Reconcile XI dev and prod

Hi,
In many projects there is a practice of copying the production environment to the development for ABAP side of solutions. Is there similar practice for the Java side for XI.
Thanks and Regards
Venkat

Is there similar practice for the Java side for XI.
Havent seen similar practice on Java anywhere
production environment to the development - No
development environment to the production - Of course yes

Performance problems between dev and prod

I run the same query with identical data and indexes, but one system takes a 0.01 seconds to run while the production system takes 1.0 seconds to run. TKprof for dev is:
Rows Row Source Operation
1 TABLE ACCESS BY INDEX ROWID VAP_BANDVALUE

41 NESTED LOOPS

26000 INDEX MODE: ANALYZED (RANGE SCAN) OF 'IDX_BV1' (INDEX).The row count varies greatly. But it shouldn't as the data is the same.
Any ideas?

From DEV you show the Row Source Operations for the query. The column named "Rows" signifies the actual number of rows processed with each step.
From PROD you show the Execution Plan for the query; that is, tkprof was executed with the EXPLAIN option which generates the execution plan as of the time when tkprof was run. The "Rows" column in the Explain Plan output comes from the PLAN_TABLE.CARDINALITY, which represents an estimate by the CBO for the number of rows [expected to be] processed with each step.
So, if by <quote>The row count varies greatly</quote> you meant these "Rows" columns outputs then you're are comparing actuals from a database with estimates from another. Get the Row Source Operations from both.
"Identical data and indexes":
1. data may be the same, but it is not necessarily stored physically the same way.
2. Indexes being the same means their definitions are the same; again, physically they are not necessarily identical
In other words, data in PROD (the way it is stored on disk) may have evolved as a result of discrete deletes/updates/inserts ... in DEV it could be, for example, stored more compact if you took a copy of PROD and moved into DEV. So, the number of blocks for your segments will likely be different between PROD and DEV, the clustering factor for your indexes are likely different, etc ... things which could [and do] influence the CBO. The statistics may be different.
I guess what I'm saying is ... it is quite hard, if not outright impossible, to get two identical databases/instances/load ... hence, don't expect the executions to be 100% identical, even if you have "identical data and indexes". By all means compare between DEV and PROD (make sure you compare the same thing though) and use the observed differences as an indicator for further investigation ... don't chase the goal of 100% identical behavior.
Now, by all means look at that query taking 1 second in PROD ... I have only addressed <quote>The row count varies greatly. But it shouldn't as the data is the same.</quote>

免 Chaines Char not accepted in QA system, working fine in Dev and PROD

Hi Experts,
I am stuck withchines char e.g. 免
BW QA is not accepting it, I can see the PSA data 免 converted to #, where as same records show proper 免 in BW DEV and PROD.
I checked the data in source system (RSA3) properly showing 免.
I rechecked the SM59 RFC setting in QA and compare with DEV.
All system are unicode supported.
Please help to resolve.
Thank-You.
Regards,
VB

I crated a new flat file text datasource and tried to load data (chines char) and that to work in QA.
Don't understand what's issue with 0CUST_SALES_ATTR extractor. ?
Any help/experience is welcome.

Consistency between dev and prod systems!!!!

Hi All,
I wuld like to check the consistency between Dev and Prod systems for all the Data model and other objects existing. I would like to do this sanity check to see whether the two systems are in sync. Are there any tools or transaction codes within SAP framework which can guide me in this direction.
Kind Regards,
Surya Tamada.

Hi Surya ,
First build whole data flow :
1 .Create Infoarea ,Infoobjects & Masterdata ,Infoproviders ,Infoobject Catelog under Infoarea,MetaData - Characteristics MeteData - Key Figures
2 DSOs ,Infocubes ,Infosets, Multiproviders ,Views in the development system ,Datasources for BW system,Flat File Datasources,Transformations
then get data from the se11 tables as per your requirement :
like RSDVCHA ,RSDBCHATR,RSDCUBEIOBJ,RSDICMULTIIOBJ etc and built view on it as per your requirement .
then built flat file data sources and transformation .
get all data downloaded to flat file in ur PC .In the same way from other system.
make flow from PC File Datasource -> DSO -> Infocube and build queries for different objects .load the downloaded files to them and then run query .
ex : query to compare cube will take cube name and systems name as input and compare objects .

Multiple connections to dev and prod

Hi All,
I trying to connect multiple environments (Dev and Prod) from shared connections in Smartview.
When I right click on the existing planning I couldn't see anything (there were suggestions from other posts that by right clicking you will get an option to add new server).
Also I have differetn URL's for dev and Prod.

I think from 11.1.2.2 onwards the ability to add servers in Shared Connection is removed and an enhancement is filed to have that ability.
You can use private connection to connect to different instances
http://DEV:19000/aps/APS for Essbase
http://DEV:19000/HyperionPlanning/SmartView HyperionPlanning
If you are on 11.1.2.3 you can create an XML file and use that as your Shared Connection

SYSTEM LANDSCAPE - DEV and PROD - refresh

Hi All,
We have a situation like this.
1. Our BW Q&A is a copy of PROD
2. Our BW DEV is not either a copy of Q&A or PROD.
3. We have issue with a particular process chain in PROD and we need to correct (and follow the lanscape..that is want to do the correction in DEV and the transport to QA and then to PROD)
4. Since this particular process chain is not existing in the DEV environment, our Basis team is advising us to check the difference in DEV and PROD for as this process chain concern and then want to refresh it to DEV system so that we can carry out the change/modification.
We don't know really what exactly we need to find the differences between DEV and PROD for this PC and then to inform to Basis team...
Is it correct that since the particular process chain associated with various queries,data targets,update/transfer structures...etc will be over writen / copied / refreshed in DEV system from PROD?
Please advise..Please help..

Hi George, SAT, BWer,
Thanks for your messages.
George : Answers to your question:
1. Our Basis team want to copy all the configuration (related to the particular process chain only)and not Data's.
2. How to pack the process chain in a portable file and extract this file. then import it into DEV..and what is the way not to get error when doing so (knowing that fact that obejects will be different..) I don't know..whether to copy the objects are or not..
3.I agree with you.. Even we are ready to work with DEV to PROD..
SAT: Answers to your questions:
1. I do see some Process chains in the DEV and not related to this particular PC. Many development PC are there..and I don't know where the originally developed PC's ???!!
2. I am new to this Client..sorry..how this has been deleted...
BWer :Answers to your questions:
1. Yes..PC is Latest in the PROD.
2. We don't want to create the process chain all the way from scratch in the DEV. Yes..This is one of the process chain used in the metachain...Totally there are five chains in the PROD related to this..We need to modify only the second process chain..which we are trying to copy in the DEV and then do the changes...
Hope , you are clear about our requirement.
Please advise me what exactly we need to look into the DEV and PROD system so that required PC is copied alomg with (????) to DEV system..Please help.
Thank you very much in Advance..

Query Execution time is different in DEV and PROD

Hi,
Query is as follows:

Welcome to the forum.
Please edit your post and use the {noformat}{noformat} tag, so your examples will stay formatted and indented.
Put the tag before and after all text you want to stay formatted.
{noformat}..{noformat} - Displays everything between the tags as programming code.
The query on PROD is doing lots more of reads/processing much more rows then on DEV.
For example, take table CONTACT_TRANS:
- less than 100,000 rows on DEV
vs
more than 2,300,000 on PROD.
but data is on shink.What does that mean?

Dev and Prod Environment Sync.

Hello Experts,
I would like to ask for your kind help in the following matter: How to resynch the dev and production environments.
For some (inextricable) reason, the production and development servers are out of sync. Mainly the SLD content is in different versions. The production one is older. Oh and there is no QA environment.
Besides that the business systems were created manually in each server and have inconsistencies. No SLD information was transported between them, only the repository and some directory information. Other directory information was created in the production environment directly. And I am affraid some development took place in production server directly too.
So I have been asked to produce a plan to get all this mess into shape. So far at a macro level I have these tasks planned:
10.- Backup prod and dev servers.
20.- Load latest CIM model and CR content on both servers (and see what happens).
30.- Connect the SAP systems as SLD data sources to prod SLD.
40.- Redo configuration in prod to point to automatically created business systems (and retest).
50.- Cleanup of manually created business systems the prod environment.
60.- Config the prod SLD as data source for dev SLD.
70.- Redo configuration in dev server to make it match prod SLD.
80.- Cleanup of manually created business systems the dev environment.
90.- Create in the dev server the repository objects that were directly created in prod.
100.- Test everything for consistency.
Please help me improve the task list/order.
-Sam.

Hi Sam
You are planning a lot of activity on a production environment. Two coments:
1. When you have your dev SLD configured as you require, with CIM, PI Content & Business Systems updated etc .. perhaps you should do a level of regression testing on this environment before embarking on changing the Live env.
2. Once you are happy that the Dev env It is possible to Export and import manually the SLD content from the Dev to the Live to align both systems, refer to link:
https://websmp104.sap-ag.de/~sapidb/011000358700000315022005E.PDF
This is available through the Export Link in Administration page.

Risk Analysis result different in DEV and PROD

Hi Gurus,
I have modified few functions in development and transported the changes but after transport there is a new SOD produced at the user level and with same access in Development there is no violation when I checked the function permission there is two duplicate entries in production ruleset compared to Development. Do I need to remove the duplicate entries in production and then run risk analysis is this going to fix SOD ?
My assumption is GRC 10 doesn't have ability to transport changes for deletion in functions.
Regards,
Salman

Dear Salman,
looks that the rules have been appended so it shows twice.
I suggest to download the correct rules from DEV and upload in PROD again. You can use program GRAC_UPLOAD_RULES to upload in PROD. Please make sure you set the option to overwrite, and not append.
With GRAC_RULE_DELETE you can also delete the rules before you upload (not necessary, but possible).
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Alessandro

Comparing data in dev and prod cubes

We have a development environment and a production environment.
I use the deployment wizard to move from dev to prod, but I haven't done this for several months.
I have a finance cube which in theory I haven't changed except for some changes to some shared dimensions.
I would like to compare the data and/or structure of the two finance cubes (dev vs prod) and make sure the only changes are the differences in shared dimensions.
Can anybody tell me how to do, that?
Thanks in advance.

Red Gate's free SSAS Compare tool is probably the easiest way to compare two SSAS Multidimensional databases:
http://www.red-gate.com/labs/free-tools/ssas-compare
It will show up a few spurious differences (minor property values that aren't important) and it's not supported, but it works pretty well.
If you're using Tabular rather than Multidimensional, you can use BISM Normalizer:

Source System Mapping between BW Dev and Prod system

Hi,
I have a DB Connect Source System in BW Dev system called DBSRCDEV which points to one of our Oracle Dev DB.
In Production, the DB Connect Source System is called DBSRCPROD and it points to the corresponding Oracle Prod DB.
In Development, I created a data source on this Source System (DBSRCDEV) and I tried to transport it to Production. But it failed with error saying that DBSRCDEV does not exist.
Where and how can I maintain or configure the mapping between DBSRCDEV and DBSRCPROD Source System so that I can transport my data source to Production?
Please help.
Thanks,
CH

Hi,
usually you need to maintain the setting for the change of the logical system name (source system) in each target system of a transport. So in your prod system goto rsa1->tools->change logical system names...
After maintaining that table, try to import your request again.

Siggi

Field Status review between Dev and Prod.

Hello All,
During solving one of the ticket, I found that there are some difference in selection of some of fields as suppress,optional and compulsory for account groups with screen layout (customers) - (T. Code - OBD2) between Development and Production server. Now I would like to test for all account groups between Prod and Development.It is taking lot of time to see screen by screen.
Can any body throw some light on this regarding any alternative way or can we download table information ?
Thanks in advnace for your cooperation.
Regards,
santosh

Try this:
transaction: SE16
Table: T077D
Execute
Do same in both systems and compare.
Once you identified differences go back into the transaction as mentioned - OBD2- for detail analysis.

# Need help setting up DW CS3 local, dev and prod sites

Hi all,
I'm currently building a site in DW CS3 and wanted to
structure things so I could develop, test, then publish in a more
structured manner. What I'd like to have is the follow setup (sorry
for the botched diagram):
Computer 1 Computer 2
(local dev1) (local dev2)
| |
| |
|
|
Test Environment
(common)
|
|
Prod Environment
(on my web host server)
I assume that there's a way to do this in DW, but I can't
seem to find a good tutorial on it. Now I'm working on all pages on
my iMac, previewing in the browser to check, and then pushing them
to the web host to update my site. This is happening in bits and
pieces, and I'd much rather develop everything locally and then
push the site in one (or just fewer) moves.
Also, I'd like for another user to be able to develop and
hopefully publish to the test environment before pushing to prod.
Is there a way to organize and control things so our files stay
somewhat in sync?
Thanks in advance,
Mike

I recommend downloading and installing XAMPP

Configuring Checkpoint() in DEV and Prod

Hi Gurus,
BPEL process has many java EmbedS with checkpoint() ( no java code) and want to configure to avoid the checkpoints being executed in the process in Production and keep them running in DEV. Is there any way to configure it ?
Thanks,
Carl

Well..it depends how you're going to check if you either in development or in production.
Im not sure if this is the way to go, but you could use : ora:getProcessURL() and do a switch on the value of part of this string. Or assign this value to a bpel-variable, and check this variable in the embedded java, so you will only have 1 activity instead of the switch + embedded java.
Or in bpel.xml you could add a preference with the value of for example "$environment" and this value could be "replace" by the build with the value of the environment on which you're going to deploy.

CPO licensing - Can dev and prod share the same license ?

We have used the trial version for about 3month now for my dev VM, we have ordered server and license from cisco, but infortunately the server are not ready yet. Can I use the production license we bought on my dev VM and later on my production VM ?
Thanks,
Cendrine.

PO customer licenses are node locked to a specific server. You will need a selarate license code for each system you stand up. This includes trial extensions for customers.
When you install a fresh system, you get a trial license with the install which is good for 30 days after the initial install. Any licenses after that are node locked.
