Kernel Change on ABAP+JAVA Dialog instances

Hi guys (& girls).
Another question from me.
I installed two Dialog instances for an ABAP+JAVA System (BI 7). The Central instance is on AIX, the DIs are running on SLES / x86_64.
Now i want to change the kernel.
It's fully automated for the Centeral Instance - i do it with the JSPM. Is there also an automated possibiltiy for changing the kernel on the DI? Or do i have to do it manually?
There is no extra JSPM on the DIs. How do you do that????
Thanks for your help,
Martin

Hi,
the above link does only describe Java only systems
For my distributed environments, I have setup a global NFS share which looks like:
kernel
\_ 640_EX2_UC
| \_ linuxx86_64
|   |   \_ current -> ./PL145
|   |   \_ PL111
|   |   |   \_ disp+work
|   |   |   \_ ... [all other files]
|   |   \_ PL145
|   |      \_ ...
|   \_ aix
|      \_ current -> ./PL145
|      \_ PL111
|         \_ ...
|     ...
\_ 700_NUC
The instances are linked against the current link, which points to the right kernel folder. I setup a script with copies my latest downloads to these folder structure by creating a new PLXXX folder. Then, when it is time, the "current" link is set to the new "PLXXX" folder. Thats all
Thanks,
Hannes

Directory structure for ABAP+JAVA Dialog Instance

Hello,
Can any one clarify how will be the directory structure in a case where we have ABAP+Java System?
For Central Instance,DVEBMGS<instance no>
Central Services,SCS<instance no+1>
Ex:DVEBMGS20
SCS21
If I have another dialog instance,can I have only ABAP or only Java in that?What will be the directory structure?But I read that they will be in 1:1 ratio
Will it be D22(Only ABAP) or J22(Java only).
As a dialog instance,can ABAP exist with out JAVA.
or can JAVA exist without ABAP
Please explain the directory structure with an example.
Thanks,
Sudheer.

How to Uninstall Java Dialog Instance

Does anyone know how to uninstall a Java Dialog instance?
The install instructions, 'SAP Web Application Server 6.40 SR1 Java on Windows: MS SQL Server' suggest that I should go to the control panel and select the add/remove program and then find the instance and remove it. However, the instance does not appear in the list.
Note: I have the ABAP stack (DEV) and the java stack (JDV) installed on the same box. But, the java stack is not an add-in. The ABAP stack instance does appear in the add/remove program list.

ok Doug,
i've a workaround for that.
Go to registry editor.IF YOU Find the Service corresponding to J03(SAP<SID>_03). Delete it. (if you want to be fail safe, export that contents to a file using FILE --> EXPORT and then delete it. you may import it later if you want). and RESTART the PC.
this process will ensure that there is no instance according to your system (coz no registry entry is found). it is as good as removed. but the files that were created during the instance installation will remain in your hard drive.
IN CASE you need this instance later or this workaround gives you any trouble, just import the registry contents file which you have exported earlier and RESTART THE PC.
it is as good as it was!!!
this is an easy work around but slightly risky as u are fiddling with your SYSTEM REGISTRY ENTRIES.
Regards
Arun.
PS: Remove the corresponding entry in the WINDOWS SERVICES file. otherwise, it will give PORT IN USE during later installation with instance number 03.

Problems with Java dialog instance after System Copy

Hi Folks,
I've performed a System Copy from PRD to QAS both ABAP and JAVA Stack (Netweaver 2004s SEM-BW). The ABAP is up and running and the central instance JAVA too. But there was two applications (dialog instances JAVA) that desappeared after the HSC. I can't see them in Visual Administrator and can' t start them as well.
Will you give a hand on it? I know this is a pretty weird situation but if somebody experienced this please help me. As far as I know I've double-check the procedure used for this System Copy and everything has been followed.
Best regards,

Hi Prem,
Yes, this sap note is very useful, but there is no reference to Java Dialog Instance, which in this case SAP said that we need to re-install all Dialog instance, in my case I have two Appl Servers which has Java Dialog Instance installed so I have to re-install twice.

How does JAVA dialog instance gets synced from CI

Hello Guru's,
I have recently added two dialog instance to my Portal production.
I want to know what changes I have to make manually to all the dialog instances?
I had to manually change the JAVA parameters for all the dialog instances servers and add TREX nameserver.address.
We have Application integrator iView and for that we had turned off the Session Management Alerts (current mode = off), but for some reason I have to login to all the dialog instance and turn this off, I thought this is Instance independent?
Please help, what else should i be aware of?
Thanks in advance.

Was there ever any feedback to this. I would be interested in the same information, any tips/best practices for adding a java dialog instance.

Installing Java Dialog Instance - Error while connecting to DB

We would like to add a dialog instance to our production Portal server. We installed Portal as stand-alone on the central instance. We have another server we would like to setup to serve as a Portal dialog instance.
So far I have installed Windows 2003 Server Standard. Installed MSSQL server client tools (database is mssql server). Installed jdk 1.4.62. Set java home and path environmental variables. I'm now installing the Java dialog instance (I can't find any documentation on this). From Netweaver installation CD> SAP NetWeaver '04 Support Release 1> Java System> MS SQL Server> Dialog Instance Installation>
SAP System ID: (sid) ES2
Central Host: SAPEPS02
Path to JAVA DVD supplied> JDK Directory confirmed> Domain paramaters confirmed> domain<sid> account passwords supplied> domain<service><sid> account password supplied> Instance number confirmed>
Installation started> It gets to step 8 and fails stating "Error while connecting to DB". I looked through all the log files and couldn't come up with anything (i'm very thorough).
I tried adding the users to the database as dbowners (no luck). I installed SQL server 2000 with SP4. No where during this installation did I get prompted for database parameters?
Is there something basic i'm missing? Does this scenario not work? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Pointing me in the right direction of the correct documentation would also be appreciated. Thank you in advance.
Sincerely,
Brad Dridi

Hi Brad,
I am facing the same problem. I hope by now you must have got the solution for this.
Can you please let me know how did you overcome this situation?
Thank you!!

Question about SSO (for Java Dialog instance) for Portal EP 6.0 SP 20

Hi All
I have following question.
We are running Portal 6.0 SP 20. We have JAVA (Portal) CI+DB running on single host SAPQP1 and Two JAVA Dialog Instances (J2EE Application servers) running on separate host namely SAPAP35 and SAPAP36.
I was able to configure SSO between SAPQP1 (CI+DB) and ECC R/3 system (QC1). SSO is working fine. Users can access all ESS/MSS data in portal when they use Portal URL running on SAPQP1 (http://sapqp1.xxxxx.com:50000/irj).
But when users try to access ESS/MSS data via portal (URL) running on SAPQP35 (http://sapap35.xxxxx.com:50000/irj) and SAPAP36 ((http://sapap36.xxxxx.com:50000/irj) SSO does not work, i.e it system asks user id and password.
So , how I can configure SSO between SAPAP35 and SAPAP36 JAVA Dialog instances and ECC R/3?

Hi Sandip,
obviously you already configured QC1 to accept Tickets issued by the Java Engine on SAPQP1. Did you imported the public (java) certificates from SAPAP35 and SAPAP36 into your ECC System? The certicficates need to be added in client 000 to your System PSE and in your production client to your ACL.

Java Dialog Instance

Hi,
we installed a additional dialog instance for our entprise portal. the instance is up&running, but no one is connected. i can manage the instance in the config tool and added 3 servers.
do i have to set up a additional web dispatcher? - like mentioned in this thread How to Load Balance between java dialog instance in BI Portal)

Hi,
When you have your first instance, i.e, the Central Instance, your users should connect to this system via URL like this:
http://<ci_host>:<port>/xxxx
Then the dispatcher in the CI will distribute all the requests to the server node(s) as a kind of load balancing.
While later if you install an additional Dialog Instance, the DI will have its own URL for accessing:
http://<di_host>:<port>/xxxx
and of course the dispatcher of this DI will distritute the requests inside this instance.
So your users can either access the DI or CI directly with the specific URL, or you can configure any load balancer in front
of the two(or more) instances.
SAP WebDispather is just one of the chooses. --- not the only one.
As you mentioned, you have already 1 webdispathcer, but not sure what it is used for.
While if it is just used for this system, so you can add the DI to to the balancing list, that is it.
Not needed to install another web dispatcher.

Thunder

Kernel upgrade having ABAP+JAVA instance

Hi team,
Can you provide the procedure how to kernel upgrade for our windows system having ABAP+JAVA instance releae version 700.
Provide the links, your replies are very helpful.
Regards
Bhaskar

Hi Bhaskar,
You can use JSPM too in this case. Otherwise if you want to do it the old fashioned way:
> Stop SAP, Database, Saprouter, listeners and all the
related services.
> The location of the kernel is /usr/sap/<SID>/SYS/exe/run
> Take a backup of the files in this location and take a
print out of the ls -ltr (This is needed to give the new files the
correct permissions)
> Overwrite all the new files to the kernel location. The
purpose is to retain the old files for which the new version is not
available.
> The permissions of the file need to be changed as they
were before.
> Restart all the processes. The kernel upgrade is
now done. System
> status will give the newer version of the kernel.>
>
disp+work
Will give the
new Kernel version.

How to add a java dialog instance to Java central instance of SAP CRM

Hi Gys,
I have installed a new dialog instance for the CRM Java landscape for the version 7.01 .
CRM Abap instance is seperate and its data accessed by Jco connection by central instance but not dialog instance . Could you please let me know if any configuration steps to be followed.
Thanks in advance
Sudhakar

Could you describe your problem a little bit more.
I have installed a new dialog instance for the CRM Java landscape for the version 7.01 .
CRM Abap instance is seperate
Ok, sounds like 2 Java instances and one ABAP instance.
and its data accessed by Jco connection by central instance but not dialog instance.
This is where I get confused.
Do you have one or more ABAP instances?
What is your actual problem (what do you want to do)?

How do I see the Kernel patch level in Java ONLY instance?

Could someone please tell me How do I see the Kernel patch level in a Java ONLY instance?
In Abap, it is simple!
In Java I see in the System Info: Kernel Version: 7.00 PatchLevel 108458.44
BUT that doesn't correspond to the real patch level which I can see when I do disp+work which gave me 111

Hello Yechezkel,
I am not sure whether the patch number you are looking for is available.
Typically you can use "-v" to display the patch level of SAP kernel programs. When I run "jcontrol -v" or "jlaunch -v", the patch number is blank (at least on the 6.40 release I checked)
The SP level should be able to tell how current the Java instance is updated, especially for NetWeaver 7 systems always patched with JSPM stack.
Best regards,
Victor

ADS in the Java stack of a Dialog instance on Windows + CI on iSeries

Hi,
I read the document "Using Adobe Document Services with SAP on IBM DB2 for i5/OS".
Summary of the document -
There are two possible technical scenarios:
1. ADS in the Java stack of a Dialog instance on Windows
1.1. ABAP+Java dialog instance on Windows
1.2. Java dialog instance on Windows
2. ADS in a SAP system on a supported platform
2.1. ABAP+Java central instance on Windows/Unix
2.2. Java central instance on Windows/Unix
The document recomammeds technical scenario 1, that is, install a Windows Dialog instance.
Choosing an ABAP+Java or Java system depends on the usage scenario for Interactive Forms:
- Interactive PDF use: Java mandatory, ABAP+Java possible
- Interactive use in SAP Maanger Self_Services/batching of forms:
ABAP+Java mandatory but Note 993612 describes the status for NW04s SP12 onwards.
End of summary -
Our prefered rechnical scenario is: "1.2. Java dialog instance on Windows" to minimice resources.
Our usage scenario for Interactive Forms includes "SAP Manager Self- Services".
Our interpretation of note 993612 is that we do not need double stack installation. Could you confirnm this ?.
If yes, we are going to install a Java Dialog instance on Windows connected to our Java Central instance on iSeries (our SAP Portal system) to use ADS.
Best regards.

Hello Torrell,
your statements sound reasonable, also including SAP Note 993612.
To decide, though, whether a single stack would be enough (especially based on the aforementioned note), you will need the advise of an ADS application expert (or someone else who has implemented your scenario, independent of the platform).
I thus assume that you will not get an answer in this forum. Your question is ADS application specific.
When you know for sure that a single stack will be enough, your approach to use a Windows dialog instance will be fine.
Best regards, Barbara

Any advice / guide on how to create separate Stack ABAP + JAVA for CTS+

Hello Experts,
Can you please point me to the how to guide for creation of separate Stacks ABAP + JAVA for CTS+ Transport Management.
Also can you please clarify how I can convert STMS Virtual systems in to Real systems? Any guidance for this?
Thank you

Hello,
You should have a look at the installation guide.
