Import and Syndication

Hi all
Can anyone tell me what the issues (if any) might be is we run and import process and syndication process simultaneously, provided of course that the  data selection  for syndication is not the data being imported

It has been our experience that one process will hold up the other.  For example, we have been doing many imports and syndications as part of our set up and have done fairly large imports as well. During these imports, my syndicator will show at the bottom "please wait while the server performs an operation on behalf of 'USER' on 'MACHINE'". Once that process is completed, it will perform the next process in the queue.  Hope this helps.

  • Import and Syndication maps - change in XSD

    HI All,
    Can any one let me know are these are correct if it is then are there any work around solutions?
    We created manually Import and syndication maps.. fine..After few days we changed data type/deleted the filed/added new fields.... In all these above incidents do we need to recreate import and syndication maps????
    There is no other work around for this ??
    2) Even if there is no change in Repository structure but change in import or syndication XSD do we need to recreate all import and syndication maps???
    Your inputs are really helpful.
    Thanks
    Rajeev

    HI Rajeev,
    So for any change in the MDM repository Import maps and syndication maps are not needed to recreate from scrach right?
    For minor changes like field add there is no need.For changes involving deletion of mapped fields,changing types of already mapped fields,deleting mapped tables,one should first unmap the current map and then carry out structural changes.Later one can remap them again,this is to avoid maps from getting corrupt.
    If there is any change in the XSD then there is a possibility to recreate the map from scrach??
    Yes
    Do Update XML schema option avaliable only in MDM 7.1?? not in 5.5?
    Yes
    A good description and usage is given by Aamir here Update of XML syndication map when XSD is changed
    One more thing want to clear : I created a scheme and assigned the XSD.. Now when I created the port I am unable to assing the schema like I do for import map??? then what is the use of XSD schema for outbbound??
    Seems you are not using in the way it is supposed to.the exact usage and defining what feature is available with which port is mentioned in pg no 356 of Console guide.
    What is the usual method of import XSD and Outbound XSD?? Do Source and Target systems provide XSDs to MDM or MDM provides to Source and Target Systems?
    For Standard contents SAP provides ready made xsds.
    It is important to note that xsds are only to make MDM and other system understand the xml so they should be same.
    To do this you can use Altova tool to create xsds based on your xml,also PI can help you do the same.
    You can create xsd with PI for other idoc type too.
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks,

  • Regarding MDM Import and Syndication Server

    Hi,
    I have earlier worked in MDM Import Server.
    Today, I successfully did MDM Syndication by
    MDM Syndicator.
    Now, the point is I need to do Import and Syndication
    by MDM Import Server and MDM Syndication Server.
    The MDM Version is 5.5.
    Now, the point is under my installed directory:
    F:\MDM SERVER\Server
    in mds.ini file:
    I need to give the following path:
    Distribution Root Dir=F:\MDMSER~1\Server\Distributions\
    I think other than these I don't have to do any configuration
    in mdis.ini or mdss.ini.
    Also, I have already inbound and outbound ports made and linked
    to inbound and outbound maps.
    Is there any more configuration needed?
    Regards
    Neha Singh

    Hi Neha,
    There are many configuration needed to complete the Automatic import and syndication using MDIS and MDSS.

  • Setup interval on Import and Syndication server in 7.1

    Hello Experts:
    I am upgrading MDM from 5.5 to 7.1; I am having issues with Import Server picking up files from Ready folder, and Syndication Server creating the files on Ready Folder. 
    1. I checked Console, and both ports, Inbound and Outbound, are setup as Automatic.
    2. I restarted both servers
    The files are still on the ready folder for Import Server, and Syndication is not creating the file.
    1. Do you know what else can I check to make this process automatic?
    2. Do you know where, in 7.1, can I check the interval? I used to check it on the mdis.ini file, but I cannot find it in 7.1.
    Thank you for your help,
    Claudia Hardeman

    Hi claudia,
    check the below points:
    1) Manually you can import and symdicate those files through import manager and syndicate manager its works fine, then PI not picked those files from ready folder, check the communication channel of receiver and sender systems.
    2) files having some special characters (like ", ' etc.) MDM is not supported to special characters.
    3)check the MDM server running and repository loaded or not.

    Bhupal.

  • Scheduling Imports and Syndication

    Hello Experts,
    Is it possible to schedule Importing?
    If so can we do it Thrice a day in a stipulated time?
    weekly?
    monthly?
    I am sure that syndication can be scheduled by placing it in Work flow(on record import, update, delete)
    And by making the outbound port hourly, daily, weekly.
    Can we schedule Syndication Monthly?
    Kind Regards
    Eva

    Hi Eva,
    How can we include an Import proces in MDM wf!!!
    In Data Manager, Once you have done with your design of mdm workflow, set workflow property Trigger Action = Record Import and set Autolaunch = immediate. But as you are looking for Scheduling import, I am not sure as i have not tried it so I would suggest just check and try with Autolaunch =  Threshold and  set Max Records = 1000 & Max Time = 3 days if it gives you desired result.
    In import Manager, import map for which you want to set it. Go to configuration options--> set the property Checkout/Workflow = Workflow name from the drop down which you created in data manager and then save the map.  So whenever record import for this map it will go through this mdm workflow.
    PI/XI is also a good approach to control the import timing.
    As you are looking for Import Scheduling thrice a day.
    I feel that as soon as files comes to your ready folder port, files get imported to MDM if your Import Server is running. So in this case you can create another folder say initial backup import where you should contain import files and with the help of scripting language/scheduler, you should move files from this folder to ready folder after every three days.
    Can we schedule Syndication Monthly?
    You can make use of JAVA APIs and run a batch job to schedule it monthly.
    Please refer these below threads for more details:
    1. Java API : Syndication
    2. Call a Java API via Unix Script

  • How do i update & test import maps and syndication maps?

    HI,
    Can anyone guide me/ let me know the steps - how do i update & test import maps & syndication maps during upgrade in development system>
    Regards,
    Harmony

    Hello Harmony
    Different service packs SAP MDM 7.1 supprot the same Syndication and Import map format.
    For Import map is updating you can use Import manager
    For syndication map is updating - Syndicator
    If your syndication and import map have been saved into repository just archive repository from your source landscape and unarchive it in destination.
    If your syndication and import map haven't been saved  in repository.
    Exporting your maps to xml(syndication maps from syndicator and import maps from Import Manager) before migration and importing it to new repository.
    According updating(modification) repository structure:
    For Import map is updating you can use Import manager
    For syndication map is updating - Syndicator
    Another way(very exotic) - make changes in exported xml maps.
    That's all

  • Steps to configure Import Server and Syndication server

    Hi,
       Can some one help me to work on Import Server and Syndication server. I know there are few forums availabe on this topic but they are not very basic. I need to know the basic step(From installation to automatic transfer of data.) to work on Import <b>Serve</b>r and Syndication <b>Server</b>.
    Regards,
    Ron
    Message was edited by:
            Ron

    Hi Ron,
    The MDM Import Server is a background process (service), which separates the core processing of master data imports from the front-end processing. MDM Import Server allows you to load master data records periodically from various
    client systems to various MDM Servers and repositories based on the port concept.
    Once the data is delivered by SAP XI on a specific port, it will automatically get picked within a configurable time interval and queued up for import processing.
    MDM Import Server creates log files of the entire load process, which are stored
    in the port folder Log and can be displayed in MDM Console.
    If an error occurs in the automated import, the MDM Import Server stops and
    drops the XML in the Exception folder of the port. You can import the XML
    interactively using the MDM Import Manager and correct the error (for example
    complete the import map).
    Hope this might help....
    thanks
    Alexander
    P.S. Kindly reward the points, if found helpful.

  • Import and Syndicate Server Configuration

    Hi All,
    Is it possible to setup the time interval in Import and Syndicator, with specific to one repository.
    For example, if i have one repository, for which the import has to run every 30 mins, and for another if it has to run every 3 mins.
    Is it possibel to do it?.
    Same for syndicator as well?
    Thanks,
    Priya.

    Hello Priya,
    This is possible in MDM 7.1 without PI .
    1. For MDSS, there is a repository level MDSS.ini configuration setting for such a delay
    From the MDM 7.1 Console Reference Guide:"
    Auto Syndication Task Delay= (seconds) .
    Integer.The number of seconds MDSSu2019s automatic syndication task waits after syndicating to all ports associated with the repository. Value copied from the corresponding property in MDM Console
    2. With MDIS it is a bit more complicated as MDIS is able to process in chunks of data.
    Therefore you are able to define the delay between chunks
    From the MDM 7.1 Console Reference Guide:"
    Inter-Chunk Delay= (MS)
    Integer. The number of milliseconds MDIS waits between processing chunks of records to allow other clients access to MDS.
    These are all explained in the Console reference guide.
    I advise you to read the appropriate sections.
    Regards,
    Hedda Cohen.

    I can get down as far as step 11 but it shows nothing about upper filters and when I type on "If the Upper Filters entry is missing follow these instructions" nothing happens
    Do you mean you can't see the instructions on what to do if there is no UpperFilters entry?
    If so, here's the relevant instructions for that step:
    On the right side of the Registry Editor window, right-click the UpperFilters entry and choose Modify from the shortcut menu.
    Right-click the empty white space within the right-hand portion of the Registry Editor window. From the shortcut menu, choose New > Multi-String Value.
    Name this new value "UpperFilters" (without the quotes). Then, right-click the newly created UpperFilters entry and choose Modify from the shortcut menu.

  • What is the difference between import and merge?

    When setting up my wife's new account on my son's MBP, I did not migrate all of her photos as they were in 2 or 3 separate iPhoto Libraries.  I researched this forum and found the best way to merge all of her libraries is to buy iPLM.  According to a post by Terence Devlin, if I don't use iPLM, thumbnails, previous editing, keywords, etc., will not be imported.  OK, but if we only want the originals photos and there was no editing or ratings or keywords, can't we just use the "Import" feature?
    According to Apple's instructions, the way to import one library is to first switch iPhoto to open using that library (hold down the option key when opeining iPhoto and selecting that Library).  Select your photo's, and the go to File>Export.  Then quit iPhoto and switch to the new iPhoto Library and go to File>Import and select the file that was made during the Export.  I suspect this is the approved method if you are not concerned with importing the edited photo's, keywords, etc.  Is this correct?
    I recognize from LarryHN's posts why you can no longer just drag and drop the files using the Finder, but if we don't use iPLM, I wanted to make sure I use the correct method to combine Libraries.
    BTW, speaking of using the Finder, do any of you remember the Multi-Finder?

    Yes that's correct. Remember you are not importing libraries or merging them or combining. You're exporting from one and then importing those exports to the other. That's getting the photos from one to the Finder. Then importing them.

  • Problem with Import and Export Data Wizard

    Downloaded and installed SQL Server Express 2008 R2 today because I want to explore how Access interacts with SQL Server (using my home computer). I'm using Access 2010 (under Windows 7), so the 2008 version of SQL Server Express seemed to be the version
    to use.
    After a couple of false starts, installation appeared to go okay. After the installation. My Start menu listed Microsoft SQL Server 2008 and Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2. The latter listed Import and Export Data (64-bit). When I clicked that, the first Import
    and Export Data Wizard page was displayed. I wasn't ready at that time to explore the wizard, so I closed it. An hour or so later I again attempted to open the Import and Export Data wizard. This time, the wizard didn't open. Instead this error message was
    displayed: "The SSIS Runtime object could not be created. Verify that DTS.dll is available and registered."
    I found DTS.dll on my computer at C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\100\DTS\Binn, so the file is available, but don't know whether it is registered.
    How can I correct this problem?

    First can you please post all log file errors
    >> I can't really give you a solution or specific recommendation since I did not saw this error yet myself, but on your own risk you can try:
    1. You may try to just register 'dts.dll' using regsvr32.exe, but this error may indicate a bigger problem with setup.
    If you are running SQL Server 64bit then try running this at the command prompt: %windir%\syswow64\regsvr32 "%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Microsoft SQL Server\90\dts\binn\dts.dll"
    2. You can try reinstall from start (In this case you have to make sure that you un-install all)

  • Problem with importing and creating self signed SSL certificate

    Mac Pro, 10.7.2 Server.  Attempting to import or create a self signed certificate for use as ichat.domain.com to encrypt iChat service.  Server is acutally called server.domain.com but has an alias of ichat.domain.com.  I understand that this is probably not best practice but I would like to keep things this way since we have one server, run multiple services on it, but want to continue to connect to each service at SERVICE.domain.com.  We have been using this type of mismatched certificate with success since 10.4 or so.
    I am working through setup of 10.7 Server to replace our 10.6 server. 
    Tried upgrade of 10.6 to 10.7 installation.  The installation made a mess of some services and our Open Directory, but did move the certificate over and allowed iChat service to function properly.
    Clean install and setup of 10.7 Server.  Exported self signed certificate, private key, and encryption password from 10.6 Server and functioning 10.7 upgraded Server.
    On import or manual creation of certificate get the following error:
    Error
    Check your server's logs for more information.  The error (code 5001) was: Expected SecKeychainItemImport to return a SecIdentityRef, but it did not
    Log shows:
    Dec 29 17:56:55 server servermgrd[498]: -[CertsRequestHandler(HelperAdditions) importP12Data:passphrase:error:]: importedItems = (
                  "<SecCertificate 0x7fcf6ed43c00 [0x7fff78d96f40]>"
    I have tried importing and manually creating other certificates with a variety of names with success.  I assume that there is something buried somewhere that is causing this particular one to be a problem.  Other than manually removing any remnants of the certificate from /etc/certficates I do not have any ideas what to try.  I am essentially ready to move this server to 10.7 except for this problem and would like to avoid a reinstall.
    Suggestions?
