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.

  • How to Access data from SAP Content Server through SAP Portal

    Hi Experts,
    I want to aceess the data from SAP Content server through portal. Currently I am working on LSO business package. The SAP content server should work like Webdav as we uses KM as webdav.
    I am trying to use this URL into the CMS address but it is not working
    http://XXX-XXX-XXXX:1090/ConTentServer/ContentServer.dll?adminContRep&operation=docIdList&contRep=ZADGAS_LSO
    Is there any other procedure for acceesing the DATA  from SAP content server. ?
    Thanks,
    Ahmad

    If your Content Server is being used by DMS, then you can use the DMS Connector for KM.  This connector allows all documents stored in DMS to be accessed in Portal as if they are stored in KM.  For more info see this:

    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.

  • SAP Content Server Upgrade from 6.3 to 6.4 & MaxDB 7.3 to 7.8

    Dear Experts,
    We are in planning of upgrade SAP Content server from 6.3 to 6.4 and MaxDB from 7.3 build 35 to 7.8.
    For Content server upgrade is that we need to install the Content server 6.4 and install the latest MaxDB 7.8 and export and import the data.
    We are on Win 2003 32 Bit and we are migrating to win 2008 R2 64 Bit.
    Is it possible directly using database copy and restoring in MaxDB 7.8 version?
    Or we need to use loadercli for migrating the data.
    As per the SDN Link http://forums.sdn.sap.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1649661
    for content server upgrade is by replacing latest dll files at the respective dir.
    Pls let me know your views and known issues.
    Thank You,

  • Open/edit documents on SAP Content Server from BW?

    Hi guys
    I have been asked to investigate whether this scenario is possible.
    Today we have a SAP Content Server where we save attachments to different kinds of objects. An example could be that we open appropriation request 'S-00123' from IMA11 and attach two different MS Word documents.
    In BW I have created several reports that contain these appropriation requests and we would like to be able to attach/edit the files on the content server from the BW report.
    Is this somehow possible using RRI or some other functionality?
    Might it even be possible by using GoTo --> Documents with the appropriate setup?

  • How to install Apache Web server on my SAP Content Server

    Dear Experts,
    I am in the process of installaing Content Server in my landscape, i am working on Suse Linux 10 SP2 and planning to install ContentServer 6.30.
    I have read the standard SAP installation document for the same and it says that we need to install Apache Web server version 1.3.XX, so i have downloaded the file apache_1.3.27-x86_64-whatever-linux22.tar.
    Now i want to know the following before i take any actions on my further installation of the Content Server
    What is the difference between Apache and httpd servers (services) are they different or same
    Is the file apache_1.3.27-x86_64-whatever-linux22.tar correct to install Web Server on my Linux system
    Do i have to download any other httpd files
    How to install and start the Web server on my Linux
    Waiting for some information
    Thanks and regards
    BasoKing

    You can install a higher apache also (2.2.x), I'd not use the old versions. I'd also not use a "somwhere" compiled apache, you don't now if that version is clean.
    I'd rather compile an own one, it's not that difficult:
    Note 664384 - Generation info for Apache Web server for SAP Content Server
    The result will be a default webserver (httpd) without any unnecessary modules compiled in.

  • How to archive data which is in sap content server

    Hi Experts,
    We are facing issue with data stored in content server. With the time the data which is in content server is increasing and reaching the size limitation of content server. We want to archive data which is already present in content server.
    Is there any stategy for this and how we can archive the data which is already inside sap content server.
    Thanks.
    Regards
    Richa Koolwal

    Thanks Ajay,
    It really helps to ansewer some of my questions.
    I would like to ask some more information for content server to you. As you said content server will allow to increase the database size upto 64TB and advise for the either of the 2 activiteis.
    1. If I shift the data which is old to some other storage, should that storage device be connected to content server.
        e.g If I have decided to store data on some file system I have to connect file system with the content server with the specific driver for file system.
    2. Next you said to install new content server, but as I know content server provide us the facility to connect to various instances of database system if one of the instance reaches its limit of 64 TB, so would it be good to install some other instances of database or the new sap conent server.
    3. Which storage media (File system and Instance of Database) is prefferable in terms of cost and security to enhance the scalability of content server. 
    Thanks.

  • How to save .JPEG Image on SAP CONTENT SERVER?

    Hi
    You can do it but there is one very critical exception to do it depending on the Webserver that you are using :
    1. Is you are using Sunone Webserver then you cannot install multiple instances of CS on the same webserver instance.
    And if using IIS then the only thing that you need to do on the webserver front is to restart the Webserver after the second instance is installed so that the webserver picks up the config entries made for the second instance's install.
    With Apache webserver you will have make the entry in the httpd.conf for the second instance as you had done for the first instance
    Eg for this is :
    This is my first instance:
    LoadModule IdcApacheAuth "D:/oracle/ucm/cs2/shared/os/win32/lib/IdcApache22Auth.dll"
    IdcUserDB cs2 "D:/oracle/ucm/cs2/data/users/userdb.txt"
    Alias /cs2 "D:/oracle/ucm/cs2/weblayout"
    <Location /cs2>
         Allow from all
         Order allow,deny
         DirectoryIndex portal.htm
         IdcSecurity cs2
    </Location>
    This is my second instance:
    LoadModule IdcApacheAuth D:/oracle/ucm/idc1/shared/os/win32/lib/IdcApache22Auth.dll
    IdcUserDB idc1 "D:/oracle/ucm/idc1/data/users/userdb.txt"
    Alias /idc1 "D:/oracle/ucm/idc1/weblayout"
    <Location /idc1>
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
    DirectoryIndex portal.htm
    IdcSecurity idc1

  • How to see documents checked-in to SAP Content Server ?

    Hi ,
      I'm not sure if this is the right forum for this question but I did not find anything more pertinent.
    We have a scenario in ECC 5.0 which we are attaching PDF/etc document to SAP DMS Document records in Tcode CV01N/CV02N . Subsequently we check-in those originals to the SAP Content Server. All this is working just fine as the underlying settings for the content repository in Tcode CSADMIN is appropriately set.
    Is there a way to monitor how many and which documents have been checked in to the SAP COntent server. In the 46C/47 days, we used to go to Tcode OAAD and get a count & list of all documents that have been shipped to a content repository. In the scenario for SAP Content server, I'm unable to use this tcode to get the information.
    Is there another tcode that will give me the information on the documents linked to the Content Server ?
    Your help is greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,

  • 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.
