How to setup a BW test system?

Hi
We are having R/3 and now we are planning to install BW. Now a few questions are coming to us like...
1. In what cases we need a test system? Can we bypass test system and have development and productive system only?
2. How to setup a test system? Should we reload data from R/3 test system or can it be sourced from BW Productive system (in order to get more historical data)?
3. Has anybody setup a test system and loaded data from BW Productive system before?
Any suggestions will be highly appreciated.
Regards,
Pundit

Hi Arjun,
It is depends on client, for eg:say if client follows Sixsigma processes, then give much importance on Quality. So in this scenario it becomes much clear to have Quality box, If for other clients who don't have much Quality processes in place. you can take up the Quality (test) in Development box itself.
And it also depends on data you want have test on. For some clients they move much of their historical data for testing purpose..
Also some clients mainatain all 3 boxes(Dev,QA & Prod.)in sink..so that it would be easy for any changes or whatsoever.
Hope this helps...

How to setup the local testing server ??

hello, what do I need to install first before I can setup the
testing server in dreamweaver 8? I have download apache2 triad,
mySQL, IIS 6...
Where should I download the correct version of mySQL because
I need to test my php scripts locally which has something to do
with database?
How do I configure these on the testing server setup
Connection Name - what should I input here?
MySQL Server - and this?
Username - where do I get one?
Password - where do I get one?
Database - gets an error saying "HTTP error code 404...
1) There is no testing server running on the server machine.
2)The testing server specified for this site does not map to

Please Help.. Thanks in advance!

I have never heard of apache2triad, but I've just had a look
at the
apache2triad site, which says: "It is recommended that only
experienced
users, with a vast knowledge of how networks, and its
components (Apache
Web Server, ect.) should install this software. It IS NOT
your average
software; a lot of time, patience and effort are required to
maintain
such a server."
Setting up a local testing server is not difficult, but it
does require
a basic understanding of how a server-side language like PHP
works.
As I said before, you must always store your files in the web
server
document root. According to the apache2triad documentation,
this is C:
\apache2triad\htdocs\. Unless you store your files there, or
in a
subfolder of htdocs, nothing will work.

How many licenses - Production and test systems

Sorry if posting in the wrong forum:
I need to purchase Adobe coldfusion enterprise 8 for use on a production server. Developers will also need this installed on a QA(TEST) server. Question is, can we install one version on both servers or do we need to purchase a license for each? Thanks for any guidance.

My word does not trump what ever an Adobe Representative will tell you when you contact them.
But yes. If you want two servers set up in which more then two users can connect, then you need to license both servers.
Some ways around this, that may or may not work for you.
The developer license of CF is free. This allows for ColdFusion to be installed on a developer's workstation and will allow two remote IP addresses to connect to it after each start of the ColdFusion service|dameon.
The Enterprise server allows for multipe ColdFusion instances to be running on a single physical server. Each instance gets it's very own completly sperate configuration and memory space. It would be possible to set up one instance to be used as the QA server and another to be used as the production server.
But for real answers you need to talk to a ColdFusion representative at Adobe. Just know that is NOT the generic sales person one gets by calling the normal Adobe support | sales numbers. At least they have not been historically.

How can I handle deploying multiple test systems on the same PC that have been developed using different versions of LabVIEW, TestStand, and/or Switch Executive?

The major issue here is that the test systems must be documented and validated before being released to the production floor. Given this if a test station has multiple test systems deployed on it that have been developed on various versions of LV, TS, and Switch exec how can I force the test system selected to use the correct versions of TS, LV, and Switch exec.? I understand that the solution would be to recomplie everything and bring them up to the latest version but that would then require re-validation according to the QA department. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
It would be nice if theTS deployment was more like an LV executable... meaning when a LV executable is launched it always knows what LV runtime engine to use when there are multiple engines installed on a PC.

Hi,
Multiply versions of teststand can reside on the same system, but only one version can run at a time. They is a utility that has to be run to set the active version.
The SequenceFiles have a version number, and you will find an error will be generate if you try to Load the sequencefile in the wrong version of TestStand.
The labview VIs will only work providing the correct version of the RTE is also installed on your system, even a labview executabe requires the correct RTE to be installed, either as part of the executable installation or as a seperate installation, before the labview exe will work correctly.
I'm not fimilar with the Switch exec but I would expect that it will also require the correct lower level device drivers to be available for the version you are using.
Therefore, as you are indicating that some of your system are at a older version, its difficult to image how you could achive this, considering if you say you have different versions of the software(s). For a start, you may have the problem that newer code/ sequencefiles using additional functionatily not available in the older versions.
I would think your only solution would be to have different deployments covering the different versions you have, or at least bring all your test systems up to the same version of teststand.

Test System

Hy all!
Does anyone know how to get a local test system where I can access some standard BAPIs?
I already downloaded NetWeaver Trial, but it isn't possible for me to access the server via SAPGUI. No systems are listed in the combo-box.
Is there a kind of free SAP test system available that I can install local and do some BAPI access?
Thanks!

TMS - step-by-step example on how to setup and test TMS

I have installed ECC6 (AS ABAP) on NW2004s on Oracle, Windows platform. This is a 1-system landscape.
I would like to work hands-on with Transport Management System(TMS). I have read the theory part.
I need a document that shows how to setup a test TMS (transport route, package e.t.c.) , create a test transport, export and import the test transport in a 1-system landscape?
I'm looking for a simple test case that will help me understand TMS.
Thanks

Hi,
For single system landscape..
Go 000, DDIC ... STMS--> here it will ask for domain controller -- give self domain ---> Domain controller has been assigned .
Now again goto STMS> System overview>SAP SYSTEM >Create ->Virtual system- give name V<SID>
till this point your domain controller is created and virtual system is created .Next our aim is to setup STMS
again goto STMS>transport routes> change > configuration>statndard configuration ---> select second option (development and productino System ) because here your dev system will your own system and virtual system would be production system .
---> pop up will come -> give DEV - SID and Productino SID- it willl automatically create the route .
Save this and exit.
This way We can set single system landscape.
Thanks and Regards,

How do CVI7.0 runtime engine and TestStand3.0 runtime engine work in a test system?

I developed code modules from CVI 7.0, and test sequence from TestStand 3.0. Now I want to deploy all to a test system. Should I create distribution kits for CVI and TestStand, and install to a target PC? Do each kit include the RTE? How do the runtime engine work in a system?

hp7550,
I saw your post earlier entitled "what is a run-time engine?". It looks like this post is addressing the same issue.
To answer your questions, it is not necessary to create a distribution kit for your CVI code modules. You can simply install the CVI Run-time Engine, which you can find if you go to www.ni.com and click on the Drivers and Updates link on the left-hand side.
Then you will need to deploy your TestStand system using Tools >> Deploy TestStand System in the Sequence Editor. That tool will go out and gather all the CVI code modules your sequence calls - unless you are calling a DLL or something dynamically inside of a code module; in which case, you need to add that dynamically called DLL (or code module) to your TestStand workspace.
To install the TestStand Run-time Engine, make sure the Install TestStand Engine option is checked on the Installer Options tab of the deployment utility. You can customize what gets installed with the engine by clicking on the Engine Options.
For more information on deployment, see Chapter 14 of the TestStand Reference manual (Help >> Search the TestStand Bookshelf...).
To answer your last question a run-time engine simply gives you access to the compiled code that corresponds to the functions you used from the CVI or TestStand libraries during development.
I hope that helps.

How to instal/set UWL in order to test WF functionality also on test system

I am replacing colleague who is on hollydays.
I am pritty new in EP area. We have integrated ESS functionality with some approval workflows.
WF guy told me I have to maintain the UWL on test system as this one can not communicate with test backend system.
So far I created iviews with SAP transactions(and one with URL), page workset and a test role on an brand new system enironment consisting of an ides ecc on an freshly installed EP system.
On old test EP I am very confused (maybe because of ESS package). Other confusing thing is that on this EP system I can not add e.g an i.view(there I can not as "No templates to display. You are not assigned to any existing templates.").
So my question would be :
1.How to instal/set UWL (so that workflows can be tested on test environment i.e. old test system with ESS package in connection with backend
2.How could I get reed of "No templates to display. You are not assigned to any existing templates." message(espetially if this has any impact on qustion 1.)
Thank you in advance for your imout

Urgent:: How to transport customer exit from dev to test system?

Hi,
We have created a Customer exit in our development system in the $tmp package, and we want to transport it to our test system. Can you please tell us how to proceed on this. We are not able to change the package as our package is a development package and so does not start with Y or Z.
Best Regards,
Charu.

Your package is RSR right.. this is the package for the function group XRSR where in this user exit exists.
you need to have a separate development class either starting with Y or Z. If not, ask any developer or your sap basis team to create one for you. then you can assign this development class to your user exit.
To check this, go to SE38 - enter your program name ZXRSRU01, display, in the menu "goto", CHECK "object Directory entry", you should have this development class.
Hope this helps.

How to test System Alias

Hello,
How can I test a R3 system alias?
- System Landscape Cockpit did not bring any results.
- Support Desk >> SAP application requires transaction.
Is there an easier way?
Regards,
AAAttar

Thanks Senthil for the details,
We are on EP6 SP2 at this point. Standalone (DEV) portal installation, and SAP Dedicated system (not Load-Balanced, ie No message server). I've create a test system to SAP_BW, with WAS info. When I tried to test the system in Landscape Cockpit, (selected the test SAP_BW system and JCO) I got NO results. I hope I'm not missing a thing.
Few hours later, I created SAP role trasfer iview for testing, and this is what I got for this SAP_BW Alias:
[The installed version of the portal plug-in must be 6.0 or higher], pretty obvious!
For the other system I got, [Connect to SAP gateway failed Connect_PM GWHOST=http://FQN.com:3200, GWSERV=sapgw00, ASHOST=http://FQN.com:3200, SYSNR=00 LOCATION    CPIC (TCP/IP) on local host ERROR       hostname 'http://FQN.com:3200' unknown TIME        Sat Dec 4 17:03:39 2004 RELEASE     620 COMPONENT   NI (network interface) VERSION     36 RC          -2 MODULE      nixxi_r_mt.c LINE        2225 DETAIL      NiIHostToAddr COUNTER     6]

How to deploy the application into Test system in NWDI

Hi ,all
i hava some problems about NWDI, Could you help me ?
I hava defined the test system in runtime system of NWDI .
As a general ,it must be deploy the application into test system for test before transport the CR, is it right?
if so , how can i do to deploy the application into test system before assembly?
regards.

Hi Zhijun,
Thank you for your repay.
You are welcome
After assembly , can i deploy the application into test system by CMS? mean that if it can be done not through CR?
Yes, you import the changes on the "Test" tab of the transport studio of the CMS webui. This will deploy the changes to Test (to the system you have specified in the runtime system configuration for this track)
and what is the benefit of Dev system and Con system
See the guide: http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/b6/e6b9fc9ec00f4ca4a0d3e0645e87b5/frameset.htm
