Install BI Content on Test and Transport

Hi,
how do you make sure that something that works on your testsystem will also work on the
production system? For example if I install some objects from BI Content, and everything works fine on the test system, and now I transport these few installed objects on production system how do I know if everything else was transported before?
I mean I can compare both systems, but then I have to check each object on test and production system
to know if everything was transported before...Am I wrong?
Thanks
alto

Hi,
If it is already live system then you have to compare each object with production system .

Including Content fromtext file and transporting

Hi all,
my requirement is to include content from a text file into a transport request and transport to required client,but when i create a new transport request i dont find any option to include the contents of my text file into the request..plz help mee.
i have to tranport these bcos they are needed for some configuration in SolutionManager.
the below is the description given in marketplace which i am pasting here..
Create a new transport request (transaction SE09) in the source client of your Solution Manager system. Unpack the SOLMAN40_MOPZ_TTYP_SLMO_000.zip file from the attachment to this note. Copy the contents of the SOLMAN40_MOPZ_TTYP_SLMO_000.txt file into the transport request. Use transaction SCC1 to import the transport request into your Solution Manager client.
rgds,
Anand

Dear Anand,
Firstly you need to create an Transport Request using transaction SE01 / SE09.
To include objects of your choice in a request, proceed as follows:
Position the cursor on a modifiable request.
Choose Request/task --> Include objects
The Include Objects in Request <Request Number> dialog box appears.
In the dialog box, select Freely selected objects and continue by choosing Copy.
The Object Selection screen appears.
Enter your selection criteria and choose Execute.
The objects found are displayed in a hierarchical overview.
In the list, select the objects that you want to include.
Choose Objects --> Save in request.
Hope this information helps.

Instal Oracle Portal for testing and learning purpose on 2 machines

I have two PCs. One is runing Windows XP, one Linux Fedora Core 4. I'd like to usem them for geting to know Oracle Portal. Linux as Aplication Server, Win as DB server.
I can't seem to find minimum HW requirements for Portal. Linux machine is 256MB RAM, Pentium II 350 MHz. As I said, it doesn't have to run fast. it just has to run for the beggining. Then I can decide whether to use it and think of the real configuration for business purposes.
Please advise.

RAM requirement for Infrastructure is 1GB - this included an Oracle 10G database for identity management. RAM requirement for Middle Tier (Portal and Wireless) is an additional 1GB.
Requirements to run both on one host is (according to Oracle) 1.5GB.
I have it all on a single host here (SuSE Linux Enterprise Server 9) with only 1GB ram (It's an Athlon 1.4) so there is some flexibility here. You may get away with the CPU, but I think you need a lot more RAM.
Your athlon Windows Machine could do it all. I have a working 10G Application Server on a 2GHz Pentium M laptop (2 GB RAM). If you don't start it up automatically every time the OS starts then you will have plenty of resources.
Since 10G AS also includes 10G DB then only one machine is all you would need.
Good luck

BI 7.0 Installing Business Content

Can anyone tell me the steps that are required to activate business content in BI 7.0?
Thank You

Hi SRX,
If you use only the ABAP components of an SAP NetWeaver stack, you should use the standard process to implement, configure and activate BI content. For more information, see http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/e3/e60138fede083de10000009b38f8cf/frameset.htm ® Data Warehousing ® Data Warehouse Management ® Business Content (Versions).
1. You download and update SAP Solution Manager content.
2. In SAP Solution Manager, you select your business scenario.
3. In SAP Solution Manager, you adapt your business scenario.
4. In the software lifecycle manager (part of usage type AS Java), you check your IT landscape for required products.
5. In the software lifecycle manager, you check your IT landscape for required content software components.
6. In the Administrator Workbench (part of usage type BI) or Portal Content Studio (part of usage type EP), you install any missing business content shipment units.
7. In SAP Solution Manager, you generate a configuration task list.
8. In the Administrator Workbench or Portal Content Studio, you configure content objects.
9. In the Administrator Workbench or Portal Content Studio, you activate selected content objects.
10. You test and transport your changes.

Error installing business content

Hi Experts,
i am getting an error while installing business content for sales and distribution.
i.e-The creation of the export DataSource failed,
The metadata for a DataSource must be created while the export InfoSouce is being generated. An error occurred at that time.
could any body help.

Hi
The DS should be Activated at R/3 to Install the Business Content on BI side.
Recheck the same with the following
R/3
RSA5--Activate the Data Source -- (RSA6 -- Transport the Data Source -- required if you want to replicate on BI Side)
BI Side
Business Content -- Install the same with required grouping conditions (Only necessary objects would be best option)

Developing Roles and transport strategy.

Hello,
I need to finalize the Role development Plan.
I am not sure where do we built , test and transport roles to production.
I am thinking of developing roles in development in dev in a seperate clint . This clint will be copy of golde client.
Then this roles will be tested in quality and finally send to production.
Hence forth any changed to role will go thourh same cycle.
Please suggest !!!

>There are some things which you cannot add into roles if they are not set up (responsibility area heirachies, profit centre groups etc) so you need to ensure that non-transportable config is also made in your security client.
Thats a imp point th to my that you have bought to my notice. Are there any coustomizing such no range and stuff that can not be transported?
I wonder if its the case then all coustomizinf will be need to be done in QUA and PRD system seperately as well.
Also one thing i would like to mention is that I am trying to avoid development of roles on Actual devement client cause I am afraid of hamppering the coustoming data which developing roles . Cause most of my development of roles will take place by trial and error method .
So I am aprehensive to use development cline and find alternatives

Install single package from testing

I just switched to Arch from Gentoo, and so far it's been mostly great. What I want to do right now is install 1 package from testing, and only that one. Is there an easy way to do this, besides uncommenting the testing repo, installing xorg-server, and commenting testing again? Basically (if you're familiar with Gentoo and emerge), I want to know what pacman's equivalent to /etc/portage/package.keywords is. Alternatively, if there's a way to make kde4 not absurdly slow with a relatively new ultra-low-end nvidia card (9300m), then I'm up for that as well. Additional background for this question is that I was hoping the newest (beta) drivers might alleviate this issue, but they depend on an xorg-server version that only exists in testing. I don't want to run testing, but if the new drivers help, then I'd be willing to run them (along with any reasonable, if unstable, dependencies). Thanks in advance.

Welcome to the forums.
If you upgrade only xorg-server, you're going to have problems. There are other packages designed to be used with it.
With that being said, you can always put testing as the last repo in /etc/pacman.conf. Then if you want to upgrade one package, you explicitly call it with pacman -S testing/<package_name>.

Installing Business Content directly in QA and PRD or transport it ?

Hello,
We have been running a SAP BW Lanscapce (7.01 SPS7) for over two years.
We have recently applied to our BW Landscace an additional add-on ; SAP SuPM (Sustainability Performance Management 2.0)
Several thousands of new objects are delivered and we need to install the SUPM Business Content.
A specific BC installation procedure is described in the installation guide, use the report report RSO_BC_INSTALL_ALL and not the transaction RSORBCT.
I intended to activate the SUPM Business Content directlly in DEV then QAS then PRD, as we did when we initially installed tthe three systems.
The develpent team would prefer to tranfor the transport the newly installed objects fronm DEV to QAS and PRD. They told me that activating directly the BC in QAS and PRD might cause issue for certain objects like transformations. During activation certain objects receive a unique ID hence receiving a different ID in each system. This would mean that we wonu2019t be able to transport changes to these objects from dev and that each change would need to be applied directly in each system which is not acceptable.
I am not confortable transporting thousands of new objects (even if they are collected in the same transport requests) from DEV to QAS and PRD.
What are you suggestions ? HAve you already been confroncted to the same problem, having to install thousands of new Business Content objects on an existing BW system ?
Thank you for your attention
Best Regards

Hi Shiro,
There is one important thing that you should note down is, if you directly install the contents in production system and something goes wrong due to customization or any other thing then there is risk of recovering it and being production system I would say not to do that.
Where as if you install the contents in development then you will have chance to do the unit testing properly and then send the contents to quality and prod after testing and modifications if required. The risk of failure with transport is very less if the transports are moved in correct sequence.

Durgesh.

Probelms while replicating Data Source and transport into test system

I find the following error messages whilre transporting into test system.
DataSource 0EC_PCA_1 does not exist in source system of version A.
Mapping between data source 0EC_PCA_1 and source system is inconsistent.
DataSource 0EC_PCA_1 does not exist in source system of version A.
Field AFABE will not be delivered from DataSource 0EC_PCA_1 in source system.
any ideas please..........
Enhanced the Extract structure and activated the data source in Source system
Replicate the Data source in BI and install the Infosource through BI Content activated and transport them to Test system.

Hi,
1.First transport the data source from R/3 dev to R/3 quality
2.Replicate the data source in BI Quality ( make sure you that in the data source tab, you are searching the data source below the appropriate source system ---otherwise you data source may not appear)
3.goto rsd1in BI development for activataing the info objects which you have added extra in the info source (z info objects )
activate these info objects and collect in another request
4.transport these info objects from BI dev to BI quality
5.transport entire data source to bw quality.
Thanks,
Tarun Brijwani.

Installing Business Content and Merge - Overwrites InfoSource - Very Urgent

Hi Gurus,
I was installing Business Content for a Cube with the grouping Data flow before using Merge/Copy option in DEV.
The cube got activated and all the objects associated with it. What I didn't realize was that the InfoSource used for the DSO of the cube was also used by a custom DSO which has already been deployed in QA.
So the transfer rules were only partially maintained and the content InfoSource merged with the active one. The DataSource for the custom DSO is from QA (a different R/3 from DEV R/3). The issue is that the custom DSO in QA is now linked to the installed (new) InfoSource belonging to the DataSource of the DEV R/3.
Please kindly guide on:
1. How to change the InfoSource for the custom DSO from the currently installed one to the original one? Can I deactivate the update rules and create new InfoSource and transfer rules for the custom DSO and transport it again to QA?
2. What are the implications this might have on the newly installed DSO & Cube?
All answers will be suitably rewarded.
Thanks,
Swetha

Hi Swetha,
I am not too sure, if i understood ur problem correctly but,
If your BI QAS system is still good.. that means ur custom DSO is still linked to old version of Infosource in BI QAS.
The talk to ur BASIS guys and ask them to transport the Insource/Transfer Structure from BI QAS system to BI Dev system.
This can be done by creating a transport in BI QAS system, the type of transport should be Transport of Copies.
and also before importing this Trasnport from BI QAS in BI Dev System maintain an entry in BI Dev system RSA1>Tools>Conversion of Logical System names and put an entry as Source = ur BI QAS Logical System Name and target as ur BI Dev Logical System name.
Cheers

Content model and transport in system using different repository

Hi experts,
In our development environment, we generated a content model for incoming post document
storing in a content server.
As the content model have been generated for this specific repository, I assume that this content model
will not work properly in an other environment using a different repository if we transport it. Am I correct?
Is it possible to change directly the content model assignment to a new repository in the target environment?
Or we have to generate a new content model in the target system using the initial content model as a template and assigning the
correct repository? In this case, we will have to maintain each content model in all the differents environments...
What are the best practises to handle this situation?
Thanks in advance for your help !
Regards
Frédéric

Dear Frederic,
It is possible to transport such model. You will just need to change the setting of the storage category to point to the new content server in the new system- transaction OACT. Storage category is attribute called STORAGE_CAT in the virtual PHIO class of the content model( ends with **V).
Please note that the content model should be transported in its creation language.
Best Regards,
Pragya

How to test and develop the HTML/Backbone custom content viewer on IPad?

Hi
I have been tasked with developing and amending the HTML/Backbone custom content viewer as nicely detailed and explained by Derek Lu here:
https://www.adobe.com/devnet/digitalpublishingsuite/articles/html-default-library.html#
I can see that by removing the reference to libs/AdobeLibraryAPI.js in Index.html i am able to "test" on the desktop.

and that data is bought in via the fulfilment XML feed and the parse method is called on Librarycollection.
I have made the changes to hook up the viewer to bring in some folios that we are developing.
However, although this provides the ability to test and develop on the desktop in one form since we are using JS and Backbone, there are various checks within the provided code to see if ADOBE.isAPIAvailable.
If it is, then the behaviour is different than on the desktop, so once the viewer is packaged up and put on the IPad there is disparity between what you were able to check and test on the desktop version against what is shown on the IPad.
The question therefore is... is there a quick way to develop and test on the Ipad ... it doesnt seem like a viable option to develop blindly on the desktop and then package up the content viewer within Adobe DPS to check how those changes behave on the IPad?
To re-iterate the viewer is to make use of backbone / js example to provide greater functionality and options for customisation.
Thanks in anticipation.
Dave

Thankyou for taking the time to respond and for providing such detailed articles on adobe dps development, it is much appreciated.
I had completely missed that article and was struggling to find anything useful from googling!
