CTS+ Transport Strategy

Dear all,
We are planning to setup CTS+ in our system landscape.
Please provide your inputs, on the pros and cons of this strategy.
Also direct me to links of CTS+ documents on SDN.
Thanks for the help.
Regards,
Younus

Hi,
CTS+ transport is like ABAP way of doing transport of ABAP objects in r/3..........after deploying CTS+ in your XI system, you can release your objects for CTS+ transport from IR, ID and then a transport request for it will be created for you, which you can then release and finally import it in target system.

ChaRM: usage of ChaRM and none-Charm transport strategy

Hi ChaRM-TMS Gurus!
We have the following [SAP system landscape |http://www.file-upload.net/view-1086963/SDN_TMS_Ist_Soll.jpg.html] and would like to use ChaRM approach simultaneously.
What are the minimal requirements concerning transport layers/routes, which settings should be changed?
How much and which transport layer/routes does ChaRM need?
a) 1 any new transport layer/route
b) standard transport layer, transport layer "SAP" and others
Should all the standard transport layer/routes from virtual systems to real QAS and PRD systems or can I start as follows:
1) Leave the current TMS settings unchanged
2) Activate the extended transport control
Result: the current setting will be client specific and all the old transport requests will be moved to client specific transport routes
3) change the transport strategy (from mass transport to single transport)
3) Define new transport layer
4) Define new transport route for SAP objects from DEV to QAS
and assign the transport layer from 3) (client specific)
5) Define new transport route ZXXX from DEV to QAS
and assign the transport layer from 3) (client specific)
6) Define the delivery transport route from QAS to PRD (client specific)
7) activate and distribute the settings
Thank you very much indeed!

Hi Martin,
Solmaniacs' assumptions are correct. You can have as many source clients as you want.
As long as
- STMS configuration (transport routes, and domain links) are consistent
- SMSY configuration (logical components are declared properly with assigning the right role types to systems/clients)
- Project declaration are done correctly (so that from Solman solar_project_admin you can read the STMS as confiured in the distant STMS domain)
- IMPORTANT: those configuration GO ALONG with each other !! (SMSY should nt contradict STMS for example...)
The tasklist that is generated for each Solman project will be as follow
- Node 1: Header Tasks (commun to all systems)
- Node x: Corresponding to track x declared in Project (each Source System will have his own node with the corresponding track under)
- Node x+1
- Node ...
- Last Node : Tasks for Tasklist closure - checks on scma consistancy and CTS projects closure
So you'll always have n+2 nodes in your tasklist; n beeing the number of declared source (=dev) systems in project
For each action launched from change docuemnts like creation of TR, release of TR or Retrofit (as Solmaniac said) you'll have an additional pop-up that will appears letting you choose the system you want to use for the action
Hope its helpful

Transport strategy of BI-BO Objects

How to transport the BI-BO objects across the landscapes? I mean WEBI, DEKI, XCELCIUS, Crystal and all other BO reports
created on BI Queries/Infoproviders.
Can we have BO reports saved along with our regular BEX Queries in BEX folders?
Can we publish BO reports in BI portal?
Plz help in understanding the transport strategy of BI-BO objects!!

If you're using XIR2 you have only one option - Import Wizard tool. If you are on Xi3.1 you have 2 options Import Wizard or LCM (Life Cycle Manager).
Documentation for both available at http://help.sap.com/businessobjects.
Can we have BO reports saved along with our regular BEX Queries in BEX folders?
No
Can we publish BO reports in BI portal?
Yes, if you're using CR reports.

Communication channel parameters are not tranported in CTS+ transport

Hi,
My scenario is MDM to jms.
we have configured the cts+ transport in our system.
We transported the ESR and ID objects from development to Quality.
But in the sender mdm communication channel the everything is getting transported except Repository password.
when i checked in the quality system the Repository password was blank.
And receiver jms communication channel details are in
dev system
IP Address or server Name:135.12.14.12
server port                          :3321
Queue manange name       :RRTYRKB
channel name                  :KDIEKE.MDM
Quality System
IP Address or server Name:localhost
server port                        :1414
Queue manange name       :QM_hostname
channel name                    :S_hostname
i want know whether this is the case when we do the cts+ transport?
if it is the case should i edit the objects in the Quality sysem(which i don't want to do).
Thanks.
Regards,
Muniyappan.

Hi,
>>>if it is the case should i edit the objects in the Quality sysem(which i don't want to do).
communication channel attrubites always get reset in the new env - TEST, PRD, etc.
and you always need to fill them once more - this is the normal way
otherwise - would you like to use DEV parameters on PRD system ?
maintaining the channel attributes is a typical task on all landscapes

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

Import CTS+ transport into Portal failed with Returncode:'12'

Hi, Gurus!
I have encountered the problem while deploying CTS+ transport to the Portal (system XO3): Returncode:'12' class java.io.IOException:

Maybe the different slashes "\" and "/" are the cause of the porblem? Both systems (Portal and Solution manager) run on Windows 2003 Servers.
I have checked the "Note 1232674 - class java.io.IO exception during import" and set up the full control permissions to access "\sapmnt\" for the local (solman) user SAPServiceXO3 but it does not help.
I've created a local "SAPServiceXO3" user in the server of Solman and have given to it highest permissions to the file share. Has anybody any idea how to resolve the problem?
Thanks in advance.

Transport strategy for your transport landscape is inconsistent

Hello everybody,
we had 4 system landscape.
DEV>QAS>TST-->PRD.
we move the request from DDEV >QAS>TST and then forward request from TST to PRD system.
Now, we have delete the system TST from TMS, after deletion it give the warning.
Transport strategy for your transport landscape is inconsistent.
Message No. XT481
Please suggest, what is meaning of this warning and how to correct.
Thanks
Ganesh

You need to do following
1. Logon to domain controller client 000 -->STMS --> Overview System --> Select TST --> SAP System --> Delete
2. Reconfigure STMS DEV>QAS>PRD
3.STMS --> Overview Transport Routes --> Configuration --> Distribute and Activate (To All System)
Note : You should do this from Domain Controller client 000
I assumed you know Step 2. If you dont please let me know i can guide you on that as well
Cheers !

SAP Query Use and Transport Strategy

Anyone wish to share their experience in the use of SAP Query? We generally have an understanding that we don't want to be giving out this tool to end-users in Production. We would like to create queries, and when we wish to give them out we'll attach t-codes to them and roll them out.
However in practice, this is becoming difficult. An example is where in our gold client we create queries and then we would typically transport to our unit test client. But whenever we do an export, it generates a transport request. Before we are done testing we may end up with 10's of transports for a single query?
Anyone have some ideas on a transport strategy for SAP Query? How about it's use in Production? Our landscape for changes are typically DEV Gold -> DEV Test -> QAS -> PRD. We would ideally like our transport strategy for queries to match what we do for everything else.

HI,
Query objects are transported in different ways according to the query area in which they were created.
In order to know which transport options are available, you must first understand how query objects are created.
Standard Area
Query objects are stored in the client-specific table AQLDB. They are not connected to the Change and Transport Organizer.
Global Area
Query objects are stored in the cross-client table AQGDB. They are connected to the Change and Transport Organizer.
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_47x200/helpdata/en/d2/cb467f455611d189710000e8322d00/content.htm
Global area objects can be transported into other systems. Standard area query objects can not only be transported to other clients within their own system, but into all clients of other systems as well. In addition, query objects can be transported from the global query area to the standard query area and back within the same system.Transports are normally performed by the system administrator, not by end-users. For this reason, you need the appropriate authorizations

SAP-XI Transport Strategy

Hello
Can anyone please point me to SAP-XI transport strategy document. e.g what would you transport, what tool would you use etc.
Thanks.

Hi,
We have two options
-- one is File transfer method through which we can export the objects into a file and that can be imported in another.
here we can export individual obeject and SWCv wise,namespace wise also.
-- Another one is CMS
through this option tracks are to be defined from DEV-QA-PROD
see the below links

Transport strategy for BOE landscape

I am looking for a transport strategy for BOE landscape from security viewpoint. Basically we want to transport crystal reports, webi reports and folders along with security principles (BW roles/users included). Can anybody provide more info on this?
Regards,
Prasad

Yeah...we have LCM (XI 3.1 onwards) and Import Wizard for BOE tranports. But if we use BW roles as principles, transporting reports/folders with Security doesn't give desired results.
For example, if I am transporting a webi report with principle DEV001@RoleA from Dev to QA/PRD, I would get a new group in QA with name DEV001@RoleA instead of QAS001@RoleA. *I am looking for a pointer change here from DEV001 to QAS~001*. I think we have this feature of changing system pointers for Connections/Universes/Crystal Reports in LCM.
I know we need to move crystal reports and publish them again in QAS/PRD but this way we need to assign security for folders. I want to avoid these efforts by doing one time configuration in DEV and moving it to QAS/PRD through LCM. This is more consistent with current SAP Netweaver transport strategy.

Prasad

Mass transport strategy but satellite system is configured for ChaRM

We want that all transports are automatically transported in the development test client.
We have calling a job with program TMS_BCI_START_SERVICE in the satellite system. But this program can only be used for mass transports and does not work when single transports strategy is activated.
Question:
Is there no solution to transport all this transports automatically in development test client via mass transport strategy if satellite system is configured for ChaRM scenario?
Thanks a lot in advance.

Re: Workflow controlled Transport Strategy

Hi friends,
we are using workflow controlled transport strategy in our landscape. So far we are using existing help help.sap.com to configure the same. But we found that it is not enough for completing configuration in perspective of out client requirement. Can anybody help to get the more help on this?
Any help would be highly appreciated.

SAP Note : 313991
Due to the approval of a request in the QAS system, this becomes
active in the import queue of system VDE (status: Request is ready
for import). Refused requests receive the following status:
Request was refused.
o The RSTMS_DIST_APPROVED_REQUESTS program is used to transfer the
requests with the status "Request is ready for import" from the VDE
import queue to the supply system of VDE (that is, the PRD
production system or, if necessary, several production systems and
clients) and then to delete them from the import queue of VDE.
Refused requests (status: Request was refused) are also deleted
from the VDE queue.
You can choose between the following options:
- Transfer all approved requests:
All approved requests from the VDE queue which are before the
end are transfermark (stop mark) red. All requests that have
not yet been processed with the QA procedure remain in the VDE
queue until a decision (approval or refusal) has been made.

Transport strategy for BPC

Hi all,
Is there a transport strategy for BPC. How do we move changes made in the development to the testing to the production environment? How do we transport the changes? Is it done manually or does BPC have a feature that automatically transport the changes? Does BPC keep automatically track of the changes?
Thanks.

I think this OP's message was posted in the wrong forum. In any case, there's a whitepaper on the transports for BPC 7.0NW.

CTS Transports in Portal

Hi
Using CTS..how can i do transports in portal
Thanks

Using Enhanced CTS (CTS+), you can transport portal and NWDI transports with transaction STMS.
After you have done the required configuration for enabling CTS+ in your landscape, portal or NWDI transports can be attached to a CTS transport request. Once you have attached your portal or NWDI transport to your CTS request, the process is similar to transporting any ABAP transports.
You can check out the following blog and article on how to configure this:
Enhanced CTS in close coupling configuration for portal environment
