System copy guide for Solution Manager 7.0 SPS15

Hello,
a new hardware is needed for our SAP Solution Manager 7.0 SPS 15. I will install a new SAP Solution Manager and do a system copy from the old hardware to the new one. There is no migration neccessary, because OS and DB will be the same.
Now I'm searching for some informations and guides to do a system copy of a SAP Solution Manager. All I found was a system copy guide of Netweaver 04s SR3/SR2 with informations about Java Usage Types but not for Diagnostics.
Are there any guides or howtos to do a system copy with SAP Solution Manager ABAP+JAVA? Does anyone have experiences and advices?
Kind regards,
Sascha Piotrowsky

> Looking forwards to this event I'm afraid of forgetting some dependencies or configurations which have to be changed also, like SMD-Agents configuration,s trusted connections, wiley introscope, e2e and so on.
Wily is not part of the copy - you will need to copy this "manually". The connections et al must be re-done...

Documentation for Solution Manager 4

Hi all!
Iam going crasy..
At the moment I am just customizing the solution manager 4. In the reference guide section create background jobs they refer to the configuration guide of the solution manager 4. 0 to get a complete list of background jobs for the solution manager 4.0.
Ive downloaded the configuration guide for solution manager 4.0 but there is no information about this. I know the place of documentation on the sap market \solutionmanager.
Did anybody know something more?
Thank you for help!
Best regards
Thomas

Hello Thomas,
Please in spro go to Basic Settings->SAP Solution Manager System->Schedule Background Jobs
The information of this point is more than enough to configure these jobs.
In a previous Configuration Guide you can see:
Periodic Jobs
Periodic Job scenario
REFRESH MESSAGE STATUS used to collect responses from SAP for messages
and Issues sent from the SAP Solution Manager
SOLMAN_ISSUE_STATUS_REFRESH Service Desk
SM:SCHEDULER Solution Monitoring
BTC_CMS_COLLECTOR Change Manager

Download Location For solution manager 4.0

Hello,
 I am planning to install NW2004s_SR1 portal.
For installation of portal we need to generate a key from solution manager.
 I am new to the installation of solution manger,can some tell me the exact download path for the software (solution manager 4.0).? I have tried with the path (service.sap.com/swdc >Downloads Installations and Upgrades > Entry by Application Group<your solution>
<release of your solution> <your operating system><your database>.)as given in the installation guide of solution manager 4.0 (SOLMAN_40_SR1_WIN_MSSQL.pdf), but not able to find.
Here are my system details
OS: windows server 2003
DB: Microsoft SQL server 2005
Regards
Sunil Kulkarni
PS: Rewarding points will be given for helpful answer.

Hi Prince/ Sridhar,
 Thank you very much for your reply & time. I have navigated as directed by you,(SAP marketplace> SWDC> Installations and Upgrades > SAP Technology Components),but could see only two links as:
*SAP REMOTE DATABASE MONITOR
*SAPINST
(Solution manager link is not appearing)
 I think, I need to raise a ticket with SAP to cross check our licence.(since we have licence for MS SQL server only. Do you think this could be the reason?)
Sridhar: To get the right side navigation, which JAVA component, we need to install on the system? (I have both j2sdk1.4.2_09 & Sun AppServer installed on my machine.)

Sunil kulkarni

Third-party tools for solution manager

Hi all,
Im new for solution manager a i just want to know whats SM tools and whats the third-party tools integrate and interface with SAP Solution Manager and if will be more third party tools?? ( Whats the add on tools SM have??)
regards
Tim

Hi Murali Narayanan
If you wan to achieve monitoring from technical perspective, the way that was introduced by shivjansi might be the option.
If you want to check the entry of specific table in stand alone MSSQL to ensure the business process that use MSSQL
stand alone DB, you can use BPMon remote DB monitoring that enables monitoring of non ABAP/ non SAP that supported
by netweaver like MSSQL, Oracle, DB2.
By using this function, you can monitor the entry of your stand alone SQL server.
For example, stand alone SQL Server has some table that contains some error,
or there is application table and in one row that it indicates error or completeness.
Now if you want to check these error document or incomplete document in the DB,
you can use BPMon remote DB monitor.
By monitoring this, you can ensure whether there is issue in your business or not.
You can find out how to setup from following link.
http://service.sap.com/bpm
->technical detail ->Setup Guide for non-ABAP/non-SAP
P14 (The monitoring object u201CGeneric Table Entry Counter for remote DBu201D (NATABCNX) )
is related description.
(In the document, it also introduce some other way using web service).
Also in same link, you can find out other document like how to setup BPMon.
Also there is some blog about table entry counter. it is for SAP ABAP system.
But the function is more or less same for remote DB.
So you can also check following blog to have more understandable image.

Wily Introscope Version for Solution Manager 7 SPS 17

Hi
We have a solution manager 4 (now 7) running on an ABAP stack only, this was recently upgraded from Solution Manager 3.2 which was installed 3 years ago as ABAP stack only, this server was never powerful enough to have the Java stack added and the project did not require it.
I am now looking to migrate this ABAP Solution Manager 7 to a new server, using ABAP & JAVA so I can make use of Solution Managaer tools like Diagnostics, RCA, WILY etc.
On a sandpit copy I have migrated the ABAP instance to a more powerful server and added the Java Instance from the Solution Manager 4 Installation Master, so I now have a dual stack SM 4, I have patched this to SP17.
I am looking to install Wily Introscope for monitoring, I have read Note 797147 - Wily Introscope Installation for SAP Customers, where it says you should always use the latest version of Wily, which is 8.0.2, but looking at the note, the downloads for Introscope Enterprise Manager and Introscope Workstation are from SAP SOLUTION MANAGER 7.0 EHP 1, but I am not running Solution Manager on EHP1, I am on SP Stack 17.
Looking in the SWDC there are downloads in SAP SOLUTION MANAGER 7.0 -> Entry by Component -> Solution Manager JAVA Stack -> WILY INTROSCOPE ENTPR MGR 8
Is this what I should be using for my SP Stack 17, or should I use the EHP1 version?
Also, setting up the Solution Manager Diagnostics, is there a setup PDF for Solution Manager 7 SP17 ? I cannot find a setup guide for this release, most are for EHP1, I would rather not have to implement EHP1 as part of this migration !
Thanks for any help.
Paul.

Hi Bhudev
Thanks for the reply, I presumed it was the Wily introscope 8 without the EHP1 I required.
As for installation guide, I have think you have misunderstood my question, I already have the wily installation guide from the note location, I wanted to know if there is any Solution Manager Diagnostics setup guides for SP17 ?
When I use transaction SOLMAN_WORKCENNTER --> System Monitoring --> Solution Manager Diagnostics --> Diagnostics System --> Diagnostics Setup --> Setup Wizard
the first 2 (of 23) setups are failing :
SSO The value of profile parameter login/accept_sso2_ticket could not be checked
BI Cannot invoke CCMSBISETUP on host localhost
Warning :
User(BI) Role SAP_BI_E2E does not exist
Then it says :
To complete the Diagnostics Setup, you should perform the following operations as documented in Diagnostics Setup Guide
I cannot find this Diagnostics Setup Guide for SP17 ?
The installation guides are mainly for EHP1, media library under sap-ag.de/diagnostics does not show this setup guide, Master Installation guide does not mention it, so was wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction for this guide ?
Thanks,
Paul.

No EarlyWatch Alert for Solution Manager task in SDCCN

Hello All,
We have configured SAP Solution Manager and managed system to generate EWA report.
In Solman, we have created the system, logical system and solution. We have activated the managed system in Setup EarlyWatch Alert in Solman.
In Managed system, we have activated SDCCN, assigned BACK RFC, created Maintenance package and refresh sessions.
However, after completing the Maintenance package task there is no EarlyWatch Alert for Solution Manager task created in managed system. We have reviewed the task logs and found no errors.
In Solman, when we create EWA for today's date the status is showing with an Hour glass stating that "Wait for session data: SAP EarlyWatch Alert and session number"
Kindly assist us in fixing this issue
Thanks in advance
Regards,
Satish

Hi
the task "early watch alert for solution manager" created automatically when did you perform the task "refreh session" or "Maintenance Package"
please create the relevant task, via : SDCCN -> Task -> Create ->Request session data ->Periodic -> Earlywatch Alert -> Continue.
'Schedule' the start date of the first session and - Task -- create Click on 'Refresh sessions' - Press 'Enter' - Select 'Now', to schedule the job 'immediately. once you create the relevant tasks you go by, in the Menu - Goto -> start - to activate the Earlywatch alert session Now, you can check the finished EWA task in 'done' tab.
Login to Solution Manager, goto trx. DSWP --> Select your solution, Solution Monitoring - Earlywatch alert - Click on Earlywatch alert --> start service processing --> Press 'OK' to start the background job - click 'Refresh'
Now, you can see the 'Early watch alert' in the green colour .

Hi Azeem,
Just before creating the rfc connection do this step.
Set-Up Solution Manager Connection to Solution Manager Diagn
Use
Check the connection to function Solution Manager Diagnostics.
Default Settings
The function Solution Manager Diagnostics is installed on the Java instance of the Solution Manager system by default.
Activities
If the default values are correct, save the settings.
To run the Solution Manager Diagnostics in another system, enter the required data and save.
Also check that your java is active.

Is it feasible to create odataservice for Solution manager using UI5 technology?

Hi Experts,
Is it possible to create new odata service for solution manager, such as Viewing BPML(Business process master list).
If yes, kindly share the steps/way to achieve.
Regards,
Asmita Ranade

Julie,
same answer here which you already got in the two threads you opened on the MOS communities: No, not really since you want to do it in Answers. It *would* be possible in the RPD, but quite pointless to instantiate an RPD variable just to instantiate some literal code.

Problem in installation of Business Content for Solution Manager

Hi all,
I have a problem while trying to install the Business Content for Solution Manager. In detail, I cannot install/ see the Process chains. I am not much familiar with Business content installation, so maybe I missed and /or some step.
Following the instructions from SAP IMG (SPRO/ SAP IMG / Solution Manager / Configuration / Scenario-specific settings / Solution monitoring / BI Reporting / BI Client) , I activated the Datasource 0SM_SMG_ROOT , performed all the steps and installed all the relevant Business Objects (Infoobjects, Datasources, Infocubes, Infopackages, etc.). All the objects seen from transaction RSA1 seem correctly installed and activated.
The last step is the installation/activation of the Process chains. This step is executed, but the installation job terminates with messages like Infopackage 0SM_XXXX does not exist in D version; activation not possible. It seems like Process chains are looking for some Infopackage, and these are not present. They are not present indeed, and I dont know why. The result is that no Process chain is visible from transaction RSPC.
Am I missing some step, or doing a wrong/ incomplete procedure ?
Thanks a lot

HI Saravanan,
For Solman Service Desk, the following objects are used :
Cube : 0CSRV_C01
DSO : 0CRM_PROH
DataSource : 0CRM_SRV_PROCESS_H
And apart from this there are some MD datasources, for BPARTNER, USER STATUS, CATEGORY etc.

There isn't a lot of standard content for Solution Manager. It's mostly alerts, server, module, database and overall system information for the environments connected to that Solution Manager instance. The standard DataSources are:
0SM_DSWPBI_BPM                   BPM Data (Alert Data)
0SM_DSWPBI_DB390
0SM_DSWPBI_DB400                DB400 Data
0SM_DSWPBI_DBADA               Adabas Data
0SM_DSWPBI_DBDB2               DB2 Data
0SM_DSWPBI_DBINF                Informix Data
0SM_DSWPBI_DBMSS              SQL Server Data
0SM_DSWPBI_DBORA              Oracle Data
0SM_DSWPBI_MODUL              Module Data
0SM_DSWPBI_PERF                 Performance Data

0SM_DSWPBI_SYSDATA          System Details Data
0SM_DSWPBI_SYSTEM            System Data
There are several InfoCubes, one for each DataSource in the standard content. These InfoCubes are then unioned in a standard content MultiProvider.
