Content Server File Information

Hi Experts,
We upload files through BSP portal and store it in content server.
Now we need to do an Analysis on the size of the document that is been uploaded every month.
Is it possible to get this info through any DB table.
Thanks.
Cheers,
Kishore

We found a solution for transfering GTS documents "back" into ERP system. A report send the binary data from GTS server to ERP server and creates a document link on the original invoice. Now we are able to show and print this documents with transaction VF03 as PDF.
Issue solved ;-)

If the content resides on the content server and you click export next to an RCO, there is an option on the export screen for SCORM 1.2 to download the content as well, so this can be done individually for each content object to obtain its content.

Content server/file system/apache

Hello
I wander is web server(like apache) needed if using filesystem based content server (not maxdb based).
Do you have some link to this topic?
Thank you in advance

Hi,
I see one of the pre-requisites is to install apache web server (1.3.xx) for unix environment. The install manual should tell on compilation of Apache webserver.
Then in the post-installation step, you should restart apache web server.
Please note that you should always use native compiler to compile Apache of your platform
Please see also SAP Note 664384 & 586895
Hope this helps.

Can't get Adobe Content Server files recognized on my tablet (android)

What eReader app will work with ACS files?

How much storage do you have left on that 64GB SSD? 4GB ram is fairly comfortable (if you're doing absolutely nothing else) while using Flash. The paired down tablet specs are most certainly crimping the performance.
You have to know apps like Photoshop may let you brush but the application is primarily a bitmap engine which operates at memory speed and certainly has no overhead from being a multimedia, scriptable IDE. As you pile up dozens of layers, especially with vectors and filters, Photoshop will also start to lag just the same.
You have to keep in mind, you really have a tablet. The i5 1.6GHz is not a normal i5, it's a mobile i5 product. I have an i5 quad also (2500k), but the desktop model (Sandy/Ivy) runs at 3.7GHz in turbo, and that's an old model (Sandy). Also the desktop i5 has Intel HD4000 graphics which is extremely slow (outside simple video playback) and your i5 is even slower, only Intel HD3000 graphics. Clearly there's a big difference and you should expect tablet performance.
Just about the only thing you can do to increase performance, especially in a vector heavy app, is reduce any other things going on. Slim out your OS as best you can, removing any unnecessary apps or services running. Update all your drivers and if you're not using WHQL drivers for the HD3000 on your display driver you should revert back to Win7 for fully supported drivers (which is the version of Windows I think the Slate originally came with). Unless something is corrupt or no WHQL driver support exists for HD3000, I don't see what else it can be besides perhaps no WHQL support for your input driver either.
I'm on a 5 year old Dell touchscreen laptop at a higher resolution (1600x900) running an old i7 @ 1.6GHz quad (similar to yours) with 4GB DDR2 (slower) and Flash runs perfectly fine. Although I'm not running Intel HD graphics. I'm running it on a discreet ATI Mobility Radeon HD.

DMS: Relocation of storage category/documents to another content server

Our DMS content server was implemented with a 3-tier environment (dev-test-production). There are several SAP instances storing documents to a shared storage category in the global DMS server.
I found recently that one of the production instances on 4.6C was inadvertently configured to store documents on the DMS development server in this same storage category name.
I have found programs to relocate documents from one storage category to another, which could be used if I configured a new storage category pointing to the production content server. However, for business reasons the name of the storage category should not be changed.
Note 445057 and document "Operational Guide - SAP Content Server" provide information on relocation of documents using programs RSCMSEX (export) and RSCSMIM (import). I would like to use these reports to export the documents stored incorrectly on the development server, change the configuration of the content server to the production server address, and import the documents back into the existing storage category.
The documentation does not state whether RSCMSIM will add the imported documents to existing content or will delete all other documents. I would like to insure that I will not lose existing documents in the production server.
I would appreciate advice or feedback from anyone familiar with these programs or relocating documents in DMS.
Thank you,
Kathie

Hi Aby,
if setting up a profile does not help, another proposal would be to use the BADI DOCUMENT_STORAGE01 with method BEFORE_LIST_STORAGECAT. Because here you will be able to influence which storage categories are displayed at "Check in to Kpro and Selecting the storage category". If only one category is handed back by the BADI method the pop-up should be avoided and the selected category should be choosen.
Maybe this could be a solution.
Best regards,
Christoph

How to extract original file contents from content server

Hi,
1)How can we extract original file contents from the content server (which in our case is SAP database itself)...
2)What exactly is PHIO_ID and LOIO_ID?
Thanks and regards,
Santhosh Kumar U.P

Hi,
concerning your first question - please decribe, what you are trying to do.
Question 2:
LOIO_ID is the ID of the Logical Information Object. A LOIO is not a real document, but kind of a virtual document, a containerfor all "real" versions of a document. A PHIO (physical info object) is a real document.

Content Server Report- Document types with file sizes & Status history

Hi
We are about to start with implementing Seal Systems, however we are a global company with to start with 4 content servers in different regions of the world. In order to determine bandwidth for future strategies, I need to know what is stored on each content server in terms of document types, type file and size of files attached to each document type and of course date created and status changes of each document.
In addition we are of course contemplating usage of SAP Cache servers, not only for better responses, but also for backup purposes.
What we are using is SAP ECC 6 with the content servers using MAX DB. I have contemplated creating a Z program in order to return only the required information for import in Excel where I can then manipulate the returned result to a report which fits us.
But before I start with this, does anyone know of any report or tools just to do that within SAP? I have seen these capabilities in other PLM solutions.
I would appreciate any feedback in this regard
with friendly regards
Joe Kosterman

Hi Joe,
maybe transaction DB20 could help you here.
From DMS side tables DMS_PHIO2FILE and DMS_PH_CD1 are most relevant for original data stored in Content Server.
Regarding the changes of documents report MCDOKABL will show you all the changes done for a specific document.
For maintaining and monitoring content repositories please see transaction CSADMIN.
Best regards,
Christoph

How to get the file on the content server via ABAP

Hi
We are working on an abap that should download certain files stored on the content server and store them on a different file location using GUI_DOWNLOAD. How can we retrieve the files (PDF's) via ABAP from the contentserver?
Hope someone can help
Cheers

Hi,
I think the DMS BAPIs could be useful here. For example you can use BAPI Document_CheckOutViewX or Document.CheckOutView2. You will find the documentation for these BAPIs in transaction BAPI under subtopic 'Cross-Application-Components'.
Further maybe the information in the SAP note 504692 and 796709 could be useful too.
Best regards,
Christoph

Issue with Users trying to contribute a file to content server

Hi,
I have an instance of UCM 10g 10.1.3.3 installed and off later suddenly some users have started getting the message "Unable to build check in form. User '<username>' does not have sufficient privileges." when they try to checkin a file.
I checked the user admin to see these users previliges and they seem fine. I mean they have RW previliges on the group.
When the user logs into the system they cannot see the "New Checkin" option which is also strange.
Here is what got recorded in the content server log file..
Event generated by user '<username>' at host 'orclinsight.oraclecorp.com'. Content item <undefined> was not successfully checked in. User '<username>' does not have sufficient privileges. [ Details ]
An error has occurred. The stack trace below shows more information.

Yes Tim is correct. Support would say that any direct changes to the DB layer without the CS services layer doing it would not be supported. Only in rare cases where development tells support to do otherwise are direct DB level edits supported.
So approaching the external users getting the correct security as a problem; support would probably suggest something like use the proxycredentialsmap component to map your security from the SSO application to the proper roles in the CS instead of using scripts to create local users and map them manually. Or create the users one time at beginning of the project (using your db level edits to create users and give them roles etc) and test to see if it works and do no integration with a SSO application that can change your users and mess up your plans later.
I would guess that a one time creation of users via script in the CS would be no real problem to support but anything dynamic and coded that would have to be debugged would be a problem. Custom code (even simple custom code in a workflow or profile) is not directly supported. Too big of a pandora's box being opened.

Archive Repository - Content Server or Root File System?

Hi All,
We are in the process of evaluating a storage solution for archiving and I would like to hear your experiences and recommendations. I've ruled out 3rd-party solutions such as IXOS as over kill for our requirement. That leaves us with the i5/OS root file system or the SAP Content Server in either a Linux partition or on a Windows server. Has anyone done archiving with a similar setup? What issues did you face? I don't plan to replicate archive objects via MIMIX.
Is anyone running the SAP Content Server in a Linux partition? I'd like to know your experience with this even if you don't use the Content Server for archiving. We use the Content Server (currently on Windows) for attaching files to SAP documents (e.g., Sales Documents) via Generic Object Services (GOS). While I lean towards running separate instances of the Content Server for Archiving and GOS, I would like to run them both in the same Linux LPAR.
TIA,
Stan

Hi Stanley,
If you choose to store your data archive files at the file system level, is that a secure enough environment? A third party certified storage solution provides a secure system where the archive files cannot be altered and also provides a way to manage the files over the years until they have met their retention limit.
Another thing to consider, just because the end users may not need access to the archived data, your company might need to be able to access the data easily due to an audit or law suit situation.
I am a SAP customer whose job function is the technical lead for my company's SAP data archiving projects, not a 3rd party storage solution provider , and I highly recommend a certified storage solution for compliance reasons.
Also, here is some information from the SAP Data Archiving web pages concerning using SAP Content Server for data archive files:
10. Is the SAP Content Server suitable for data archiving?
Up to and including SAP Content Server 6.20 the SAP CS is not designed to handle large files, which are common in data archiving. The new SAP CS 6.30 is designed to also handle large files and can therefore technically be used to store archive files. SAP CS does not support optical media. It is especially important to regularly run backups on the existing data!
Recommendation for using SAP CS for data archiving:
      Store the files on SAP CS in a decompressed format (make settings at the repository)
       Install SAP CS and SAP DB on one server
       Use SAP CS for Unix (runtime tests to see how SAP CS for Windows behaves with large files still have to be carried out)

hi ,
pls refer the below thread :
Dynamic Use of Mime in component
n check wid thomas reply in the thread :
Create the cached response object that we will insert the content
Well you can manipulate the MIME content at runtime by using the API: CL_MIME_REPOSITORY_API. However if your content is temporary, it is more efficient to just place the content directly into the ICM cache. You don't have the overhead of having to both write and then delete it from the database. Here is an example of how you can do this:
I hope it wud be helpful

Content Server 6.40 Presents a Save As dialog for ContentServer.dll file

hi All
we have installed successfully the content server 6.40 on a windows 2008 with iis 7 environment. The installation wen successfully with no errors. however when we run a test by calling the URL http://<server>:<port>/ContentServer/ContentServer.dll?serverInfo URL, instead of getting a response, we are getting a save as file dialog to save the dll file. Also, after the installation, even with the install website tick checked, the website was not installed. we had to do the installation of the website manually for the port.
With content server 620 on windows 2000 this was never the case
if anywone has an idea on how to resolve the issue, please advice
Regards
Ronny

GOT the Solution
to anyone else who could be going through the same issue, see if the solution below solves your issue
The website should get created if all the roles in IIS 7.0 are installed. Therefore, please try to install the IIS 7.0 by selecting
all the roles followed by installation of the SAP Content Server. By doing so, websites should be created automatically.
In the IIS 7.0, all the roles are not selected during the installation by default. Please make sure all the below roles are included and IIS 7.0 is installed, as per the installation manual for the Content Server on Windows 2008:
Roles needed in IIS 7.0.

Copy any kind of file from content server to network directory

Helli All
The question:
I nee to copy any kind of file from content server to any network directory.
Explanation
1. transaction CV02N
2. There is attached file for a document in tab "Document data/Original"
3. This file stored in content server
4. I wrote program code that creates path of the stored file that finally looks like
http://cont:8888/ContentServer.dll?get&Version=.....*...&compid=app1.doc
where app1.doc is file's name and I have to copy this file into network directory.
The problem is that this URL open the file instead of just pointing to him
so that no function or method can't see this file and as the result I got message that
the file doesn\t exist.
Please, advice.
Regards,
Daniel.

many many thanks for ur help. i really did not check the URLClassLoader properly.
but i would like to hear a little more from u. i have another question. here in this code (provided earlier), i searched for attribute values in the manifest file, then again i load the required class file from the very url. is it not good to retrieve the whole jar file first, and then check attribute values inside manifest file and load the required class files from that jar file that is already downloaded without going to that url again? how can i do this?
