MS Active Directory and SAP NetWeaver ID Mgmt..

Hi Experts,
We have NW IDM 7.1 installed on HP UX with Oracle 10.2 .
I was wondering if;
1.This architecure will workwith AD 2000 for User / group creation on AD. ( I am refering to slide 97 in ManagementIDM Connector Overview document)
2. Our AD iwill be upgraded from 2000 o 2003 in near future. What would be the impactof this upgrade on NW IDM side ? Are there any tasks fthat need to be carried out pre-upgrade and post upgrade on NW IDM side ?

Shailesh

Hi Sahailesh,
1.This architecure will workwith AD 2000 for User / group creation on AD. ( I am refering to slide 97 in ManagementIDM Connector Overview document)
Yes, the LDAP connector is generic and will work with all LDAPs and LDAP3 Derivitaves such as AD, Novell DirXML etc. The Active directory specific templates will work with Active Directory 2000, 2003 and 2008.
2. Our AD iwill be upgraded from 2000 o 2003 in near future. What would be the impactof this upgrade on NW IDM side ? Are there any tasks fthat need to be carried out pre-upgrade and post upgrade on NW IDM side ?
There really should not be any, although you should do a complete test of all your use cases. This is a time where the infrastructure team might make changes to the AD schema, sctructure and policies, all of which can have an impact on your IDM setup. Not unusal for there to be changes in DN structures and password policies in particular.
Hope this helps.

Matt

User synchronization issue between Active Directory and Solution manager.

Requirement:
Synchronize the users between Active directory and solution manager system.
What we did:
1. Created RFC connection (LDAP_RFC) for LDAP connector.
2. Created new LDAP connector that utilize the RFC (LDAP_RFC).
3. Created new logical LDAP Server(CUA).Here we have to maintain the connection
details to the physical directory.
4. We maintained the communication user that is used by the LDAP connector to bind the LDAP Directory Server.
5. In transaction LDAPMAP specific SAP data fields, we mapped to the desired
directory attributes.
6. Testing from LDAP transaction working fine. We are able to see the attributes and
values from Active directory.
Issue:
When executed the program RSLDAPSYNC_USER for user synchronization from t-code se38 with below selection .
LDAP Server = CUA (created earlier)
LDAP Connector = LDAP_RFC (RFC connection created created ealier)
In the tab: (Object that exist both in the directory and in the Database:)
Selected: Compare Time Stamp.
In the tab: (Objects the only exist in the Directory.)
Selected : Create in Database.
In the tab(Objects that only Exist in the Database:
Selected: Ignore Object.
Result from the report shows that connection to LDAP server is fine and 0(zero) objects in Directory.
The program does not create any new user in the Solution Manager system.
Any help on this issue greatly appreciated.
Thanks & Regards,
Harish

where did you see this error ? is there anymore details.
i think the account you are using for Sync does not have Replicate Directory Changes permission in AD. follow below article and give Replicate directory changes permission.

SAP R/3 and SAP Netweaver: changes, advantages and disadvantages

Hello,
i am interested in SAP R/3 and SAP Netweaver. Are there existing articles which describe in detail the architecture of both systems and improvements of the new system. I want to know which changes the developers made an why they did it? What are the advantages of the new Netweaver system? Are there disadvantages? Does someone have some links to articles which deal with those questions? Thanks.
Kind regards,
Philipp

Active Directory and many OUs

Hello all,
This topic might have been talked about before but after a lot of searching I still have not found a solution, so I ask for a bit of help.
In our Active Directory there are many OUs where users are kept. There is no one top OU where you can start your search. I don't really know why it was set up this way and I don't have an option to change that. I would really like to have ou=users like most have!
So when I try to authenticate a user (I'm installing DSpace in my uni) I cannot automatically add the OU for the user trying to log in and the users themselves don't know their OU (well, why would they!).
I'm hoping there is some simple solution to this. Maybe JNDI API allows for searching in many OUs at the same time (some fixed list in the code)? Or maybe the OU is not needed at all in the search?
Any help/hints would be appreciated.
best regards, Logi

For searching, you can issue a subtree search will search through the entire subtree, irrespective of how many levels of OU's may exist, by using SearchControls.SUBTREE_SCOPE
Have a look at the tutorial at http://java.sun.com/products/jndi/tutorial/basics/directory/scope.html
For authentication, you can either get the user to enter their:
distinguished name
(cn=Albert Eirnstein, ou=Research,dc=Antipodes,dc=com), although that is not entirely user friendly
their NT style logon name (samAccountName)
ANTIPODES\alberte, more user friendly,
or their Windows 200 style logon name (userPrincipalName),
[email protected], equally as user friendly.

10.6 home directory mounting with active directory and open directory integration

Hi guys i am having some issues in my new mac environment. I have a windows network with an server 2008 active directory. I have just recentlly created a "magic triangle" setup with active directory and open directory. When my users login via windows their home folders mount perfect. When any user logs in to any iMac in the building it does not work. They login perfectly fine, but their home folders do not mount. When i try mounting them manually with smb, i get a prompt for credentials. I am thinking this is my issue, my Single sign on with kerbos is working but for some reason is not logging in correctly. If i type in my credentials with my domain first then my name it works.
For example DOMAIN\jsmith works, but the way i think the mac and active directory is doing it now is just jsmith without the DOMAIN.
I feel like this is the problem with the home folders not mounting.
Can anyone provide some help with this?
Thanks,
Dani

Hi dani190,
are you using the fully qualified domain name of the network server? ie if your server is bob. and your domain is domain.company.com. then the FQDNS would typically be bob.domain.company.com or bob.company.com.
If the FQDNS works, then have you checked in the AD to make sure the path to the network home folder uses the FQDNS?
For the contact search path, did you put the AD at the top the list? (in directory utility)
Did you set the WINS work group on your client computer to your domain?
ie:Apple Menu, System Preferences, Network, Active Network Port (ethernet and or airport) , Advanced Button, WINS Tab, set workgroup to the name of your domain. ie domain.company.com and or company.com

Difference between SAP NetWeaver Gateway 2.0 and SAP NetWeaver Gateway productivity accelerator for Microsoft

Hi Experts ,
Can anyone tell me the difference between SAP NetWeaver Gateway 2.0 and SAP NetWeaver Gateway productivity accelerator for Microsoft ?
Best Regards,
SK

SAP Netweaver Gateway 2.0 is a product for Exposing ERP data as OData for external consumption which is independent of any Microsoft product. Using this you can model OData services and Expose them for light weight consumption. You can use this in use cases where you just want to consume the OData in some client or so, and you do not want any kind of accelerators to help you in development or in your integration.
GWPAM is an interoperability framework from SAP that leverages SAP NetWeaver Gateway and Microsoft technologies enabling customers and partners to easily and quickly compose solutions that consume and extend SAP throughout Microsoft technologies for on premise and on demand deployment. With GWPAM you get components like
GWPAM Visual Studio Add-On,GWPAM Template,GWPAM Project,GWPAM Outlook Add-In which are very much Microsoft specific.

Difference between SAP Netweaver PI and SAP Netweaver Mobile and SAP DOE

HI,
I am learning Sybase Unwired Platform and SAP PI 7.1. I was going through SUP and SAP configuration documentation. I am really confused at one point. Does this SAP Netweaver PI 7.1 and SAP Netweaver Mobile 7.1 are same?. What is these DOE connector? is these DOE and SAP Netweaver Mobile 7.1are same? .
I have gone through various documents. but still i am very much confused. I am very much new to this platforms.
Can any one please help me in above topics.

Yes latest version is Netweaver mobile 7.1. and in one of the documentation of Netweaver 7.3 it is said that,
to download the non-ABAP software that is relevant for SAP NetWeaver Mobile 7.3.
http://service.sap.com/swdc --> Downloads --> Support Packages and Patches --> Support Packages and Patched u2014 Entry by Application Group --> SAP NetWeaver and complementary products --> SAP NETWEAVER MOBILE --> SAP NETWEAVER MOBILE 7.3 --> Entry by Component --> Mobile Client --> NW MOBILE CLIENT SETUP 7.3 .
Actually my problem is, I am unable to get DOE Setup.exe file. I am able to download only .SAR file. If i configure SUP with SAP Netweaver mobile 7.1. i need to install DOE seperatly.
In one of the forum, it is said that
if we want to use CRM mobile, we need the following landscape to deploy it (for example):
1.) ECC Backend (your CRM Backend, off course you need this)
2.) Netweaver Mobile 7.3 (This is the DOE part, including ESDMA)
3.) Sybase SUP
Well, you need to connect SUP and NWM7.1 together. To do this you need to install a DOE-Connector in Sybase. The NWM7.3 contains the counter part to DOE-C which is the ESDMA stuff. This is now included in NWM7.3. If you run still NWM7.1 you need to install that piece of connector as a separate add on.
This is where i got confused and was searching for NWM7.3.
Thanks

How to Reconcile Data Between SAP Source Systems and SAP NetWeaver BI

Hi,
I just read "How to Reconcile Data Between SAP Source Systems and SAP NetWeaver BI". While I'm waiting for more authorisation to r/3 to carry it out and test this functionality.
I'd like to ask a question to anyone who has implemented this type solution. On page 10 it talks about creating a view then setting up the datasource. The solution talks about runnig a query. I suspect when we run a query I would run it for only a period(using variable) to reconcile.
My question is this. Will the datasource extractor on /r3 only select the period in our variable or will it do a full selection of the data which would then be passed to BW for filtering?
Regards

DEar Mark,
There are several avenues where you can see and reconcile your data with source system, u can see data in by tcode RSA3 for a datasource, and compare the values with actual document posted into the R/3 system. Respective fuctional consultant canhelp you a lot to confirm the data.
On BW side u can see the data in PSA and then check tranformations which subsequent change/update/reject data records based on the selective conditions.
hope this helps.
Kindly assign the points if it works.
Revert back if u need futher help/information.

Denis

Hi Denis,
SAP is a big umbrella where lot of products are developed and made to use in various industry solution like Engineering, Chemical, Retail, Oil & Gas. I used the term Solution to relate SAP application to these solutions.
SAP NW is comprised of following components SAP_BASIS, SAP_ABA, PI_BASIS and SAP_BW. In totality we refer this as NW stack.
SAP application will have underlying database like Oracle, DB2, MSSQL or MaxDB where actual business data is stored.
Please check link Products | SAP to have more insight of SAP products ,services and offerings.
Hope this helps.

Store signature image in Active Directory and deploy it to each users desktop

What I am trying to achieve is to have each user a hand written signature scanned in and stored in the .jpgPhoto attribute in Active Directory and then have some sort of script, like our login script, pull that information and copy the file to the users
desktop. We are wanting to be able to allow users to apply the signature image on a signature line in Office 2010 or InfoPath forms instead of typing their name. I know there has to be a way to do this but I have not found it yet and I am
not very good at scripting. Is there anyone here that has accomplished such a task and if so, how did you go about doing it?
David Hood

We already have Outlook email signatures created from AD information deployed to all users. Someone else on my team deployed that already and it works great. But that is just basic user info pulled from fields that were manually entered in
the user account. What I want to do is have a user scribble their signature on a piece of paper or a tablet, capture an image of that to crop and resize to store in the AD user account or somewhere secure that can be queried to be pushed to that users
desktop. I work at a state government agency and I have heard of another agency doing this but I have no idea how they did it. The only thing I could think of is to have a script ran during login to query the AD attribute the image is stored in,
pull it and then copy it to the users machine so when they sign a word document or .PDF with a digital signature they also have the option to place that image in the signature line.

SAP hostagent and SAP netweaver nodes not visible in WIEM

Hi,
We are implementing SAP BusinessObjects performance monitoring through
RSC. RSC SP3
We have installed SMD Agent on BOE server which forms "Managed Agent".
We have utilising existing WIEM installed in SOlution Manager.
We have installed SMD Agent on client desktop whicn forms "Managing
Agent" since Solution Manager does not have connectivity to internet
even through proxy server.
We have run configuration UI for Managing Agent which completed
successfully.
The configuration setup of Managed Agent also completed successfully.
But, as informed in the installation guide the "SAP HostAgent" and "SAP
NetWeaver" processes & nodes are not created in WIEM.\ check configuration 6.3.3 in RSC SP3 guide/
We checked connectivity & port settings and we have no issues.
Kindly suggest
Regards,
Atul

Hi Atul,
I see where the problem is coming from by analyzing the debugging logs.
When you ran the RSCSetup.bat and you were prompted for the Wily Introscope Enterprise Manager connection details and you put in:
HOSTNAME: CPHSMAD1
PORT: 8081
This is incorrect. That port number is the HTTP port of Wily Introscope, not the WIEM port. You must use the WIEM port which by default is port 6001 (this port will be the same as when you log on to WIEM via the Wily Introscope Investigator client)
Please do the following to correct the problem:
1) On the managed host (CPWBOAD1) run the RSCSETUP.BAT again. Choose deactivate and allow the process to finish.
2) On the managed host, uninstall the SMDAgent (with SID PRD) by running sapinst again and choose "uninstall"
3) On the managed host reinstall the SMDAgent (RSC Diagnostic Agent) again.
4) Confirm the new SMDAgent (PRD) service is running. If it isnt, start it.
5) On the managed host, run the RSCSETUP.bat again and make sure to choose the correct "Wily Introscope Enterprise Manager" port and host name (for example, CPHSMAD1 and 6001)
6) Now on the managing host, run the RSC UI Configuration Wizard again. The SMDAgent should appear now.

Toby
