NAS mounted SAP linux server for backup

Dear All,
We are working with SAP ECC 6.0/ MAXDB on Linux RHEL5 platform. For backup and additional storage purpose we have mounted NAS box to our Linux/SAP
While trying to take backup of the Database online backup using DBMGUI , I am getting backup error permission denied unable to open device.I checked found that the NAS box is only allowing user root and group as NFSNOBODY.OS persons are not able to help us as they dont have much knowledge on how to configure NAS for SAP backup purpose.
Any help highly appreciated.
Thanks

Anna,
It should work even though I didn't install it
It is a kind of recommended configuration for installation.
Thanks

  • Using SAP Content Server for SAP E-Recruitment

    Hi SAP Experts,
    We are presently implementing SAP E-Recruitment using BSP services, We are successfully runnig with Whole E-recruitng cycle when we use SAP system DB as storgae for External Candidtes' Documents.
    But, Our Client wants to have SAP Content Server to store all documents uploaded by External/Internal Candidates becuase client is worrying that if SAP system DB holds such huge data base of Resumes, it may slow down the performance of SAP System.
    So, We need inputs from you suggesting whether is it feasible to use SAP Content server for SAP E-Recruitment Implementation. SAP no where suggests to Content server. So, we are in deliema to go for content server or not. If it is feasible to use Content server, pls provide me proper links or documents for reference.
    Please give your valuable inputs,
    Thanks & Regards,
    Sudheer Kumar P

    Hi Sudheer,
    We are considering the same option.  We are concerned about performance after all these documents are uploaded too.  Did you install a content server?  How did it go and was it difficult to set up with e-rec?
    Thanks

  • MICR font not displayed in PDF on SUSE Linux Server for Check Writer (XML)

    We are generating checks by running the Check Writer(XML) concurrent request and are not able to see MICR fonts on the Check. We downloaded the free version from IDAutomationSMICR.ttf and the fonts were registered under /usr/local/fonts/micr directory. I registered in APPS and uploaded the file IDAutomationSMICR.ttf. Am I missing any steps. The DBA's have registered the fonts under /usr/local/fonts/micr on SUSE Linux Server . The custom Checks are generated but no luck with the fonts. Please advise. Can I download MICR fonts other than IDAutomation site? Appreciate your response.
    Thanks,
    Hari

    I use version 11i, so the steps are probably different. Download a font file (gnuMICR for me). Extract it to a location of your choice on your operating system.
    Follow these steps to load the MICR font to the server. (Step 11 was missing in some of the metalink documents in late 2007. I think Jan. 2008 will be OK).
    1.     Log in as XML Publisher Administrator.
    2.     Navigate to Administration->Font Files->Create Font File.
    3.     Fields are Font Name and File. For Font Name choose any descriptive name. File will browse your PC to locate the font file.
    4.     Navigate to Font Mappings->Create Font Mapping Set.
    5.     Mapping name is the name you will give to a set of fonts. [MICR Font]
    6.     Mapping code is the internal name you will give to this set. [MICR]
    7.     Type: 'PDF Form' for PDF templates. 'FO to PDF' for all other template types.
    8.     Create Font Mapping (this allows you to add multiple fonts to a set).
    9.     Font Family is the exact same name you see in Word under Fonts. If you don't use the same name the font will not be picked up at runtime. [GnuMICR]
    10.     Style and weight must also match how you use the font in Windows. Normal and Normal are good defaults. [Normal, Normal]
    11.     DO NOT enter Language or Territory
    12.     Choose a value for Font Type. [Truetype]
    13.     Search for the Font you just created in step 3. [GnuMICR]
    14.     Navigate to Configuration -> FO Processing -> Font Mapping Set. Can also be done at data def and template level under Edit Configuration. Hierarchy is Site-> Data Def -> Template.
    15.     Select your new mapping set.
    16.     Make sure the font is not referenced under File->Properties->Custom in the RTF template file.
    17.     Select a temporary directory on your concurrent processing node (Configuration -> General). This needs to be a private area not shared by other processes, read writeable by the applmgr (owner of the $APPL_TOP file system). It should be fairly large 5 GB or 20x larger than any datafile being used. The fonts will be downloaded here the first time they are used.
    18.     Also at this site level select your font mapping set.
    19.     Upload a template that uses your special font and test using preview.

  • Pickin a linux server for work

    hey all!  my workplace is pretty windows centric, and we're deciding to slowly move towards linux and linux dev tools to save costs in licensing (cuz gcc kicks butt!)
    anyways, here's the criteria i need
    1) security
    2) stability
    3) support
    my co-workers do not know much about linux works, just a general idea.  i have to option of choosing whichever distro i deem best.  so far, my options include fedora, debian, ubuntu, slackware, arch.
    this is a standard server that i will be running.  so...subversion, apache, ssh, mysql, standard stuff, so package availability is not a problem.
    what do you guys think have having arch run as the server?  it seems like the bleeding-edgeness of arch but not make it a viable choice as a stable server.  but then again, i don't want it outdated like debian stable.
    i just tried installing ubuntu on my test system.  first let me give props to all the arch developers.  you really don't appreciate the beauty of arch until you get to see how many less steps are required to compile your own kernel and install it using the package manager.  nonetheless, i haven't had anything wrong happen with ubuntu.  although i am worried about the potential problems when i try to do a dist-upgrade (since ubuntu branches off from debian-sid and back in)
    anyways, do you guys have any ideas/suggestions?

    As your most familiar with Arch and Slackware, I would pick one of them. 
    The only drawback is if paid support is going to be a big issue.  However, especially if you have  a test machine available, you'll be happiest with what you know, and most comfortable with fixing it when things happen. 
    However, elastic dog makes the excellent point--even though consultants are often no more knowledgeable about a subject than you are, it shows you are making best effort--it also makes the bosses more comfortable, which can be important. 
    Arch is as or more secure than any of the other choices, simply because it has so few services running by default.  You can use firestarter or something to build a firewall that will be similar to a default RH or SuSE one.
    Arch's advantages are the small base install with an intelligent choice of base packages, and ease of updating.
    The only negative is the lack of "official" support. 
    I use Arch at work for some non-mission critical stuff.  I use FreeBSD on some higher end servers, because I am most familiar with it.  However, at times, we need a low end machine to work as a file server on one subnet or another, and at times like that the quick, small install and ease of adding samba with pacman led me to use Arch for those machines.  On the other hand, they're running nothing but samba and they don't really do anything else.
    Another brief Arch success story though--when one of the divisions had to change floors, the FreeBSD box that did DHCP for two floors had to be moved.  I prepared a small box with Arch, which probably took less than an hour from booting with the install CD, and threw it into place

    Hi All,
    EBS 11i
    RHEL 4.6
    Our EBS 11i is currently running on HP server with RHEL 4.6 OS and a single node only. This server was bought 6 years ago and lately it is showing performance degradation. We want to migrate/upgrade to a higher end latest model of HP and make it a multi-node. But the latest HP model only support a minimum RHEL 5 version.
    My question is, is cloning EBS 11i from RHEL 4.6 to RHEL 5 supported? How do I migrate EBS 11i with this kind of scenario?
    Thanks a lot

  • How to backup a Linux server over ssh using Leopard?

    I have a server running Linux, and my main machine is a Macbook running Leopard. I want to back up the entire root directory (including subdirectories) of the Linux server to an external HDD attached to Macbook.
    My initial thought was to mount the Linux server's root directory on Leopard using sshfs, and then use RSyncX to backup that mounted directory on external HDD attached to Leopard. Unfortunately sshfs mounted directories are not treated as "drives" by RsyncX (and a lot of other apps).
    Can someone help? Thanks!

    I am currently in the process of setting up a small form factor pc running a linux distro as my router/firewall and will be looking for a backup system on my network which is mostly mac based.
    I just googled 'timemachine for linux' and got a few good results.
    http://handsonhowto.com/2007/timemachine4linux/
    and also a tool call flyback
    You could also try setting up your backup drive as an NFS sharepoint.

    I know my post does not answer your issue directly but flyback is the solution I am going to try.

  • Oracle Secure Backup- Error during configuration on Linux server

    What about disk space on your database server, is that OK? How about free RAM on all the systems?
    You can also check other kernel settings to see if you are running out of kernel message buffer space or shared memory.

  • Advice needed for backup strategy for office

    My office is switching from PC to Mac (yay!) and I'm in charge of setting up the system. We'll be using 4 iMacs and a Mac Mini Server with ethernet connections. I'd like to ask what is recommended for backing up these computers.
    My thought would be to back up the iMacs separately from the server - is this definitely the way to go?
    I'm thinking to get a 3TB Time Capsule for the 4 iMacs so that Time Capsule will do automatic backups.
    - Is it OK to have 4 iMacs backup to one Time Capsule like this?
    As for the Mac Mini server, I'm not sure how to best back it up.
    Since it has two 1TB drives, I'm thinking of using one drive for data and having it automatically backup to the other internal drive. Any thoughts on this idea?
    Or, it is possible to connect an external USB drive to the Time Capsule's USB port, and have Time Machine backup the server to the external drive?
    Any advice is greatly appreciated!

    The TC is really a home solution.
    For business I think you should consider something extra.
    Although 4 computers and a server is not a big setup, it is worthwhile doing a more professional backup and use something more professional than Time Machine.
    For instance..
    http://www.retrospect.com/au/products/mac
    I have not used it.. but I see it recommended in business / larger installs. It is not cheap but well worth considering.
    I would not use the internal disk of the server for backup.
    As for the Mac Mini server, I'm not sure how to best back it up.
    Since it has two 1TB drives, I'm thinking of using one drive for data and having it automatically backup to the other internal drive. Any thoughts on this idea?
    You can raid the two disks if you don't need the capacity.
    But backup to a USB drive plugged in.. USB3 drives are cheap and speedy. Much more reliable than using network drives.
    Raid for integrity of working data.. backup to separate change over disks.
    So weekly you change over the USB drive for backup and store the other one at home.
    I'm thinking to get a 3TB Time Capsule for the 4 iMacs so that Time Capsule will do automatic backups.
    - Is it OK to have 4 iMacs backup to one Time Capsule like this?
    You can do this.. It is fine to have 4 Macs backup to it. But if you are not using the wireless router it is a waste.. you can just backup over network to the server.. TM works fine on network.
    You can buy another 3TB USB drive for backup of the clients.. normally though you want all the working data on the server and back that up. You are thinking a more peer to peer model.. once you introduce the server you can work on a more server client model where the current files are held on the server.

  • Sap Content server Direct Browser Access - docGet

    We use SAP Content Server for DMS doc storage. Docs are stored without digital signing.
    I am looking to access dms original files directly via web browser using the "docGet" command.
    My url looks as shown:
    http://pswdf009:1080/ContentServer/ContentServer.dll?docGet&pVersion=0045&contRep=K1&docId=361A524A3ECB5459E0000800099245EC
    When I call the url, browser does not seem to be able to read the file type of the server response. An "open/save" dialog appears and when "open" is selected a subsequent dialog appears asking which application to use to open the file. Once the correct application is chosen, the document is displayed correctly.
    Is there some way to instruct the browser the content-type is application/pdf?
    Will CSAdmin parameter changes have any impact?
    The browser is Internet Explorer 6.
    Any help is appreciated.

    Hi Roger,
    you may of course find an answer here.
    But mySAP PLM DMS is not a focus topic here (besides maybe connecting it into the SAP Portal and KM). Thus, you may be better off using a contact or a message to PLM.

  • "empty file" error with CS5, linux server and mavericks

    hello to the community,
    i'm the owner of a small online marketing agency.
    we have been using different macs here since 10.6. until mavericks with adobe CS 5 and a linux server for years.
    today i got a new MBP retina with mavericks and since now i have the following problem:
    - when i try to open a photoshop file on the server i get a "file is empty" error, when i open an illustrator file on the server illustrator crashes und when i open a pdf on the server with acrobat pro there comes a message that the file is corrupt. with acrobat reader i can open it.
    - i can open the exact files with all apps when they are on a local storage not an the server
    - i can open all files on the server with another mac with os x 10.6.
    so there must be a problem with the combination cs5-files, server and os 10.9. it's weird because with my old MBP i with also using mavericks and there was no problem.
    can anyone help me? it's really a problem!

    i found a workaround that seems to work!
    instead of connecting to the server with "smb" i connect with "cifs". so i force mavericks to connect using the old smb 1 instead of the buggy smb 2.

  • Lumira Server for BI Platform and Team/Edge consumption & licensing question

    Hi.  I have a few questions.
    Question 1:
    From my reading, I've heard that Lumira Edge/Team server may not be a part of BI-Suite License.  I read a Lumira Server ASUG Webcast recap by Tammy Powlas here (SAP Lumira Server for Teams Roadmap ASUG Webcast) over the weekend and one of the Q&A questions struck me:
    Q: Is this included with the BI Suite license from SAP?
    A: Lumira Server for Teams (Edge Edition) is not covered under BI Suite License. However, Lumira Server for BI Platform (RTC Planned in April) is covered under BI Suite licenses
    In a separate conversation late 2014, I thought I'd heard that Lumira Team/Edge server was supposed to be usable by BI Suite licensed customers, but it sounds like I'm mistaken?
    Question 2:
    Next, the second part of the statement gave me hope:
    However, Lumira Server for BI Platform (RTC Planned in April) is covered under BI Suite licenses
    I then looked at the Lumira Deployment Options for Departments Part 1 – ASUG Webcast by Tammy Powlas to get some more information on Lumira Server for BI Platform.  This slide gave me some hope (emphasis mine in green):
    But then I see some more information a little later:
    Is this slide to imply that the version without HANA (or HANA XS) for BI Platform will only really just serve as a user rights management and Lumira document repository?  And that if I want to view a Lumira document, I must still open from the Lumira Desktop client?
    It was suggested I start a new discussion thread to ask this licensing question about a product that's not out yet (but the slide says it's GA so I'm still confused) so here I am with my discussion thread!
    Hopefully someone can make me less confused.  I'm hoping the answer is as a BI-Suite customer that we do not have to make a decision to either invest in new Edge/Team licenses or buy HANA XS hardware to establish a beachhead of Lumira usage in our organization.  We've been struggling with promoting Lumira and the sharing piece has been the sore spot.

    Hi Michael
    You are right, it is confusing...
    I think it will be better to contact sales to get this explained as opposed to technical support people that monitor this SCN Space.
