Printer device group and a label format in SAP AII

Hello @ all,
I try to configure a SAP OER System with SAP AII. Now I should configure the label printing with the transaktion /AIN/ASGN_PRF_FORMAT. I must take a profile name, a printer device group and a label format. The problem is now, that I can't chose a printer device group and also I don't know the label format. Where can I adjust the printer device group and which label format must be in that field?
Can anybody help me?
Thank you.
Peter

Hi Peter,
SAP AII sends the label format filename as part of the Command message xml to the printer during tag commissioning.
I assume you have configured the label format filename for SAP_PRINT_PROFILE using transaction /AIN/ASGN_PRF_FORMAT - Assign Format to Printer and Profile
Now you have to assign that profile to an ID type or GTIN, etc. using the menus under Profiles for Tag Commissioning and Label Printing.
Once this configuration is done, the xml command message containing the element WriteTagData is sent to the printer RFC destination configured against the Device controller as an HTTP message.
This command message will contain the label format and field names - value pairs as per the SAP_PRINT_PROFILE.

Device group and applications affinity

Hello all.
I have some device groups created with CFS configured on them.
I need to ensure that a clusterized application runs on the server that is primary for the device group. I need to set an affinity between the affinity and the device group/file system.
The problem is that the SUNW.HAStoragePlus does not indicates the real primary for the device group, for example:
# cldg status ufs_homedg
Cluster Device Groups ===
--- Device Group Status ---
Device Group Name Primary Secondary Status
ufs_homedg billbd2 billbd1 Online
# clrg status ufsg-home-rg
Cluster Resource Groups ===
Group Name Node Name Suspended Status
ufsg-home-rg billbd1 No Online
billbd2 No Offline
In this output, the resource group is online in billbd1 and the device group primary is billbd2.
If I failover the resource group, the device group is switched also, but it seems that at startup, the resource group does not check who is the primary to start on that node.
This means that the status of the resource group does not helps to identify who is the primary for a device group and I cannot use it for affinity configuration.
¿How can I ensure that an cluster application starts on the node who is primary for the device group on which the file system is created?
I was thinking on a SUNW.gds for this purpose, but I wonder if there is another way.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Tim, thanks for your time.
Yes, I'm using AffinityOn=TRUE. After some testings, I can see that the device group is switched at startup, but I don't know under which circunstances it does not.
Also, I can force discrepancy with the device group and the resource group if a perform a cldg switch.
So, if I run clrg switch, the device group is switched also. If I run cldg switch, the device group is switched but the HAStoragePlus resource does not.
This means that HAStoragePlus cannot ensure that the node is the primary for a device group and cannot be used for affinity on applications.

Hi Rama,
We are working to print Bar codes using Smart forms.
Barcode is printing in label (4*6 Inchs) using printer (Zebra Z4 M PLUS (300 DPI)) (TLP-3842) which supports ZPL Language and Device type is ZLZEB3 (300 DPI).
We are printing bar codes successfully.
But After testing bar code using bar code tester (BC TESTER 4.4) software tool.
The results are failed.
We are expecting results: Like bellow.
Value formatted type is: EAN
Value is [C142007470
Total Description:   420. Ship To-Deliver to Postal Code a Single Postal Authority 07470
Current Situation:
Here we are Created Bar code (Ship to Post) in SE73 with
Bar code type is: Code 128
Width is: 08
Height: 300
Mode is: A    (Even I tried with N and U)
UCC check: Empty.
I added this to character format in my Smart forms.
Text in smart form is: ,,,,<C2>&W_POSTAL_CODE&</>    for P1 Paragraph.
Using this functionality we are able to print a Bar code in Label.
But while testing using BC Tester
Values are showing:
Value formatted type is: EAN
Value is 42007470
Total Description Values: Empty
The Type is EAN is when we select the Manually EAN Radio button (but this not capturing automatically this is problem we are facing).
Even I tried with some changes like bellow:
But Forcefully writing some code in Program lines Smartform:
               concatenate '420' fs_zediu017-pstlz into w_postal_code
After this forcefully adding this Value [C1 in Before W_postal_code Element text :
Text in smart form is:        ,,,,<C2>[C1&W_POSTAL_CODE&</>    for P1 Paragraph.
After this we are tested using BC tester
Every thing is displaying correct Vales which mention above when we manually select the Value formatted type radio button EAN but this Wrong.
Client need when testing bar code using BC TESTER 4.4 it should be display to take EAN radio button and showing all the Values.
Please let me know if you get any idea on this ?
Thanks,
Bathini.

How to print the Terms and Condition page ine the sap-script

Hi experts,
                         i got the requirement that how to print the Terms and condition page in the script,i have the three pages, having the same main window, in the last of the main window(all three pages) i have called the hard coded text(i.e so10 text), but when i am displaying the output data get printed in the first page but i am getting the second page heading on the top of the terms and condiions page. In all the three pages i have the same main window, if i make change in any window i will affect all the other main windows. so please suggest me how i need to go.HOW TO GET GRID OF THE TEXT ON THE TOP OF THE SECOND PAGE OF THE TERMS AND CONDITONS.
like this i have called in the MAIN WINDOW
/E : LAST ( IN ALL THREE PAGES)
       INCLUDE ZSD_INVOICE_TERMS TEXT OBJECT TEXT LANGUAGE EN.
IN THE TCODE SO10
NEW PAGE TERMS.
1) TERM MS AND CONDITONS TEXT.................................................
FIRST->NEXT, NEXT->NEXT,,   TERMS--->TERMS.

Hi,
1. Create a new page by Name : LAST
2. Identify the text element which will be the last element in the form in the debug mode.
Mostly Ex: SUM, TOTAL, LAST etc.,
3. the page linking should be
First --> Next
Next --> Next
4. In the Text element identified in the step 3.
Write the following code
/: NEW PAGE LAST
/: INCLUDE the standard text created for the terms and conditions in SO10
Check the syntax for the command but the logic will be the same.
It should resolve your problem.

Printing boarding passes and Fedex labels

When I use Safari for Windows to print my airline boarding passes or Fedex labels at work it reduces the size by about 25%. Is there a setting I'm not familiar with that is causing this? I don't have the same problem with Firefox or IE.

I have the same issue with UPS labels. To get around it, I do a print preview, click the settings icon (looks like a gear) and then set the margins to 0.25 (quarter-inch) all the way around. YMMV

SSL Accelerated Service and device groups

I have a need to set up SSL accelerated services on a data center WAE and one edge WAE. In reading through the Cisco Wide Area Application Services SSL Application Optimiser Deployment Guide (2010), it states that best practice is to create an SSL device group and configure the SSL service and generate the keys through that group.
Simple question: Should only the data center WAE be placed in that group, or should also the edge WAE be in the group? The devices are running 4.3.3.

Only the data center wae's need to be placed in the SSL device group.

MARS Device Groups

I am working with MARS 4.3.4 and have a question on what you can do with Device Groups. I don't see where they can be referenced in queries or rules. Am I missing something?

No, you're not. They're somewhat pointless really. You can create them, but they're only used to filter what is displayed, you still have to manually select each individual device in a query.
In other words, you can't create a report using a device group and expect future updates to the device group to show up in the report.
FWIW, there are lots of other "groups" like this too. Protego/Cisco seems to have forgotten the real value of making groupings like this.

WAAS Central Manager Policy Definitions across several device groups

Hi there,
I am trying to find a way to apply a custom application policy(s) to multiple device groups. ( not the AllDevicesGroup).
I have not found a way to export or import the policy.
Any help would be appreciated.
Todd

I have my "Core" WAE's in a separate device group to prevent them from recieving a policy or setting intended for Edge WAEs. For example, If someone sets the assignment method to hash, I certianly dont want that pushed to my Core, ( using Mask assignment)
However, a custom application definition WILL need to be applied to both Core and Edge WAE's. Therefore I need a way to create the policy for all devices group and copy out and apply selected custom policies to the Core device group as well.
Problem: I have QUALYS Vulnerability Scanners that wreak havoc on WAE's by opening 1000's of sessions and not propoerly closing them, causing TFO Overload conditions, throughout the network.
Solution: create a custom policy to set Scanner IP action to pass-through. there are 30+ scanners so the match condition is lenthy and woudl be painful to build manually for each device group.
new Problem: need to apply this to multiple device groups.

NCM Device Group owner

We are currently running NCM 1.3 (Build 4045-112607). I am wondering if it is possible to define a default owner for Sites, Parent Device Groups, and Device Groups? Our dilemma is we have several engineers with the ability to create these containers. Once an engineer leaves you cannot delete their account as long as they are owners of a Site, Parent Device Group, or Device Group. I know if you have admin privileges you can select the owner of the Device Group at creation. Is there a way or is it possible to select/change the owner of a Site or Parent Device Group?

How to deploy settings in Profile Manager through Device Groups

When I go to the Profile Manager web page and create a device group and configure the payload settings it doesn't seem to send the profile settings to the Mac devices that are in the group. How do I go about getting this to work so when I get a new device that is enrolled all I have to do is throw it in the group so it will automatically push out the correct payload settings that I configured?

What you're asking should work. You should be able to create a Device Group and adjust the setting for that group. Then when you add a device to that group, the settings will be pushed to the device automatically. So, it leaves me with a few questions for you:
Why don't you think it sends the payload? When you look under "Activity" do you see tasks in the "Active" area or in the "Completed" area... or something else?
What are you trying to change? Setting up email accounts on iPhones will appear right away, but there are other changes (especially on computers) that don't take affect until it restarts (or the user at least logs out and back in).
Are you sure you have devices in your device group? Sorry, probably a really silly question, but under your device group, do you see the devices under the "Members" section?
Are your devices "trusting" your server? Did you add the trust profile to the device when you enrolled it?
Sorry I can't be more help... but I can tell you that you can do what you are asking. We have it set up in our office, and it works really well. We just add the new device to the device group and it does the rest.

Profile Manager Devices/Groups Missing?

I am trying to set up Profile Manager but all I see listed under the library heading on the left hand side of the page is Apps, Books, Users and Groups. Earlier today I had Devices, Device Groups and some other stuff like the create enrollment button. Any idea how I can get these back or why they went missing? I have attached a screen shot showing what I am talking about.

It looks like "Device Management" somehow got reset. You need to enable it from the Profile Manager pane in Server.app.

What is meant by article grouping and site grouping and how to define

what is meant by article grouping and site grouping and how to define in SAP.

Hi Charan,
Article Grouping in its broader sense means grouping of Articles for ease of maintenance and business functions, either on the basis of Hierarchy or on the basis of Merchandise Category.Article Grouping is also primarily useful in promotions,wherein you can define a set of articles(which may not necessary fall under the same MC or Hierarchy) and club them together and assign them in a promotion.Txn codes used are : VBG1/2/3 - Create/Change/Display Article Group

Site Grouping is used for ease of maintenance by grouping the sites.It is also used to maintain the characteristics as well.This can also be used in Allocation Tables,promotion and Listing etc
Some of the Txn codes -
WB50 - Site Group,Create Alloc,.table
Wb56 - Site Group, Alloc.table,Maintain Sites in Class
WB60 - Site Group,Create Promotions
WB64 - Site Group,Maintain SItes to Class
Wb80 - Create Site Group Other

Relations between SAP AII, ONS, PML and Savant???

The EPCGlobal provides a standard EPC-Network containing the EPC-Code and infrastruture-components like the RFID-Tag and -Reader, the ONS-Server, the PML-Server and a RFID-Middleware called Savant.
On the one hand I found a couple of articles where the SAP Auto-Id Infrastructure (SAP AII) is said to be a "RFID-Middleware". On the other hand I found a lot of presentation sheets with illustrations of the SAP AII architecture where the SAP AII is connected to Savant by the device controller and to the ONS/PML Servers by SAP XI.
Can anybody inform me about the relationship between the SAP AII, the ONS/PML Servers and Savant? Is the SAP AII a substitute for Savant? Which component of the SAP Auto-ID Infrastructure asks the ONS-Server for the URL to a PML Server where further information about an object which is identified by the EPC code are located? Are product information stored on a PML-Server anyway? Or are information only stored in the ERP-Backendsystem?
Thank you for your reply.

hi.Dirk
1)SAP AII is a "RFID-Middleware", but mostly it is a RFID Middleware for business process. It focus on business more than RFID readers. So it is not a RFID Reader manager(Device connector, or something like that)
2)Savant is a specification or a product release by EPC global. You can download the savant specification on EPC global .
http://www.epcglobalinc.org/about/AutoID_Archive/documents/6_auto_id_savant-1_0.pdf
Savant is also a product, many company IBM, SUN make their RFID Middleware follow the EPC savant specification. And also EPC has a RFID-Middleware call savant.
Savant is design to manager RFID readers, filter RFID tag information, and log events.
3)The relation between AII and savant is they are on the diferrent layer of RFID Middleware, they should be work together.
4)ONS is another EPC RFID issue, it is design to record RFID tag data. On EPC's idea, all the data about RFID tag should be record on ONS server. I do not know if it will come true in the future.
5) On SAP solution, Most of the data is still stored in SAP backend-system(R3,SCM,BW......), and information about RFID, e.g. RFID tag, RFID device, tag event is stored in SAP AII. And you can use BW in AII, if mass data is generated.
6) PML is just a RFID XML.
