Comparison Refresh System

Hello experts,
I'd like to know what the best solution for refreshing systems between Data Sync Manager from Epiuse (DSM) and Landscape Virtualization Management from SAP (LVM).
I've already read a lot of papers about both solutions like this one:
Comparisons between SAP TDMS vs. 3rd Party Data transfer tools
Of course I also took a look to a lot of papers talking about how great both are.
What I want is feedback from people who could use these solutions for data copy, their pros and cons, especially cons.
I know that the greatest point of DSM is that it can slice data by time or objects to make the target system lighter than the source, and LVM can do also copy and post copy automation (PCA) with a bundle for a better system administration. Both can also do data scrambling, even if for LVM we have to use another solution like SAP TDMS. Both support the most important old and recent SAP application releases (ERP, SRM, CRM, GTS, BW,SCM, NW).
So please, give me some points that could make me decide what's the best one.
Thank you in advance.
Best regards,
Alex.
P.S.: if you want to talk about other solutions than SAP LVM and Epiuse DSM, please do, it could help others.

Here is an interesting discussion on TDMS vs DSM:
SAP TDMS - comparison with Data Sync Manager
So now the comparison would be TDMS vs LVM vs DSM.

  • Refresh system matrix

    I have added a user defined field at the row level.I am performing some calculation on this udf in the goods receipt po form.I need to refresh this system matrix after performing calculations.Is it possible to refresh system matrix programatically ?

    Hi Dilip,
    Anoop is right, there is no function for refreshing the matrix so you'll have to get around it like this:
    1. Update the document
    2. Freeze the form
    3. Put the form in Find mode
    4. Fill in the document number (docnum)
    5. Programmatically click the Find button (OK button)
    6. Put the form back in the mode it was before
    7. Unfreeze the form

  • How to dynamically refresh system properties when changed

    Hi All,
    Through weblogic startup class I'm loading the properties from a properties file
    into system properties, Now my requirement is to refresh those system properties
    when ever I make changes to the properties.
    Is there any way to achieve this functionality through MBeans.

    Hello Lucky,
    I believe you cannot refresh properties file dynamically using MBeans. What
    you can do is write an MBean which necessrily mirror your property file and
    register with MBeanServer. You can set values on the MBean dynamically but
    in order to persist your changes you need to write your own persistance
    mechanism.
    Cheers

  • Automating ABAP version comparisons across systems

    Hi Team,
    I am trying to create a report which would accept a given transport number and compare the object inside (ABAP code/transformation) to its active version in the production systems and spot differences, if any.
    I know this can be done via Se38 - Utilities - Versions - Version Management - Remote Comparison.
    I also know that ABAP4_CALL_TRANSACTION can be used to call SE38 but I am unable to figure out how to pass the input of object name and go further into drilldowns via this report/program.
    Any inputs would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks
    Purnima

    Purnima Viswanath, indeed ZARC does not have this feature. Yet. As you know, this is an open source solution, and anyone - including you - can contribute to it. And when I say you, I mean specially you. Why? Because most developers who contributed to a specific open source project were users first. They had recognized a true value in it, but also some gaps that would make the leap from a good project to a great one. This has happened to Linux, Wordpress, SAPlink and so many other projects. And I truly deeply believe that ZARC can make this leap at some point, but it needs contributors.
    So I invite you to add this (very important, in my opinion) piece of functionality. And if you think you need a better understanding on ZARC's architecture or anything else related to ZARC, please feel free to contact me and I will happily help you help ZARC.
    I wrote ZARC for a very personal/selfish reason. Then I decided to improve it's architecture and share it so other people like you can also benefit from it. Now it's your turn. Please, use ZARC as an accelerator or shortcut for solving your real need. And please, share it with us all, so other people can benefit from it, just like you did.
    Thank you!

  • Role Comparison Cross System - alternatives to RSUSR050

    Hello Experts,
    Would there be an alternative for Cross system role comparison outside of using RSUSR050 ?
    We have a variety of landscapes and are on different basis levels...SAP notes have corrected all but one
    which is older release level- business not ready to upgrade this one
    I have dabbled with SCMP tcode but results are not clear or complete. I was using table AGR_1250 and 1251
    Any thoughts appreciated ..
    Dan.

    Thanks Bernhard,
    i guess i need a little instruction on how to use this tcode (if that's the best method). When i compare  2 roles that are different
    SCMP notes they are the same ? but i notice there is a field that selects Role id - only allows one numeric input. Can't seem to
    get an entire display of the auth objects. I did this by entering our RFC dest and table name AGR_1251.
    Any other alternatives.   The SUIM (RSUSR050) works fine functionally and we have RFC dest but because of the differing Basis levels on this particular destination server- the results are erroneous and incomplete.  Thanks !

  • SLT refresh/system copy

    Hi,
    We would be going for a SLT refersh from production to Acceptance.
    Please do share any documents related to this.
    Thanks,
    Rajiv

    Hi Rajiv,
    Early last year I discussed with my customer approaches how such a refresh could be realized and what needs to be considered.
    I can share my thoughts with you, however I have to emphasize that we never tested the procedures in detail. And in nowadays versions of SLT some transactions might be different.
    So please keep them as a hint but not as a guideline.
    How-to refresh QAS from PRD in SLT scenario?
    Landscape:
    Production landscape consist of ERP-system PRD, with replication to HANA-database HAP via SLT-server SLP
    Quality landscape consist of ERP-system QAS, with replication to HANA-database HAQ via SLT-server SLQ
    Scenario:
    QAS system should be refreshed with recent PRD data
    Approaches:
    A.      Refresh QAS from PRD, clean HAQ, repeat replication
    B.      Refresh QAS from PRD, HAQ from HAP and SLQ from SLP
    A. Detailed steps for approach A: Refresh + repeat replication
    ** not tested **
    1.       Backup PRD
    2.       Stop the master replication job in HAQ (transaction LTR -> jobs tab -> Edit -> Stop)
    3.       Refresh QAS from ERP backup
    4.       Clean up old replication
    a.       Delete old configuration in HAQ (transaction LTR)
    b.      Delete triggers in refreshed QAS system
    i.      Call transaction IUUC_REMOTE à Expert Functions à Delete Triggers à Enter the names of the replicated tables à Execute
    If step i. is successful, continue with step c., otherwise go on with next step ii.-iv.
    ii.      Determine all triggers
    iii.      Execute function module DB_DROP_TRIG in transaction SE37 for every trigger (specify EXEC  = X, TABNAME = tabname and TRIG_NAME = trigger name)
    iv.      Verify that no triggers remain
    Alternative: You can also write a sqlscript for all tables/triggers and run it on db level
    c.       Delete logging tables in refreshed QAS system:
    d.      List all logging tables: transaction SE11, enter /1CADMC/* à press F4 key; then copy the logging table names to notepad; copy all names into the clipboard
    i.      Call transaction IUUC_REMOTE à Expert Functions à Delete Logging Tables à copy the trigger names from clipboard to the input selection à Execute
    ii.      Verify that all logging tables have been deleted (as in i.). It seems that the logging tables for DD02L and DD02T will still exist; in this case drop the two logging tables in DB level.
    e.      Cleanup SLT server HAQ:
    i.      IUUC_REPL_CONFIG:                  Should be empty
    ii.      IUUC_REPL_CONPAR:                 Should be empty
    iii.      IUUC_REPL_HDR                           Should be empty
    iv.      IUUC_REPL_MAP                          Should be empty
    v.      IUUC_RS_STATUS                         Should be empty
    vi.      IUUC_RS_ORDER                           Should be empty
    vii.      IUUC_TABLES                                  Should be empty
    viii.      DMC_COBJ                                       Should be empty
    ix.      DMC_MT_TABLES                         Should be empty
    x.      IUUC_LOGTAB_ID                         Will be filled, so delete the entries with transaction SE16
    xi.      DMC_STRUC_ID                             Will be filled, so delete the entries with transaction SE16
    xii.      DMC_ACT_REC                                              Will be filled, so delete the entries with transaction SE16
    xiii.      Run report DMC_CLEANUP_USAGE in transaction SE38 with flag ‘delete all kinds of zombies’
    xiv.      Run report DMC_CLEANUP_USAGE in transaction SE38 with flag ‘delete all kinds of zombies’ and subproject = ZIUUC_<MTID> with <MTID> is the name of the mass transfer id of the configuration
    xv.      DMC_MT_HEADER                       Will be filled, so delete the entries with transaction SE16
    f.        HANA Studio connect with SYSTEM user to HAQ, go to Catalog > Authorization > Users and delete the user of the replication (cascade option)
    5.       Setup new configuration in SLQ
    a.       Check RFC connection in transaction SM59 from SLQ to QAS
    b.      Transaction LTR: Create new configuration
    c.       In the studio, check schema created in HAQ
    d.      In the studio, data provisioning, verify that tables DD02L, DD02T and DD08L are replicated
    e.      Prepare a text file with all tables to be replicated
    f.        In the studio, data provisioning, load the text file and add the tables to the replication
    B. Detailed steps for approach B: Consistent Refresh all Systems
    ** not tested **
    1.       Backup all systems
    a.      Stop the master replication job in HAP (transaction LTR -> jobs tab -> Edit -> Stop)
    b.      Backup first PRD, then HAP and finally SLP
    c.       Start the master replication job in HAP again (transaction LTR)
    2.       Refresh QAS from ERP backup, no BDLS
    3.       Refresh HAQ from HAP backup
    4.       Refresh SLQ from SLP backup
    5.       Adapt SLT configuration, i.e. RFC connection to QAS  in SLQ
    6.       Adopt hana server name in SLT configuration(/LTR), can be done inside db connection to HANA(/DBCO)
    7.       Update table “SYS_REPL”.”RS_REPLICATION_COMPONENTS” in hana and change the server name and configuration for the SLT replications.
    8.       Start the master replication job in HAQ again (transaction LTR)
    9.       Run BDLS in QAS to change logical system name (SLT will replicate the changes to HANA)
    END *

  • Remote comparison between systems on a table

    Hi All,
    I would like to do similar thing I can see in the program version control remote comparison, but for tables contents. I found an RFC "TABLE_ENTRIES_GET_VIA_RFC" which can be used for this. Nevertheless, do you have any other suggestions which do not use logon procedure if it's not necessary(like in the program version control)? Thanks for your help in advance. 
    Regards,
    Gyula

    Gyula,
    I believe it is all controlled in SM59 where you can set the login id and password as trusted. Whe you call this function module remotely from your program, the logical destination system set in SM59 probably not set as trusted.
