MDM PI Adapter network specification

Hi all!
We have a situation where SAP MDM server and SAP PI server are located in different networks. We intend to use MDM PI Adapter for syndication and import purposes. The question is how do we expose one system in the network of another? What issues can we face here? What ports and protocol do MDM PI adapter use when connecting to MDM server. And what is transport security level implemented?
Thanks in advance,
Peter

MDM PI adapter not working

Hi All,
we are on MDM 7.1 SP04 AND PI7.1 SP06 AND MDM Java API Version is 7.1.04.138 i.e. on the latest version.
MDM PI adapter is not able to pick up the files from the MDM distribution folders..
Communication channel is functioning and in Green.
PI adapter is only picking up the files only when i manually activate the communication chennel.
what could be the reason.are there any other prerequisites for MDM PI adapter that we are missing upon.
if any one has come across the same issues and got this sorted out ..let me know please

kindly verify the values you mentioned in:
MDM Server (host name or IP)
MDM Repository Name, along with User and Password
DBMS Server (host name or IP) and DBMS Type
Port Code and Remote System Code of the outbound MDM port
and goto RWB and check the Communication Channel monitoring of your MDM Adapter.
may be the below thread can help you :

MDM Sender Adapter issue in SAP PI7.1

Hi All,
How to schedule(there is no poll interval in Sender communication channel) MDM PI sender Adapter.
Everytime we need to start and stop the channel then only file is being picked up.
I checked port details, file is not picking up automatically
Please suggest me.
Reagrds,
Hemanth

Hi Hemanth,
There are different versions of the MDM PI Adapter which correspond to the relevant PI version: one for PI 7.0 and the other for PI 7.1; the two are not interchangeable. Ensure that you have downloaded the correct version for your landscape i.e. PI 7.1
Setting Up Outbound Messaging from MDM:
Make sure that the MDM Java API (Connector) deployed on the J2EE engine matches the version of the MDM server on which the repository is mounted.
Also, Check that there is no more than one MDM sender configured per MDM outbound port in your system landscape
For more details, refer this below link

Syndication event for new MDM PI Adapter in MDM 7.1

Hi,
We have setup the new MDM PI Adapter for MDM 7.1 and have created interface in PI using this new MDM PI adapter. All neccesary steps as mentioned in the installation guides are done.
Also all necessary remote systems/ports/syndication maps are created in MDM, and syndication is running fine on the MDM side (using the syndication server, so not manually!)! The syndication files are created in the Outbound/../Ready folder, so again, on MDM side everything looks OK.
However, when the syndication server has run, there's no syndication event triggered (or at least not captured by the MDM PI Adapter), hence PI is not picking up the files from the outbound folder. It looks like PI is not getting any syndication event, or at least is not catching the event, since monitoring on PI side does not show us any trigger.
Now I have the following questions:
1. Does anyone know how we can verify/monitor if MDM raises any syndication event (the export log in the console of MDM 7.1 does not say anything about an syndication event that is raised, only that the export itself was succesfull)?
2. Is there any additional setup to be done on MDM side in order to make sure that the syndication event is raised as soon as the syndication server is ready (or is the syndication server ALWAYS raising the event, independent of using the MDM PI adapter)?
If anyone else has any experience with the new MDM PI Adapter for MDM 7.1, please share us your valuable information. Thanks in advanve for your answers/advice.
p.s. We are using MDM 7.1 (build 7.1.01.72).
Regards,
Marcel

Hi
We are also currently experiencing a similair issue. Seems to occur when some sort of matching activity occurs on the MDM Server. What happens is that syndicated files remain in the 'Ready' folder on the Outbound Port. In the PI Netweaver Trace Log files we start seeing this error message:
Jul 13, 2009 4:34:41 PM com.sap.mdm.logging.MdmLogger warning
WARNING: NotificationDispatcher - Connection failure. Original exception: 'java.net.SocketException: Connection reset'.
If we restart the Connector and Adapter from the NetweaverJ2EE Application Admin screen, this files still remain in the READY Folder. However, if i syndicate another data record into that folder, the syndication for that file work as well as for the rest of the files that were sitting in the READY folder. Seems like the "failed" files seem to latch off the syndication event.
Doesn't seem like the stability and robustness is there?
Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

If you want down load location,
Procedure
Prior to deploying the MDM PI Adapter software, you need to download the SCA file from the SAP Service Marketplace. To deploy the MDM_ADAPTER SCA file, use the SAP Java Support Package Manager (JSPM) tool.
Downloading the MDM PI Adapter SCA file
Any customer with a valid SAP Service Marketplace User ID (S-User) license can download the MDM_ADAPTER SCA file from the SAP Service Marketplace as follows:
       1.      Log on to the SAP Software Distribution Center (SWDC) at http://service.sap.com/swdc.
       2.      From the navigation tree on the left, choose Download u2192 Support Packages and Patches u2192 Support Packages and Patches - Entry by Application Group.
       3.      Continue navigating on the main web page as follows: SAPNetWeaver u2192 SAP MDMu2192 SAPNETWEAVER MDM 7.1 u2192 Entry by Component
       4.      Choose one of the following:
○       PI Adapter for NW 7.0
○       PI Adapter for NW 7.1x (where x is the Enhancement Package number)
       5.      Download the SCA files as follows:
For PI Adapter for NW 7.0
                            a.      Choose MDM ADAPTER 7.1 7.0.
                            b.      Choose # OS independent to see the available objects for download.
                            c.      Select and download the appropriate version. For example, MDMADAPTERu201310005240.SCA
For example, for MDM 7.1 02 Patch 0 - MDM Adapter for NetWeaver PI 7.1, you download: MDMADAPTER02_0u201310005240.SCA
       6.      Download the archive to a folder of your choice. Always use the same folder name when you update to a new version.
Deploying the MDM PI Adapter Software
For deployment on a SAP AS Java engine, use the SAP Java Package Manager (JSPM) tool.
       1.      Copy the SCA file in the JSPM Inbox folder.
       2.      Open the JSPM tool and log on.
       3.      Deploy the new MDM_ADAPTER software component or apply a support package as follows:
If the MDM_JAVA_API (connector) is not already deployed on your AS Java server, select it for deployment together with the MDM_ADAPTER software component. Give the MDM Java API library precedence in the order of deployment in the Specify Queue step.
Step 1 u2013 Select Package Type
○       For deployment of new software:
New Software Component ® No NWDI Control ® Next
○       For applying a support package:
Single Support Packages ® No NWDI Control ® Next
Step 2 u2013 Specify Queue
Select MDM_ADAPTER and order of deployment, if relevant.
Step 3 u2013 Check Queue
Step 4 u2013 Deploy Queue
When the deployment is complete, the deployment status is displayed in the status tab. If the deployment was successful, the wizard advances to the Completed step.
Step 5 u2013 Completed
       4.      Exit the JSPM tool.
After deploying the MDM JAVA API (connector) or the MDM_ADAPTER software component, restart the AS JAVA server.

Sender MDM PI Adapter Communication Channal Problem

Hi All,
I am doing (MDM >PI>R/3) Material Master Outbound scenario; while doing syndication process xml file is generated in MDM ready folder.
But, in ths PI system RWB Communitation channel monitoring each time (wheneve new file placed in Ready folder) the MDM PI Adapter Communication Channel has to stop and start it then only the latest file is picking up.
How to solve this problem without doing start and stop the Communication Channel?
Plaase, help me to solve this issue.
Thanks in Advance
Best Regards
Mahesh

Hi Mahesh,
communication channel is controlled in 3 different methods Manual, Automatic and External (HTTP request)
so looking at your channel behaviour i suspect it's set to 'Manual'. If so please chage the control to 'Automatic'.
Manual - You control the communication channel by choosing Start or Stop.
Automatic - The communication channel is controlled by scheduled availability times.
I hope this hleps you.

Advantages of MDM PI adapter oer FTP

Hi all,
Can u please tell me the advantages of MDM - PI adapter over the FTP apart from the discussions that are given in the PDFs . Also Would like to know with using MDM adapter how can we route the files to respective folders which can be done using the FTP by just specifying the path in CC. How the same result can be acheived using MDM PI adapter.
Regards,
Vinithra
Edited by: Vinithra Iyangar on Jun 15, 2009 5:46 AM

Hi,
If you have MDM at sender or receiver then MDM PI Adapter will be more useful as MDM PI Adapter enables direct communication between MDM and PI.As explained in above advantages there will be a tighter MDM PI integration as well as message monitoring. As MDM is also a SAP's Data Repository system(mainly used to remove duplication of data),with the help of MDM PI Adapter you can see the complete flow if the data got correctly updated in MDM or where it when wrong.If you use simple FTP, u can see with respect to file adapter only , you need to check in MDM seperatley again for checking if it got correctly updated.

Anika.

ACK from MDM PI Adapter

Hi All,
Can you please let me know whether we can receive the ACK messages back from MDM-PI adapter only with BPM in place ?(where in we explicitly ask for ACK)
If we do not use BPM, we would never have SXMB_MONI updated with the MDM ACK messages - Is this correct?
Please let me know
Thanks
Pooja

Import Trigger: MDM PI Adapter

Dear All,
Can you please let me know if the Import gets triggered automatically (even if the inbound port is set as manual) after PI writes a file to "Ready Folder" using MDM PI Adapter?
Thanks,
Pooja

Hi Aamir,
PI Adapter can never control MDIS.
Data Transfer from PI to MDM involves the following steps:
1. Data sent from any connected system is stored within PIu2019s internal table.
2. The XML message is forwarded to the MDM PI Adapter.
3. The MDM JCA Adapter itself invokes the MDM Java API and sends message to MDM using MDIS port functions.
4. These XML messages are sent to corresponding MDIS port folder so that MDIS can import the files independently.
5. The Adapter updates the delivery status in PI monitoring.
6. u201CFinished Import eventu201D is thrown by MDIS and caught by the MDM JCA Adapter.
7. The import status is used to update PI monitoring accordingly.
The 6th point means, that the MDIS will send the acknowledgement which will be updated in the PI monitoring services.
This is the improvement done in PI introducing the adapter to have better monitoring.
It is never meant to and not supposed to control MDIS.
For the data to be imported automatically, then the port status should be set to automatic.
Also note that this acknowledgement from MDIS will not be sent to PI if the port is manual.

Sravan

I have a 2nd-gen iPod from 2002 and recently broke the AC power adapter. Specifically the removable AC plug section. Is there a way to get a replacement?

I have a 2nd-gen iPod from 2002 and recently broke the AC power adapter. Specifically the removable AC plug section. Is there a way to get a replacement?

Have you tried Googling for it yet? There are numerous third party service centers and repair shots that offer replacement parts and such for all models of iPods.

Drops of network specific to Safari and other browsers

I am experiencing intermittent loss of connection to the Internet that only affects certain applications. For example, while I am using Safari and also listening to a stream of a radio station via iTunes, I may click a link or refresh a page and get the message that Safari cannot display the page because the computer is not connected to the Internet. Meanwhile, the radio stream continues to play; I can even stop and restart it. In addition, if I go to Terminal, I can successfully issue commands that operate on external resources (e.g., ping, ssh).
After a variable number of minutes, the connection will work again.
I connect through a wireless network with the signal coming from a DSL modem routed through an Airport Extreme. I have used Network Diagnostics, restarted the modem and wiped then rebuilt the Airport. These steps have not corrected the problem. In fact, I can connect to the modem and monitor its function; it shows no loss of signal.
I have also rebooted the entire machine (while making wisecracks about treating a Mac like a PC). I reset PRAM. I unplugged the machine to reset the PMU (or whatever it's called these days).
The problem also occurs in other accounts on the same machine (iMac Intel Core 2; 10.6.2).
When the problem occurs on the iMac, I can turn immediately to a MacBook Pro that is using the same wireless network and have no problems with the connection.
When the problem occurs with Safari, it also is present with Firefox and Twitterrific.
I'm stymied.

Aloha, Hawaiian.
Thanks for the reminder about updating my settings.
I have installed the update. The problem was present before and after updating.
I have not talked to my ISP, as it the problem is clearly not with the ISP (unless one might hypothesize that the ISP is specifically affecting one of my computers and not another and only some services on that one computer).
I'm now testing the possibility that I can control the problem by stopping and restarting the Airport client on the affected machine.... If that's so, I'll be digging into the client logs for hints about settings.

Hello Heymanth,
Make sure that connection is fine between systems. Test the RFC's in both systems. Also check the services too.
