GRC 10.0 Upgrade & Functionality - 4 Questions

Hi Forum,
We are currently evaluating upgrading to GRC 10.0 from 5.3 and also start using SPM. Currently, we only use RAR. Can you guys help me with following 4 questions?
1. We have a number of different firefighter roles used by different teams and approved by different approvers. Can we have separate requester and approver lists for different firefighter accounts in GRC 10.0 SPM?
2. Do we have to implement GRC 10.0 Portals for SPM approval workflow?
3. We have license for all GRC modules. Does this also include Continuous Transaction Monitoring with Oversight or is a separate license required for this?
4. Does GRC 10.0 support automatic archiving of AC-RAR SoD reports? - When I start a weekly background job, can it be automatically archived into an archive folder of my desigantion?
Thanks so much for your input.
Joerg

hi Joerg
1.Yes, you can have different approvers per firefighter ID and have the requestors assigned to different ones as well.
2.You do not need to install portal but you will need to facilitate some access to the front end components through activating the NWBC Netweaver Business client or using a web browser to view the internet facing services in SICF.
3. I don't believe that your GRC license automatically entitles you to the Oversight product suite as they are still separately marketed, however the GRC Process Controls and Risk Management modules can be included if you have a full enterprise GRC license from SAP.
4. You could certainly manage to archive the reports using standard SAP ABAP functionality (SARA). However, If you mean the standard Batch risk Analysis, then I think you'll find that the offline content is overwritten with the latest and only the summary data is retained in the historical data tables for trend analysis. From an audit perspective, historical detailed data is not partuicularly useful since they are more interested in current exposure. Auto archiving of the SPM logs is available as standard.

Simon

  • Help with simple OS upgrade and backup questions for a dumb old previous PC user...?

    Ok...have mercy on me, please...
    I am not completely dumb, I know typical board etiquette, and I have searched for various answers (and found many)...but I just want to confirm my personal "research" and get all of this clear up before I proceed with this insanity.  I know I could probably search more, but this is taking hours, because of all my various questions, one leads to 10 more...
    I have an iMac with Mac OS X Version 10.5.8 (which, though not mentioned anywhere?...is apparently "Leopard", right?  Told you I was dumb...)
    Processor:  3.06 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
    Memory: 2 GB 800 MHz DDR2 SDRAM
    My main goal:  install an app that was in the Mac App store.
    However, with Leopard, I can't access the Mac App store with Leopard, apparently. 
    I click on the Mac App store, and up pops up a Lion advertisement...telling me I should upgrade.  Ok, fine...probably a good idea, anyway...
    But how do you upgrade to Lion?  Apparently through the Mac App store!
    The web-redirects on the Apple site are amusing...taking me on an endless cycle...purchase Lion in the app store...click..."you need to upgrade to Lion"...OK...click..."you need Lion at the app store"...OK...click..."you need to upgrade to Lion to get to the app store"....etc.
    OK...fine...google searches...ahh, I need to upgrade to Snow Leopard first, apparently!  Yes?
    (Maybe the Apple redirects should detect that I have Leopard, and direct me to a screen that explains that I must upgrade to Snow Leopard...and then Lion!  Do you hear that, Apple?  Thanks.)
    Anyway...so here's my plan:
    1) Upgrade to Snow Leopard
    2) Access the Mac app store
    3) Upgrade to Lion
    Question A:  With my iMac (specs above), is it really advisable for me to do this?  Can my computer really handle Lion?  It seems I barely meet the minimum with my intel core 2 Duo and 2 GB ram...yes?  Is this a dumb idea, even if "OK"?  I know that "minimum requirements" on a PC often meant:  "Well, it will work...but it will be slower than a snail and crash if you run 5 programs at the same time" (which I usually do...)  I don't want to upgrade if the "minimum" is really not enough. 
    Question B:  If the answer to A is "not a good idea", then  do I just need a new computer (i.e. better processor)?  Or do I need more Ram?  And can I add Ram to this computer, and is it relatively easy?  I have added Ram to PCs tons of times, and you always have to determine type of Ram for your board, make sure they "match", or whatever, and then open up the machine and install.  Kind of a pain, but once I have the "right" type of Ram, opening the CPU and installing is within my abilities.  Will it be harder for a Mac?

    Next:
    When upgrading an OS on a Windows, you pretty much format the harddrive and start all over.  Back in the day I was a PC user, there wasn't really a "great" way to back up programs and files, so this was a nightmare.  You could NOT just back-up software.  You typically had to re-purchase and install it all from scratch.  Is this the same with Macs?  Furthermore, personal files were scattered all over the hard-drive for the individual software...so trying to back all that up to get it back on the new system = nightmare!  I hate PCs.
    Anyway...so, my iMac has Time Machine.  I am pretty ignorant about this, and based on my previous PC backup program nightmares, I have a distrust for it...and don't really understand how it works.  But in any event, my external drive crashed a few months ago, and I haven't replaced it, yet.  So, I am replacing it soon and will get Time Machine back up and running...setting it up again, etc...leading to question C...
    Question C: When upgrading from Leopard to Snow Leopard to Lion, what is the best way to ensure I keep all my programs and files.  My wife and I both access the computer, so two user accounts.  Does Time Machine really do a good job backing up everything and all things?  Is it just a matter of upgrade to Snow Leopard...then immediately to Lion...and then some sort of "Restore" from Time Machine?  Anything for me to "watch out for"...or to do when I buy a new external hard-drive and setup up Time Machine for the first time on it, in order to make this work well?  Will I have to re-install all the various applications I have installed on this thing?  (like with PCs?)
    Thanks for any sincere help.

    Apple has discontinued support for 10.5, it's a plaque of our platform that Apple only supports the last two operating systems in circulation.
    Where as on Windows you can run the same OS version for 10 years and get updates free (if not stolen), on a Mac we get one year, two tops now and if you don't upgrade and break all your third party software and hardware drivers in the process, then your denied security updates.
    On top of that, the OS X upgrades tend to break your older hardware too, or slow it down so much that it drives you to want to buy newer hardware.
    It's funny Apple places the AppStore on your OS X version along with iTunes and Safari updates, but then doens't supply necessary security updates, your machine may be compromised and here you enter vital credit card info, banking  etc. thinking you have a secure machine.
    My advice, since that's a 10.5 era Mac, is to upgrade to 10.6.3 via this disk, then use Software Update until clear. You'll get security updates and your present installed 10.5 software will work in 10.6 using Rosetta.
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A
    Rosetta is not avaialble in 10.7 so it could be a lot of your software will no longer function
    http://roaringapps.com/apps:table
    I don't see the sense in you buying all new software for a machine that's at it's end of life stage.
    You can buy software in the AppStore with 10.6.
    Question A:  With my iMac (specs above), is it really advisable for me to do this?  Can my computer really handle Lion?  It seems I barely meet the minimum with my intel core 2 Duo and 2 GB ram...yes?
    You will need to buy 4GB of RAM to run Lion well, the 2GB is just a bare minimum, and your processor is a bit dated.
    Lion 10.7 is certainly slower than Snow Leopard 10.6, in fact so many wanted to go back to Snow Leopard and one of the resons was Lion was slow.
    So I wrote a User Tip, here, but the Tips were implemented only recently.

    RAM is easy, you can buy it at Otherworld Computing or Crucial.com and install it yourself, there is a little door under the monitor.

    Mac'soperaing system is seperate, it can be replaced or upgraded indepentantly of programs or user accounts on the machine.
    There are some programs that install a kernel extension file at boot into OS X, those get knocked out, but those can be replaced with a new install of the software.
    You should always backup your users files as those can't be repalced.
     Most commonly used backup methods explained
    Question C: When upgrading from Leopard to Snow Leopard to Lion, what is the best way to ensure I keep all my programs and files.
    OS X upgrades dont' affect User accounts but they can have a affect on programs installed, which most of your 10.5 programs likely will no longer work in 10.7
    However they will (with a slight update) work in 10.6 just like before.
    You need to backup regardless, I suggest a manual backup of users files to a storage drive, a 10.5 clone on another drive, the your ready to upgrade to 10.6
    10.5 to 10.6 upgrade is rather painless, also 10.6 gives accelerated video drivers, so your machine will appear faster.
    However once you install 10.7, you will slow down.
    Does Time Machine really do a good job backing up everything and all things? 
    No, you shouldn't rely upon TM, have a multiple backup stragedy, TM files are hard to access directly.
    Is it just a matter of upgrade to Snow Leopard...then immediately to Lion...and then some sort of "Restore" from Time Machine?
    No need to restore, OS X upgrades and leaves everything else in place, just some programs (with 10.6) or a lot (with 10.7) when you try to launch them they will fail.
    Also when you connect TM it will do a substancial change to reflect the new boot drive.
    If you were using TM as a "storage drive" thinking you can use the archived versions later, that wil change upon the new OS X  upgrade.
    But in any event, my external drive crashed a few months ago, and I haven't replaced it, yet.  So, I am replacing it soon and will get Time Machine back up and running...setting it up again, etc...leading to question C..
    You need not only TM drive, but a bootable clone and user files on a storage drive.
     Most commonly used backup methods explained
    Will I have to re-install all the various applications I have installed on this thing?  (like with PCs?)
    No, depending upon what OS X version you stop at depends how many programs no longer work.
    You will have to buy a lot of new or upgrade versions with 10.7, not so with 10.6 only updates mostly because of Rosetta on 10.6 and not on 10.7
    My opinion, since that machine is a bit dated, is to upgrade to 10.6, Software update to 10.6.8, and stay there.
    Later on 10.8 is being released after this summer, you may want to consider getting a new machine with 10.8 a few months later to ensure all the bugs are worked out of it.
    Your not a comptuer savvy person, you like most Apple users expect your machine to "just work" I think going to 10.7 will be a bad experience for you.
    10.6.8 will server your needs until 10.8 is released and on new hardware where Apple will hold your hand for free for three months, 3 years with AppleCare.
    Your not a "OS X upgrader type of a person" and Apple needs to get of thier collective assets and pay better attention to it's most common users.

  • What a basis admin can help with GRC except install/upgrade?

    Our basis team installs and upgrades GRC.
    However when coming to the support for GRC, we are not sure where to draw the border line between
    basis team and security team.
    What is the responsibility of basis team in GRC area?
    Thanks  for your help.

    Hi Jennifer,
    There is no real clear cut answer for this! Where do you draw the line for the other ERP systems?
    It really depends on your own support structure and the skills of the individuals. I would ask your Application Support Mgr to confirm / define the remit with those involved.
    Having said that, I would suggest that the technical landscape management and connectors would lend itself to the basis / netweaver analysts role. You may also want them to deal with the assignment of the webservices and the connectivity of the components to each other.
    The functional configuration would tend to lend itself to the security team though as I expect that they would be more business focussed and be able to design the way in which the tools should be used by the business.
    I hope this helps?

  • GRC 5.3 upgrade

    Hi,
    We are currently in Access Enforcer version 5.2 and we want to upgrade to version 5.3.
    I would like to know what happens to the currently pending Access Enforcer requests? We want to retain the requests. Is it sufficient to backup the database before the upgrade?
    Please let me know if you need any further details.
    Many Thanks,
    Aravindan
    Edited by: Frank Koehntopp on Feb 19, 2012 6:47 PM - Moved to correct forum

    Hello,
    As Mr Frank said, you'll find the upgrade guide under: http://service.sap.com/instguides -> SAP BusinessObjects -> SAP BusinessObjects Governance, Risk, Compliance (GRC) -> Access Control -> SAP GRC Access Control 5.3.
    As per the guide( and only for Access Enforcer) you have to backup:
    - All database tables with the prefix VIRSA_AE or VT_AE
    - All the installation files you used when you originally installed your current version of Access
    Enforcer
    - Your existing data
    Anyway, I think that the best option is perform a full system backup.
    For AE 5.2 you have to undeploy:
    AEUME.sda
    AEEAR.ear
    AEWorkFlowWSEAR.ear (If Exists)
    AEEAR4WS.ear (If Exists)
    AEDictionary.sda (If Exists)
    I don't know specific for 5.2, but for 5.3 I used to undeploy as per note:
    SAP Note 1174625 - Access Control 5.3 Java Support Pack Installation
    And later, deploy the new support packages.
    In this case, the components:
    - sap.com/grc/ccxsysdb
    - sap.com/grc/aedict
    - sap.com/grc/redictionary
    - sap.com/grc/ffdb
    Are not undeployed, and the request and all your information remains. I mean, I haven't lost any data with this procedure.
    I've always wondered (and I've discussed this in this forums) if this procedure is really needed. I mean, if it's necessary to undeploy to install new support packages for 5.3 itself (for example from 5.3 SP10 to 5.3 SP17, is it necessary to undeploy??).
    All sap notes I've read pointed me to say "YES, you have to undeploy", but as I said, I've discussed it here and a lot of customers just install the new SPs with JSPM and this seems to be the "natural" approach.
    @Frank:  could you clarify on this??
    @Aravindan: Excuse me for the answer, it was probably too long for your simple question.
    Cheers,
    Diego.

  • Upgrading SQL Server Questions

    Hi everyone.
    I've never upgraded SQL Server before, so I'm quite nervous (Maybe unnecessarily so?)...
    When I started development of the software we use here, another product required that we use SQL Server 2000.  That is no longer the case or an issue, so I wanted to upgrade SQL Server to a current version (That supports Windows Server 2003).  From
    my research, it looks like I would be able to upgrade to SQL Server 2008.
    I do have a few concerns though.
    1) Will my database function the same as it currently does?  Will my SQL Statements still work the same?  I haven't read anywhere where people were complaining of breaking changes, but I wanted to ask.  I would of course backup the database,
    but this database gets a lot of use, so I want to reduce headaches as best I can.
    2) How do I upgrade SQL Server?  I realize of course that this will be viewed as a ridiculously stupid question, but I genuinely have no idea and certainly don't want to botch that...
    3) Will this automatically upgrade all databases on the current server?
    4) Will I need to make any changes within my application, or will the upgrade be seamless from that aspect?
    5) Would I need to purchase anything for the upgrade?  I already have SQL Server as part of Visual Studio 2013...
    I really appreciate the help.

    Hello,
    1. In most cases normal upgrade works fine but if you are using a feature in you application that is not present in 2008 code might function differently.So testing is your best bet.In you case side by side upgrade would be best one
     2. Obtain new windows box and install SQL server 2008 on it.Migrate database from sql server 2000 to 2008 thorugh backup restore mechanism.Migrate logins and jobs as well by scripting it out and running it on 2008.RK on jobs and create script
    How to transfer logins
    Now test you application functionalities against this new database.See all works as expected if not change code accordingly.After you are confirmed that no app issue is there take full and trn saction log backup and restore it on 2008 and make it live
    dont decomission old 2000 let it be ther for 15 -20 days just in case.
    3. After you restore 2000 database backup on 2008 it will upgrade database automatically.You just need to change compatibility level to 100.
    alter database db_name set compatibility_level =100
    after this rebuild indexes and update stats for all tables and all databases.
    4. depends on issue if you face any speak to developer
    5 You need to have full version of SQL server installable.If you are planning to use express you can download from net.For standard /enterprise you need to have valid license
    Edit: As Olaf mentioned you need to run upgrade advisor as well ,even though it is required for inplace upgrade but that would be helpful, Still I would suggest for side by side approach
    Please mark this reply as the answer or vote as helpful, as appropriate, to make it useful for other readers

  • Yosemite upgrade: function keys no longer work, no keyboard lights and have to sign in twice after sleep mode.  Anybody else having these problems?

    Hi,
    Since I did the Yosemite 'upgrade' last week I have been having problems with my MacBook Pro that never happened before.  The most frustrating problems involve my keyboard which doesn't light up (checked my settings and they are correct) and the top row of function keys don't do anything so I can't adjust the volume, brightness, etc.  Then if my screen goes into sleep mode, when I wake it back up I have to sign back in twice - I never had to sign in at all after sleep mode before.
    I'm finding that in order to get it working properly I am having to completely shut down and start up again but when the keyboard problems are happening I can't get anything on the apple dropdown to work either (i.e. shut down, restart, etc) so I can only shut down by pressing and holding the on/off button.
    I've never had problems with my Macbook before and feel like Apple have completely ruined it in one update!  I've had a look through other posts on here but can't find anybody else having these problems so I would be really grateful if anyone could help me and offer me some advice on how to sort it out.
    Thanks!

  • Windows 8.1 official offline upgrade package & GPO question related to Metro & UAC

    Hello!
    I am testing pre-deployment of Windows 8.1 in our 2008R2 domain. So far only my workstation is upgraded to win8x64 (from win7x64) and I am assessing if all of our LOB aps and servers will work fine with it. A few questions
    1. We use workstations coming with OEM win8 license (all currently running win7 downgrade). I noticed that oficially there is no win8.1 offline upgrade package! Does that mean that Microsoft officially wants people to sing into Windows Store with a Microsoft
    account to perform online upgrade with administrative privileges? That's pretty awkward ...
    I figured that I could use win 8.1 installer ISO/UFD that I created in past (for home computer actually), but am not sure if that works out with our win8 OEM license keys tied to BIOS/UEFI on each desktop computer.
    Was actually expecting an 8.1 Service Pack package that I could publish to WSUS, so it could take care of upgrade on win8 computers, but there is no such thing ... and no official package for 8.1 offline deployment either ... weird ...
    Currently I am actually about to upgrade my own/test workstation to 8.1 (from 8.0, using Windows Store online), then sysprep it and create a reference WIM image and see if I can deploy 8.1 thick image (with all updates and company apps installed) this way
    via WDS. anybody tested if it works this way? any gotchas?
    2. win8 GPOs
    Can somebody enlighten me where in Group Policies I can find a setting to re-assign ALL file/media extensions (e.g. jpg, tiff, png, bmp, mp4, WMV, etc.) back to Desktop applications instead of the horrible Metro UI equivalents?
    We are actually about to bypass Metro UI completely on each computer so it boots straight to desktop and all file upon double-click must open an application within Desktop (no Metro UI for end users).
    I know how to do this manually one by one via Group Preferences, but am asking if there is some specific GPO ADMX setting that would replace Metro UI apps with Desktop application in any and all file associations.
    Personally I see no point in using the clunky Metro UI without a touchscreen.
    3. is UAC enabled required for Windows Store to work?
    Seems like it needs at least the Low security setting, so the Windows Store and Metro UI stays operational. no workaround for that for disabled UAC environment?
    Just asking, it's not a big deal, people can learn to live with UAC, but am curious if that's by design.
    Thanks for answers!

    Hi,
    1. For upgrading to Win8.1, please refer the following link:
    http://windows.microsoft.com/en-in/windows-8/update-from-windows-8-tutorial  As I know, Win8 activated using KMS, cannot upgrade to Win8.1
    2. No, there is no such GPO settings added into Admin template. You will have to work around this using GPP...
    3. There is no way to bypass UAC and allow Windows Store at one time. UAC is headache since Vista times and we have to live with the Protection :) Believe me, it does good to PC safety.

    thanks for the answers!
    Yeah, UAC is a bit of a headache especially with legacy software. When deploying our Win7 domain clients however I got away by simply disabling it to make it easier for all users coming straight from XP environment.
    for future win8.1 deployments however, I will set the UAC level to Low and keep it there, so modern apps and winstore stays operational if anybody wanted it or needed it. not  a big deal, plus an added security layer, I agree with that.
    As per default win8 file extension associations ... well, that's a bummer, and yeah, the GPP is what I had in mind to work around that manually.
    I am running on upgraded win8.1 right now and so far I like it more or less in work environment, after adjustments that is :)
    My only problem is related to win 8.1 clean installation and imaging and deployment however, wanted to use Lite Touch via WDS for w8.1, but problem is that I have no image of win8.1 that can activate with OEM licenses tied to BIOS.
    Sysprep doesn't work on upgraded 8.1 (from 8.0), so I can't image that with generalization and on other hand the only generalized image I can take is from bare win 8.0 without the 8.1 upgrade. What I mean is that our computer vendor (HP) switched to OEM
    win8 licenses tied to UEFI/BIOS (no more case stickers) and that doesn't activate when I try to clean install 8.1 even though it should, but the build ID string in BIOS must be changed ... need to open a case with HP to work it out, I am sure it's still possible
    to achieve even without volume licensing.
    We use a Basic Infrastructure model so far with retail+OEM keys (no KMS so far but it's in plans if Office deployment plans get approved by CFO). I thought for 8.1 actually it was a good idea to implement Standardized Infrastructure with thick images, as
    manual upgrade to win 8.1 from win 8.0 is painful.

  • GRC 10: Centralized Emergency Access  - SPM Questions

    Can Firefighter logon using the Netweaver Business Client to launch Firefighter ID?
    Is that mandate to use GRC system to launch Firefighter ID using GRAC_SPM transaction code? or can the user logon to local system as well?
    What about Portal based system Firefighting functionality? Can we have Firefighter IDs on Netweaver Java system?  
    Will I be able to grant a Firefighter ID to a Firefighter User  on hourly basis?
    For initial setup , how the initial data load of Firefighter Ids Owners, Controllers and Firefighter Users can be done? Are there options like load from Excel or CSV available as part of setup toolset?

    Can Firefighter logon using the Netweaver Business Client to launch Firefighter ID?
    - No, GRAC_SPM is the way to go.
    Is that mandate to use GRC system to launch Firefighter ID using GRAC_SPM transaction code? or can the user logon to local system as well?
    - Yes. However, the option would be nice to have a workaround in case GRC is down
    What about Portal based system Firefighting functionality? Can we have Firefighter IDs on Netweaver Java system?
    - As far as I know only for transactional SAP systems.
    Will I be able to grant a Firefighter ID to a Firefighter User on hourly basis?
    - Same as answered already  - no.
