Multi Client Strategy

I nned to set up a portal, which is used by multiple client, where users can have the same name.
Something like "Miller" at CorpA and "Miller" at CorpB.
They also have different role/group assignements and are diffent legal entities.
On the logon screen, they need to enter their user id and their Organisation as distinction.
What will be the best strategy? I was thinking of something like a login screen with three fiels (User, Org, pw) and connect via Javascript userid and Org, which will make the "Unique user name" in the UME.
Any other tips from other installations?

Hi,
I dont think that Portal UME Database can do this. You may have to use LDAP integrated User Management in order to do this. You can integrate Portal UME with a supported LDAP. For example, MS Active Directory, Novell eDirectory, SUNs LDAP. IF you are currently using one of them, you can easily integrate it with portal.

Need help in setting up a Multi Client chat server.

I've been stuck at this problem longer than I should be, and it's starting to get to me.
In my quest to learn more about networking in Java, I've decided to start with a simple multi client chat program. The problem is that I don't know exactly how to go about setting it up.
I can't think of any way for multiple threads to be able to send data to the central server so that can then be sent to every other client, and also be able to request data and have it sent back just to the client that requested it.
I think part of my problem might be that my knowledge of threads is somewhat limited, and that I might be overlooking or over complicating something.

If you're trying to develop webapplications then I'm not too sure if SunONE 6.1 is the best platform considering that its support for jsp, servlets and the likes is rather outdated. Personally I'd look into http://www.sun.com/download/products.xml?id=446518d5 (Java webserver 7 rc3) if you wish to continue using a webserver with integrated java container.
Otherwise you might benefit more from https://glassfish.dev.java.net (project glassfish), which is naturally also included in the http://java.sun.com/javaee (Java EE5).
Just my 2 cents.

Client strategy for DEV system in an implementation proj

Hi,
Can some one advise a good client strategy for an impl project? here's and example and questions i have. if you have a better strategy, pls advise. We want to follow this on ECC 6 DEV system -
10 - Sandbox (play around before doing config - no transports)
20 - Golden client (do real config here, and do development here - transports will start from here)
30 - Test client (for SCC1 testing)
I am assuming I should do DEVELOPMENT in the same golden client - does that make sense? Else, which should i have a new client? in that case, how will transports move?
Thanks for all your help

Hello Jerryp,
Our customer has similar setup:
100 - Sandpit
200 - Dev and Cust
300 - Testing
400 - Sandpit 2
Whenever we need to do any unit tests in client 300, we copy over customizing by using SCC1 transaction (client copy via transport request).
For example whatever development (code or customizing) we do in 200 is copied over to 300 by SCC1. This ensures the client dependent customizing is in sync with client 300 without destroying data.
Also, periodically we refresh client 100 and 400 and with data and customizing from 300. No development client independent changes are possible in the sandpit and testing clients.

Siddhesh

OSX: multi client server app with NSNetService

hello
i have a small osx server app
that uses NSNetService to manage connection and set up streams
but it seems to stop advertising as soon as a clients connects
how can i make it multiclient so it keeps advertising and when a new client connects uses the same streams ?
thanks in advance

Hello fellahs, as the title of this post says I'm making a client and server application. The server are supposed to handel several clients, and the communication is done true UDP. Out of interest why have you chosen UDP rather than TCP?
I have got two questions concerning this. The first one is if a exception is throws in the server should I then send the exception back to the client in serialized form. If I choose to do this then I also would need to handel the exception classen to the client. Or should I send back a regular IOException and use it's init cause to define the exception which occured in the server. That is up to you, you can do either. I would do the first option.
The second question is concerning the multi client support. If this is going to work then I would need to time-out the connection i the server environment, and I have not a clue about how long it should be?It should be long enough that you don't timeout a valid connection. There is no simple answer to this.

How to install Multi-Client Installation of Oracle Developer

Could someone help me figure out the documentation on how to do
a multi-client installation of Oracle Developer. I'm reading
the section 1.3 in the Getting Started manual for Oracle
Developer on NT. In trying to configure the OCSM host machine
there are no entries for installing OCCM or OCSA in the Oracle
Installer.
Could someone instruct me as to the proper way to do this? The
documentation just doesn't match the product.
Thanks

Sounds like a good idea! Could you email me a sample of
the .reg file to edit. [email protected]
Thanks!

Client strategy

We're starting a new sap implementation and I'm suggesting that we use as part of our client strategy the same client number across the landscape. Like -
CRM Dev = client 100
                   client 110
                   client 120
                   etc....
CRM QAS =client 100
                   client 110
                   client 120
                   etc....
CRM PROD =client 100
This is primarily for ease of system copies from prod to qas.
Does anyone see any drawbacks to this approach?
Thanks,
Dan

Hi Daniel,
Absolutely no problem in maintaining the same client numbers for your DEV, QUA & PRD servers of specific SAP solution.
But, it will be good if you maintain different numbers. since, it will avoid confusion and communication will be very clear.
i.e.. for example, in Development server you can give -- 100, 110, 120
for Quality server -- 200, 210, 220
for Production server -- 300, 310, 300
Note: the above numbers is just an example.
Kind regards,

ASIO Multi-Client Support - Feature Request

When AA 3 opens an ASIO device, it hogs takes possession of the whole device, even though some device drivers are built for multi-client support. Other audio applications that allow for this functionality have preference screens built in with which you can choose the individual channels that will be used by the software - if a series of channels is not in use by that one application, then another audio application can utilize the unused ports.
For example, I may choose to activate and use digital output channels 1-8 of an RME FireFace in Sonar as VSTi outputs, do a loopback in the RME TotalMix mixer, and then choose to use those same inputs to record into Reaper. As long as I have only activated the 8 outputs in Sonar and the 8 inputs in Reaper, everything is copacetic.
One can also use the pairs of outputs and split these multi-client interfaces into two halves (or any division, really) and have quite a bit of versatility - the only caveat being that there can only be a single word-clock (sample rate) for everything.
If the developers could see fit to implement this in the next version, it would be nice. I would like to get down to using just Reaper and AA and this recognition of multi-client capability would certainly help that cause.
--Dean

With CoolEdit I could use the RME Digi96 soundcard together with Digicheck.
But with Au I can not. A pity...

Recommendations/experiences using APO-DP in multi-client SCM environment ?

Hello experts,
we have an SCM5.0 system using DP/SNP etc. Now we want to onboard another company (Joint Venture) and introduce DP first for them. We are investigating what it would mean to setup another client within our existing SCM system or what challenges we could run into (since the underlaying BW is not truly multi-client capable).
SAP Note 1413544 says that theoretically SCM is capable of doing so with some limitations since there can only be 1 "master" BW client in an SCM system. Does somebody have / would kindly share experiences working withe several APO clients within 1 SCM system and preferably using DP.
My questions would be:
1) if I create a new DP PlanningObjectStructure in the additional APO client - do I need to activate it the "master BW client" (since there is an internal InfocCube behind) ? Does this also mean all POS and PAs are visible in all clients or only in the client where I created them ?
2) if I want to use RemoteCube to extract data from a DP (or SNP) planning area (ad-hoc reporting on LiveCache Data)- does this go thru the "master BW client" or thru the additional / new BW client ?
3) Assuming I would create a new DP POS + Planning Area in the additonal client and create planning Books / DataViews - are these PB/DV visible in all clients or only in the one where I created it ?
Regards
Thiomas

Hi Thiomas,
Though I have not worked for this scenario. However as per my understanding,All APO objects as PA, MPOS ,PB, DV should be client specific and will be visible in the specific client only. The Tricky portion would be the BW portion. As this would be single one, So the extraction cube and Planning area datsources should be visible in the main client BW.Hence it can be used in the same BW client .
I hope this should work having the seperate client for DP objects and keeping the same main BW client at the background. Let me also the test results.
Let me know if it helps.
Regards
Gaurav

My Tcp/ip multi-client server is not passing the data string into the flatten to string vi

Working with BW Multi Clients

Hi.
I know that in BW the System you work in has only one client for Configuring. In my case I need to create two clients for data purposes (have two different not parallel projects), but I was thinking in creating these two clients for development purposes also, at the end the configuration is the same for the whole system, so if a user enters on client1 and another on client2, if one of them tries to modify one object, it becomes locked for the rest of the users.
QUESTION: Have any of you worked in a Multi Client Landscape for BW? Is it possible to develop in one System using two different clients?
Greetings.
Jesús R. Cova Graffe

Hi,
As stated in the SAP link you can't effectively operate BW with 2 productive clients in one system. However data can be separated by means of authorization and/or splitting ODS'/cubes on organizational level (compcode etc.)
In a technical point of view all generated objects like ods,cube, update rules, tables and structures are client independent objects. Here a 2nd client within BW won't help to support 2 "separate" development projects.
In my experience it's best to put separate BW projects together on one dev box. In this way the developers are aware in an early stage when shared objects are hit. Before QA/Integration testing. From what i've seen and experienced it only saves time, and yes it is annoying.. because everyone has to play by the rules..
Are there any questions left: ask,
if you're satisfied, please reward.
Kind regards, Patrick Rieken.

How to use sap multi-client in SUP+DOE

hi guys,
How to use sap multi-client in SUP+DOE ?
Anybody know the steps necessary for do this ?

1. If you want to use same SUP server for all the DOE clients then:
- you need to download the bundle from SDOE_ESDMA_DESIGN transaction from each client
- You should deploy the ESDMA bundle multiple times in SUP with different names
2. If you want to use differnt SUP server for each client in DOE then:
- you need to download the bundle from SDOE_ESDMA_DESIGN transaction from each client
- Deploy in each SUP server. It can be same name everywhere.

Siva.

Multi-Client TCP Server /w Swing GUI

Hi everybody,
i have to develop a Multi-Client TCP Server with a Swing GUI. The GUI mainly consists of a JTable which shows various trace messages from processes running on other computers. As the data needs to be filtered i�m using a custom TableModel derived from AbstractTableModel. I�m creating a new thread for every client that connects as shown in http://java.sun.com/developer/onlineTraining/Programming/BasicJava2/socket.html
Now every client thread reads data from its TCP connection and puts it into the JTable by calling the method addRow of the model. But i�m getting strange NullPointerExceptions and IndexOutOfBoundExceptions when data arrives (i�m using ArrayList in the model). These exceptions never show in a single-threaded Swing app (i�ve tested this already, so i don�t think it�s a bug in my model), so i think this is a problem with Swing�s thread unsafety? Do you have any hints on how to get away with it? Also general design tips for a Multi-Client TCP Server /w Swing GUI are greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance!

Multi-client Server Design

Hello all,
I'm really looking for best practices on multi-client UDP or TCP servers. In reading the java tutorials, it seems like the way to go for multi-client TCP servers is a threaded application, with threads for each client connection. I haven't found out what one would do for a multi-client UDP application....
Anyways, I was hoping you might be able to point me to some tutorials/online learning resources that deal in design/best-practices.

Contractual User Type: 11 Multi-Client/System

Hi,
In BW 3.5 we had option to select Contractual User Type: 11 Multi-Client/System under Licence Data of Users.
However, in BI 7.0, we do not see option 11 Multi-Client/System at all.
Can you please advise,why this is not there? Is it replaced by some other type?
Best Regards,
UR

Hello,
you can select the available license types in transaction USMM (Tab User types). Check before you use license type 11 if there is only the need for it. In general you don't need license type 11 in a common SAP environment.

Milan
