Connect 2 BW servers to one Enterprise portal

Hello Experts - Our client wants to have 1 Enterprise portal (with 2 SID's) and they want to hook-up 2 BW environments related 2 different business units. Is this setting possible? In one of the BI Admin cockpit documentation it was mentioned that we can have 2 BW servers can be monitored from one portal. I just wanted make sure this is possible in general. Appreciate your inputs.
Rgds,
Venu.

Hi Venu,
2 BW systems cannot be integrated into 1 single portal. And the reason is as follows. When you integrate a BW system in the portal, the portal recognies this BW system with the system alias SAP_BW. Since, system aliases are unique and always assigned to only one system at a time in the portal, this means that a 2nd BW system can no longer have the same alias SAP_BW. Thus, you will not be able to use the 2nd BW system simply because the portal always recognizes the first BW system which is having the alias SAP_BW.
Now, you have only 2 options:
1. Implement 2 portals, thus having one portal for each BW system.
2. Go as per point 1, and install a third portal in a federated manner so that the user always uses this third portal and the job of the first two portals is to supply data to the third portal. So this portal can show both the BW systems through application integration with the 2 portals.
However, my suggestion would be to have 2 portals only.
Best Regards,
Shitij

  • Error in connecting to BW System in Enterprise Portal

    The error given is

    Kiran,
    some moe details would be really helpful...
    What are you trying to do, what steps have you already performed etc.
    It looks as if a SAProuter string has been set incorrectly as "/M/G/3220" looks quite weird to me.

  • Configure SSO Connection from SAP Enterprise Portal to BOE Server

    Hi Guys,
    We recently installed a BOE Server and want to connect it to our SAP Enterprise Portal. What we need is just to display the Crystal Reports via Enterprise Portal. We have set up the following:
    SAP EP with AD Authentication
    SAP EP configured with SNC to SAP BI7 system
    SAP BOE XI 3.1 - SAP Integration Kit
    BOE Server configured with SAP Authentication via SAP BI7 System
    We've also set up BOE IK iviews and URL iviews pointing to existing reports in BOE. However, when we access it from EP, it prompts for a username and login to BOE. Is there a way to configure these so that there is no prompt for login to BOE server and SSO is used? Is it also possible to have a service account (e.g. domain/crystal) that will run the reports in BOE everytime a user accesses a report from SAP EP?
    Let me know if this is at all possible

    Hi,
    You should configure InfoView for SSO first, which required infoview.xml file modification, using windows AD default authentication. If you want to utilize the OpenDocument URL for iView then you also need to configure OpenDocument.xml file for SSO also. The SAP portal must have trust relation with the SAP BW server so the Windows AD token can be authenticate with SAP BW server.
    If you want crystal user to run all the report then you will lose data security. It can be done by hard coding user name and password in the report properties and database logon but the SSO capability can be accomplished only by windows AD, SAP or LDAP.
    For more details check BOXI Admin guide and SAP Integration Guide.
    Thanks,

  • BI content and SAP Enterprise portal connection

    Hello All,
    i m new to SAP enterprise portal , can anyone explain me the connection of BI content and Enterprise Portal.Please explain me the flow of publishing the Bi reports to EP.
    Thnks in advc.

    HI Sonal,
    For publishing BI reports in portal you  need to Integrate BI into Portal.
    Please refer to SAP Notes:
    916950
    937697
    They are very helpful.
    Procedure for publishing after integrating BI with portal:
    For this you need to create Roles-Worksets-Pages---Ivews.
    The name of the report which you want to  be displayed in TLN you need to make a Role for that and the tab under that name you need to create worksets for that and the content of the report you need to create an ivew for that in this way your report will be displayed in portal also you need to righht click on the workset and <add workset to Role>and similarly for ivew also keeping entry point "YES" for a role is mandatory with the main report name in TLN and and the sub tabs under below it and the content indetailed navigation.
    For publishing simply create a Role --workset and an ivew .
    During creation of an ivew the wizard will ask you for a Query string that Query will be given to you by your BI people you just neeed to copy that query after ? mark and paste it in and then save it hence your report  is published in portal.
    This is basically the proceddure for publishing BI reports in portal. You can ask any doubts if you hae in this.
    Regards

  • Double stack BI and Enterprise portal for SSO

    I am in the process of configuring a double stack BI and SAP Enterprise Portal. Both systems are residing on different domains. We want to utilize the standalone SAP Enterprise Portal for our BEx etc. For that I have exchanged certificates between the ABAP and the SAP Enterprise Portal systems and with the help of Support desk tool I have overcome the certificate issues. The RFC connection from ABAP and SAP Enterprise Portal works fine. The Support desk tool is complaining now about the prefix of these two servers. Also when I check the connection testing between these two systems all the messages are correct except for WEBAS connection it complains about the ping service which is already active on ABAP side. For Connectors it complains about SSO which is not detected/complained by the Support desk tool (0.426). I need your advice:
    1. Either uninstall the JAVA instance of BI or
    2. Make a Federated Portal network by making the BI JAVA as PRODUCER and the SAP standalone as CONSUMER.
    The Support package levels are the same as EHP1 SP 7 of both the double stack BI and the standalone Enterprise Portal systems. The source of users are both local to the systems.

    Hi
    Remember you have to use a rfc user on the ERP Back end, wich uses virsa roles. So you have to use user and password with JCO connection or SSO.
    Dont forget to check the SLD.  The logon groups should be configured in the right wat.

    Hi,
    Did you find any deprecated API in class files(*.java), It represents like below image.
    Then you have to find relevant jar and replace with a new one.
    Second option is to create new external library with required jars(Replace deprecated jars with new jars) and give reference to existing dc.

    Second is  " How to establish connection to that SAP enterprise portal to SAP Netweaver own portal".
    Third is " If we are trying to access to SAP Netweaver application through SAP Enterprise portal , how we can able to access, do we need to accesss through ivew of SAP Enterprise portal only or can we access the SAP Netweaver application as soon as we enter userid/passwd on first screen of Enterprise portal directly to SAP Netweaver application, without user the ivew of Enterprise portal

  • Only one authenticated user at time in Enterprise Portals

    Hi,
    The standard installation of SAP Enterprise Portals lets to enter the same user to the portal in more than one session. If the user is already logged in the portal, when it login again, a message appears telling the user that he´s already logged in.
    It´s posible configure the portal for only acepting one session per user? If one user tries to login again, the portal don´t should enter to the portal.
    Thanks for your help!
    Luis Jorge Castro

    Luis,
    This could be difficult since HTTP is stateless and a user only has to close the browser and the portal does not know that the user has done this and basically logged off.
    You would probably have to custom write a hidden component that would sit in the header and trap a user closing the browser or choosing logoff. Then on the login side do a similar component that stops users from logging in if they already have a session.
    Nothing standard that I know of I'm afraid.
    BRgds,
    Simon
    P.s. if this helps you in any way please award some points.

  • Open Service Connection to Enterprise Portal system from Solution Manager

    Hi All,
    We are getting below error, when we tried to Enable/Open Service Connection ( DSWP -> Solution Landscape ->Service Connection) to Enterprise Portal system.
    Here we selected the row Connection -> R/3 support  and Connection tab -> open/change connection and clicked on SUBMIT. The we got below short dump.
    Runtime Errors         UNCAUGHT_EXCEPTION
    Exception              CX_WD_CONTEXT
    Short text
        An exception occurred that was not caught.
    What happened?
        The exception 'CX_WD_CONTEXT' was raised, but it was not caught anywhere along the call hierarchy.
        Since exceptions represent error situations and this error was not adequately responded to, the running ABAP program
         'CL_WDR_CONTEXT_NODE===========CP' has to be
        terminated.
    What can you do?
        Note down which actions and inputs caused the error.
        To process the problem further, contact you SAP system

    Error analysis:
        An exception occurred which is explained in detail below.
        The exception, which is assigned to class 'CX_WD_CONTEXT', was not caught and
        therefore caused a runtime error.

    Hi,
      How have you defined the property "WAS host" for the portal system that you have created for the back-end?
    You might get this error if the way you have defined this WAS host property and the way you are calling the portal are different. For example, if your WAS host property is "<hostname>:<portnumber>" and you are calling your portal as "localhost:<portnumber>", then you will get this error.
      Also are you connecting to your portal using the fully qualified domain name? Don't call the portal simply as
    <i>http://<host>:<port>/irj</i> but call it as http://<host>.<domain>:<port>/irj.
