Guide me how to automate UME LDAP Configuration

Hello colleagues,
I am not sure if this is the right place for putting my question.
We wanted to automate 'UME LDAP Configuration with Microsoft AD', because we have nearly 25 portals and has to be refreshed for every 3 months from different systems. Instead of configuring UME every time, we wanted to automate it such that
it can be done by one click for each portal.
I am not aware, if it can be done through Webdynpro or Java API.
Please let me know in which way we can achieve this functionality. If it is in Java then please let me know how to access UME APIs. Moreover Configtool will not save its data at O.S level, it stores in DB.
Please guide me on achieving this.
Regards,
kasi

Hi Nivas,
thank you very much for your answer.
Could you please let me know any APIs to use these functions
I googled and found APIs for User management ( creating,deleting ,etc..) only.
I could not find any APIs for LDAP settings in Configtool.
I wanted to set these values ( which are specified in above link ) from out side.
Regards,
venkat

UME LDAP configuration XML file

Dear Experts-
I am configuring multiple LDAP as ume for EP 7.0 EHP2 . I am following the the document below.
http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/8036faa9-3d95-2c10-e596-c7c97082f07e?QuickLink=index&overridelayout=true
It mentions xml file to be dowloaded is dataSourceConfiguration_multiLDAP_db.xml file but ther eis no such file. Can you please let me know where I can find this.
The only ones I see are.
Microsoft ADS readonly , deep and flat
Microsoft ADS Deep & flat
Novell LDAP Read only flat and deep
Novell LDAP flat & deep
DatasourceConfiguration_simens_deep_readonly_db
Siemes LDAP servers Read flat & deep
Just to let you know we are using MS ADS flat. Please let me which which file I can choose to put the second LDAP data source.
Thanks,
John

John,
There is no such file (dataSourceConfiguration_multiLDAP_db.xml) delivered for configuring multiple LDAP data sources.
You will need to download dataSourceConfiguration_ads_readonly_db.xml and modify as per your needs and upload it with your own custom name.
1. Open the dataSourceConfiguration_ads_readonly_db.xml file using a text
editor (other than Notepad) and locate the <dataSource.../> section for the u201CCORP_LDAPu201D.
2. For each additional LDAP server, paste the copy into the document after the original
</dataSourceu2026> ending tag for the CORP_LDAP source. Change the name of the data source for
pasted copy to u201CCORP_LDAP_Xu201D or some other value. This value becomes a data source identifier
for UME and prefixes the principal Ids.
For each LDAP data source, locate the <privateSectionu2026> within the <dataSourceu2026> tag and
enter the following lines if they are not present:
<ume.ldap.access.server_name>SERVER_HOSTNAME</ume.ldap.access.server_name>
<ume.ldap.access.server_port>SERVER_PORT</ume.ldap.access.server_port>
<ume.ldap.access.user>DS_USER_NAME</ume.ldap.access.user>
<ume.ldap.access.password>DS_PASSWORD</ume.ldap.access.password>
<ume.ldap.access.base_path.user>USER_ROOT_IN_DS</ume.ldap.access.base_path.user>
<ume.ldap.access.base_path.grup>GROUP_ROOT_IN_DS</ume.ldap.access.base_path.grup
>
Save this file with your custom name and upload it.
Thanks,
Shanti

Thank you.

I'm not sure of the point of doing this, and it certainly won't be
supported.

How to automate Sql Server Configuration Manager settings?

For example, I have just installed Sql Express 2012, and need to configure it for use over the local network. Usually I just manually open Sql Server Configuration Manager -- Sql Server Network Configuration -- <myinstance>, and enable TCP/IP on 1433.However,
I am not going to be available to do this on every customer's computer. I need to do these steps using a script or something. Is there a way to do this?

Have a look at this stackexchange thread:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/9138172/enable-tcp-ip-remote-connections-to-sql-server-express-already-installed-databas
There are two good options outlined there
1. install it with the /TCPENABLED=1 switch (in the original post)
2. Execute a wmi script post-install (in the answer)
Note: if you decide to use WMI the root path will be \root\Microsoft\SqlServer\ComputerManagement11 for 2012
I will have to support install time, and post install. Does TCPENABLED=1 also setup the 1433 port value in TCP/IP Properties - IP Addresses tab?

How to create a user in J2ee UME, if LDAP configured?

Hi SAP Gurus,
I have a question for my J2EE engine. We configured LDAP for user storage, so that our User can use there normal LDAP user ID. Now I want to create an administrative user like J2EE_ADMIN or Administrator, these are standard users and present in the UME of the J2EE engine since the installation of my portal.
But when I go to the user admin and want to create this new admin user, I got an error message, that Im not able to create it.
I also try to create the user via the Visual Admin and the J2EE Useradmin.
So my question is, how can create this new user in the UME and NOT in the LDAP???
Thanks.

Hi Marcel Haberland ,
If your idea is to have single Sign on , I would say the process is to create the user in LDAP itself that will be the single point of entry , Since the UME is configured and connected to LDAP normally with read permission your best bet will be to create the user in LDAP.
SSO with is configured to all your backend syst ( trusts needs to be configured between Java/Portal to all your backend systems by Basis team), also the ids needs to exist in all the backends.
Now to come back to your question:
If you can login to UME of portal/Java , and create the user do not expect it to appear on your LDAP
mainly because LDAP will never be configured in a Enterprise project as bidirectional ( ie Read/Write ), it will be readonly.
Also if the Basis/Portal team allow you the option to create the user in UME , they will have to restart the machine everytime you need to point to a different data source , but I dont know if this is the case in EHP4 versions, because SAP claims with EHP4 downtimes are almost nullified.

Urgent - How to change UME datasource during Installation

Hey Guys,
I am installing a SAP ERP 2005 SR2 system on Windows- Oracle. My question is I want to change UME datasource to dataSourceConfiguration_r3.xml
But when I run SAPinst, during all input phase it never ask me for choosing UME datasource.
Can somebody guide me how to do it! its a Urgent one!
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
You can change using the config tool.
But why do you want to change ? If your installation is an add-in then it would be the same it would refer to the abap-system if it is an addin.
Any ways you can change it ,but y default it will select the
datasourceconfigration_r3_rw.xml.
in config tool open it in configuration editor mode and then navigate to cluster>data>server>cfg>services and borwse for data source config

UME LDAP Data - XML file not appearing

Hi,
I have configured the readonly ADS with DB for the user authentication. Now I want to restore back to the default datasource configuration (dataSourceConfiguration_database_only.xml). But in the dropdown box in the Configtool >> UME LDAP data under the "Directory Security" tab, I am not able see the config XML file for the DB only. I tried uploading the file, but its saying file already exists. After this I tried deleting the fils from the cluster_data\server\persistent\com.sap.security.core.ume.service and then uplaoded the XML file. Still this is not appearing in the List of Datasources available.
Can you please let me know how shall I revert the Datasouce to DB only?
Regards,
Debasis

Hi,
Go to ConfigTool -> Global Server Configuration -> Services -> com.sap.security.core.ume.service.
You can change the value of ume.persistence.data_source_configuration to dataSourceConfiguration_database_only.xml.

Siva

Problem with LDAP configuration in Enterprise Manager

Hi all,
I'm new at Java CAPS. After install some pieces of Java CAPS now I'm trying to install and configure a Sun Java System Directory Server 5.2 in our environment.
I've already configured the Repository and the Logical Host to work with the ldap, but I have some troubles to do it with the Enterprise Manager.
I followed the instructions of the Administrator guide about the changes to do in web.xml and ldap.properties of the sentinel app but when I do login the Enterprise Manager I can't see the options of the tree to manage servers or users.
It seems that the app don't recover the user roles. I think so becouse I tried to create one user without roles (in normal authentication, without ldap configured) and when I did login in the result was the same.
At the beginning of the process I created the roles 'all', 'administration' and 'management'. However I tried to copy de roles of the Tomcat authentication from 'tomcat-users.xml' to ldap roles, but it doesn't work.
Anyone could help me?
Thanks in advance, and sorry for my rudimentary English

Check that you have the correct Preferred Credentials with Logon as batch job if this is windows. Also check the correct configuration with regards LDAP integration for you platform.

How can I use LDAP searching from OSX Lion Server to Mozilla Thunderbird?

How can I use LDAP searching from OSX Lion Server to Mozilla Thunderbird? We have a super awesome contacts server that works great for our Mac users. About 30% of our company are on PCs, and I would like to use the Mozilla Thunderbird mail client for them. I see that in Thunderbird I can set up LDAP searching, and would like to have this feature point to our contacts server. I've tried several different settings, and looked all over the web, but could not find the proper way to configure this. Does anyone know if this can be done, or if not, would have a better suggestion? Thank you for your time!!

Automatic replication of Configuration from R/3 (ECC) to CRM 2007

Hi all,
We would like to set up an automatic replication of configuration maintained in R/3, e.g. Customer group 1, Payment terms, Incoterms, etc.. in order to secure consistency between R/3 and CRM as well as reduce work load.
As I understand, Customer data (customer_main) is supported by SAP but how about Configuration entries?
Is it possible?
Is it standard?
What is the way forward?
Your input is highly appreciated.
Thanks,
//Anders
