Is transport layer ONLY for consolidate router?

I have reviewed some STMS configurations and come up with this conclusion:
Transport layers other than "SAP" are for consolidation routers ONLY.
In other wods, if there is no consolidation router, no transport layers other than "SAP" needed.
Could you confirm my conclusion is right? And if so, why?
Thanks!

The definition of a consolidation route according to the course ADM325:
A consolidation route defines the path (the successive system and/or client) that is followed by a change request immediately after the release from the development system. Typically, the consolidation route proceeds from the development system to the quality assurance system in the standard three-system landscape.
A consolidation route is created from the development system to the quality assurance system through the transport layer Z.<SID>.
A consolidation route is created from the development system to the quality assurance system through the transport layer SAP for the transport of SAP standard objects.
Hope this helps.
Kind regards,

Transport layer security for ActiveSync on iPhone

Is the data (email, calendar, contacts) encrypted during transport when using ActiveSync on iPhone?
Thanks
Saqib

All data sent via AT&T's cellular data or internet network is encrypted, which is the same with all GSM networks.
And copied from this link.
http://www.apple.com/iphone/business/integration/
iPhone 3GS protects your data through encryption of information in transmission, at rest on the device, and when backed up to iTunes. iPhone also provides secure methods to prevent unauthorized use of the device through passcode policies and restrictions. In the event of a lost or stolen iPhone, you can even clear all data and settings by issuing a remote wipe command from Exchange.
Network communications stay secure with Cisco IPSec VPN, WPA2 Enterprise Wi-Fi, and SSL/TLS on iPhone. Exchange users can enforce complex passcodes, camera restrictions, and other policies on iPhone to protect corporate data. And certificate-based authentication enables iPhone to connect with corporate servers via Exchange as well as VPN On Demand, making network communications seamless and secure.

Transport Layer

Hi guyz,
I have a question. why do we need a transport layer between the Development system and the consolidation system?? It is really appreciated if someone can throw some light on "Transport Layer".
Thanx in advance.
Ashok

Ashok,
The transport layer is for capturing all the modifications, customizations that is being taking place in a development system. As a result a request is created only in a development system, so that it can be moved to quality, tested and then finally to production.
The fact that its not between quality and production is that, quality doesnt allow any new modifications as its only for testing purposes and any new customizations will obviously be done in development.
Hope i have tried to explain upto your understanding. If you still have any doubts, let me know.
Thanks and Regards,

What's the difference between transport route and transport layer

what's the difference between transport route and transport layer,Can somebody give me some explaination? thks in advance!

Hi,
Transport Layer in ABAP Workbench
    The Change and Transport System supports the distribution of development
    work on large projects across multiple SAP Systems.
    The packages in each development system are grouped into one transport
    layer.
    The transport layer determines whether objects are assigned to a local
    or transportable change request.
Use
    Each of your SAP development systems is assigned a transport layer as
    its standard transport layer. If you use Extended Transport Control, you
    can assign different standard transport layers to certain clients.
    You can define at the most one consolidation target for each SAP System
and transport layer.
When you create a package, it is assigned the standard transport layer
of the SAP System.
If you want to assign a different transport layer to a package, you
require the administration authorization for the Change and Transport
System.
The objects in a package automatically have the transport attributes
defined for the corresponding transport layer.
o   If a consolidation route originating in their SAP System is defined,
     then the objects are assigned to a transportable request, and
     transported into the consolidation target when it is released.
o   If a consolidation route is not defined, the objects are assigned to
     a local request, and are not transported.
Customizing settings are not assigned to a package. They have the
transport attributes of the standard transport layer of the system or
client.
It is best to assign a package a standard transport layer for which a
consolidation route originating in the development system is defined.
To display and maintain the transport layers and routes, use the
Transport Management System (transaction STMS).
Only the system adminstrator can make changes.
Caution:
     The tables TSYST, DEVL, TWSYS, TASYS are no longer productive as of
     Release 4.0A and cannot be maintained.

ChaRM: transport layer/routes used by ChaRM

Hi!
We have very complex trasport system settings and would like to implement ChaRM with parallel usage of transports in non-ChaRM environment.
We have a lot of transport routes (between DEV:100 and QAS:100) (e.g. SAP, ZDEV, ZFAD, ZGFA, YDAS).
How can we split the transport routes for ChaRM and transport routes for transports without ChaRM?
Which transport routes will be used with ChaRM?
Thank you very much!

Hi
as already mentioned in one of my replies to your last thread, ChaRM always (and only) uses the standard transport layer (route) per client.
This one and all other ones can be used for non-ChaRM transports. This is standard TMS functionality.
But you have to check if the "ChaRM check" in your project configuration accepts your TMS settings. Maybe the other transport layers/routes make waves. Then you have to change them...

2 consolidation routes, one transport layer - not possible

Hello everyone,
I have one DEV system and two QAS systems. Some of my development need to go to both of two systems, however some of them need to go to only one of my QAS.
So I have set up two transport groups: one link to both of two QAS and another one link to one of them. Because it is not possible for 2 consolidation routes with one transport layer, so there would be much of trouble when I need to transport my own development into that one QAS------I need to manually change the object directory entry/package for it first.
So I would like to know is there any way easier to set up the landscape so that the developer can easily choose the correct transport target in our situation?
Thank you very much in advance for your help!
Best regards,
Keith

Hi Keith,
please do not mix up transport groups (systems sharing one transport directory) with transport target groups.
If you have one development system DEV and two QA-Systems QA1 / QA2 then there are 3 options: Transport from DEV to QA1 only, transport from DEV to QA2 only and transport from DEV to both QA1 and QA2. To realize this, you need three consolidation routes starting in DEV. One with transport layer (say) ZQA1 pointing to QA1, one with transport layer (say) ZQA2 pointing to QA2 and on with transport layer (say) ZALL pointing to the transport target group which in turn points to QA1 and QA2. Then you need to create 3 packages (formerly: development classes) poining to one of these three transport layers. For example ZPACKZQA1, ZPACKZQA2, ZPACKZALL. Then when you create a programm you need to specify a package. Depending on the package you choose, the program will be transported to either QA1 only, QA2 only or both QA1 and QA2.
Best regards

Why transport layer has package defined for it?

I double click a transport layer on txn STMS. The popup is a "package overview", some entries show up here:
YWM                            ZTRL      Warehouse Management Repositor
YBW                            ZTRL     BI Development Package
YCRM                           ZTRL      CRM Development Class
Could you help explain:
1) how was them defined?
2) what's the purpose to do so?
I have verified that the number of the package is the same as the number of the DEV clients created after installation.
So are there any relation between them?
Thanks!

Hi,
Whenever your create some program then you have to assign a package to it like a container.

ChaRM taking standard SAP transport layer for a project

Hi
After creating transport request via ChaRM, we notice that the request is assigned to the transport group where standard SAP transport layer is assigned, and not to the respective project transport group.
I activated ChaRM for a project, by assigning logical component DEV-100 -
QAS-200 -
PRD-300
When creating transport request via CR, the request is created in D10-100 and assigned to /GLOBAL/ transport group instead of /PROJ01/ group. After debugging I notice that ChaRM is sending SAP transport layer and since SAP layer is assigned to /GLOBAL/, all requests are assigned to /GLOBAL/ group.
Is there any report or missing step which I should execute?
Thanks & Regards
Madhu Bommala

Hello Madhu,
To define what should be the transport layer used by Charm you should execute the report /tmwflow/set_track_generation ,
if you want to use your transport layer instead SAP layer, you should set the option NO_SAP in this report.
I hope that this information can help you.

Diego Fischer

TS2972 i have done all 7 steps recommended by the troubleshooting articles and only when i restart my router does my library show on apple tv2 but only for about 5 minutes, this was never a problem before the updates of itunes and apple tv2,

i have done all 7 steps recommended by the troubleshooting articles and only when i restart my router does my library show on apple tv2 but only for about 5 minutes, this was never a problem before the updates of itunes and apple tv2, i have spent insane amounts of money on the apple store buying movies and tv shows that i cannot watch anymore, and no there is no firewall on my laptop nor my router, so no port configuration is needed
i have read many articles for this problem but there is no solution, some say restart the router, others say uncheck the option to sync iphone over wi-fi, others suggest not hitting the "done" button after setting up homeshare on itunes, NONE of them work. My itunes library disappears from ym apple tv 2 after 5 minutes or so

Did not work. I've selected iMessage to ON and left it. After a few hours I recieved a message "activation unsuccessful. Turn on iMessage to try again". This has been going on for the past 3 days.

Transport layer and transport package

I have a fundamental query on transport package and layer.
Objects are classified in packages depending on the project and put in $TMP or test package else they are local ? Only objects belonging to a transport package can be transported , others are not ? How transport package is defined ? All objects must be a part of transport package else can not be transported ?
ABout transport layer, I understand this is used to define which path objects will take during transport particularly when there are multiple transport routes. But what are the advantages of it ? How we can define it (trx code/menu path) ?
Is it mandatory to use transport package and layers ?

Hi Mike,
Just to clarify a few basic concepts:
A transport package (formerly called a "development class", a term you may still encounter) groups related development objects. Whenever you create a new development object (table, program, ...) you have to assign it to a package; the object is then placed into a transport request. Alternatively you can indicate it is a local object (its package is then "$TMP") but such an object is non-transportable.
A transport layer identifies the route that transportable devmt objects must follow. Typically in your system you will have two layers: a layer usually called Zxxx (with xxx = SID of your development system) is used for your own developments. Another layer called "SAP" is used for transporting SAP objects, for example changes to standard SAP code implemented via transaction SNOTE and recorded in repairs. Without the "SAP" layer in place, repairs would be non-transportable.
Each transport package belongs to a layer. You assign the layer when you create a new package in transaction SE80. You can change the layer later on, but this is rarely needed and can cause quite a few side-effects. SAP objects always have layer "SAP". The layers themselves are managed in STMS, under "Transport Routes".
Hope this clarifies things,
Rgds, Mark

Transport layer SAP between development & quality

Should we have to use two transport layers ( SAP& ZDEV(created )) between the development & quality system as their consolidate route ?
Transport layer
SAP- Transport layer for SAP standard objects
ZDEV- Transport layer between Devlopment & quality systems
I assigned the consolidate route ZDEV between the Development & quality systems.Now ,How can I assign the transport layer SAP between the both systems as a consolidate route. Help me with your steps..

HI,
Z<SID> and SAP both are consolidation route as well as transport layer having different characteristic.
->A transport routes can be either a consolidation route or a delivery route. For a standard three-system
landscape, the transport routes are as follows:
-> A consolidation route connects the development system and the quality assurance system. This
transport layer is named Z<SID>, where <SID> is the system ID of the development system.
->A delivery route is created between the quality assurance system and the production system.
->In the development system, if changes are made to objects whose development class refers to the
(standard) transport layer corresponding to a consolidation route, these changes are recorded in
requests and transported to the quality assurance system and then to the production system.
If you change SAP objects, these changes are recorded in repairs, which can be transported in the
same way but using the consolidation route "SAP".

kaushal

ChaRM: Support of more than one transport layer

Hi!
We would like to implement ChaRM for the 3 tier landscape (DEV:100 --> QAS:200 --> PRD:100) with several transport layers and transport routes:
a) u201CZDEVu201D u2013 Standard transport layer
b) u201CSAPu201D u2013 SAP transport layer
c) u201CYCSTu201D u2013 transport layer for internal customizing
d) u201CZEXTu201D u2013 transport layer for external vendor
All the transport layers should be used for the transports from DEV:100 to QAS:200 within ChaRM.
Our question:
Does ChaRM support several transport layers (SAP and none-SAP)?
Or does it accept only standard transport layer
(u201CSAPu201D and u201CZDEVu201D, but it doesnu2019t support u201CYCSTu201D and u201CZEXTu201D)?
Thank you very much!
regards

Hi
ChaRM only supports one (the standard) transport layer per client. I've already told you that some days ago... You can trust me I've configured those landscapes several times for many customers.
Enclosed please find a statement from SAP:
Transports are supported in the standard transport layer of each client. When you configure transport routes, note that only consolidation routes that are assigned to the standard transport layer of the relevant exporting client are taken into consideration. For each exporting client, exactly one target client and one target group are permitted.
We recommend that you assign exactly one development system to a production system, and that these two systems are connected by exactly one unique transport track.
If a development system and a production system are connected by more than one transport track, this may lead to inconsistencies within the transport distribution. This type of transport configuration cannot be supported by Change Request Management, and may cause inconsistencies within the tools involved.
So you have to change your TMS configuration and the assignment of transport layers to development packages. e.g. use transport layer SAP and ZDEV
Then it is possible to use ChaRM and standard TMS together

Andy

MII as transport layer

Hi,
I knew some Customers are still using IBM MQSeries as a transport layer which guarantees them the delivery of files between the Plant and Enterprise and is there any similar feature available in MII 12.1 or MII 12.2 ? From my understanding MII 12.1 Buffer functionality exists ( correct me if I am wrong) for this use or any more functionalities exists in MII.
Thanks,
Jai

ya..... I am now able to do that and now target system is coming automatically as quality system.
Good!
Is there anything left to configure??? There is now only one link between dev and quality system i.e transport layer.....
So all packages who´re not in that transport route are not defaulted as target system. If that is ok you´re finished
