How export permisions of a file system repository

Hi Forum
How can i export the permissons and more properties of a file system repository that i had exported with WebDav ?
Thnks

Ji Josue,
The KM content export can be done using ICE and WebDAV.
We normally transport the KM content and configurations.
The KM content will be transport using ICE and configuration can be transfered using WebDav.
Please go throguh these series blogs and you will get very clear Idea on KM Tranports:

How to control permissions in KM using File System Repository Manager

Hello everybody
I have a scenario with 15+ file servers which content needs to be mapped into Portal KM as read-only.
Windows Authentication is configured on the portal, so the users don't need to supply the portal with username/password.
Now the users are of course only allowed to see the same content in the portal as they can see on the file servers. I know that the permission mapping can be done using a File System Repository Manager with W2KSecurityManager, but in that case the users will have to maintain the mapping of rights from windows to portal manually. And with ever-changing passwords this is too big an administrative task. So I am looking for another solution.
My question is therefore:
How can you configure the File System Repository Manager in a way where it the user does not need to maintain "user mapping" manually, but only need to logon to the portal (through windows authentication) and can see the same files from the portal as he/she can see from the file servers.
Can this information in some way be taken from the configured Windows Authentication? Or is the only solution to enable WebDav on the file servers and and follow the "Integration of Windows File Servers into the SAP KM platform Using SSO and the WebDAV Repository Manager"-guide?
Any help will be rewarded.
Best regards,
Martin Søgaard

Hi again Dirk
I just studied the "Integration of Windows File Servers into the SAP KM platform using SSO and the WebDAV repository manager"-guide in depth and I don't quite understand what rights the cmadmin_service and notificator_service are supposed to be given in the Active Directory. In the guide it says:
"A number of global services and repository services need to perform operations on resources in various repositories. For example, the index management service must read all resources it is meant to index. When an index is created, the service user index_service is used. Therefore, this user has to have at least read access to all repositories that are to be indexed. Other users that are used by the SAP KM platform are the service users notificator_service and cmadmin_service. When a search is taking place, it is the user that is currently logged on to the portal."
I dont quite understand what the two service users are doing but more importantly, I need to give the two service users the correct permissions in the Active Directory (or through user mapping). I understand that index_service only needs read_only permissions, but what permissions should the cmadmin_service and notificator_service be given?
Best regards,
Martin

How to export SSIS package to File system in SQL Server 2012

I am accessing SSIS package by connecting to a database engine. I wanted to export the SSIS to file system. How to get it done in sql server 2012? I tried Util utility , i got package not present. Let me know what other options are available to export to
file system?
Mano

Hi Mano,
After exporting the project stored in a SSISDB catalog to an .ispac file, we can modify the extension .ispac to .zip, then, we can extract the zip file to get the .dtsx package files. Besides, please note that if there are project level connection managers
or parameters, their definition cannot be exported to individual packages.

Creating File System Repository for a remote system

Hi Experts,
My requirement is that I need to create a KM repository in EP from where I need to upload documents into the BW system. Is File System Repository the right type of repository which I need to create for this purpose?
If yes, then in what format do I have to specify the value of the Root Directory property of the repository? I have a folder /data/docs created in the BW system within which I want to upload documents using this repository. But since this folder is located on the BW system which is a remote system for EP, I am not sure how I have to enter the path to this folder.
Can anyone give me any hints on this?
Warm Regards,
Saurabh

Hello Saurabh,
I don't think an FS repository is what you are looking for in this scenario, you could instead use a BI Repository Manager, for more information see:

File System Repository Index

Hi all,
I´m trying to create an index wich data source is a file system repository (the file system is remote). Surfing trough help.sap i found this:

And then in SDN i found this post: File System Repository can't be assigned to Index and I already add the "properties" service to my repository, but it didn´t work, Any other idea?

Hi,
For creating index u must configure TREX

Thanks
Sushanth

Hi
A general recommendation would be to use small letters in all ID's regardring network drives, repositories etc. See https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/002fb447-d670-2910-67a5-bfbbf0bb287d for advice on how to optimize performance of KM.
Other than that, you could check the documentation mentioned here:
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/message?messageID=6398301#6398301
It seems as the root directory in your File System Repository Manager is not defined correctly. It should be forward slash instead of backslash.
Go through the settings again and see if the startup error changes or disappears. The startup error indecated that it is a configuration error.

Showing Custom File System Repository in portal

Hello,
We have defined a local shared file system repository in Portal. I can see the repository under CA->KM Content->root -> ourlocalRepository.
My question is that how we should provide access to this repository to end user who can access the this through portal and manage the content within it? I don't want to give CA access to user otherwise user can see/manage everything under root folder. We just want to show user only our local repository to end user.
regards,
Jaish

HI,
Are you needed to provide the permission for particular repository then you can give that through context menu nearby repository name.
If the end user want to view based on the permission then create the KMNavigation iView with the specified path. Assign that iView to role and assign that role to end-user.

Query on File System Repository..Please guide

Hello All,
I have successfully created the File System Repository, connecting a folder on my windows 2000 machine to an EP (Netweaver 2004s) KM, following the steps like:
1. Creation of Windows System
2. Network Path since the server and my machine are seperate systems
3. Creation of the File System Repository.
You may refer to the above steps in detail using <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/e3/92322ab24e11d5993800508b6b8b11/frameset.htm">link</a>
Question:
1. After the successful creation, I deleted the Windows system created, but the File System Repository was still working all fine. Why so? Shouldn't this throw me an exception?
2. While creation of the Windows System, I entered the ID and Desription.
In the Network Paths, I entered the folder's name (folder which is on my machine/which is to mapped) & my machine's username + password.
Then how does the system/server know which windows system is to be mapped for the netwrok path?
In other words, what is the mapping betweeen the Network path & Windows system?
3. If you access the above link, there is a step of creating a System in the Portal System Landscape. What is the need to do this? Can you please explain......
Why create a PCD System object, System Alias, etc....
Would appreciate if you please help me understand this concept.....
Awaiting REply.

Problem of Network File System repository

Hi all:
I want to set up a File system repository on a remote server.
The steps are here:
1.Define a Network Path.
2.Set up a File system repository.
Things done when the file system and the portal server are in the same zone of address,like 10.XXX.5.XX and 10.XXX.5.XXX, but when reference to another file system, which IP is 10.XXX.10.XX, the repository can never start up!
The message in Component Monitoring is "The localroot does not exist:
10.XXX.10.XX"
How can I solve this problem?

Hi Rani,
1.I think I have done all the steps setting up a File system repository. And when the server and File system are in the same segment of IP address, the repository works.
Security Manager:AclSecurityManager
ACL Manager Cache: not set
Windows Landscape System: not set
2.when use servername as the path, the message on monitoring is still on IP address.
3.I can't see the folder
4. I can open the path from the server on exploer.

Access Denied when access to File System Repository

Hi,
Our SAP Portal install in Windows 2003, and access to a unix's file system that created from File System Repository of Portal. When I access it in KM content, SAP Portal return the following message:
System Error
An exception occurred during the program execution. Below you will find technical information pertaining to this exception that you might want to forward to your system administrator.
Exception Class: class com.sapportals.wcm.repository...
Exception Message: Access denied
If I double-click any file,
IE return 403: The requested operation is forbidden for this resource.
Please help me to fix this problem?
PS: The unix's file system mode is 777.
The permission of folder in Portal File System Repository is everyone full control.

Hi,
to my knowledege, this combination is not supported. You can integrated Windows-File-Shares in a Unix-Portal: http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/ed/b334ea02a2704388d1d2fc3e4298ad/frameset.htm but not the other way round

How to check if a file system in global zone is shared on zones

Hello,
Would you by any chance know how to detect if a file system in the global zone is shared with any zones created from the global zone (either shared with readonly or read-write)?
Thanks in advance.

Frank

Usually they're shared via lofs. So try 'df -kZ -F lofs'.

File System Repository - User Mapping not Working

Hi,
I tried to integrate a file system into KM. For doing so, I followed the guide located at [http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/ed/b334ea02a2704388d1d2fc3e4298ad/frameset.htm|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/ed/b334ea02a2704388d1d2fc3e4298ad/frameset.htm].
The only problem is, tht the user mapping doesn't seem to work...
The portal is running on a UNIX system, whereas the file share to be integrated is running on a Windows 2003 Server.
Here are the single steps that I performed:
- Creation of a KM Windows System in the system landscape directory with the ID "MySystem". User Mapping is set to "User,Admin"
- Creation of a Windows System in the system landscpe of the KM with the ID "MySystem"
- Creation of a Network Path in KM with following settings:
jCIFS Protocol is activated; Network Path = "
My Server\My Share"; User = "My Windows Domain\My User" and the according password. The specified user has administration permissions on the server.
- Creation of a readonly File System Repository Manager with following settings:
Root-Directory = "
My Server\My Share", SecurityManager = W2kSecurityManager, ACL Manager Cache = ca_rsrc_acl, Windows Landscape System = "MySystem"
- Configuration of the W2KSecurityManager: I specified the DomainFile-setting as "/etc/companydomaincontrollers.txt"
and placed such a file in the KM with following setting: "My.Server.Domain=According IP Adress"
- In UME I carried out user mapping for index_service user and placed the above mentioned admin user into the user mapping.
Result: The indexing works fine, all fles are indexed. When I however try to carry out a user mapping for a "normal" portal user in the UME it doesn't work: The portal user has no access to the file system. (I used the same admin user for mapping... so it should work).
Any help is appreciated...
P.S. With portal super admin users I can however access the fle system repository, even without user mapping. But I think this is ok, because I read in one forum message that admin users have always access in general....

Hi Frank,
thanks for your reply.
I have as well definied an Alias Name with exactly the same id. So this gives us following:
System landscape directory: KM Windows System with id="MySystem" and Alias="MySystem"
KM System Landscape: Windows System with id="MySystem"
In the created file system repository manager I also set "MySystem" for the Windows Landscape System parameter.
So I think that this should be correct (I also considered upper- and lowercase letters).
Maybe the probem lies in specifying the domain names? When I applied user mapping I always additionally specified the Windows domain name of the users, which is correct I think.
In the security manager configuration for the domain controllers (-> [http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/a9/c54e9e09448d46b73d154e93d5e995/content.htm]) I however mapped the network domain of the file share server to the according IP adress. Maybe this is wrong?
