KM document storage

Hi All,
The landscape is like this: Portal and Knowledge Management on one server. TREX and KM documents need to be on another server.
The question is whether the persistence mode (database) for the document repository can be retained , and still this can be accomplished. If so, what needs to be done on configuration/Installation as this would mean the database needs to be on TREX server? If not, what are the options?
Would TREX settings need to change in anyway as result of how document repository is set?
Please advise. If any of you have set up installations as in landscape, it will be great to know how you accomplished the same.
Points will be awarded for answers that help resolve this.
Thanks and regards,
Arun

Hi Arun,
just be installing TREX on another server and creating there a file share for KM documents you will not have optimal performance as TREX communicates with the file share through the portal and KM (no matter if it's a CM Repository in FSDB/DBFS mode or a FS repository). In order to reduce the network trafic between the two servers when crawling and indexing the documents you could install a dialog instance of the portal with KM on the TREX server. Of course, if you load-balance users on this dialog instance, the performance of TREX will considerably be diminished.
The configuration change would be to specify the host name of the dialog instance under <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/7d/236cfa17034a37a439dc392ec59eb0/content.htm">URL Generator Service</a> for "Alternative Host". You can also configure that the Scheduler Task <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/40/a294ae7767a944a866419bc57dc0e7/content.htm">Index Service Task Queue Reader</a> runs also only on the dialog instance.
Hope this helps,
Robert

Documents, storage size and number of members (in Workspaces)

Greetings!
Is there any limit on the number of documents, storage size and number of members?
If positive, how can I expand this?
Thanks in advance.

There is no limit to the number of documents or the number of members.
At this time, we are providing 5 GB of storage, but there is no way to purchase additional space.

Is the Global Document Storage (GDS) used in Rights Management?

I am setting up an Adobe LiveCycle ES3 server exclusively for Rights Management; and I am wondering if the folder for the Global Document Storage (GDS) will contain any files that need to be backup'ed in case for system recovery.
TS

Aayush,
Thank you for your response.
In the documentation:
"LiveCycle specific data:
Application data exists in the database and in Global Document Storage (GDS), and must be backed up in real time. GDS is a directory that is used to store long-lived files that are used within a process. These files may include PDFs, policies, or form templates. "
However, during my testings I don't see any file activities on the GDS folder such as file creation, deletion, etc. Under what Rights Management operations or scenarios would files, policies be stored in the GDS?
Maybe I am testing using the proper conditions?

Solution Manager Document Storage

Hi Team,
I am aware that the documents in solution manager are stored in Knowledge Warehouse (KW) through content server installation. Can anyone brief about How does the document storage in KW will impact / consume the overall storage capacity of Sol Man database? How does the document storage will impact the oveall Sol Man system performance?
On which scenario,we recommend installation of KPRO server in the Sol Man System for document storage?
Guidance Required.

Hi,
For implementation area regarding the technical name of the folders, the following rule applies
for storing documents in Knowledge Warehouse folders:
for PROJECTS:
With the exception of template projects, the system stores all documents
in a folder with the technical project name when you create them.
In template projects, the system stores all documents, with the
exception of project documents, in folder SOLAR00. Project documents are
stored in a folder with the technical project name.
for SOLUTIONS:
The system stores all documents in a folder with the technical name of
the solution when you create them.
Check the note 913175 as reference.
Kind Regards,
Fabricius

DMS Document Storage in External Content Server

Dear All,
We are working on a DMS scenario, where we need to store the document in an external content server, and not in SAP DB. We are evaluating the solutions around the content server, and we see that SAP provides a HTTP Interface to SAP Content Server, and this interface can be configured through OAC0 and OACT, and managed through CSADMIN. Now, a set of questions:
1. If we intend to use SAP Content Server, do we need to purchase additional license for it? Our understanding is that the software is delivered with SAP Installation DVD, and as such no licensing charges are required.
2. If we DO NOT intend to use SAP Content Server, and rather use an external content server (Possibly utilizing the File System at the OS level as a repository), how will the configuration of OAC0 and OACT look like in such a case? We definitely can not use HTTP Content Server as storage type, How will the entries be organized in this case?
Has anyone worked on a scenario like this? It will be really nice if you can share your experience and expertise in this regard.
Awaiting replies.
Thanks and Sincere Regards,
Sid

Hi Ravindra,
Thanks for the clarification. Do I understand correctly that, for a external content server (without an installation of SAP Content Server) also, we need to specify the storage type as HTTP Content Server ? But in such a case, how will the work processes be handled? As I understand, SAP Content Server engine will handle the incoming/outgoing requests through a Web Server. So, don't we need a similar arrangement for an external content server also? In that case, will the connection parameters be for a HTTP Content Server or for RFC Archive, where we can specify a RFC Destination of type G and connect through it?
Thanks and Regards,
Sid

Document storage advice required

Good day,
Our developers are doing a project that involves processing Purchasing Invoices that have been scanned and converted to PDF. They are using ArchiveLink and at the moment are storing these documents directly in the database. They(developers) were under the impression they were simply linking the documents from the file system but I don't think that is correct. It is still under development.
Anyway, to cut a long story short I would just like to know if there are any other implications to storing approximately 2000 x 130kb PDF documents on average per month in a ERP database ? I know it will eventually effect our backups and restore times but as far as MaxDB is concerned is the database usually configured in a specific way to handle this kind of thing like on Content Management Server ?
I would like them to move the documents to Content Management Server or a 3rd party solution like ImageNow and just need some advice.
Many thanks.
Regards,
Nelis

After doing some more research I came across notes 653774 which states "..file repositories have been eliminated as of Basis Release 6.10. If a file repository is used in a live system, the data can no longer be addressed after a release upgrade to Basis Release 6.10 (or later version)." ...so that will prove helpful
Also note 595663 gives information on using ArchiveLink with database storage and mentions it should only be used with smaller datasets, for production SAP Content Server should be used.
This more or less gives me the info I require.
I'm still curious to know whether MaxDB is specifically setup differently on Content Server to handle large volumes of binary documents ?

Document Storage in Sharepoint without using EP

Hi,
We are implementing SAP Solution Manager 4.0 without using EP. It uses CRM 5.0.
The issue We are facing is that the Content Management system of CRM 5.0 uses the SAP databases for storage of documents. Obviously, this can be expected to be a heavy drag on the DB performance.
We want to instead use an alternate means to store CM Documents. For example, use a File-server area on the application server or use MS Sharepoint portal 2003 for the purpose. Any pointers on how to achieve this?

Pradeep

Document Storage on CM14

We are currently running an old version of Contract Manager [11.0] and are looking to upgrade to 13 or 14. One of the features that I have seen listed is the ability to attach documents to the job file. Would that include external scanned or PDF documents? We wanted to get a digital copy of contracts, signed change orders, field notes, etc and wanted to make sure that this was possible within CM. Does anyone have any experience with this and care to offer comments? Issues?
Thanks, Steve

Thank you for the quick reply.
Does the system store the scanned/PDF/etc files in the job? Or is it stored in some other file or subfile on the server. The reason that I ask is that when we upgrade, we'll need to account for the storage size, plus when we archive a job, will the stored documents transfer with the CM job file as part of the archive? Do we need to back up or archive the documents separately?
Thanks,
Steve

Performance outlook - triple document storage

Have both Solaris and Windows NT with Oracle 8.1.6, both multi-
processor. Storage of documents is about to triple. Want to
get the documents into Oracle, and not just have pointers with
Cold Fusion verity. Have done limited testing with small amount
of documents in Blobs. Performance was reasonable with text
searches.
How well are searches going to perform within record with Blob
(PDF, etc.) with 100G + of documents, ie comparable to CF
verity? Am wondering if anyone is at this size or greater and
not using BFILE?

Document storage in Collaboration

We are using WebCenter Interaction 10.3 and WebCenter Collaboration 10.3. When users upload documents into the documents portlet in Collaboration, where do the documents get stored? We want to come up with backup options for the application server and are interested in how the documents are managed by Collaboration.
Thanks.

Danya,
Thanks for the information. I was able to locate this directory structure and browse through it. So, the documents are compressed and the identifiers are stored in the collaboration database?
If we want to backup the system, apart from the database backup, we need to include this directory, right? That will ensure that all the documents uploaded into the communities are there.
Thanks.We had a similar issue in the past and the following directory was backed up.
\\ServerName\d$\bea\alui\ptdr\documents

BPM 11.1.1.7 Document Storage Bug

Hello,
I've installed SOA and BPM 11.1.1.7.
I am working on the OnBoarding process from https://java.net/projects/oraclebpmsuite11g/pages/Demos.
It works fine until I enable the UCM Document package: I check the "Use document package", in the Document tab of the Human Task (in JDev), as described in the Oracle Doc.
I rebuild the application and redeploy it.
Then, when I try to attach a document in the BPM Workspace, I get the same "Add attachment" window as before the change, and when I click to add a desktop file I get the error:
JBO-25058: Definition storageType of type Attribute is not found in ViewDefattachmentType74_276.
Would you have already encountered such a bug and how to fix it?
SOA was installed on the same server as UCM 11.1.1.7 and the UCM domain was extended with the SOA and BPM domain.
I am using Jdev 11.1.1.7+SOA/BPM plugin 11.1.1.7.0.0.8
Thanks in advance for your clues,
Vince

Hi! It's not a bug....I guess. The problem is in ADF form from older version SOA Suite in what OnBoarding process was created. To fix this just recreate UIs apps in HumanWorkflow configure page in JDev (use automatic). Then configure UCM: Webcenter UCM Integration PS5 | James Smith&#039;s Blogs
