Is it possible to do portal content transports through System landscape?

Hello,
In order to transport content from portal A to portal B I am currently using transport packages: export the content from portal A, download it to the local PC and import it to portal B. The process is working OK but I still have a question:
SAP are transferring all the control on their systems to the System landscape, for example Java developments. My question is if it is also possible to make these transports through the system landscape so no local PCs are involved in the process?

Hi Roy,
You are right in the point that development projects can be transported, using the NWDI, centrally managed through the system landscape.
Nevertheless, the PCD transports (EPA) have to be touched manually anyhow. Theoretically, you can set up an SDA and put an EPA into it, see http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/a3/782240da03e569e10000000a155106/frameset.htm for details.
But this only really makes sense if you want to transport your own application together with the portal configuration (iViews representing your application...).
So in the end, PCD transports are designated to be transported as you are used to - manually via the export / import function of the portal.
Hope it helps

  • I am not getting the Portal Content inside the System Landscape

    Hi,
    I am not getting the Portal Content inside the System Administrations-> System Configuration->System Landscape. This is not visible. I am SAP NetWeaver 7.0.
    What could be the possible reasons?

    Kaushik,
    do you have the full tree in Contentadmin? do you have no entry in the systemadmin? or is it just empty in the lower nodes? this would be normal, you don't see the content in systemadmin, just the defined systems.

  • Portal Content Transport help!

    Hi,
         I created some "Remote Delta Links" in my Development Portal that point to IViews on my Dev BI System.  When I transport the "Remote Delta Links" from my Dev Portal to my Prd Portal the reference is still to my Dev BI System. 
    Why would they still be point to my Dev Producer when transported to my Production Portal?  Sounds like a transport configuration issue.
    Anyone?

    Hmmm..  It looks like the Producer on the Development Portal and the Production Portal have to have the same name! 
    Unlike in non-portal BI transports where the Development ID is changed over to the Production ID...
    read step 1 real carefully at this link.

    Hi Ree,
    As I mentioned in my previous reply it is working perfectly for me. The import is creating the required files in the PCD.
    Let me explain how it is done.
    Create a TP
    Create a folder and add the required files(Workset,pages, iviews etc) to the the folder.
    add the folder with all the contents(select 'Add all objects to transport package' from the content menu) to the TP.
    Export the TP. give a name of your choice(removing the numbers)
    Download it to the local machine using the dowmload link.
    the file will be saved as a <i>TPName</i>.epa in your local drive.
    in import, select 'client' for Source for Package Files.
    brose and select the <i>TPName</i>.epa file.
    upload the file, and you can see the contents.
    then import it to the new environment. Now the complete folder stucture will be created in the PCD exactly as you created it for the TP.
    I hope you are doing like this. It should work
    Are yo able to open the downloaded file with WinZip?
    cheers

  • Portal content transport between the systems

    Hello,
    I am trying to understand the methodology of how the Enterprise portal or any Java systems transport the objects between the landscape like Dev to QA and Prod.
    How is the common shared directory / trans - designed and used in Java systems.
    Please throw some lights on how this can be implemented..
    Thanks,

    Hi Addy,
    I assume you are referring to transporting PCD objects like iViews, Pages and Roles across different environments?
    This link might be helpful for your scenario: [http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/c5/56599164d0c04cb566ba0e2d7ed55c/frameset.htm]
    The "Configuring Transport" section explains the different transport parameter in the Portal, including setting import/export folder across environments.
    You can also use CTS to transport portal objects, but CTS is more of an add-on to the standard portal tools.
    Hope this helps!

  • Transports on system landscape with no test environment

    Hi,
    Please share your experience about transporting from BWD to BWP. I have normally worked with BWD, BWQ, BWP, where we have the chance to test our transports on BWQ before moving the perfect changes to BWP. What precautions should I take when working and dealing with the landscape with no test instance?

    Hi all,
    Certainly I see and hear that smaller companies don't have enough funds to implement 3- system landscape, but I don't see why they would want to do that - better save money then and just do ABAP R3 reporting if all you will have is just implementing one module. Aren't you suppose to have sufficient funds in order to maintain and have SAP R3 and BW running? When they start wanting to implement more modules, then it will get clumsy and unstructured. They would have to spend more effort in doing the workaround and dealing with an unruly environment.

  • Transporting 3 system landscape

    Hi,
    We have a 3 system landscape configured. Transports created in DEv are moved to QA and then to PRD. Now a transport has been created in QA.  When we release them, datafiles and cofiles are not created.
    Please assist me in this issue. How do i get data and cofiles at OS level. I cannot change my transport route
    Is there any tp cpmmands that will create data and cofiles at OS level.

    In you QA box Change the settings in SCC4 in
    "Changes and Tranport for -Client-Specific object."
    If changes without automatic recording are allowed in a particular client, you can edit these on a maintenance screen without a request prompt window.
    If you have activated automatic recording for a client, whenever you save changed client-specific Customizing settings a Transport Organizer query window appears. Here you can choose Own requests to generate a list of Customizing requests that contain your tasks or, alternatively, Create request to create a new request for the client in question

  • Portal Content Transport

    Hi folks!
    I deleted several objects beneath a PCD folder.
    Now I want to update this folder in another portal system (via transport package - normally...).
    How can I have these objects that were deleted in the source system to be deleted in the target system?
    Note: I'd like to avoid deleting the folder in the target system and re-create it.
    Thanks in advance,
    Geraldo.

    Geraldo,
    I fear there is no such way you can delete in target system similar to that of source system.you have to maually do this.it wont work just by transport
    Thanks

  • Migrating Portal Content from a previous release

    I am stuck up with a challenging task. I am new to Portals and will really appreciate your help.
    I have installed the new OAS 10.1.2 version and upgraded it to the Portal 10.1.4 version. There is a some Portal Content present on different OAS installations which are earlier versions of the server (9i and 10.0.3)
    Can i migrate this Portal Content to the new Portal Server (10.1.4)? Please provide me with the appropriate information.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    It is not possible to migrate portal contents to the different version of Portal. In order to export the portal contents both the source and destination machine should have same Portal version.
    As a work around you need to upgrade the Portal instance in other OAS to the highest Portal version(10.1.4).
    You can refer to the Note 263995.1 for portal export and import, and you can also find the portal export and import document in the below link:

  • Keeping track of portal content and transports

    Hi,
    We have a DEV portal Ep 6.0 sp19. We would now like to setup QA and PRD systems and need a way to manage content between portals.

    Hi schlueterd!
    Build a small applet extending Runnable, ie: a threaded one. Each time its "run" method loops the applet will read an small input file and updates "displaying score" component.
    Of course you'll need to update this input file as soon as possible.
    You'll use few classes and a good reference is any applet displaying scrolling text (search for open source in the web).
    I hope it helps.

  • Portal Content Translation - Transport

    Hello
    We created some worklist in Portal Content Translation to translate the texts in roles, worksets and iViews from English (source) to German (end user).
    Now, we need to transport these worklists to the Test Portal and we tried to follow the steps as described in the help below:
    [Performing Language Transports|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/EN/f8/a4c0b28ab7324d835176fdbbb28c3e/frameset.htm]
    It did not work:
    1) We created a Package with "text_only" property, filled it with the worklists and selected the language to be transported in "Language Transport" menu, but the deployment failed.
    2) We created a Package without "text_only" property, filled it with the worklists and did not select any language to be transported. Once imported, the worklists were in the Test Portal, but the translation to german was not in them.
    3) We created a Package similar to the one in step 2, but selected the language to be transported in the "Language Transport" menu. The result was the same we had in step 2.
    So, what must we do to transport not only the worklists, but also the translations created in the Development Portal?
    Thanks in advance, regards!
    Jon

    Hi,
    I'm not sure if I did understand you correctly, but it seems that you want to transport the translation worklist? To transport the translated content, you'll have to do
    1. create a translation worklist and assign the PCD objects (iviews, pages, roles)
    2. translate the content
    3. publish the translated content
    4. create a transport package containing the PCD objects translated and transport this package (eg: text_only).

  • Transport of Portal Content

    Experts,
    I need to transport the portal content (only the IViews, pages, systems etc and not the background WD application!) from the dev box to the QA and later Production.
    Do i use the transport functionality provided in the portal for this??
    Can the portal content be extracted into a DC so that I can get the content into NWDI and tranport it through the landscape.
    Whats the default approach(could also be the only approach)???
    Thanks,
    Vineeth

    Hi Vineeth,
    For Transport you should have System Administration Role..
    Go to
    System Administration -> Transport -> Export
    Select the folder or content.. Right click.. Click Transport Package in context menu. And Follow..
    Save that package in ur system.
    Then import in ur degination system
    Thanks and Regards
