HOW TO DEFINE VIRTUAL HOST NAME IN HPIA64 + SAP R/3 ENTERPRISES 4.7

Hi all,
I am trying to install sap r/3 enterprises 4.7 with OS as HP-UX and Database as Oracle in a cluster environment.
In cluster environment sap installation should be done on virtual hostname ( package id ). I'm using the env variable SAPINST_USE_HOSTNAME=<VIRTUAL HOSTNAME>.
My cluster is running and I'm able to ping it from network, but at the time of SAP Installation my sapinst starts with the physical host name not with the virtual host name.
What can be the solution ..?
Thanks,
Chandresh Pranami.

Hi Chandresh,
Try executing sapinst with virtual hostname.
eg. ./sapinst SAPINST_USE_HOSTNAME=<VIRTUAL HOSTNAME>.
This should work.

How to confiture virtual hosts with multiple domain names

hello,
I've read through some of the postings here on virtual hosts, but I thought I'd better solicit advice before I actually try some of the things I've read about.
In a nutshell, I've purchased multiple domain names that I'd like to alias to a new site (currently it is just a subfolder in the main site directory) on my OS 10.3.x server. There is only the one main site configured right now on the box, so I know I need to set up a second "virtual site" pointing to the files in this subfolder to make it function as its own site.
I've dabbled around with the sites settings in the GUI, but I'd probably be most comfortable setting all this up in the httpd.conf by hand if I could. But I'm weary of this because I know it might be better to use the GUI because of OS X Server's flavor of WebObjects and Apache (sigh).
So, I have two main questions:
1) How would I set up this second site using the GUI in server settings? Do I need to first move the subfolder out of the main folder before it can be designated its own site? Or can I just point to it in the GUI? Can I use one of my purchased domain names in the domain field?
2) Currently, I have URL Forwarding set with my multiple domain names, but I'm thinking there might be a better way to do this? For SEO I'd rather use some type of redirect rather than being penalized by search engines for having what looks to be multiple domains pointing to the same site.I'm thinking I should create virtual sites for each domain name I've purchased with a hard redirect back to the main site?
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks

thank you for your reply.
> You can create each site as a new Site in Server
Admin. When you do this you can choose any
directory on disk as the document root for each
site.This means you can move the sites' folders out of
/Library/WebServer/Documents if you like - you could
create /Library/WebServer/site1,
/Library/WebServer/site2, etc. (or even be outside of
/Library/WebServer if you want).
so, are you are saying that I could designate one site to be
/Library/WebServer/Documents/site1
and another to be
/Library/WebServer/Documents/site1/directory1
even though directory1 is contained within site1's structure? I'm not advancing this as a good idea, necessarily. I'm just wondering if Apache would complain.
> Each site should have the domain name set as per your
registered domains. Apache will need this to
determine the correct site to serve for each
request.
Well, after some additional research I'm thinking I'm missing a critical piece of the puzzle. That being access to the DNS host server that manages the context of my server. I have purchased domain names through an outside registrar that point to my site and I can create virtual hosts on my server, but I don't have the ability to add the new virtual host names into the DNS server that manages my box. If that makes sense. Or maybe I'm missing something?
>
I'm not sure why you're using URL forwarding at all.
Without that piece of information it's impossible to
tell you whether you should continue using them or
not - in general there's no need to use URL
forwarding if you have multiple Virtual Hosts setup,
but it sounds like you have multiple hostnames
pointing to the same content, so your needs may be
different.
I'm using forwarding for the reason I list above. I didn't purchase hosting with the registrar where I purchased my domain names, so they are parked on the registrar's name server with URL forwarding to my server. The DNS server that manages my box resides in a different location and I don't have the ability to add DNS entries pointing to virtual hosts that I want to set up. Am I stuck?

How to Install an APO Livecache on Windows Using Virtual Host Names

Hi,
How to Install Live Cache on windows using Virtual Host names?
we are using SCM 4.0 with live cache build 7.4.3 on two differnt servers.
I have checked the Live cache CD (7.4.3) is with setup.cmd, where as it need use command sapinst.exe SAPINST_USE_HOSTNAME=Virtual hostname.
Please advise.
Thanks
Anil

a possible workaround (that I have no tested) is to temporarily name your server with the same of the virtual name, install. when completed, rename server to original name.
This is not a proven method, but it might work.

How to get a virtual host name from application in Tomcat?

Hi,
Is it possible to obtain the context path and virtual host name at the application (.war file) initialization stage?
I need to set up these info into my application config table.
Thanks

I think it is impossible. It seems the application has no access to the host configuration which it is running in.

AddNode cannot find Virtual Host name

Hi,all;
I want to replace a server in RAC for example RAC1. at first,I deleted node RAC1,this step is total clean out all information of RAC1 in the cluster.
then prepare new machine of RAC1 for cluster install.
When I run addNode.sh in RAC2 to re-add clusterware to RAC1. the first step of addNode is fill up the information of new node,Public node name,Private node name,Virtual host name.
It will list such info of the remain node also.
In my operation,It can find all info of new node which is rac2,rac2-priv,rac2-vip. but the remain node's Virtual host name is blank -- it shuould be rac1-vip.
In this step,I still click "Next" to proceed my operation and return not any error.
at the end of addNode.sh it will execute 3 script to end out operation of add clusterware to new node.
the third script is to run /opt/oracle/product/10.2.0/crs_1/root.sh in the new node RAC1,
the screen print "*Expecting the CRS daemons to be up within 600 seconds*."
but after waited more than *6000* seconds,it returned nothing to me,It seem idle! I cancle the script manual.the result is the CRS can not run on RAC1.
in RAC2,crs_stat -t can see ora.rac1.gsd , ora.rac1.ons , ora.rac1.vip. but they are all offline.
and run vipca in RAC2 reture
ora.rac1.gsd has placement error
ora.rac1.ons has placement error
has not more detail log file left in server.
I think all of my operation is normal and In line with the rules except it cannot export remain node's Virtual host name.
How to fix it? any ideal?
thank you.

Determine Virtual Host Name

I'm trying to figure out how to obtain the virtual host's name that a particular piece of code is running under. I am using Oracle 9i OAS.
I was looking at the ServletContext object, thinking I could get the virtual host name. However, that looks like a dead end. I've tried many other things like looking at the JNDI tree, and I don't see anything that might help.
Can someone help me with this?
Thanks

If it is just for administrative purposes, then you could add the virtualhost to your access log format.
If it is in your application, you might get some results from the http headers. Please do mind that this is no real secure option. Setting a cookie in combination with some server side context variables is better (but more work to implement).

Moving system to new hardware with Windows Virtual Host Name

I am building a new system using note "1564276 - How to install An SAP System on Windows using Virtual Host Names" because I have read that it will be easier to move to new hardware in the future. How is it easier and what would the process be? I can't get my mind around how I move to new hardware without re-installing.

Hi Mary,
If you follow SAP tools and guidelines it is supported for Production environment as well.
For eg: Using SAP LVM tool we can create clones of systems which are supported using this tool.
1709155 - System Provisioning with SAP Landscape Virtualization Management
1767253 - SAP's recommended approach to system copy
In case you are not licensed for LVM tool, suggestion here would be to perform a PoC which covers
- Creating clone of Production
- Isolate the PRoduction clone by removing DNS entries
- Test the Production clone
- Roll out solution to final migration.
Note: In case you have a JAVA stack system above approach may not help. In that case you may need to go with R3load export/import option and then move the virtual hostname to the new hardware.
Hope this helps.

Deepak Kori

How to resolve a host name from IP using JNDI/DNS service provider

Hi
I got two questions on JNDI/DNS service provider:
1) How to resolve a host name when i got an IP
I understand How I do it inverse.
Hashtable env = new Hashtable();
env.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY, "com.sun.jndi.dns.DnsContextFactory");
env.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL, "dns://"+server+"/"+domain);
DirContext ictx = new InitialDirContext(env);
Attributes attrs1 = ictx.getAttributes(host, new String[] {"A"});
2) This example above works when I specify the domain in the provider url.
If I am not specifing a domain but only the dns server I got an NameNotFoundException.
What should I do if I don't got the domain?
get the availible domains and loop on them?

Hi,
if your DNS server supports that, you can do a reverse DNS lookup. This works as follows:
String server = "your.dns.server";
String domain = "in-addr.arpa";
String ip = "4.3.2.1";
Hashtable env = new Hashtable();
env.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY, "com.sun.jndi.dns.DnsContextFactory");
env.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL, "dns://" + server + "/" + domain);
DirContext ictx = new InitialDirContext(env);
Attributes attrs1 = ictx.getAttributes(ip, new String[] {"PTR"});1: Use the pseudo-domain in-addr.arpa
2: Use the reverse IP address for lookup, i.e. if your host has 1.2.3.4, use 4.3.2.1!!
3: Request the PTR attribute

After Grid Infrastructure deinstallation: [INS-40912] Virtual host name assigned to another system on the network

Hi,
I have removed a successfully installed Grid Infrastructure Software. Now I was again installing it but the Installer is complaining about "[INS-40912] Virtual host name assigned to another system on the network", which it was not complaining about in the first installation process. :/
EDIT: I have checked and the two cluster-nodes are interpingable through their virtual IP's.
I see that the previous installation has created an own interface for that virtual IP:
eth0:2
Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:50:56:B9:0E:AA
inet addr:10.200.11.159 Bcast:10.200.11.255 Mask:255.255.252.0

OK Solved: I just did:

Virtual Host Name for CM

Hi ,
R12.1.3 & 11gR2 DB
I have a qucik question . When We have Virtual Host Name for setting , What Should be the node name for ICM in Concurrent Manager Admin form.
In One of our Instance : For ICM & Other Manager , its Virtual Host Name
For Other : ICM : Physical Host Name & Other Manager Virtual Host Name .
Which is good. We having a issue with ICM on both Nodes , in every minutes is going down and come up automatically.

Hi Hussein,
Thanks a lot. I have already review these document.
Is Auto Failover With Virtual Hostnames For Concurrent Processing Servers Supported In 11i Or R12? (Doc ID 456540.1)

Concurrent Processing - CONC-SM TNS FAIL In Internal Concurrent Manager (ICM) Log File With Virtual Hosts Configuration [ID 961216.1]
ICM Not Starting: Node Name not Registered [ID 602942.1]
I am curious what should be the node name in concurrent manager Administrator form.
W ether is should be the virtual host name or physical host name.
I have just checked with few people , Some Says ICM node name should be Physical server name & Other CM name can be Virtual name. I am not sure on what basis people are saying.
Few says node name should be the physical host for every CM.
Note Sure what is correct & best configuration.

Servername and virtual host name is the same - how to handle this

Hi,
I set up a server with the hostname yxzwiki.org
In the Server app under Websites this domain points to /Sites
In this /Sites directory is all my content (several Wikis) and also the phpmyadmin.
What is the issue now?
I want this xyzwiki.org not only as the hostname but as a virtual host as well.
So I have the following entry in the corresponding conf file.
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName xyzwiki.org
ServerAdmin [email protected]
DocumentRoot "/Sites/xyzwiki/xyzenwiki"
DirectoryIndex index.html index.php
How can I handle this?
xyzwiki.org shows the content of /Sites/xyzwiki/xyzenwiki but I cannot e.g. get access to http://xyzwiki.org/phpmyadmin
Any ideas?
Thanks
Tristan

I guess I have talk more about this issue that people got the chance to help
xyz.org is the host name of our server.
The intention of this server is to run a wiki via mediawiki.
When we first set up the server we planned to have three language versions and the corresponding wikis were found on the server under
en.xyz.org for the English version
de.xyz.org for the German and
es.xyz.org for the Spanish version
But then we decided ONLY to concentrate on the English version and so prefix en became deprecated and we only want the domain xyz.org that shows the English Wiki.
The English wiki is on our server under /Sites/xyz-wiki/xyz-enwiki
In the Server.app I defined /Sites as the server website and I have a virtual host for xyz.org AS WELL that defines /Sites/tangowiki/tangoenwiki.
This seems to overrule the entry in the server.app as xyz.org shows the content of /Sites/xyz-wiki/xyz-enwiki
As I have other "services" as well under /Sites, e.g. phpmyadmin it is not possible for me with xyz.org/phpmyadmin to get to this service.
So what I am looking for is a trick that I can keep the /Sites directory as the main directory for xyz.org. I was thinking of a symlink for the index.php from /Sites/xyz-wiki/xyz-enwiki and to remove the virtual host entry but this does not work. Any other ideas.
Cheers
Tristan

Defining Virtual Hosts so the Server App does not hijack them?

Does anyone know how one might define manually define virtualhosts in Lion Server so the OS does not go and trash them, or mess with the conf files? Right now the server keeps stealing any virtual hosts I create manually and creating conf files to the standard of the Server App. The problem is I have several virtual hosts that have custom information in them and I need to restore the file whenever this happens. Any ideas?

Put all your config files in something unknown to Apple. I like to use 'vhosts' instead of 'sites'.
Then just add this to your httpd.conf...
Include /private/etc/apache2/vhosts/*.conf
I would keep a copy of your httpd.conf at all times. Apple likes to wipe that out on system updates.
