PCD Content Transport Issues

Hi All,
We have an issue while transporting PCD content.
The PCD content is the delta link copy of the Business Package (from Content Provided by SAP folder). We have copied the standard content to custom folder as delta link and did few modifications on the roles.
NOTE: The name space of the PCD content is not changed. It remains "com.sap.pct"
We were able to transport this successfully to the quality portals earlier via CTS transport process.
Now, we had a change to make in the development and after making the change when we are trying to transport the content via CTS, it is not getting imported to the Q portals.
I have searched on the transport set up and limitations and came to know that any PCD object with sap namespace would not be exported to the package. But, I was able to export the content to the transport request earlier as well as now. Earlier, when we did this, it got successfully imported to the Q portals. But, now it is throwing error.
We are using SAP NW Portal 7.3.
****Also, can any one please help me understand if this transport limitation of not able to transport PCD objects with sap namespace applies to 'File System' mode of transport as well? I am asking this because we are able to transport successfully via File System transport.
Thanks in advance for all your replies and support regarding this.
Regards,
Murthy.

hi
You can only export resource bundles if you have write permission for these objects. You can find resource bundles in the Portal Catalog by calling them with System Administration ® Permissions. All administrators other than the superadministrator can access the folder for the resource bundles as read-only in the standard delivery.

KM Content - Transport issue

Hi,
I have created some KM Content (Directory structure like folders, sub folders) in our Dev environment and then assigned them to Iviews.
Every thing is working good, but I have transported the iViews to Quality but the directory structure like folders and sub folders are not transported. I am seeing the old structure in Quality.
I am transporting my iviews through transport packages and then export. I have checked that my iViews are transported properly but not the KM content.
Could you please suggest how to transport the folders/sub folders which I made in Dev.
Thanks,

Thanks, my issue is resolved and now I have the folders in QAS which I have in Dev.
Now i have one more question.
In this process all of our Dev Test documents which we have upload for testing purpose, were also moved. Now Do we need to move the same thing or production or we need to export one more time in Qas and then import that file.
Because I think if we move the existing export file to PROD which was moved to QAS, then we will have our test files moved to produciton - which we don't want.
What is the recommended way to achieve this.
Thanks,

Pcd content transport

Hi,
I am transporting the content from dev to qa. I was looking into pcdstartup.properties.. found a couple which i didnt understand.
1. Pcd.TransportApplication.Export.ExcludeSystemObjects
in doc, it is said that it decides whether or not the objects in the SAP namespace initially delivered by SAP are excluded from the export.
but the property
Pcd.TransportApplication.ProtectedNamespaces already provides that, i.e. this already avoids the exporting of portal content in com.sap namespace.
could someone please distingush between these two,
2. Pcd.TransportApplication.Export.ExcludeObjectTypes
AfterRuleProcessing
and Pcd.TransportApplication.Export.
ExcludeObjectTypes
the difference would be transporitng resource bundles, but why would someone just transport resource bundles in a par file, without transporting the actual par file.
could some please clarify this to me
thank you

Content transport routes

I have a Scenario and would like to know if this is possible using standard SAP transportation tools.
System1
A1/
A2----
System 2
A3
\________ System 3
A1/A2 and A3 are JAVA packages developed on System0.While releasing the package , we want that A1 should go to System1 , A2 should go to System 2 and A3 should goto system 4...
Please help me in understanding if this is possible and if you can provide high level steps would be Great.
Regards!

Hi Gaurav,
If you want to transport PCD content to another system go to System Administration/Transport/Transport Package/Export. In PCD tree in any place create transport package and add to it objects which you need (folders, roles, worksets, iviews and so on) and save transport package file localy on your computer or server. After that go to the system where you want to locate your content. Go to System Administration/Transport/Transport Package/Import If you save tranport file localy on your computer chose client and upload tranport file. That is all, transportation is complete.

Email Notification need anyone changes the PCD content..

Hello,
Can someone give me a solution for this issue.
An email should be sent to a person if someone has changed the PCD content. Can be an iveiw property, role property, workset property etc,.
Or if any thing is created or modified in PCD i should get an email notification that so and so content has been modified by so and so person.
Regards,
Krishna

Hello Krishna,
As far as regarding to your question there is no built in functionality with portal. Email notification for subscription and notification service can be configured in the portal as:
Sys admin - System Configuration - Knowledge Management-Content Management - Utilities-channels - email channels by this you can configure the communication channels available in the portal. However this is used to send information to the users.
Also the email notifications are used in the User Management where the user profile changes can be tracked by the Administrator, similarly for tasks and notification's we can configure the UWL for the email communication.
Some of the useful links are:

Creating An Import File For UME From Excel
In these there are threads which explain you some concepts of Collaboration rooms by which you can track the details of PCD and also like the System landscape monitoring.
I hope this information would give you an idea as of how email channel could be used in portal where in as specific to your question i think we need to build an application and try integrate it with portal to test it.
Thanks,
Aparna

Problems with Pcd Content after restore EP Portal with online Backup

Dear Colleagues,
We have problems to show Pcd Content (Browse and Search) of the Content Administration tab of the EP Portal after restore with a online Backup during Disaster Recovery Test.
Restore has become on a mirror system of Production environment. Ours EP Portal is a cluster system with the following configuration:
Production landscape:
Node 1
Disk K:\ SAP SCS directory. (Clustered)
Disk E:\ SAP Central Instance directory (Local)
Node 2
Disk E:\ SAP Dialogue Instance directory (Local)
Disk M:\ SQL Datafiles. (Clustered)
Disk L:\ SQL Logfiles. (Clustered)
Disaster Recovery landscape:
Only a Node
Disk K:\ SAP SCS directory. (Clustered)
Disk E:\ SAP Central Instance directory (Local)
Disk M:\ SQL Datafiles
Disk L:\ SQL Logfiles
Portal Version
J2EE Engine = 6.40 PatchLevel 105424.313
Portal = 6.0.18.0.0
After restore, the data base as the SAP application starts
correctly but when logon in the Portal, the Pcd Content of Content Administration tab
and to other tabs with similar information is not shown.
After restore it can be necessary to reactivate some type of configuration, links, etc?, for this type of restore is better to make a backup offline instead of online one?
We are thankful for any information on the matter.
Thanks,
Regards.
Rafa R.R.

The issue was solved with a offline backup.

SLD Transport issue

Hi All,
I have transport issue with SLD objects. I have different SLD's for my Development and Quality.
1) Is CMS a option to transport the SLD objects like Business systems and Technical systems.
2) I have technical System XYZ on Development system with 2 SWCV's installed for it but in the Quality i have for the same system XYZ i have three SWCV's installed, now if i transport the technical system XYZ from Development to Quality i want the additional SWCV installed for XYZ to be removed, but this is not happening, i even tried to transport the concerned SWCV and Product from Developmen to quality still the installed systems doesnt change as Desired.
Please tell me if its possible and how can be achieved.
Thanks and Regards,
Raj.

Hi,
Two types of transport mechanism are used in PI.
File transport method.
CMS transport method.
One upcoming is CTS+.
Perform the following to import/export ID objects.
1. To export or import directory objects, call the configuration maintenance screen of the Integration Builder.
2. Call the context menu for an object in a collaboration profile in the Integration Builder navigation tree and choose Export.or choose Tools ® Export Configuration Objects
3. Select the Transport Using File System mode and follow the wizards instructions. When selecting individual objects, you can use drag and drop to drag the objects from the navigation tree and drop them in the object selection field.
The Integration Builder saves a binary export file with the suffix tpz in the export directory of the directory server
Do not change the file name of the export file. If you do, the Integration Builder will not accept it as the appropriate file when you import.
4. To import the export file(s) to another Integration Directory, first copy or move it to the import directory of the target directory.
5. Call the configuration maintenance screen of the Integration Builder for the target directory. Choose Tools ® Import Configuration Objects...
6. Select the export file saved in the import directory by using the dialog box that appears.
If the import is successful, the export file is moved to the subdirectory Configuring Groups and Transport Targets
Configure the CMS:

Part 2: Flat files and Business Contents: Any issues with this scenario?

I will appreciate some clarification on the some points made in response to my previous post "Flat files and Business Contents: Any issues with this scenario?"
1.
" ...youd better analyze those cubes for data redundancy and presence of data youll never use. " I will appreciate some clarification on the type of analysis you are referring to. Examples will help.
2.
"If you want to combine several found IOs in your custom dataprovider, then again you must know (or figure out) relationships between these IOs." I will appreciate some clarification on the type of relationship you are referring to. Examples will help.
3.
I am a bit confused with "..include into ODS structure ALL fields required for the cube" but you also noted noted that "...except navigational attributes and chars and KFs that are going to be determined in TRs or URs."
If you exclude ALL these, haven't you excluded all the fields you included in the ODS structure?
4.
"Consider carefully the ODS key fields selection. Their combination should not allow data aggregation that you dont need."
I may be missing the point here, I understand that you need to select the fields which will form the unique ID for the records in the ODS under the Key Field (please correct me if I am wrong with the purpose of the Key Field), but I don't understand the discussion of "aggregation" in the context.
Thanks in advance

Hallo
I try to give some exaplanation based on the previous answer.
1. Data redundancy - make sure you do not store the same information. does not make sense to have data redundanty across you Data Warehouse. this is also a cost. just sotre the same information one time if you get all what you need.
2. whatwhever you build you dp, which consist of IO, you need to know with kind of relation (1:1 or 1:n - n:n and so on) exist between them. that will help you when you model you infoprovider. For example I would never pit togheter IO (n:m) in the same dimension if you expect an high number of cardinality. Sometime an IO can be an attribute of another one (depend on relation. For example
Business Partner and his Address. Usually you have a relation 1:1, in this case address is an attribute of BParten and store it in the Masterdata instead then DP
3. Sometime when you load from ODS to CUBE, you can fill some IO (which are in the infocube and not in the ODS)through ABAP routine in TR-Start Routine of Update Rule. Does not make sense to include these IO in the ODS as they are NULL or Blank (the deault value). This can happen when for example, you first load in the ODS (Price and Quantity) and then you calculate Sell price later (Price * Quantity). of course it could be doen also in the Bex. Depends on other factors (Performance - Loaidng -Sizing)
4. Make sure that the KEY definition of ODS is accordingly to the data otherwise you will aggregate the data and later maybe if you need the detail you miss it.
for example: customer - product - Distr Chan - Sell Price
if each Customer can buy each product for any Distrution Channel, then when you build your ODS(Customer - Product and Distribution must be KEY) otherwise (if you have only Customer - Product KEY for example) you will lose the details for Distribution Channel.
I hope eveyrhting is clear

Mike

PCD Content missing after cleanup

Hi all,
I'm working at a customer where they cleaned up their PCD content a while ago. Basically they created a new main structure under ''portal_content' and restructured everything in here. They use a customized portal desktop that contains their own look and feel. This is assigned via the Portal Rule collection and everything is working fine.
However, there are a few users that receive an error message as soon as they login, when they refresh the page it is working fine. When you look in the log files you see the following messages very regularly:
[EXCEPTION]
com.sapportals.portal.prt.runtime.PortalRuntimeException: iView not found: pcd:portal_content/abcde/group/layout/abcde_portal_desktop/frameworkPages/abcde_default_frameworkpage/com.sap.portal.innerpage
this one is pointing to the old location, which indeed does not exist anymore. But does anyone know how to find out what is refering to the old location? I also thought about a caching problem, however, the portal was restarted already multiple times in meantime so I doubt that as well.
Although the end users that get the error only need to refresh once it is still an annoying problem, any help is appreciated.
Regards,
Nico...

Dear Nico,
Hope you are doing good.
Just try the below:
1)
Try the PCD inspector. this should help you administer and make the necessary changed in the PCD.
[http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/de/47/a4a442dc030e31e10000000a1550b0/frameset.htm]
and
[https://cw.sdn.sap.com/cw/docs/DOC-113769]
2)
Also try the below note. This will sync the DB data with the FS from scratch and should solve this as well:

Thank you and have a nice day :).

Deleting PCD content recursively

Hi,
How can I delete PCD contents starting from a given PCD folder (com.sap.portal.pcd.gl.GlContext) using the "upload content and actions" technique.
Thanks!
Platon.

Hi Vinoth,
thanks so much! However I know this document already...
I tried:
[code]
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1" ?>
<GenericCreator author="author" ignore="false" report.level="fail" mode="clean" createMode="3" version="0.1" default.locale="en" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
<Property name="parentPath" value="portal_content/other_vendors/every_user/com.mc" />
<Property name="locale" value="de" />
<Context name="com.mc.integration" title="Integration" objectClass="com.sap.portal.pcd.gl.GlContext" parent="$" ignore="true">
</Context>
</GenericCreator>
[/code]
May be I made a misstake ???

Integrating PCD Content into Web Page Composer

Hi,
I am following the link to [wpc link|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/EN/06/4776399abf4b73945acb8fb4f41473/frameset.htm] to integrate PCD Content into WPC.
I have deactivated "Hide in Root Folder " check in PCD Repository properties in KM and restarted the portal server. Still I am not able to create an entry point the for the portal content (logged in as 'administrator'). Is there any other settings I am missing?

For creating site specific entry points, I could see the following procedure in the SAP Help ddocs
1.      Navigate to the /Web Content/Sites//Entry Points folder.
       2.      Choose New ® Link.
       3.      Choose Browse... and select the folder containing shared Web content.
       4.      Enter a name for the entry point to appear in the Web content browser and choose Save.
Is this not working out?
Or do you need anything else?
Thanks

Create PCD content

Hi all,
I have to develop a Web Dynpro tool which should create PCD content. Do you know where I can get more information about the PCD structure and how to implement new content in this structure? Where can I find code samples or tutorials for that?
Thanx and regards,
Thomas

Hi Thomas,
see http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/de/df/eb5c42da4de92ce10000000a1550b0/frameset.htm and around. Anyhow, using WD for portal internals does not sound very reasonable.
Hope it helps
