How to Migrate from SAP BO XI 3.1 system to SAP BI 4.1

Hello Gurus,
I got a new project and I have to start Upgrade and Migration from BO XIR3.1 to BI 4.1. Please help me out here. More detail are given below. Appreciated in advance.
1.1    Technical Scope
Installation of only a production SAP BI 4.1 environment.
Repository is currently on DB2 but will be on SQL Server for the BI 4.1 implementation.
All VMware machines: The new architecture calls for 12 VM servers.
Row-level Security in the universe for authorization of content and Enterprise for Authentication (no SSO). Matrix security model with custom level groups which gives Basic, Intermediate, and Advanced level users to pre-defined folders and content.
Migrate content (objects, universe and instances) from SAP BO XI 3.1 to SAP BO BI 4.1 for the technical upgrade, the details are below:
Universes will stay in the UNV format and will not be converted to UNX.
Only WebI Documents
All Controlled Folders - (~5600 documents)
174 Total objects in Public Documents folders (All documents to upgrade & remediate)
5,433 Total WebI reports in Corporate and other folders (All documents to upgrade, & remediate)
User Folders – (~6,000 documents)
6000 + Webi documents accessed in 2013 ( All 6000 + documents to upgrade, NO remediation)
Inbox – None will migrate
Total Documents to remediate: up to 5,607
Migrate all universes and connections
Migrate all Xcelsius and agnostic documents with no remediation.
The estimated report count for remediation by complexity, Low-1525, Medium-150 and High-50.
Assumes a 10% report remediation effort described earlier sections
Report remediation: should it exceed the base assumptions made in this document, will be implemented as a Change Order. Effort for such change will be mutually agreed between parties. Price to project is determined using this effort and blended rates.
Testing:
Conduct planning and inventory analysis; Reusable templates for Migration Plan, Validation.
Perform migration
Use the Right Sized Testing framework to plan and conduct testing
Use the automated Reports Compare tools to compare large volumes of excel / xml data
Templates based remediation– ensures quality control
Thanking you best regards.
AK.

  • How to migrate from SAP content server to OPENTEXT?

    We have been using SAP content server as our storage for archived data for years.
    Now we plan to start using OPENTEXT to admin our archived data.
    How can we use OPENTEXT together with existing SAP content server?
    My idea is to treat content server as any other media as as DVD, WORM, etc.
    However, I do not see that OPENTEXT can be configured to admin content server .
    If so, how to transfer whatever on the content server to IXOS?
    We are at Opentext 9.5.x
    Please share your experience. Thanks!

    hi,
    Please refere SNote 1043676.
    Also, need to understand the following,
    How to move an entire content repository from one content server to another
    Sometimes you may need to move a content repository - but not necessarily all the content repositories from one content server to another. This can be done without much drama. Here is a means that I've used in the past:
    Use report RSCMSEX to export the repository from the source content server.
    Create a repository of the same name on the target content server.
    Use Report RSCMSIM to import the repository into the target content server.
    Delete the repository from the source content server (if desired!).
    The SAP progrm sapkprotp controls the import and export. The ABAP reports allow you to specify the RFC destinations where sapkrpotp runs.
    For lager repositories
    The programs  listed above cannot deal with the whole content repository at the same time. For a slower migration, try using the program RSIRPIRL. This approach allows you to do the migation on a live system.
    Create the new content repository on your new content server.
    Create the new content category.
    If using distribution, distribute the new documents to the new category. otherwise change redirected category for DMS_C1_ST
    Relocate using the program.

  • Migration from SAP BC To SAP P.I

    HI Experts ,
    I am required to do migration from SAP BC to SAP P.I. I would require the following Info/Help from you as i have not worked on such scenario before this!
    1) What kind of challenges can be faced during migration from BC to XI?
    2) What is the best practise for doing the same?
    3) Can you share some scenario from where i can have some idea how to do migration?
    4) Generally how much time it takes in migration activity if ther are not much interfaces involved in it?
    Would appreciate your valuable inputs on the same!
    I have read How to guide docs on how to do migration from BC to XI but not convinced with the content
    Regards
    Saras Jain

    Hi Saras,
    I am giving you an example senario and a how to do all the steps and why it needed. if you need more information just mail me i'll give you the concerned PDF.
    Scenario
    SAP Business Connector enables data exchange between an SAP system and
    external systems using HTTP and e-mail. SAP Exchange Infrastructure (SAP XI)
    replaces SAP Business Connector (SAP BC).
    We distinguish between standard scenarios (that do not contain customer-specific
    development) and individual scenarios (that do contain services or mappings created
    by the customer). The following sections describe how to migrate both types of
    scenarios to SAP XI.
    Scenario 1 (IDoc – HTTP, HTTP – IDoc)
    An SAP system sends an IDoc to SAP BC or to SAP XI. The IDoc is converted to
    XML. It is sent to an external business partner by using HTTP.
    An external business partner sends an XML document by using HTTP to SAP BC or
    to SAP XI. The document is converted to an IDoc and sent to a connected SAP
    system in the internal system landscape.
    Scenario 2 (IDoc – Mail, Mail – IDoc)
    An SAP system sends an IDoc to SAP BC or to SAP XI. The IDoc is converted to
    XML. It is sent to an external business partner as an e-mail.
    An external business partner sends an e-mail to SAP BC or to SAP XI. The
    document is converted to an IDoc and sent to a connected SAP system in the
    internal system landscape.
    Flow Services
    Flow services are services that are written in the proprietary graphical-based flow
    language of SAP BC.
    Java Services
    Java services are services that are written in the Java language.
    There are several platforms that support Java, including SAP XI. However, the data
    model used in the Java services in SAP BC is proprietary.
    Stylesheet Transformations
    Stylesheet transformations are often used for mapping purposes. They take an XML
    document as input, convert it according to rules defined in the stylesheet, which is
    also an XML document, and produce an XML document as output.
    The XML Stylesheet Transformation Language (XSLT) was defined by W3C (World
    Wide Web Consortium), the consortium that defines most of the common standards in modern internet communication, such as HTML and SOAP.
    SAP NetWeaver is the open integration and application platform from SAP. With
    NetWeaver ’04, there is a significant overlap between the functions of SAP
    NetWeaver and SAP BC. Many functions provided by SAP BC are offered by SAP XI
    as part of SAP NetWeaver, for example, conversion of an IDoc to an XML message,
    mapping, routing, and adapters to connect to a large number of third-party back-end
    systems. SAP BC is therefore no longer needed. New or updated SAP solutions are
    based on SAP NetWeaver. Customers looking for a strategic integration solution for
    the complete application landscape should therefore now favor SAP NetWeaver.
    The last version of SAP BC was SAP BC 4.7, which was released in June 2003. SAP
    BC has not been developed further since this release. SAP BC is not released for
    any further platforms (such as Windows 2003) and does not support any further JDK
    versions, including the current version (Version 1.4).
    For information about the supported SAP BC versions, JDKs, and operating systems,
    see SAP Note 309834. For information about the support and maintenance strategy
    for SAP BC, see SAP Note 571530. Customers who still use SAP BC need to be
    aware of the following:
    • A solution based on SAP BC cannot be a strategic, long-term solution.
    • A solution based on SAP BC is based on technology that was implemented in
    2003 and that is no longer further developed.
    • SAP BC is supported on limited platforms and for limited JDKs only. Vendor
    support for some of these platforms and JDK versions will soon be
    discontinued.
    SAP BC and SAP NetWeaver are based on different technologies: SAP BC is based
    on webMethods’ proprietary Integration Server, whereas SAP NetWeaver is based
    on open standards, such as BPEL4WS (business process execution language for
    web services). Therefore, only parts of an SAP BC implementation, such as XSLT
    mappings, can be migrated to a solution based on SAP NetWeaver. Any custom
    programming based on SAP BC, such as SAP BC flow language, is unlikely to be
    reusable in the SAP NetWeaver context.
    Purpose of this Migration Guide
    The purpose of this migration guide is to provide scenario-based descriptions of the
    migration from a company’s system landscape that uses SAP BC to exchange
    documents with business partners, to a system landscape that uses SAP XI instead.
    This migration guide outlines, for certain scenarios, the individual steps a company
    has to take to replace an existing SAP BC implementation with SAP XI.
    The basic steps in the back-end systems are:
    • Defining the logical systems
    • Maintaining the ALE distribution model
    • Maintaining partner profiles and EDI ports
    • Maintaining RFC destinations
    The basic steps in the SAP XI system are:
    • Maintaining the System Landscape Directory
    • Configuring the IDoc adapter
    • Maintaining the receiver determinations, interface determinations, and
    interface agreements
    • Maintaining the communication channels
    The type of scenario to migrate typically has an impact on the communication channels only.
    Scenario 1 IDoc/HTTP
    IDoc – HTTP Using SAP BC
    Within the system landscape of a company, an SAP system sends an IDoc
    asynchronously to SAP BC. SAP BC converts the IDoc into a standard IDoc XML
    document. The fields of the IDoc are not modified, that is, the conversion does not
    involve any mapping of source fields to target fields. After conversion, SAP BC uses
    HTTP to send the XML document synchronously to an external URL of a business
    partner.
    System Landscape
    • An SAP system and SAP BC are installed within the same system landscape
    of a company.
    • The following information is defined in the SAP system to allow data
    exchange between the SAP system and SAP BC:
    o An RFC destination and a logical system for SAP BC
    o The distribution model is maintained, if necessary
    • The following information is defined in SAP BC:
    o An SAP server with an alias is defined. For this SAP server, the
    information that the SAP BC requires to connect to the SAP system is
    specified.
    o A listener is configured to listen to requests from the SAP system.
    o A routing rule with the transport type “XML” is configured for the
    specific sender, receiver, and message type. The routing rule
    determines how a message is to be routed and where it is to be routed
    to. The scenario described does not use an ACL, (Access Control List
    to restrict execution permissions for this routing rule) or pre-processing
    or post-processing SAP BC services.
    4.2 IDoc – HTTP Using SAP XI
    Check the prerequisites described above under Prerequisites for Standard
    Scenarios.
    The IDoc adapter is used to receive an IDoc from an SAP back-end system and
    convert it to XML.
    The adapter used to post this XML to an external destination is the plain HTTP
    adapter.
    To set up the communication channel, perform the following steps:
    1. Locate the routing rule in SAP
    Business Connector.
    In the Administration View, choose
    Adapters – Routing to navigate to
    Routing Rules.
    2. Select the details of the relevant routing rule.
    To display the details, choose the green triangle (Edit).
    Transport is typically set to XML and a URL is specified. You can use this
    URL in your SAP XI settings.In some cases, Transport is set to
    B2B Service and the parameters Server Alias, Folder and Service
    exist. This is the same as when Transport is set to XML and has the
    URL http://<serverhost>:<port>/invoke/<folder>/<service>.
    You can find <serverhost> and<port> in the definition of the
    remote server under Settings –>Remote Server in the Administration
    View.
    3. Set up the communication channel in the Integration Directory using the parameters from the SAP BC routing rule.
    Use the following settings:
    • Adapter Type: HTTP Receiver
    • Transport Protocol: HTTP 1.0
    • Message Protocol: XI Payload in HTTP Body
    • Adapter Engine: Integration Server
    • Addressing Type: URL Address
    • Target Host, Service Number,and Path need to be set in accordance with the SAP BC routing rule. HTTP Proxy Host and HTTP Proxy
    Port can be set if required.All other parameters have no corresponding values in SAP BC and should be set to their default values.

                      OR
    You do not need Netweaver 7.2 CE for using NWBC 3.0. You just need netweaver 7.02.
    You simply need to apply enhancement package 2 on your existing 7.01 system to make it 7.02.
    Please refer to installation guides on service marketplace, there you can see the EHP2 installation guides.
    Also, see SAP Note 900000 - Netweaver Business Client - FAQ. This will give you all the details required.

  • HOW COULD CONNECT FROM SAP SYSTEM TO THIRD PARTY JAVA APPLICATION

    HI expects,
            HOW COULD CONNECT FROM SAP SYSTEM TO THIRD PARTY JAVA or . DET APPLICATION.please provide me some scenarios and documents.please help me.

    Hi,
    In the sender side i.e. in SAP system you can use IDoc/RFC/Proxy to push the data to XI.
    IDoc supports only Async communication and in Sync case performace is good using Proxy.
    In the receiver side you can use Java Proxy to connect to the Java application or you can even bulid a webservice over the Java/.Net application and use SOAP adapter to post data to it.
    Thanks

  • HT1444 how to migrate from yosemite beta to full vesion

    Hi
    how to migrate from yosemite beta to full vesion

    When I look in "about this mac" - it says Yosemite 10.10. Do I really need to download it again?
    I found on a blog that someone contacted the Apple service:
    “simply install the final version of the software you are testing when it appears in Software Update” – that means the final version of the beta software you are given to test is what will be made public. So we’re on the same build as what is now in the App Store.
    My compute OSX is 10.10 but build is (14A388b) while some say that app store version is (build 14A389).
    Does it really make a difference? If I don't download it will it continue to update?

  • Migrating from SAP DMS to File Server

    Hi,
    Our client is currently using the SAP DMS to store documents for the EHS module. This has brought with it lot of handicaps.. primarily the huge size of the database. There is an initiative now to move from SAP DMS to a file server where the files would be physically stored whereas the linking would be made via SAP EHS module.
    This effectively means that the things would remain as they were.. only that the specifications in EHS would now be pointing to a new location for its documents.
    My question is whether this is a techinallly feasible solution and second how should the migration be done. keeping in  mind that the linkages should be kept intact.
    Suggestions are solicited... points are guaranteed.
    Thanks!
    Aviroop

    Hi Aviroop,
    Got any idea about how File server works with DMS ?
    I am in urgent need for details about the file server functionality and configuration.
    Can I use a sharepoint site (internet site0 as a file server?
    Pls send me some documents regarding this to my mail id [email protected]

  • How to migrate from exchange 2007 to 2013 step by step tutorials please

    Hi
    I am running Windows Server 2008 standard, with exchange 2007 SP2 on it.
    We have 800 mailbox in total
    Our domain controllers are
     Win2012 R2 and I would like to upgrade to Exchange 2013 on Windows server 2012 R2.
    I am running a VM, on VMware environment, so my Windows 2012 R2 is a VM.
    Is there a website or document that explains in detail, step by step how to upgrade from 2007 to 2013.
    I currently only have 1 exchange server 2007, with all the roles on the one server.  I would like to keep that same as
    well with exchange 2013.
    Thanks

    Exchange server deployment assistant is always a good service provider to achieve this task as it simply ask few questions about your current environment and proceed further accordingly.
    You can refer to this blog explained by technet team that will assist you further to gather more information in depth : http://blogs.technet.com/b/meamcs/archive/2013/07/25/part-1-step-by-step-exchange-2007-to-2013-migration.aspx
    Moreover, to avoid the interruptions and proceed a hassle-free migration from exchange 2007 to 2013, this application (http://www.exchangemigrationtool.com/) could also be a good approach to accomplish
    migration task in more secure way.

  • Data migration from SAP to Oracle

    Can any one suggest best possible method for migrating master and transactional data from SAP to Oracle.
    Please suggest methods to get data in text file from SAP.

    Best approach would be to use Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) outbound from SAP inbound to Oracle. There are two widely used standards in EDI messages - ANSI X12 and EDIFACT; I'm pretty sure the Oracle system will be able to accept one of the two standards or both.
    In my last message, when I asked if Oracle is able to receive and process IDocs, I actually meant if Oracle will be able to accept and process EDI messages. IDocs are containers of the EDI message i.e. a data container - their formats are SAP proprietary formats which will not make sense to your target system (Oracle). EDI has been around for many years and is the standard way of electronically exchanging business documents between computer systems of business partners, using a standard format over a communication network.
    In regards to your question - I'm not really sure if you want to send master/transactional data real-time from SAP to Oracle or want to transfer the historical data i.e. download from SAP tables (thru SE16 - this will download the field labels as well) into text files and then upload it to Oracle by using a custom program which reads/maps the files then posts the transactional data/updates master data tables in Oracle as required by that system. So let me know as much details as possible.
    It would be nice to show appreciation by rewarding points.
    Cheers,
    Sougata.

  • Which one is the best way in migration from sap bpc ms 5.1 to nw7.5

    Hi,
    I am doing Migration project from SAP BPC MS to NW.
    In this which one is the best way migrating By manually or By using SAP Migration tool.
    What are the merits and demarits migrating by manually.
    The data is moving from MS to NW as it is by using sap migration tool.
    Could you please answer my questions as early as possible.

    Hi,
    You would need manual effort anyways. Some of the objects are not either migrated or you need to update manually after the migration. Example, reports have to be modifed and as they may not work due to some of the options.
    Also your packages, script logic etc have to recreated. So its upto you as the migration toosl takes across your appset, applications, dimensions and the master data etc. The manual involvement is inevitable. You need to probably take what the tool allows you to do and make manual corrections for the objects that are not supported.
    Thanks,
    Sreeni

  • Migrating from SAP BW 7.0 to SAP BW 7.4 on HANA

    Hi Gurus
    At present we are having a SAP BW 7.0 system on oracle database. We are planning to move it to HANA. as part of pre-requisites we need to upgrade the BW system to BW 7.3/7.4..After looking up various approaches, we have decided to re-implement BW 7.4 on sap HANA. so we have 2 distinct SAP BW systems - one on Oracle ( Up and running ) and 2nd on SAP HANA (newly build).
    Some of the critical flows will be rebuild in the new server. Just wanted to know that is it possible to transport the flow completely from SAP BW 7.0 on oracle db system to BW 7.4 on HANA db system with the help of a Transport Request ??
    Would you please advise any restrictions or limitations with any functionalities not being operational on newer version on HANA. and whats the best approach to transport and do we need to do any work at DB level ?
    Thanks
