Can I use a old template name to a new template.after the old room template was being deleted?.
When ever I'm trying to do this..I get an error.Please clarify.
Thanks and Regards
Neha Chaturvedi
PS: Helps will be rewarded

Hello Neha,
Room Templates deletion:
Whenever the room templates are deleted. They are stored internally but hidden. Thus, a user cannot use the same name for the template over and again.
So, if this answers your query do reward it with 10 ;o)
