Patch confirm problem in maintenance optimizer.

Dear Experts,
i had configured solution manager maintenance optimizer.
previously while starting i had a problem with
and it was solved.
After, going in to Solution_manager in the selected solution,
i had selected the server and component, for which i need to download the
support package files and upgrade my application components.
and after selecting the required files,i'm able to see the selected files in download
basket manager.But, i'm not able to see the files in popup coming to confirm the
components.
i have no idea on what went wrong.
i got stuck up here, since after confirming the selected packages,it will go to
Perform imlementation and to END.
anyway i had saved the status.
i request you to give your inputs for solving the problem.
one warning i'm getting while starting "solution_manager"
is as follows:-
Profile parameter icm/host_name_full is not set correctly (see long text)
thanking you in advance.

Hi,
I think you need to set the profile parameter "icm/host_name_full" in rz10 T-Code
in instance profile it should in the following manner <b>"host name of your server.your company name.com"</b>
e.g.:mycomputer.mycompany.com

Problem with Maintenance Optimizer...

Hello gurus,
I had a problem which I didn´t reached a solution...
When I create a new maintenance optimizer transaction and choose, on first step "Plan Maintenance", a type of Product Version I don´t have all systems which I configure on this Product Version on SMSY (System Landscape Directory).
For instance: I configure in SMSY the Product version (group) SAP ECC 6.0 which contains three systems DEV ; QAS ; PRD.
When I open/create a new maintenance optimizer transaction and choose the SAP ECC 6.0 I only see one system, the DEV system, within his, and I want to see all three systems which I configure in SMSY!
Help me please...! TKS
Best regards,
Joao Dimas

I´m newest in SAP and still I have difficulties on search sometimes some things...

it comes up an error, saying the table does not contain any data. Do i need to do the SLM configuration for MOPZ to work?
Has anyone seen this error earlier. Any inputs would be of great help.

Assign patch levels for component versions of system: Maintenance Optimizer

Hello,
I am trying to have Maintenance Optimizer check for what files I need to download. However, I get the following error:
Assign patch levels for component versions of system SXM.
I susepect that the problem really lies in the fact that the "SP Levels" in the "Software Components" tab is not populated in SMSY.
Does something read that information from the child system and populate the data automatically? This is a new system install, and perhaps a step was missed in solman.
Thanks,
John

Hi John,
MOPZ directs you to SAP Software Download Center in order to show you the lastest status and available packages.
If you are not seeing the packages perhaps you created you satellite system at solution manager pointing to the wrong product/version.
MOPZ is created to point you to the available Support Package Stacks for its products.
Normally one creates a system in solution manager defining it as an ECC server ( this does not have a download page for MOPZ ) when the correct assignment would be SAP ERP ( this last has a download page for MOPZ ).
If this is your case, you´ll need to redefine the satellite system again in our solution manager.
hope this helps.

Into the maintenance optimizer, i can't update my systems.
Error : "System has not been registred in the SLM"
Procedure
1. Run transaction code /TMWFLOW/MOPZCFG;
2. Start the Multiple Software Lifecycle Manager Configuration Assistant;
3. Select an SLM or create a new SLM;
4. Choose "SLM Configuration" and register these systems in the SLM.
When i do this procedure,when i saved i had this message :
ICF Error when receiving the response : ICM_HTTP_CONNECTION_FAILED
When i do an SLM check :
The SLM Web services are unavailable.
In the sm59 my RFC HTTP created automaticlly doesn't work...
Could someone help me to correct my problem step by step ?
What shall i have to do first?
thanks

No problem for the help.
I'm glad to have help someone who can give me my first 6 or 10 points !
We had many problems in EHP1 SP18 and we found many notes that explain us that our problems will be solved in SP19 only, but i don't remember wich one...
I try to apply the documentation but i cannot configure the https accept because of the librairy libsapcrypto. The documentation tell us to go to download it on the website but we don't have the rights and you have to request this librairy to waldorf only !
With the sp19, the solman_setup appears and correct many problems, but not the SLM problems : services are unavailable !
Do you test your services in VA like i said ? Mine doesn't works...

Problem with activating Maintenance Optimizer

I have reached the final stage of the configuration of the maintenance
optimizer. I have implemented all of the required notes in the MOPZ
collective note 1024932 (Notes 1008717 - HMTLViewer: Postdata of
length more than 255 gets truncated, (note 950975 is n/a for my system
we have SAPGUI 7.1), Note 975510 - Corrections for calls/interfaces
implmented incorrectly, and 1004691 - SNOTE:
OBJECTS_OBJREF_NOT_ASSIGNED when you implement a note, and the strongly
recommended note 997780 - Maintenance Optimizer: Checks that should
not be executed.
When I try to run the report SM_PREP_MAINTENANCE_OPTIMIZER after
implementing note 990534, I get the following error:
For object SOLAR, no sub-object SOLMAN_CONFIG is maintained
Message no. BL011
Diagnosis
An application log entry is to be made for sub-object SOLMAN_CONFIG of
the object SOLAR. This sub-object is, however, not maintained for
object SOLAR.
Objects and subobjects of the application log are created using
transaction SLG0.
System Response
The program had to be cancelled.
Procedure
Inform the system administrator
I have verified all of the steps in the document "Step by Step
Configuration of the Maintenance Optimizer". I have also done the
basic IMG settings under Solution Manager in the IMG. I did not
do "Activate integration with the Change Request Management". We are
not using Change Request Management.
Has anyone seen this type of message before? I could do the BC Sets manually but I want to use the report.

Thanks Lars. I opened a ticket with SAP and it looks like you can ignore this:
Hello,
You can ignore the message. It is displayed because when the report
runs we try to write the log to the sub-object SOLMAN_CONFIG, which does not exists with Support Package 9, due to it you get the message.
Regarding the 02 options to configure the Maintenance Optimizer it
just occurs becasue the report was not available with Support Package
9 of SAP Solution Manager, however due to the increasing number of
customers that required an easier configuration for the Maintenance
Optimizer we decided to make the report available through the note.
So there is not difference between the 02 configuration options.
The report does exactly the steps described in the alternative
configuration.
I'll give you full points!!

Solution manager "Maintenance Optimizer" System Logical Component

Hello friends!
I have some troubles with my Solution Manager!
After SPS17 installation I don't see any system in SOLUTION_MANAGER transaction.
Steps for reconstructions:
1) start tcode SOLUTION_MANAGER
2) select my solution from list (the same like in tcode dswp)
3) goto Change Management --> Support Package Stacks --> Maintenance Optimizer
4) chose product version SAP ERP 6.0 (it is assigned to my solution)
5) in appears grid I don't see system (see below)
I----II--
I
I_V_I_System_I_Logical Component_I
Before installation I can select my solution. Now it's not critical because I can confirm downloads...

Hi Luke!
I didn't solve this problem...
But I've only one system in my solution, and, as I understand, it may not be showed. But I may be wrong...

Maintenance Optimizer = Unnecessary Overhead

Who in the world came up with an idea to make it mandatory to use Maintenance Optimizer for SAP patches? There's no real value in this tool except additional bureaucracy. We still have to download support packages & import them manually. So where's the benefit?
First, we are now forced to spend a week to patch Solution Manager to the required level (although we could safely ignore it until now - we don't use Solution Manager). And then the support package with the Maintenance Optimizer included appears to be buggy and counterintuitive to configure (including the latest one - Level 11)
Maintenance Optimizer is making our life more difficult, not easier. It was clear and simple to download the support packages one-by-one - only what we need. So why to take out a working, trusted and efficient mechanism?
Just expressing my serious disappointment. Make the Maintenance Optimizer optional, not mandatory - hope someone from SAP will read it.

Hi Marek (and all others),
I've said and communicated that in the past also - here, in the OSS, to the sales reps (they even didn't know it's mandatory as of 2nd of April), to the "complaint management", on official SAP events, in the DSAG et al - no luck whatsoever, everybody is totally convinced, that THIS tool, which is even more complex than everything we have in our company, is THE solution for EVERY problem. The main problem is in my eyes, that the SolMan is the biggest problem itself. The IDEA is not generally bad, but the implementation is unfinished, overly complex, non-intuitive and lacks a consistent setup and "view". In my eyes it's just a conglomerate of transactions put together in "some form" without a real thread.
Criticism and customer input IS being heard here and things became "easier" already but the fact, that customers are URGED to implement SolMan, no matter if they have already another ticket system, monitoring infrastructure, implementation tools, project management etc. is the wrong way, it's pure pretentiousness. And even if you don't use anything of those nice features, it's WAY too bloated to just download SPs.
And you still don't need SolMan to download - you can still select them one-by-one without everything, you just have to download from the download basket instead of direct clicking on a link in the browser, that's the only change so far and I'm VERY happy with that.
Don't expect some official person from SAP stating on this here, that decision was made at management level @ SAP and I'm sure that SAP internally there are many people thinking the same way but via customers the strategy must be consistently communicated and thus nobody from SAP here will say anything against it, even if they think likewise.
I still have hopes, that, after Agassi is gone and Plattner is back (well, at least a bit), winds will change again back to business, back to quality and back to less intrusive and less presumptuous customer interaction.

SAP Maintenance Optimizer without saprouter

Hi Experts,
Is it possible to approve patches without connection to SAP via saprouter?
We have a strong security policies and we have not a possibility to use saprouter for connection to SAP. We installed and customized Solution Manager 4.0 and we want only approve our basket on SAP Market Place. Is it possible or not?
Best regards,
Alexander Nikolaew.

Hi, all
in FAQ about MOPZ I red about secure RFC connection. What does it meen?
link: https://websmp102.sap-ag.de/mopz (FAQ about Maintenance Optimizer):
27. How can customers with strong security policies use Maintenance Optimizer?
To work with Maintenance Optimizer, it needs to be connected via secure RFC connection to SAP. Without this, it is impossible to use Maintenance Optimizer as collaboration platform. However, there are customers with high security requirements. Their procedure can be as follows:
1. Customer logs on to SAP Service Marketplace from a PC. This may be done in an environment even without connection to SAP Solution Manager.
2. Customer adds all required files to the download basket.
3. Customer then changes to a PC with connection to SAP Solution Manager and confirms the download of the data. For more information about secure RFC connection please refer to IMG in SAP Solution Manager.
4. The files are available for download and can be downloaded from the PC with a connection to the SAP Service Marketplace.
Best regards,
Alexander Nikolaev.

Local logical system is not defined-Maintenance Optimizer Config

Hi,
When I try to configure Maintenance Optimizer in SAP Solution Manager 7, it gives me an error saying "Local logical system is not defined"
But I have created a Logical client using SCC4.
And the other thing is for this created client, does not have any users on this client, If I run,
SQL> select bname, UFKLAG from sapsr3.usr02 where mandt='400';
Answer is "no rows selected"
So I cannot even login in to my new client as well. I tried with SAP/PASS no use. I tried to re-set sap by deleteing it nothing helped.
my login/no_automatic_user_sapstar parameter also have 0 (But this is in Red, I dont know why its like that)
Please help me to rectify both these issues. Issue with Maintenance Optimizer and loggin in to the new client.
Thank you!

First of all, 'Logical System' and 'Logical Client' are two different things.
For Client Problem:
You did create a client in SCC4.
1. did you create a logical system via BD54 and then did you assign that logical system to this newly created client ?
2. did you perform a local client copy to put data into this new client from an old or from a standard client like 000 ?
If you didn't perform above two things, then please do. Only then, you will be able to see some data in this client and will be able to to select statements, And, obviously the SAP*/PASS login (login/no_automatic_user_sapstar should be 0 after reactivation of profile and restart of the instance)
For MOpz issue:
Could you please search in sap marketplace for any particular note specific to MOpz ?

What is best practice for using Maintenance Optimizer to download SPS + EhP

SAP indicates in note 1095233 and many other documents that the best practice is to implement an EhP along with an SP Stack in the same queue. Furthermore, the only way to download the components of an EhP is via Maintenance Optimizer. However, in step 2 (Calculate download files automatically) you must choose either Maintenance (SPS) or Enhancement Package Installation (EhP); there is no way to tell Maintenance Optimizer that you want to download both SPS and EhP.
In developing the process for my team I circumvented the problem by saying to select Maintenance first to get the SPS into the Download Basket and follow that with selecting Enhancement Package Installation to get the EhP into the Download Basket. The plan would be to include all the downloads in the SPAM/SAINT queue with the expectation that SPAM/SAINT will be able to determine what must be included.
I'm wondering now whether that is a legitimate way to approach this and I am hoping others will share their process.
Thanks,
Terry McCann

Actually, I don't believe you will get the entire SP Stack for ERP 6, you only get those pieces of the stack that are required for the Technical Usages you select for the EhP. I'm basing that on my observation that you get a different subset of the files making up the stack depending upon your TU selection. Also, note 1095233 specifically states:
If now the corrections included in the enhancement package 3 correspond to ERP 6.0 SP level 11, SAP recommends to update also the parts of your system to SP level 11 which you do not want to update to enhancement package 3 to achieve a consistent correction level in all parts of your application: SAP recommends to update all software components to the correction status corresponding to SAP ERP 6.0 Support Package Stack 11 with the installation of SAP enhancement package 3 for SAP ERP 6.0.
Thanks,
Terry
