Dependency of SWCV in XI-SLD

In XI, In Integration Repository, in a software component, i need to use a RFC structure(Imported Objects-RFCs), which is in a different software component,
so, i created a dependancy between the two software component in the SLD,
but i could not find the Baisis objects tab in my Software component...
I m also not sure which type of dependancy i need to apply....so i used all the three.........Build time, installation time and metadata request.....
what is the difference between them

Hi,
so, i created a dependancy between the two software component in the SLD,
why do u wnat to create dependency between two software components. cant u reimport RFC structure..
At build time describes the context of any build process, like the compilation of sources and the packing of archives. Requirements at build time list external resources needed for the build.
For example, a software component C1 needs software components C2 and C3 to be built. Here, the build of C1 does not work without C2 or C3 to be built first. On the other hand, the build of C1 does not need any other software component, except those required implicitly through C2 and C3.
At installation time describes the context of the installation process. This process may be the first installation or an upgrade to a newer version. Requirements at installation time list external resources needed for the installation. The installation includes a basic getting started.
For example, a software component C1 needs software components C3 and C4 to be installed. Here, the installation and basic usage of C1 does not work without C3 and C4 to be installed first. On the other hand, the installation of C1 does not require any other software component to be installed first, except those required implicitly through C3 and C4.
The getting started part of the installation is in the responsibility of the software owner. It might include just the start ability or the capability to use some kind of functionality. In each case, the at installation time requirements define the minimum preconditions for the installation.
At meta data request describes the context of a process requiring external meta data in an installed system. An example is the content of the XI repository containing the definitions of services and interfaces. The XI content is used by the software components implementing the services and interfaces (in ABAP or Java).

New SWCV in my SLD but invisibile in CMS

Hello all,
I've created a new SWCV in my XI 3.0 (SP 21), and i want to transport it to the quality system using th CMS.
But when i am in the landscape configurator of the CMS, in the tab "track data" and i try to add my new SWCV, i can't see it !! Is there any option to do or check ? It's my first time using CMS so i'm a little bit lost !
Thanks by advance,
JP

You need first select the object under this SWVC from your DEV machine and export them from both IR and ID. Then only you will be able to see them in CMS.

SWCV Dependency Not Showing in IR (Design)

I have made many SWCV dependencies in SLD in the past and always saw the namespaces and dependent design objects in Design (IR) under the Basis Object Node when I re-import the SWCV. In this partulcar SWCV, I am not seeing the dependency in IR (Design). I have searched documents and look at this sofware components several times but can't see any thing different from other SWCV.
Can anyone help?
Thanks,
Young

Check your GUIDs. Is the GUID of the SWCV you're refering to in the SLD the same as the object id in the integration repository?
It can be that the SWCV was created originally in another SLD, then the GUID does not match with your current SLD.
The solution is re-import the SWCV you're refering to (usually a library or something like that). In IR you'll see 2 SWCVs with the same name and version, then move everything from one swcv to the other (by renaming and copying). Finally delete the old swcv. So a lot of work...
And after that, check everywhere in IR and ID where the objects in the SWCV are used (e.g. interface determinations) and reselect the SWCV so that it refers to the current GUID.
You might also be able to export the swcv from the sld, manually change the guid and then re-import it. But I didn't try that because it would be too risky in a production system, in my opinion. And it might not work because the swcv gets a new GUID when importing, I don't know.
Best is not to mess with SLD's...

It's also an option to create a new version of your library swcv and use "Release Transfer" to copy the components across (the new version will have a correct guid).

Is SWCV required to be present in production SLD? Debate

I have DEV and QA XI systems pointing to one SLD and Production XI is on another SLD. I created Product and Software Component Version in DEV SLD and developed my scenario. After transporting to QA and subsequently to Production, the scenario runs fine despite the SWCV not being moved from DEV SLD to Prod SLD. So it appears there is no reference to the SWCV from SLD after the design is done the first time and transported completely (including the SWCV from Repository not SLD).
Is this how it is supposed to work and what is the need to maintain SWCV's in production SLD if they are not referenced at runtime.

I think this is possible if you scenario used business service, rather than using Business Systems maitained in SLD, not clear with your situation.
Your SWCVs in PRD are orphaned, I had similar experience that I have particular SWCV used for my mapping test, however, one day when i checked SLD, I found that the SWCV is missing from SLD.
Someone else has deleted it. but I did not come up complete scenario to test.
I also imported SWCV from one system to another one which does not have corresponding SWCV maitained in SLD, import is success, no error reported.
Nice to see you raise the question, I do not have definite answer either. To see what other expert respond.

Error in SWCV-Update SLD information

Hi Experts,
I have imported a XI content from marketplace and the same is imported successfully and i am able to create end to end
scenario.
But when it check SWCV->Tool->Update SLD information i am getting the following error.
Cannot update SLD information because there is no entry with key <604><sap.com><ECC-SE><01200615320200010995><ESA ECC-SE 604><509ac7568dff11dcbb6fc5790a115642><ExtSwc> in the SLD, or the ID 509ac756-8dff-11dc-bb6f-c5790a115642 already exists
Do I need to check if something wrong with PI system version and XI content not in sync.
I check in SLD the entry for 604 is not there.
My doubt is , in SLD -SWCV-XI content i am not able to see ECC SE 604 but 603 is present ;Does 603 comes by default durign
installation.
Do i need to upgrade my PI from 7.1 to 7.1 EHP1.
Regards,
Abhi

Hi Abhi,
Please check if the software component versions ESA ECC SE is installed, which should be the perquisite for Enterprise services implementation .
Generally the Xi contents are shipped with the sap releases so you might be having the XI content already in SLD which comes during installation in a similar way as we have SAP BASIS.
If you download the XI content , you just need to keep the .tpz file in the server under import directory or repository.
once you do a import from server , the component will appear and can be used for scenarios.
But before thinking to upgrade please do check with any other Xi content import and see if it is shown in the SLD
after import in ESR.

Srinivas

Creating SWCV in SLD for downloaded repository objects?

I want to download some SRM xi content from market place, but i guess on download i get the tpz files for repository,
my concern is, if i import these tpz files into the repository, what are the prerequisites?
1. do i need to have these SWCV already in the SLD?
2. how will i create the SWCV in the SLD?
please help..

Hello Sudeep,
To import .tpz file in XI you have to put that .tpz file in import directory of your integration server.
D:\usr\sap\PP7\SYS\global\xi\repository_server\import
Then from IR go into Tools->import
It will show all the .tpz ready to import, select the desired and then import.
Here PP7 is my client it may be XI3.0 also for XI3.0
When you will import .tpz file in IR you will find the software component in IR for that .tpz file.
But as of PI 7.0 the SWC will not be created in SLD but you have to create it.
IN PI 7.1 we have concept of autosynchronization between SLD & IR.
Not creating SWC in IR will not cause problem at Run time but you will be in trouble at Run Time.
Thanks

SRM SWCV not geting synched up in CMS from Central SLD

Hi,
We set up SRM SWCV in Central SLD and using that in Dev system.
We want to transport this SWCV from Dev to QA using CMS.When we are trying to do this transport we are getting error and the reason is there is no entry of SRM stuff in CMS.
Our CMS is pointing to Central SLD and when we are trying to Update CMS it is pulling all other SWCV s from Central SLD except SRM stuff..So we couldn't add SRM SWCV in CMS...
So,please let us know what we are doing wrong...or Should we approach differently to load SRM content in QA systems..
Thanks in advance
Venu

Yes Venu,
You need to import SRM Content into QA syste.
DO NOT TRANSPORT CONTENTS....!
Thanks

Unable to import the SWCV fom the central sld ?

Hi Guys,
I have connfigured xi for central sld
and when i try to import the swcv from central sld i am getting the message as unable to read the data from the <hostname> : port number
I have given the following in the exchange profile
com.sap.aii.connect.cr.name -- central sld host name
com.sap.aii.connect.directory.name -- sap xi host name
can anybody tell me the values for the above parameters and any help would be really appreciated
LCRSAPRFC and SAPSLDAPI are on the xi server and works fine.
Thanks,
Srini

Hi Sridhar,
LCRSAPRFC - poinitng to SAP XI server Gatewayhost and Gateway service -- works fine
SAPSLDAPI - pointing to SOLMANGR Gatewayhost and Gateway service -- works fine
I am maintaining the Hostname of the solmagr in SLDAPICUST. can you explain little bit more on the url in sldapicust.
Do you mean i need to give http://hostname:port/sld instaed of just the host name ?
Thanks,
Srini

Namespaces dissappeared under SWCV

Hi,
In my ESR of XI dev (only), for two SWCV among 5, I have no more the Namespaces in the tree (left side). They completely disappeared !
I continue to see them if I open the SWCV (right side) or by doing a search. But why I cannot see them in the tree ?
It seems this effect arrived after using the button "Tools > Update SLD Information" of one of these two SWCV (both are link by a usage-dependency).
I checked the SLD of XI dev and XI Quality, and SWCV have the same definiation and usage-dependencies.
Any idea ?
Regards
Mickael
P.S: PI 7.11 SP06.

hi,
I solved this issue.
It seems it was like a conflict between "Underlying SWCV" of my SWCV (in ESR) and the usage-dependency defined in SLD: my SWCV was linked to another SWCV. And this last one is itself link to another SWCV and after that again to my SWCV... So something like SWCV -> SWCV1 -> SWCV2 -> SWCV (the same at the beginning).
My solution: by waiting to re-modelize (correctly) the SWCV dependencies, I kept the SLD definition and I deleted the entry under "Underlying SWCV" in SWCV (tab "details")... and now the namespaces of this SWCV are reappeared...
See [help sap|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nwpi711/helpdata/en/44/63977c40b54ddfe10000000a1553f7/frameset.htm].

Integration Process of abstract interfaces of diff SWCV's

Hey all,
I am trying to create an integration process of a sender and receiver abstract interfaces of different SWCVs. If I create the integration process in one of the SWCV, I am not able to select the other interface in the receive step.Is it a necessary criteria to have the both sender and receiver abstract interfaces to be in the same SWCV? Can they not be in different SWCV?
-AR

Hi Antonio,
CLEAR SLD CACHE is not enough. After your SWCV update in SLD, you need to import again your SWVC inside IR.
All your objects will be NOT deleted. Thus don't worry about your Data Type, Mappings, BPM, etc...
I have already done such an import (after adding a usage-depency), I have never lose an object.
If you are some doubt, you can Export all your namespaces in a file (cf. Tools > Export). Thus you will be able to Import all your namespaces if something will be wrong (but it will be not the case!). Ask to your admin to get this file in order to NOT send it to your production system...

Mass deletion of SWCV in ID ?

Hi,
I know how to delete one by one a SWCV in the ID, but is there a mean to do a mass deletion of SWCV in ID ?
I explain my pb: a guy import ALL SWCV of the SLD into ID... Thus we have ours but among hundreds of SAP that we don't use....
Funy game !
Regards.
Mickael

Hi PT,
In fact, I already deleted one by one all "non-wanted" SWCV in the IR of our PI DEV environment.
It was not really an amazing game... but we did it ! and loose many many many time...
And now, I see that it's the same in our QUA envrionment :-(((
and I presume it will be the same for our pre-prod and then PROD environment... I hope no, but it certainly the same guy who made the same error (several times!).
So I try to find a quick easy solution.

How to get the new dependency SCA's related to 7.4 version with out upgrading NWDI server

Hi
We are in process of upgrading the custom webdynpro and portal components to SAP Portal 7.4.
I saw in some discussions that, we don't need to upgrade NWDI , we need to install new JDK version(1.6) to map that jdk to the new track for migrating the custom component to new track.
But i have questions related to NWDI track dependency files.
When i create new track to support 7.4 components need to be available in the respective track.
we have central SLD and we create all the product and custom software components in that SLD(7.01) itself , To create the custom software component in SLD , i add required dependency files. once the software component is ready, when i create the track in nwdi system i will be able to fetch the custom software component in nwdi system by click on cms update.
But now i need following new new dependency software component versions in SLD related to 7.4 for creating new software component to those dependency's to support the new track in NWDI.
EP_BUILDT
SAP-JEE
SAP_BUILDT
SAP_JTECHS
But my SLD server version is : 7.01 version.
so do i need to upgrade the SLD server to 7.4 get the latest dependent SCA's or just need import new SLD content in SLD server to add new custom software component to create?
kindly advice how to get the new software components in SLD without upgrading the NWDI & SLD system to 7.4
Thanks

Jun,
Thanks for the reply.
But i am not able to find the following two SCA's related to 7.4 version. I am able to find the rest of the SCA's. I able to see only 7.02 version related to following dependency files.
SAP-JEE
SAP_JTECHS
SAP-EU (CA EU) ( having only 7.01, 7.02, 7.10, 7.11 and 7.20) related to Guided procedures.
Did they changed any naming conventions related to these software components? if so what are new software compnents names to use
Please clarify.
Thanks
Vijay

SWCV not seen in ABAP Proxy

We have created some SWCVs. But some can be seen whereas some others cannot be seen!
The source and target systems are the same and all are JDBC sender to ABAP proxy receiver scenarios to the same client of ECC.
Only the products are different.
Can someone please help?
Thanks

Hi,
While dealing with the ABAp Proxies we have to activate the Settings in SAP R/3 System
How do you activate ABAP Proxies?
And also make sure that you have activated the newly created SWCV and do SLD Cache and SXI_Cache

Export/Import between two separate SLD's

Hello,
We're facing the next issue. We want to move some single (custom created) Products with some single Software component versions (SWCVS) from 1 SLD (SLD1) to another SLD (SLD2) that are fysically separated. We do not want to create an export of the full CIM content of SLD1. Anybody experience with this creating exports of single products and single SWCVS. What should be the order importing these in the target SLD (SLD2).
As we are running on SLD 7.00 we also created Software units. Still the aim of these units is not completely clear to me and documentation on this is quite poor. How should we deal with production state? At what moment in a development cycle should the state be changed??
Is it possible to also export import these software unit definitions from SLD1 to SLD2?
Thanks for your comments!!
Regards,
Emile

HI,
I am not sure, how it works with software unit definitions.
This guide may help you-

So I think there may be a manual intervention required here..

Problem in creating BS in SLD

Hi all,
while I am recreating the Business System in SLD it is giving error as follows.
Error when creating business system: CIM_ERR_ALREADY_EXISTS: Instance already exists: SAP_LogicalALESystem.CreationClassName="SAP_LogicalALESystem",Name="SENDER.SystemName.100.SystemName.ES.SystemLicenseNumber.SystemHome.netweaver"
how can solve this problem.

Hi,
This basically happens when the business system by the same name exists previosly in the lanscape.And currently not availiable.
To sort out this problem
1) Check if the business system by same name is already existing
2) Then clear the SLD cache
3) If it still doesn't work the restart the Integration builsder or Java instance.
4) It also depends on the type of SLD you are accesing or the XI server is connected with.
Hope this might sort out your problem
