CTs vs CMS

Hello folks
Which is a better way to transport XI objects from QA to Prod?
CTS or CMS considering all the aspects Hardware etc?
Thanks

Hi,
Change management system (CMS)
Change Management Service (CMS) is part of SAP NetWeaver Development Infrastructure (NWDI). This service enables you to configure your transport landscape and manage the transport of objects between different systems.
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/f85ff411-0d01-0010-0096-ba14e5db6306
Automated procedure for tranporting....
1. Configure the CMs according to the envinorment and then no reason to login to server to copy the files.
2. Easier
3. Takes less time comapred to fielsystem
4. Feasible for lansacpae having more interfacess
5. COnfiguration has to be done setting various servers according to the server time spent in cofg may be more
CMS --> Its runs on J2EE engine.
Change Transport system (CTS)
The CTS is the central tool for managing changes to Customizing and Repository data that you make in the IMG or ABAP Workbench. The CTS records all changes in change requests.

Difference between CMS & CTS:
Change Management Service (CMS) is part of SAP NetWeaver Development Infrastructure (NWDI). This service
enables you to configure your transport landscape and manage the transport of objects between different
systems.
It runs on JAVA Engine.CMS is generally used to transport Javadevelopment objects. The XI Integration
Server uses CMS to transport Integration Servercontent.
Change Transport system (CTS)
The CTS is the central tool for managing changes to Customizing and Repository data that you make in the
ABAP Workbench. The CTS records all changes in change requests.
CTS is the Product Completion Level.Shows the production process phase that has been reached by the
product.
SAP recommends the CMS, because that is the part of SAP NetWeaver Development Infrastructure, so obviously it is better and gives high performance according to my knowledge.

  • 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.
    Regards,
    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,about cms

    as far as know,
    as of sap pi 7.0,
    we do not have to transport objects of IR,ID by using CMS.
    is that so?
    if so, how to transport objects of IR,ID from DEV to CONS, and to PROD?
    can anybody provide  some stuffs for this?

    Just that we have an additional option of using CTS+ for transports.

  • Recommendation for transport

    Hi,
    now I want to transport in PI 7.1 my objects from SLD, ESR and ID from DEV to QA and later to PROD.
    What is a recommanded way?
    Transport by using the File System Transport (Export/Import)?
    In ESR is very easy to export all the objects and import them in the QA.
    But for SLD and ID its not so easy, for example in the QA I need different names for my business system, for the comm. channels different settings in the technical system different ip an so on ...
    Or it is a better way to use CMS?
    Thanks
    Edgar

    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.
    In CTS+ a unique number - Transport number is created to track it & you have Java & ABAP object in it

  • Compare XI objects

    I have two questions.
    1. Which Tcode can be used to compare two XI objects crossclient just as SE39 does this job for abap.
    2. Given a scenario.Ex in DEV i have mapping object X .In PRD same object has already been moved befor e, but not by CTS+
    or CMS  (i mean only file transport).
    Now i try to use CMS or CTS+ today.Will transport management system not deny me saying that previous versions are not identical?(Looking for an expert opinion here).

    >>Mr Jaishankar ,there are so many UDF's ,Huge mapping (graphical),Fixed values.How can one guess a change ?.
    You can't. That is why I said it is manual and not automatic.
    >>I remember a gentleman from this forum itself applauding about XI transport system and consulting me to go through version and change management.I am actually impressed gentleman.
    May be the gentleman knows more than me.
    >>I attribute this to poor design of XI ,whether its repository managment,change management and transport management.
    You are comparing an ABAP object with a Java object (and not just a java code but a graphical representation of a Java code) here. Remember there is a lot of difference. But I agree, it could have been better and let us wait for other experts opinion before saying this is all bad.

  • Which transport tool to use: Solution Manager OR NWDI?

    We just wonder why SAP gives 2 ways to manage transports?
    Could some gurus compare them and give the recommendation: which one to go with?
    Thanks!!

    As answered by Peter now the new CTS+ is capable of handling both ABAP and JAVA objects.... You need to integrate the NWDI with CTS+ to manage transports of objects developed in NWDI..
    SAP recommends CTS+ over CMS...

  • CMS Positioning in the system landscape

    Hi mates,
    Currently, we have an environment XI DEV(SLD&CMS), QA(SLD), PRD(SLD) and Soln Mgr.
    CMS is on DEV box and uses the SLD on DEV. So far we've been on XI 3.0 SP17, everything has been working well.
    We are in the process of upgrading to PI 7.0 SP12 and re-evaluating positioning of CMS. We have a minor concern that, we sometimes have to bounce our DEV XI which will make CMS unavailable.
    Whats the best practice for CMS positioning when we have SLD on each XI environment? Placing it on Soln Mgr or QA XI? Our primary use of CMS is for XI transports. We are not really sure of the robustness & advanatages of CTS + and think its early to go for it.
    Are there any documents talking abt positioning the CMS like we have for positioning SLD?
    I appreciate your inputs.
    thx

    Hi Praveen,
    The best pracitse is to have two SLDs one one DEV serving DEV and Q
    Other one on Production.
    Two SLDs should be synched when ever there is a change, SLD provides this option by manual download and import of deltas.. These changes are very rare, so can be part of basis activity.
    Also the adavantage of placing SLD on Production because Production mostly is Highly Available and SLD inherits thatr. SLD is one of crucial components for Production XI runtime and is advisable to keep on High Available environment.
    Also SLD is not a very big app to hinder the perfomance of production.
    I did this in all my implementations and works perfect.
    There OSS notes for further analysis if you want to try
    Thanks

  • CTS+ configuration for NWDI - Development configuration error

    Hi All,
    I really need some help on this. we are configuring CTS+ on Solution Manager system for NWDI, EP landscape (EPD, EPQ,EPP) and SLD system.
    we made EPD as development system and trying to use CM Services to configure the NWDI scenario SDA/SDC Deployment.
    I have created all NON-ABAP systems and created the CTSDEPLOY Http connections. I am getting the popup to configure the Development Configuration,"What is the User I have to use here and  of which system?" and what are the authorizations required to configure this.
    As soon as the popup comes, It is asking for the user ID and Password. I am entering Solution Manager (Admin user with all CMS actions also assigned) user then it is giving the following error on the screen. " Could not connect to SLD; contact your System Administrator: User SAPNWDI is not allowed to do this function "
    I have give the SLD url correctly, and the admin user for SLD and Password. I have cross checked the user for password, every thing is fine.
    I really appreciate your help.
    Thanks,
    Ramu J.

    Hi Ramu,
    Pls answer me for below.
    specified SLQ as my SLD
    1.
    You said SLQ is you SLD, but You configuring CTS on solution manager. but solution manager has its own SLD.
    a. SMG solution manager SLD
    b. SLQ is also SLD
    If there is two sld then you should get error
    " Could not connect to SLD; contact your System Administrator: User SAPNWDI is not allowed to do this function "
    This is becuase you are giving the user which is present in SLQ SLD but CTS is checking the Solution manager SLD.
    For CTS you should have centralied SLD.
    2.
    Can you tell me one more thing, in CTSDEPLOY do I need to give the SMG host and port number or EPD's host and Port number?
    You have to specify the host and port in CTSDEPLOY of the system on which CTS contoller should work i.e EPD or SMG.
    To resolve your all this problem first of all make the SLD as central . i.e Make solution manager ( CLQ ) as SLD or SLD system in you landscape ( SLQ ) as SLD.
    don't keep two different SLD . If you keep Solman as its own SLD then CTS will search component from SMG SLD
    Pls follow the guide
    http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/90d3b550-b6fb-2910-0fa5-ece5d61fb9c3
    3.
    Could not connect to SLD; contact your System Administrator: User SAPNWDI is not allowed to do this function
    Can you tell us in which system this SAPNWDI user is present
    Check the SLD of of system in which SAPNWDI user  i present
    system is whether in SMG SLD or SLQ SLD
    If you are not clear with my above suggestion pls let me know.
    Thanks

  • CMS-Transport Studio: Link Transport Organizer is disabled

    Dear Experts!
    When I using Change Management Service- Transport Studio, I see that the link Transport Organizer is disabled with information
    " Change and Transport System not configured for the selected Track" , I already config CMS and TMS as the document guide.
    Please help me resolve this problem.
    Thanks all.

    Hello Thao
    The situation looks more like an configuration issue, very
    probably caused by the error concerning the name of the RFC destination
    (note 1003674): Please ensure that the destination is named
    'sap.com/com.sap.tc.di.CTSserver', with only capital 'CTS', but
    completedly small 'server' at the end.
    Thanks

  • CTS transport in Integration Directory

    Hello,
    We are running NW70 SP13 and have fully configured CTS+ as per the SAP documentation for SP13 specifically.
    In Integration Repository we can see the export option using CTS but in the Integration Directory for scenarios we do not see the "Transport with CTS mode" option...it is defaulted to File Transport and the field is not changeable.
    Any ideas?

    In the exchange profile make the following entry
    com.sap.aii.ib.client.properties: com.sap.aii.ibrep.core.cms.,com.sap.aii.ibdir.core.cms.
    for Integration Repository com.sap.aii.ibrep.core.cms.*
    for Integration Directory com.sap.aii.ibdir.core.cms.*
    Note:
    Do not replace existing values; add the new value to the existing values.
    Note:
    These settings specify that the CMS transport entries are transferred from the server to the web client front end.
    Refresh the Exchange profile parameter.
    You can refer to link below
    https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/f85ff411-0d01-0010-0096-ba14e5db6306
    Try now.

  • CTS - Don't Always Want Transportable Change Lists

    Is there a way to turn off automatic creation of the Transportable Change Lists?  At times, especially during the trial and error of development in the IB-Repository, I do not like having a bunch of transportable change lists created.  I end up deleting them manually since I always do initial transports of the entire SWCV after I am done.
    In the past I have turned off the change lists by SWCV when using CMS for transports (config exists in Administration section of Integration Builder).  Is there something like this for CTS?

    This change did not resolve my issue (and we bounced the system to make sure it took effect).
    If anyone knows of anything else, please chime in.
    When I make a change in IB-Repository, then go to the "Change Lists" tab and activate the change, a "Transportable" change list automatically generates.  I would like that turned off and I will only make transports when I am ready.
    Thanks
