Hi Ree,
As I mentioned in my previous reply it is working perfectly for me. The import is creating the required files in the PCD.
Let me explain how it is done.
Create a TP
Create a folder and add the required files(Workset,pages, iviews etc) to the the folder.
add the folder with all the contents(select 'Add all objects to transport package' from the content menu) to the TP.
Export the TP. give a name of your choice(removing the numbers)
Download it to the local machine using the dowmload link.
the file will be saved as a TPName.epa in your local drive.
in import, select 'client' for Source for Package Files.
brose and select the TPName.epa file.
upload the file, and you can see the contents.
then import it to the new environment. Now the complete folder stucture will be created in the PCD exactly as you created it for the TP.
I hope you are doing like this. It should work
Are yo able to open the downloaded file with WinZip?
cheers
Kiran

Is it possible to do portal content transports through System landscape?

Hello,
In order to transport content from portal A to portal B I am currently using transport packages: export the content from portal A, download it to the local PC and import it to portal B. The process is working OK but I still have a question:
SAP are transferring all the control on their systems to the System landscape, for example Java developments. My question is if it is also possible to make these transports through the system landscape so no local PCs are involved in the process?

Hi Roy,
You are right in the point that development projects can be transported, using the NWDI, centrally managed through the system landscape.
Nevertheless, the PCD transports (EPA) have to be touched manually anyhow. Theoretically, you can set up an SDA and put an EPA into it, see http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/a3/782240da03e569e10000000a155106/frameset.htm for details.
But this only really makes sense if you want to transport your own application together with the portal configuration (iViews representing your application...).
So in the end, PCD transports are designated to be transported as you are used to - manually via the export / import function of the portal.
Hope it helps

Portal Content Transport help!

Hi,
I created some "Remote Delta Links" in my Development Portal that point to IViews on my Dev BI System. When I transport the "Remote Delta Links" from my Dev Portal to my Prd Portal the reference is still to my Dev BI System.
Why would they still be point to my Dev Producer when transported to my Production Portal? Sounds like a transport configuration issue.
Anyone?

Hmmm.. It looks like the Producer on the Development Portal and the Production Portal have to have the same name!
Unlike in non-portal BI transports where the Development ID is changed over to the Production ID...
read step 1 real carefully at this link.

Portal Content Transport

Hi folks!
I deleted several objects beneath a PCD folder.
Now I want to update this folder in another portal system (via transport package - normally...).
How can I have these objects that were deleted in the source system to be deleted in the target system?
Note: I'd like to avoid deleting the folder in the target system and re-create it.
Thanks in advance,
Geraldo.

Geraldo,
I fear there is no such way you can delete in target system similar to that of source system.you have to maually do this.it wont work just by transport
Thanks

Archiving contents using 'Self Export/Import'

Hi,
We are trying to just archive the documents uploaded to the content server to specific place in the same server (not using migrating functionality).
Is it possible to handle this case using “Self Export/Import” functionality?
Or can we use "Content Tracker -> Reduce data" option?
can you explain us how to do this task.
Thank you

Consider Disk space and or where your Archives directory is located.
Sometimes people set up their Vault and Weblayout directories to be on the shared disk and forget to move the Archives directory to a shared location with lots of space. If it is not moved it is in the same file structure as the core CS files and the disk space allotted there may not be big (in some customer cases) and filling that disk may stop your server.
Just a consideration.

Fast EXPORT/IMPORT Question

I have a 200+ GB Oracle 9i DB on UNIX, many tables have primary keys/indexes/constraints. Assuming nobody accessing/using the DB, what is the best procedure to speed up export/import? Both of these will happen on the same machine/OS and RDBMS version. No RMAN please. Thanks.

include the following -
direct=y
recordlength=65535
export file on seperate disks to the datafiles.
import -
recordlength=65535
buffer=64M (or higher)
export file on a seperate disk to the datafiles
Not many people use recordlength, definately a quicker way to export/import.

Multiple servers in parallel export/import question

Hello all,
We plan to use parallel export/import using distribution monitor, and want to use several servers in export and also in import.
The export_monitor.cmd.properties has FTP option ftphost, whic is the hostname of the import server, which looks like it will only use 1 application server (AS) from the source system and 1 in the AS in the target system -
- is this true or can we use more AS in both export and import?
- in the export, how to specify the AS to use?
- in the export, how to specify more than 1 AS?
- in the imprt, how to specify more than 1 AS ?
Thanks,
Terry

You can use the Distribution Monitor for that purpose. Check note 855772 - Distribution Monitor

Portal Content - Business Packages for CRM 7.0 and IC Webclient

Hi all

We are looking at CRM 7.0 and SAP Netweaver Portal 7.0 integration. 
I've noticed that the Business Package (BP) for CRM 7.0 contains very limited business roles for: 
Channel ManagerChannel Manager 
Partner Manager 
Channel Manager (Telecommunications) 
Partner Manager (Telecommunications) 
Customer 
Digital Asset Management 
Incentives and Commissions 
only.

In the past, there the BP for CRM 5.0 contains a lot more roles including customer service representatives and managers. Given that the standard business role export (from CRM 7.0) and import (EP 7.0) does not work for IC Web client business roles, is there a standard way for functionality delivered in IC Webclient like Customer Service to be integrated into EP 7.0?

Otherwise, if we were to configure each BSP page individually for IC Webclient, will there be functions that do not work? eg: alerts, manager realtime view of CSR activities, call tracking, telephony integration etc..

Thanks!

There are two approaches (that I'm aware of):
- install external authentication (such as an LDAP which can be populated from the R/3 backends)
- install an additional Java instance
I would go for both of them because
- it will make things easier if you implement other functionality that is in the portal (non-ESS)
- it will avoid patching one portal and to keep the SPs of both backend systems in sync with the portal

Portal content transport between the systems

Hello,
I am trying to understand the methodology of how the Enterprise portal or any Java systems transport the objects between the landscape like Dev to QA and Prod.
How is the common shared directory / trans - designed and used in Java systems.
Please throw some lights on how this can be implemented..
Thanks,

Hi Addy,
I assume you are referring to transporting PCD objects like iViews, Pages and Roles across different environments?
This link might be helpful for your scenario: [http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/c5/56599164d0c04cb566ba0e2d7ed55c/frameset.htm]
The "Configuring Transport" section explains the different transport parameter in the Portal, including setting import/export folder across environments.
You can also use CTS to transport portal objects, but CTS is more of an add-on to the standard portal tools.
Hope this helps!
Regards,
Aditya

Bundle export/import questions and work arounds

Hello,
I've begun to use bundles to migrate components from our test server to our production server. Bundles are a great feature which i missed the last time i worked with N1SPS a few years back. But i've found a few things that i had to work around.
1. It would be very nice to be able to set version to something like "latest" in the bundle, so i always get the latest version of all components when i do an export.
2. The bundle should be able to export in a certain order, first folder then components, then containers and lastly plans. Today i have to add everything to the bundle in this order or change the XML-file in the jar afterwards. A function to change the order in the bundle would also help.
3. Then the bundle is imported the container reefers to components of version 1.1 for some reason (in this case a directory), but it will import that component to version 1.0? I had to change the version reference in the XML to get this to work.
Any workaround or is it all RFE:s and bugfixes?
Regards
Henrik

Thank you for your fast reply. Is (1) something that could be object for a RFE? I think it's a common work flow to export the latest versions from a development server to a production server.
Regards
Henrik

Aperture to Lightroom Export/Import question

For those who have done the Aperture - Lightroom move (for whatever reason), did you use the built-in Aperture to Lightroom importer that I understand is part of of LR5 or did you use a third-party exporter like Aperture Exporter?
What were your reasons for your choice? My Aperture library is around 68,000 photos, but only around 3,000 show up when I check as "adjusted", so my main concern is trying to maintain some semblance of my folder structure and things like keywords, ratings, etc.
Thanks. Steve

I tried the plug-in (got a trial version of LR5) and after making sure that my entire Aperture Library was referenced, started it - and made sure to tell it to leave the files where they were! To my dismay (1) a lot of photos that I would have expected to be imported came back with errors - even though the ORF Olympus RAW file was a supported camera and more importantly (2) a lot of my photos that were in particular folders, now found themselves in folders based upon the date the photo was either taken or imported into Aperture. Now I read about this - but it is only supposed to happen if you had a managed library and then LR would move the image files into folders based upon dates.
My library had about 68,000 images and after about 6 hours it was up to 30% or so, so I just clicked on DONE to see how it was handling my folder structure.
I am now trying with an application called Aperture Exporter (they have a trial version, but it has limitations on how many photos it will import) and it seems to be handling the export much better. It is keeping my folder structure intact, keeping my metadata (mainly keywords) and any photo that had adjustments in Aperture applied it gives you the option of exporting the original RAW/JPEG file along with a copy of the adjusted one - either as a JPEG or TIFF. Only "issue" would be that you have to have enough hard drive space to duplicate - at least initially - your entire photo library. Don't see an issue to do the export one folder or project at a time (at least not in the demo version).

Very Basic Package and Import question

Thanks in advance ...
- I read/tried all tutorials and documents on the matter
- the programs are from "Java 2 from scratch" book (Steven Haines)
- I suspect the problems result from using new SDK 1.4.2 version versus SDK 1.2.1 (that the book uses)
OK, here we go :
package Stock1.PortfolioTotalsPanel;
- first line in PortfolioTotalsPanels.java file
package Stock1.StockTablePanel;
- first line in StockTablePanel.java file
package Stock1.StockTableTabPanel;
- first line in StockTableTabPanel.java file
--- then:
Import Stock1.PortfolioTotalsPanel ;
Import Stock1.StockTablePanel ;
NOW : I guess I have to compile 'PortfolioTotalsPanels' and 'StockTablePanel' on their own - which I did successfully and kept the '.class' in the same directory (folder) - Stock1
When trying to compile 'StockTableTabPanel.java' file...
StockTableTabPanel.java : cannot resolve symbol
Symbol : class StockTablePanel
Location: class Stock1.StockTableTabPanel.StockTableTabPanel
StockTablePanel stockTablePanel = new StockTablePanel();
...and the same error message for 'StockTablePanel' class.
- I noticed the last line has 'stockTablePanel' instead of 'StockTablePanel' ...not sure if it makes a difference..same with the 'portfolioTotalsPanel'
I'm out of ideas...HELP !!

package Stock1.PortfolioTotalsPanel;
- first line in PortfolioTotalsPanels.java file
package Stock1.StockTablePanel;
- first line in StockTablePanel.java file
package Stock1.StockTableTabPanel;
- first line in StockTableTabPanel.java file
--- then:
Import Stock1.PortfolioTotalsPanel ;
Import Stock1.StockTablePanel ;
NOW : I guess I have to compile
'PortfolioTotalsPanels' and 'StockTablePanel' on their
own - which I did successfully and kept the '.class'
in the same directory (folder) - Stock1Both of your source files are in a directory named Stock1, right? Change directory so that you are in the directory above Stock1:
c:\javastuff\Stock1> cd ..
c:\javastuff> javac Stock1/StockTablePanel.java Stock1/PortfoloiTotalsPanels.java
to run them, run them from this root directory:
c:\javastuff> java Stock1.StockTablePanel
assuming that that class has a main() method.

Problem importing Transport package.

Hello,
I am importing WPC web content (Transport package) (http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/EN/46/77da3bb8036ef0e10000000a1553f6/frameset.htm ). Transport Package doesn't show up in pending imports after Package upload. I repeated the package upload. Still its not showing under "Pending Imports"
Anything else has to be done while importing a transport package (wpc web content).
Thanks
Tony

I never had to enter object ID, when I was exporting. The only required property was the name of the package. I was following this document to export WPC Web Content http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/EN/46/77da3bb8036ef0e10000000a1553f6/frameset.htm
When I exported, the file had a random name d03d399d-c6f6-2b10-12b1-c1a02f8f42c5.zip
Here is the summary of the logfile:
