CMS and CTS+

Hi all,
I want to know the difference between CTS+ and CMS. Is there any additional advantage provided by CTS+ over CMS? Also what is the difference in the procedure to transport IR and ID objects in CMS and CTS+.
Any links to documents related to transporting IR , ID objects via CMS and CTS+ will be very helpful.

Santosh

Hi,
What is CTS+ and why is is introduced:
The Change and Transport System (CTS) is a tool that helps you to organize development projects in the ABAP Workbench and in Customizing, and then transport the changes between the SAP Systems in your system landscape.
The XI use case for CTS+ introduces a new transport handling mechanism that offers tighter integration for the transport of ABAP, Java, and Integration Builder objects (Integration Repository and Integration Directory) using the Change and Transport System (BC-CTS) functionality.
As your XI system requires both the ABAP and the Java stack of the SAP NetWeaver Application Server, the following transport tools are available after installation:
u2022
The ABAP transport environment (BC-CTS)
u2022
The file export and import mechanisms or CMS integration to transport Repository or Directory objects in your transport landscape
In addition, you might also have to transport Java development objects by using the SAP NetWeaver Development Infrastructure itself.
The enhancements to CTS in combination with the SAP Solution Manager Change Request Management (ChaRM) address the following issues:
u2022
Synchronized transports for mixed systems (ABAP & Java)
u2022
A unified application for mixed system landscapes
u2022
Tracking of non-ABAP transports including Change Request Management
For your XI landscapes there will be one central transport environment with CTS+ where you can manage all XI-relevant transport objects from a single entry point.
This how-to guide describes the configuration settings you must make in the CTS+ system and XI systems. The functionality must be set up according to the release version of the integrated XI system. The two configurations will be described separately:
u2022
Configuration setup for releases prior to SAP NetWeaver 7.0 SPS12 (also for SAP NetWeaver 2004 SPS14 and higher).
u2022
Configuration setup for release SAP NetWeaver 7.0 SPS12 and higher.
Refer the link for CTS+ step by step method of transport:
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/80bbbd55-5004-2a10-f181-8bb096923cb6

CMS is generally used to transport Java development objects. The XI Integration Server uses CMS to transport Integration Server content. When the Integration Server uses CMS to transport XI Content, no Component Build Service (CBS) or Design Time Repository (DTR) is used and can therefore be switched off. If you want to transport Integration Server content and Java developments (Java proxies or adapter modules), the CBS and DTR must be running.
If you transport Java developments, you should keep in mind that deployment of Java code can destabilize the runtime environment. Therefore, it is beneficial to install CMS on a separate server, as described in SAP Note 737368 for NWDI.
In this How-to Guide, CMS is installed together with an Integration Server system in the development environment. The advantage of this approach is that you have fewer steps in user management and CMS cannot influence the runtime of a productive environment.
With the enhancements of the SAP NetWeaver Change and Transport System (CTS for short, or CTS+ respectively, if specifically the enhanced capabilities are meant), available with SPS12 of SAP NetWeaver 7.0, the CTS has been enhanced to handle any type of object that can be transported in an SAP system landscape. Therefore, an administrator of your ABAP system can now also manage the transports for the non-ABAP parts of your system landscape.
You can now use CTS to transport (almost) arbitrary objects in an SAP system landscape with transport orders of the Transport Organizer:
u2022
Enterprise Portal archives (EPAs)
u2022
Exchange Infrastructure objects (TPZs)
u2022
Software component archives (SCAs)
u2022
Software delivery archives (SDAs)
u2022
Enterprise Application Archives (EARs)
u2022
ABAP objects
Development objects will be deployed according to their application type. Objects in a single transport order can be a mixture of all types u2013 however that only makes sense, if both are intended for the same system because transport paths are defined in the transport domain controller system.
CTS+ and usage type PI (SAP NetWeaver Exchange Infrastructure, XI)
o
If you are not using the Change Management Service CMS of the NWDI, you should seriously consider using CTS+ for your XI transports (CTS+ & SAP NetWeaver usage type PI).
o
If you are already using the CMS, you should postpone any planned migration to use CTS+ up to availability of SAP NetWeaver 7.0 SPS 13 , where integration will be enhanced futher.
o
In any case you should evaluate the enhanced CTS options of SAP NetWeaver 7.0 comming with SPS 12 and extensions planned with SPS 13/14 for XI transports u2013 in the mid and long term CTS+ is the best practice recommended by SAP for XI tranports.

Hi,
CTS
The Change and Transport System (CTS) is a tool that helps you to organize development projects in the ABAP Workbench and in customizing, and then transport the changes between the SAP Systems and clients in your system landscape.
This documentation provides you with an overview of how to manage changes with the CTS and essential information on setting up your system and client landscape and deciding on a transport strategy. Read and follow this documentation when planning your development project.
For practical information on working with the Change and Transport System, see Change and Transport Organizer and Transport Management System.
What ever is developed in sap is assiged to a transport request, it is created by transaction SE09 and then it is released when the data needs to be transported in various other systems.
The Change and Transport System (CTS, SAP NetWeaver usage type AS ABAP) is enhanced with SAP NetWeaver 7.0 SPS 12 to be capable of transporting Non-ABAP object types, such as from the SAP NetWeaver usage types PI (Exchange Infrastructure), EP (Portal), etc. The enhanced CTS I will refer to as CTS+. Using its new capabilities further simplifies system administration of an SAP system landscape.

ChaRM and CTS+ for EP 7.0 in SolMan

Hi,
I've been trying to get CHaRM working for EP 7.0 in our SolMan systems for a while, but have not been able to get it working. I've read through and followed all the documentation on the resources page here, the Solution Manager documentation on help.sap.com and service.sap.com and all the notes I can find. We are running SolMan 7.0 SPS 17, and the Portal is on NW7.0 SPS 15.
I have configured SMSY, populated from SLD and assigned to a system (I've tried NETWEAVER 7.0 - Enterprise Portal main instance, and ERP 6.0 - SAP XSS main instance) and assigned the dev and prod systems to a locical component.
I have configured STMS, a single client independant consolidation route from dev to prod. The dev system is defined as a Non-ABAP "source system" in TMS, and I've set the communication system to be the solman system/client.
The CTS+ config all seems to work, I can create/release transports and add objects to transports from the EP dev system.
When I try to implement ChaRM, I create a new maintenance project. I add the portal landscape component to it, and activate change management. This works. When I try to create the task list, it fails trying to create the project IMG for the system. It gives me the error -
IMG project creation error -> see long text
Message no. /TMWFLOW/TASKLIST164
Diagnosis
You want to create a new maintenance cycle. An error has occurred.
When you create a maintenance cycle for a maintenance project in the Solution Manager (SMI project), a project is created in the Central Transport System (CTS project), per logical development system. This CTS project is required as an attribute for the transport requests.
A CTS project is always assigned to an implementation project (IMG project) in the physical system. There must be an IMG project in all physical systems in an SMI project, in which a system change (development/maintenance) can be made.
If there is no IMG project in a system, one is created automatically. The generated IMG project has the same name TEST as the SMI project, but there cannot be an SMI project and an IMG project with the same name in one system, for system-internal reasons.
In SMI project TEST there is a development system in the same physical system SMU as the Solution Manager.
System Response
If one of the development systems is in the same physical system as the Solution Manager, the IMG project cannot be created automatically.
Procedure
Create an IMG project manually in system SMU. In the path: SAP Menu -> Tools -> Solution Manager -> Project Administration.
Choose the SMI project TEST, go to the 'System Landscape' tab, and then the 'IMG Projects' tab.
Select an entry for the system SMU and try to create the IMG project. The system tells you that a system of the same name already exists, and asks you whether you want to choose another project name. Answer 'Yes', and change the project name.
You should then be able to create the task plan.
SMU (solution Manager) is not in the system landscape of this project, I expect that it is trying to create the IMG in this system since this is the communication system for portal dev. However, since it's not in the landscape, it isn't in the IMG tab to be able to create manually as described.
If I try to create the IMG project for the Portal Dev system directly in the project, I get the error -
Error getting RFC destination for logical system EPU
Message no. SMSY_PPMS_API044
Diagnosis
No RFC destination was found for the logical system 'EPU' .
System Response
The RFC connection to the system 'EPU' cannot be created.
Procedure
Create the required RFC connection in the Solution Manger System Landscape Maintenance.
Any advise would be appreciated.
Thanks,
James Blair

Hi James (and others),
I trust you have resolved your issues with ChaRM and CTS+.
If you are running a partuicularly extensive landscape you may want to consider a third party alternative to ChaRM.
Particularly one that integrates with CTS+ (to include non ABAP such as Portal, NWDI Java and so on).
There are several available, the one I am most falimiar with (Note: I do work with Revelation Software Concepts) is Rev-Trac and you can read user reviews at http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/ecohub/solutions/revtrac
If you run an EcoHub search on Change and Request Management or similar the other alternatives should be returned.

Diffrence between File Transport and CTS+ Transport in PI

Hi Guys,
Can you please explain me the diffrence between File Transport and CTS+ Transport in PI.
What are the advantages of CTS+ Transportation over FILE Transportation...
Thanks,
Siva...

The file transfer will simply export the objects to a TPZ file, allowing you to import on the target system. This requires manual copying and paste of the object and have no further control.
CTS+ on the other side, allows the environment to maintain transport requests with control over objects audit. For example, an object must be created on DEV, then after being developed it must go to QA system and will only be sent to PROD when this object was approved by the respective team on QA. For more information on CTS+, please check the help page below.
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nwpi71/helpdata/en/9a/775de286874bc78dcb1470bc80f0f9/frameset.htm
Also the documentation below will provide a more complete overview and configuration steps for the CTS+ usage

Changing CMS and Audit Repository databases from Oracle to SQl server 2008

Hi guys,
We have a Business Objects Dev environment which was installed with Oracle 10g database for CMS and Audit Repository.
Our database team now decided to change the CMS and Audit databases of Dev BOE from Oracle to SQL server 2008.
What is the ideal way to achieve this? I'm concerned because the old DB is Oracle and the new one would be SQL server.
Earlier, I have changed CMS database from one to another by stopping SIA , taking the backup of old DB into new and changing it in the Update Databse option. But in that case both old and new CMS databses were on SQL server 2005.
Thanks,
Ganga

Denise,
Thanks for the solution.
We have done Windows AD and SAP integration on the Dev BOE. Will there be any issue with those after the DB change. I am guessing there won't be, but just want to confirm. Please reply.
Also, we need to stop the old SIA and start using the new SIA after the step two is done right?

Data load management and CTS

hi sdn,
can any one explain data load management and CTS
regards
andrea

Hi Dipika,
When ever the delta fails, we have to do the repeat delta to bring earlier delta records along with current delta.
If your data load fails in ods it won't have any impact on your cube, manually turn the status of the request to red and delete the failed request from the target trigger repeat delta.
suppose if the datamart load fails in between this ods to cube, then analyze the reason for the failure, if the dso is updating a single cube then you can follow the same step, if this is updating multiple targets Reset the datamart status in the ods for that request after deleting the bad request from the target and trigger again, if it fails only in a single target then you can load the same delta by creating seperate info packge and check the target to be loaded for that instance.
Thanks,
Sathish.

CMS and NWCE 7.2 - large source archive import failed.

Good day, I ma trying to import a large source to the CMS and it failes with an error:Communication error [cause: number of bytes written to stream less than specified limit.]:Communication error [cause: number of bytes written to stream less than specified limit.]
com.tssap.dtr.client.lib.deltavlib.CommunicationException: Communication error [cause: number of bytes written to stream less than specified limit.]
I found the solution to the NW 7.0 where I have to change the MaxRequestContentLength value. But there is no Visual Admnistrator in CE7.2 so I can find the way to do it.
Could someone give a clue how to get rid of an error?

DB2 UDB9.1 support as CE10 CMS and Audit database

Does any body know if DB2 UDB 9.1 is supported as CMS and Audit database for Crystal Enterprise (CE) version 10?
I know CE 10 is not supported by BO any more, we are in the process of migrating to BOXI but mean while we have a need to upgrade DB2 UDB from 8.1 to 9.1 version.
Also did any one encounter any issues using CE10 against DB2 UDB 9.1.
Please advise.
Thanks

Hello Romain,
Thank you very much for your clarifications.
I guess there was a second question hidden behind my first question.
Here is the whole story, we had a workshop yesterday with some Consultants specialized on BI.4 technologies. We were discussing the architecture, and more particularly which would be the most suitable Web Application Server :
* It seems that most SAP Customers choose the bundled WAS : Tomcat 7
* But as SAP Basis Administrators,we had pretty much no previous exposure to Tomcat/Apache Technologies
* The Consultants told us that an increasing number of SAP Customers are choosing SAP NW AS for deployment of BOE.war and other BI webapps
* But so are now considering installing dedicated Netweaver AS on Windows, that will be acting as BI 4.1 Application Servers. We do not plan to deploy BI 4.1 applications on any of our existing NW AS ,as they have been installed on HP-UX ( not supported by BI.4 )
The only problem with that is that you can not install a Netweaver AS, without its corresponding Database, so I was wondering if that New Oracle Database installed only when deploying"NW AS/BI 4 Web application Tier", could be used as the CMS/Audit Database.
Your latest answer seems to suggest that it is definitely not a good idea.
The thing is , that we do not want to end up with two databases per Landscape tier (DEV,QAS,PRD)
I hope it is a bit more clear.
Thank you

ACK and CTS Timeout adjustment

Can the ACK and CTS Timeout be adjusted beyond the 802.11 standard for a long range (13 mile) link on a 1522 AP?

I was afraid of that! Thanks for the input.
How about in Mesh mode, there appears to be a setting in the WLC for setting the 1522 link distance in feet?
If I make a wireless Mesh connection with a 1510 13 miles away can I get more thruput?

CMS and Audit DB: DBA Tips

Anyone seen any good blogs, whitepapers, or other info on tuning the CMS and Audit DB? I am looking for info on things a DBA should consider in keeping the DBs in tip top and good performing shape. For example, is there ever a reason to partition tables? When does it make sense to run statistics, if ever? What settings would optimize thruput? High availability considerations? Basically, the types of things a DBA should consider in a large enterprise environment for a BOBJ system that has been running for years or will be running for years? As a consultant, we usually set our customers up and then we rarely revisit this sort of topic. It says something for the stability and design that it rarely needs consideration. But it would be nice to have some valid and vetted sources of information to educate DBAs tasked with keeping these databases in top shape. Its simple to say that you would do the same things you would do for any other database but when you consider an encrypted CMS, etc. its not necessarily clear what is safe and what is not safe in this department. Also, what you as DBAs (if looking) do to keep an eye on things and make sure I/O is ok, you give enough threads, account for growth and increased usage, etc. I can certainly come up with some basics but I have decided to open up a discussion to see what others are doing.

1 account is fine, we consolidate all the time from older docs that used to indicate more than 1.
The primary advantage of using multiple is that when logging on the DB, or other you can see which process is hitting it. Since only yhe CMs would hit either the CMS DB or auditing DB then it really shouldn't matter.

Backingup and Restoring CMS and Auditing Database

We have a senario where out database server is completely down , we are unable to start services on SQL Server and it is not possible to restore them. Now we have our CMS and Auditing databases on that database. We have access to the file system from which we can take mdf and ldf files and restore the same to a new database. But CMS database cannot be restored in that way. How can i restore the CMS to original state. We also have a backup for those databases i.e., .bak file. Please help

Anil,
You should be able to copy the *.MDF & *.LDF set from one SQL Server to another and mount them on another working SQL server. Once you have validated the SQL Server database is mounted properly simple update the ODBC on the BOBJ box to point to the new server. Make sure the ODBC name stays the same.
You problem is more related to back and restore/recover of SQL Server.

CMS and/or S/MIME library in iOS

Hello,
is there a native CMS and/or a S/MIME library on iOS devices? If not, are there any third party libraries you know which work on not jailbroken devices?
Thanks and regards,
Chris

Then the short answer is yes. It is built into the OS. You can send and receive S/MIME messages in iOS.
The long answer is no. There is no API level support for CMS. But there is also no API level support for mail either. There is an API that will bring up an e-mail editing window to send a message using your default e-mail account. If S/MIME is enabled for that account, and you have a certificate for the recipient, then you should be able to send encrypted messages. If you want to send an e-mail in some other fashion, secure or not, you will have to hack it up on your own using lower level interfaces, many of which are on iOS.
