Export/Import Server Configuration

Hi,
I have multiple physical servers to configure that will have
the same MX 7 configuration settings. Is there a way to export and
then import these settings so I don't have manually complete each
one? For example, I'm looking to replicate datasources,
collections, scheduled tasks, cfx tags, client vars etc. Please
advise. Thanks!

You can either use the ear/war export & import utilities
of the CF
administrator or you can manually copy/merge the appropriate
neo_xxxx.xml files from one system to another.

    XI CORP
BS_DSP060          BS_QSP060               BS_SIF060
The problem is that in each enviroment each Business system has diferent name. so that´s my problem, how could I make

Export/import preferences configurations?

greetings,
back in the olden days, before OSX, i used to save my systems configurations. for example, os9 and before, i could save my locations, printers, etc... i have both a desktop and a macbook pro, and at home a powerbook and a new MBPro and sometimes need to copy configurations between the computers. or on rare occasions, i've done a complete new install to avoid bugs between major os upgrades...
i've been looking for the ability to export some of my systems settings in OSX, but haven't seen a good way to do this... so i sometimes have to manually copy the configuration info from one computer to another. this would include network settings, printers, even things in apple mail prefs (yes i'll try another forum for that one)... but this is obviously a royal pain...
i did find an export option for network. but none for printers. the network pref export is grayed out. the system help states how to export, but doesn't give any clues about why the export option would be grayed out...
does anyone have any suggestions about either
1- this network export issue or
2- if there is any ability to export other preferences?
thanks for any suggestions-
jeffery

oh... that leaves a bit to be desired... too bad they haven't fully implement the ability to save/export all the configurations... that would be a helpful capability... think of all the "IT" departments, that would use such an options besides individual users...
you have a "noWhere" config too, presumably for a low power mode to conserve battery life... i'd guess a lot of laptop owners have a similar config... it might be a help if apple created a default "noNetwork" config since macbooks are such a large part of their base...
seems like a good time for some feedback...
thanks for the info-
jeffery

Export Server Configuration - MX6

I need step-by-step instruction on how to export configuration out of CF MX6 STANDARD edition. I've looked a the following link but couldn't locate topic for this information. http://help.adobe.com/en_US/ColdFusion/9.0/CFMLRef/index.html
Thanks in advance

Rick, the link you gave was to the CFML Reference. That won't help you at all in exporting server configurations.
Instead, that's a feature of the CF Admin, and so you'd want to look at the "Configuring and Administering CF" manual, and of course you'd want it for CF 6, not CF9. They're offered at http://www.adobe.com/support/documentation/en/coldfusion/documentation.html. Unfortunately, while the links to the PDFs there work, the links to the HTML versions do not, and sadly it can't even be found via the good ole "internet wayback machine":
But regardless, you'll face a different annoyance even if you find the docs, in that you say you're running CF Standard. That license of CF does not provide a way to export CF Admin settings. That's only an Enterprise feature, found in the Packaging & Deployment option on the left nav bar, for "ColdFusion Archives", which you won't even see in CF Standard.
But here's a trick, which if this is a production machine you should only do at an off hour, when you can stop your web site. If you remove your CF license key (from the "system information" page in the CF Admin), that will revert CF to "Developer" mode, which is the full Enterprise functionality--but limited to allowing only up to 3 IP addresses to connect to CF. That's why you need to not only do this at an off hour, but it would be best if you could stop your web sites, or at least all but that which you need to get to the CF Admin.
Then you can export the settings, and import them into another Enterprise or Developer edition of CF.
As for step-by-step instructions for the process of creating the archives (a car file), there are many out on the web, such as:
http://www.iknowkungfoo.com/blog/index.cfm/2008/4/5/Yo-Adrian-How-do-I-backup-my-ColdFusio n-Admin-settings
http://www.quackit.com/coldfusion/coldfusion_archive_and_deploy.cfm
or a simplified checklist at:
http://www.code-complete.com/code/index.php?/archives/21-Using-Coldfusion-Archives-to-migr ate-datasources.html
Hope that helps.

UCM configuration export / import

Hi,
I have heard that UCM - Content server has some functionality which allows to export current configuration with possibility to import this configuration when UCM is reinstalled. Could somebody give me some hints or some advice where to find some documentation / how to for doing it?
Thanks

Hi,
I have followed the instructions in the manual. Exporting of configuration works fine. I have downloaded bundle and uploaded on the other server and tried to import this bundle. But I am getting error:

The only known difference between my 2 UCM servers is that one I want to import the config on is 2-node cluster and the first one (from which I exported the bundle) is single machine. But I think this should not be a problem, should it?

Export/import login server and user grup security

Hi,
I followed the instructions to export Login server, user group
security using the ssoexp.csh, secexp.csh. Then I imported the
login server, and user group security using the ssoimp.csh,
secimp.csh .
I then logged into Portal and check the users, all the users are
imported properly. However, I didn't see any group that are
supposed to be imported. Do I missing anything?
The syntax to run the secimp is as follows:
secimp.csh -s portal30 -p portal30 -o portal30 -m reuse -d
sec.dmp -c target_database
The import finished w/o error. How can I see the groups in the
new portal instance that I tried to import objects in?
I noticed that the wwsec_group$ in the source area is over 3000,
and in the target the count is only 10, which is the number of
group I have before the import. But during the export, I don't
see the wwsec_group$ table being exported, is that the problem?
P.S. versions are: 9iAS 1.0.2, portal version 3.0.9.8 on solaris.
Thanks;
Kelly.

This question is best suited to the Oracle9iAS SSO and Portal Security forum.
Thanks

Export and Import of Configuration Data

Hi All,
I have created a number of custom properties, structures, groups, renderers, layout sets etc and would like to move them from Dev to Test system.
I have found the following in the help doco:
"Export and Import of Configuration Data"
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/e1/029c414c79b25fe10000000a1550b0/content.htm
However I am unable to see its functionality in our portal systems (namely the Actions->Export and Actions->Import functions).
Our version of Portal is: 6.0.9.6.0
KM: 6.0.9.3.0 (NW04 SPS09 Patch3)
Therefore we should be able to see it? no?
Are there any special settings to see these buttons?
Cheers,
Vic

Thanks for your replies.
OK, so in otherwords, it is not available in SP09 and only in SP12+.
So, to "transport" this information I will have to manually reapply thes settings in the Test system!

Configuration of the Import Manager in order to use the Import Server

Hi all,
Firstly thanks a lot for all. The question is: I need to set all the properties neccesary to use the Import Server, so would be very positive to know how to set all the default import action in the import manager. when I try to make that all default import action under the Records Option in the main menu are disable.
Can someone help me with that?.
Thanks in Advance and Best Regards.

Hi Devashish Bharti
All that you have told is configured, instead of this configuration, the default import action: none/none;single/exact is disable in the "Records" main menu. Do you know what happen?
Best Regards.

Is it possible to import and export Config Toll Configuration from one sys

Hi All,
Is it possible to import and export Config Toll Configuration from one system to Another system (QUS/PRD), for especific service.
Kindly let me know the pro and corn of it and step by step process
Thanks alot for your time.
Thanks
AB

Yes...It is certainly possible but then you would need to bring OS level j2ee filestructure as well and there are lots of changes at OS level in *.properties file and then at configtool level changes related to hostname, system numbers and port numbers etc.
This is not much difficult but not impossible also if you do it very carefully. Please note that SAP DOES NOT SUPPORT THIS METHOD.
alternatively, you can use sapinst to export-import j2ee filesystem from source to target which inturn would require to do configtool export/import and then changes at configtool level.
Do let us know your requirement so that we cud help you in case you are facing any issues.
cheers !!!

How to export/import configuration

I've just got myself a shiny new SSD as a secondary internal drive and I've decided to start afresh and install everything (kinda) from scratch. I've made the SSD the new boot drive and I have the old internal HD there with everything on it still.
I just can't work out how to copy all the (numerous) websites and settings across to Server on the new drive though?
Surely there should be some sort of export/import system?
Any help massively appreciated.

I was searching up and down for this functionality myself. It's not available from the GUI (shame!)
Use the command line:
sudo serveradmin settings all > outfile.txt
Instead of all you can also specify a specific service. Importing the settings into the new machine is done in a similar way. Look for examples in the man page for serveradmin.
Hope this helps

Steps to configure Import Server and Syndication server

Hi,
Can some one help me to work on Import Server and Syndication server. I know there are few forums availabe on this topic but they are not very basic. I need to know the basic step(From installation to automatic transfer of data.) to work on Import <b>Serve</b>r and Syndication <b>Server</b>.

Hi Ron,
The MDM Import Server is a background process (service), which separates the core processing of master data imports from the front-end processing. MDM Import Server allows you to load master data records periodically from various
client systems to various MDM Servers and repositories based on the port concept.
Once the data is delivered by SAP XI on a specific port, it will automatically get picked within a configurable time interval and queued up for import processing.
MDM Import Server creates log files of the entire load process, which are stored
in the port folder Log and can be displayed in MDM Console.
If an error occurs in the automated import, the MDM Import Server stops and
drops the XML in the Exception folder of the port. You can import the XML
interactively using the MDM Import Manager and correct the error (for example
complete the import map).
Hope this might help....
thanks
Alexander
P.S. Kindly reward the points, if found helpful.

Export Server Configuration

Hi all,
is there a possibility to export a complete server configuration (SAP WAS Java 6.40 SP 15) which contains all configured Destinations, Datasources (and JDBC-driver), SLD Data Supplier, UME-LDAP and so on.
We want to define standard server configuration and roll it out to all developers to avoid error-prone configuration at the workplaces.
Thanks for help

Regrards

Dear Pavan
I tried last night as you said i made new client as 300 in ides and copy user profile to that
when i tried to configure stms by setting CTC =1 when i configure transport routes i don't find any client number
to provide source and target client
kindly send some screen shots if u have that would great support

Regarding Distribution Monitor for export/import

Hi,
We are planning to migrate the 1.2TB of database from Oracle 10.2g to MaxDB7.7 . We are currently testing the database migration on test system for 1.2TB of data. First we tried with just simple export/import i.e. without distribution monitor we were able to export the database in 16hrs but import was running for more than 88hrs so we aborted the import process. And later we found that we can use distribution monitor and distribute the export/import load on multiple systems so that import will get complete within resonable time. We used 2 application server for export /import but export completed within 14hrs but here again import was running more than 80hrs so we aborted the import process. We also done table splitting for big tables but no luck. And 8 parallel process was running on each servers i.e. one CI and 2 App servers. We followed the document DistributionMonitorUserGuide from SAP. I observerd that on central system CPU and Memory was utilizing above 94%. But on 2 application server which we added on that servers the CPU and Memory utilization was very low i.e. 10%. Please find the system configuration as below,
Central Instance - 8CPU (550Mhz) 32GB RAM
App Server1 - 8CPU (550Mhz) 16GB RAM
App Server2 - 8CPU (550Mhz) 16GB RAM
And also when i used top unix command on APP servers i was able to see only one R3load process to be in run state and all other 7 R3load process was in sleep state. But on central instance all 8 R3load process was in run state. I think as on APP servers all the 8 R3load process was not running add a time that could be the reason for very slow import.
Please can someone let me know how to improve the import time. And also if someone has done the database migration from Oracle 10.2g to MaxDB if they can tell how they had done the database migration will be helpful. And also if any specific document availble for database migration from Oracle to MaxDB will be helpful.
Thanks,
Narendra

R3load connects directly to the database and loads the data. The quesiton is here: how is your database configured (in sense of caches and memory)?
> And also if someone has done the database migration from Oracle 10.2g to MaxDB if they can tell how they had done the database migration will be helpful. And also if any specific document availble for database migration from Oracle to MaxDB will be helpful.
There are no such documents available since the process of migration to another database is called "heterogeneous system copy". This process requires a certified migration consultant ot be on-site to do/assist the migraiton. Those consultants are trained specially for certain databases and know tips and tricks how to improve the migration time.
See
http://service.sap.com/osdbmigration

For MaxDB there's a special service available, see
