Offline transport of transport requests to file on Client-PC and re-import

Hi all,
for maintenance reasons, we copied a BW system in a Virtual Machine (VM) and made some BI-IP developments there (new InfoObjects, InfoAreas, DSOs, Cubes, MultiCubes, aggregation levels, filters, planning functions, queries etc.). The VM is "offline" with no transport system in place so far (all BW objects should have been saved to $TEMP). Thus, we cannot use SAP standard nor BW transport systems due to offline environment.
Now we set up a new BW server we want to "copy" our developments from the VM to.
What we are looking for:
(1)how can we export transport requests to a file on a client PC (VM) and then re-import the file on the other physical server again to further use our previous developments (no source systems in use)?
(2) any other best practice approach to that scenario
I already found an entry in another thread, which covers a similar issue but does not fully meet my requirements in my point of view: http://it.toolbox.com/wiki/index.php/Upload_and_download_SAP_transport_request .
Would be great if anyone has a solution to that scenario. If you need further details for clarification, please let me know.
Thanks in advance.
Stefan.

  • Is it possible to transport requests to 2 QA clients with ChaRM?

    Hi
    If there are 2 QA clients and requests need to be tranported to both clients at the same time,
    can SolMan ChaRM handle this?
    Transport route is as follows.  
    DEV_______QA_______PRD
    200___->__300___->_100
    ______--->__500
    Anybody has experience?  
    My version is SolMan 7.0 SP16
    Thank you

    hello,
    I have the same behaviour in my landscape. Only the systems in the main path is available in SDHF task list
    I would say this is normal.
    Why is this normal ?
    Because the ur.gent correction is to be considered like an emergency process that doesn't superseed the normal maintenance but that complement it to have a faster change in place.
    That means the ur.gent transport will follow the normal maintance process anyway
    If you miss the ur.gent transport in the other QA client you may schedule the following task in your project tasklist
    /TMWFLOW/SCMA_BTCH_SYNC_TEST or online
    /TMWFLOW/SCMA_TRIMP_SYNC_TEST
    This is not obvious how this is working and I am currently evaluating this solution in another thread
    [Is it possible to transport requests to 2 QA clients with ChaRM?|Is it possible to transport requests to 2 QA clients with ChaRM?]
    on your side you may also want to evaluate this tasks ?

  • Aperture import plug-in won't run.  After examining my library the number of image files stays at "undetermined" and the import button stays greyed out.  Any thoughts?

    Aperture import plug-in won't run.  After examining my library the number of image files stays at "undetermined" and the import button stays greyed out.  Any thoughts?

    Others have the same issue, with the import button being grayed out.  My trail copy expired, but I believe by poking around in the options and selecting another Aperture library and re-selecting, I was able to continue.
    The problem is common enough, that hopefully Adobe will address.  In the mean time, try repairing your Aperture library, checking permissions, exporting a subset of your library for a test, or try putting that library subset on an external drive.  (Can usually avoid permissions issues.)

  • Not able to view transport request tpz file for importing in Production

    Hi Experts,
    I am using PI 7.0. I am facing a problem while transporting a request to Production environment. I am using File Level Transport. When I create a transport file, it is successfully created in development system's /export location. Basis team moves the file production system's /import directory.
    But here I am not able to see the imported file via Tool->import design/configuration objects , in Production environment. I have tried to use user Id's which have admin level authorizations, still I cannot see the file.
    Background - A couple of weeks back, there was an issue with cluster service going down, and we had to manually register the  Exchange infrastructure in SLD. New associations were created as per SAP note - #764176 'Manual correction of XI content in SLD'. We were able to transport to Production environment before this issue occurred.
    Please help !

  • Problem in Releasing/Transporting Request from Cust & Development Client

    Hi,
    I had made up a report and i trying to transport it into the PRD Server but the problem when i use Tcode SE09 and there i clicked on the su-request ID it got released and when i clicked on main request ID it has givne run time error. But again i execute the transaction code SE09 and tried to realease the main request ID ,it is not allowing me to do it as a Message displays :-
    Task DEVK904185 has the status "Release started"
    I dont know why it is happening ? I had relaesed a lot of request before but never faced a problem like that.
    Please guide me how to solve this tranport problem..
    Edited by: nav009 on Dec 23, 2009 7:46 AM

    Hi Juan,
    The error which had came during the releasing of main request id was:-
    Short text
        Operating system cannot close file "\\piic071\sapmnt\trans\tmp\DEVE904185.DEV"
    What happened?
        Resource bottleneck
        The current program "SAPLSLOG" had to be terminated because
        a capacity limit has been reached.
    I am currently at display mode of request in which there is a tab named object in which there are 2 lines present. These are:-
    1. Comment Entry : Released ; Program ID : CORR(Comment Automatic) ; Object Id:  RELE(Comment Entry: Released);
         Object Name:  DEVK904186 20091223 115834 ABAPER
    2.  Program.Program ID : R3TR(OBJECT) ; Object Type : PROG ; Object Name: ZBDC_MM01_R1ZBDC_MM01_R1
    The package which we use is ZABAP which is used to transport all the creations and modifications it to the PRD Server...
    Is there any way of solving this issue......

    Hi Nayeem,
    Thanks for reply, i visited on your suggested pages but still not able to create another consolidation route.
    could you please see the attached screen of STMS.
    i am able to define target client to import but not able to define Integration system with client as DEV 150.
    also we implemented CHARM on SOLMAN 7.1 SP8.

  • The correct way to delete old transport request record ?

    Dear all,
    We want to delete old transport request record before 2008 (two years before) of our system.
    We learn that we should delete the records in the below two path:
    /usr/sap/trans/data
    /usr/sap/trans/cofiles
    Our target is that we will not see the old record after deleting in our PRD system.
    Normally, we see the transport request record in system by this way:
    STMS -->  import overview --> PRD --> Import Queue   system PRD --> Import history
    Our question is do we need to restart our system after delete the record to refresh the Import history?
    We have not delete the record now.
    Any experienced or expert, please kindly give advice.
    Regards,
    Allen

    Hello Allen,
    there are some notes and documentations for this process. Deleting the files from /cofiles and /data will not erase the request from the import history, as you already know.
    You should follow note #41732 to have the requests/data completely deleted from your system. There is a lot of complementary reading in notes #7224, #556734, #189841, etc.
    Note that you can remove the request from the import queue, import history, data and cofiles subdirectory, but still have it on the <SID> buffer (located in  /usr/sap/trans/buffer/<SID>). If this happens to you, please save a copy of the buffer file <SID>, then create a new, blank file named <SID> at a time when the import queue is empty (VERY IMPORTANT). Or, alternatively, please excute the tp cleanbuffer FIL command (which will erase the requests that are not found in /data and /cofiles directories).
    --> Please test this first on a test system, not directly on a productive environment.
    This should be enough to delete old transport requests on your system.
    Best regards,
    Tomas Black

  • STMS: Add a great number of transport requests to the queue

    Hi everybody!
    we make a system copy and I have two questions regarding this.
    1. After the system has been copied, we have to add a great number of transport requests to the transport queue (transaction STMS). Is there a report to to this?
    2. Of course, the transport requests added to the queue have to be imported. Is it possible to mark them all at a time and then start the import? I mean, if one specific object (for instance a reportsource) is part of several transport requests, does the STMS ensure that they are imported in the correct order, so that the following won't happen: a imported object is overwritten by a older version.
    Thanks for your help in advance.
    Regards
    CHRIS

    As Sunny said you can do it from OS as there is no SAP program. Create a file with the all transports no. that you want to add to the buffer at the OS level. Here is the script that we use:
    for i in `cat file_name`
    do
    tp addtobuffer $i SID client=xxx pf=TP_DOMAIN_SID.PFL
    done
    For you second question, the sequence of import into the system will be based on how they are listed in the STMS queue. So first transports goes first then the second, third and so on.
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks,
    Naveed

  • Import GP Local Transport Request  Package

    Hi, SDN Expert.
    I am trying to move my GP Process from one system to another system.
    I have create the transport package in sda format in to my local drive through "GP Transport" --> "Create transport request". When I tried to import the transport package through  "GP Transport" --> "Import transport request". The only option for me to import the package is through End Point Alias.  I do not have the End Point Alias setup, as I plan to import the transport package locally.
    My question is what is the right channel to import the sda package that I have exported? Is that through "GP Transport" --> "Import transport request" (but I don't see that option to import sda). Or I can use SDM tool to do so?
    Thanks,
    KC

    Hello,
    if you are using netweaver 7.0 :
    After exporting there is an option "download sca file", click there , download it to your pc and then you will have to use SDM to upload it in the destination system.
    Then you have to release the transported objects:
    After uploading it, log in into the destination system , go to guided procedures -> administration -> Import transport requests --> go to the process you transported and select it so you can release it for use.
    Regards,

  • Datafile missing for a Transport Request

    Dear Sir,
    We created a Transport Request directly in our Quality Server and subsequently using SE10 we released the Transport Request also .   However we find that there is no Data File & CoFile are found on the Quality Server for this request .
    Due to this , we can not import the request in our production server also .
    Kindly help us pl .

    Sonia Agarwala

    Hello,
    First check the type of your transport request, probably it will be a "local transport" request.
    Local transport requests do not generate data and cofiles when they are released.
    Probably your current TMS setup does not allow you to release transports from the QA system.
    What you can always do is creating a transport of type : "Transport of copies" and manually add your objects you want to transport.
    Do not forget to fill in the "target" field in your transport, otherwise when you release it it will be again a local transport without data and cofile.
    [https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/28967|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/28967]

  • Take backup of transport request to a cd

    Hello All
    How can we take the backup of transport requests for eg  Program name is ZQAS_XXX_XXX and transport request SIDK902343.  Please let me know the step by step process to take the backup of the transport request to a CD.
    Is it just by coping the corresponding files with same name as transport request in /usr/sap/trans/data  and /usr/sap/trans/cofiles ?
    Please let me know the step by step process.

    Thank you very much reyes
    So I will copy the corresponding datafile and cofile of the transport request from /usr/sap/trans/cofile and /usr/sap/trans/data  and copy that to a cd.  I hope this will be enough to take the backup from source system.
    And for uploading that transport request to target system, I will do as you said.
    Thank you for the help .

  • How to move a transport request from one client to the other

    Hi,
    I created a new transport request with a lot of elements (and also some modifications), but I made it in the "wrong" client on the system. Now I have the question if there is any possibility to change the client-relation of a  transport request via SE01 (or similar transaction). Copy and Paste of the element list isn't the optimal way, because there are also table contents in the transport request.
    Can you give me a hint?
    Thank you
    Kind regards
    Markus

    Yes you can change the traget client.
    Check the TR properties and set the taget client .
