Regarding Central SLD and Local SLD

Hello,
Can we maintain Central SLD as well as Local SLD?
We have maintain central sld during installation , now i want to maintain local sld also.
How can we do this? what is the benifit and disadvantage for maintaing both?
Regards,
V.Singh

Hi V.Singh
You can have as many SLD as you like - the service is available as part of a WAS JAVA install
Bear in mind the more SLD = the more administration and if you wish to sync them there is also many considerations
It is best you check the SLD planning guide at System Landscape Directory (SLD) to select the landscape that
best suits the intend use
The Central SLD concept is primarily to have an SLD containing all systems in your company i.e complete overview - this might not be specifically used for runtime of these systems - say PI useage etc - it might be used to populate Solution Manager with landscape data or just track all systems and changes in the organization
The central SLD concept is also not essential however an SLD (a local or app specific one) is essential for certain applications like PI, ESS etc

  • Switching from central SLD to local SLD

    Hello,
    i have installed BI Java with central sld.
    Could I switch back from cetral sld to local sld?
    I didn't find any documentation or posts.
    Thanks,
    Sabrina

    Hi,
    Yes you can change the SLD configuration from  local to central  or a vice versa...
    Please check the following SAP Note for your reference
    Note 720717 - Reduce the number of System Landscape Directories (SLD)

  • Diff bet central processing and local operations in decentralized WMS

    Hi Gurus,
    Will any one give clear picture about exact diff between central processing and local operations in the functionality and configuration part, which comes under decentralized WM Integration.
    mail me  any doc or pdf,,to [email protected]
    SPRO, path Le -> Decentralized WMS Integration -> Central processing, local Operations.
    Full points for useful answer
    Regards,
    Venkat

    Hello Venkatesh,
    Let me try to explain in simple words.
    In decentralized scenario you will be using two different system
    1. Central system
    2. Decentral system (WMS system and it can be any application i.e. SAP or other WMS application) in which you will carry out WH transactions.
    Now when you have SAP system as Central system at that time you will make settings in "Central Processing"
    When you are using your SAP system as Decentral system (which is linked to other Central system) at that time you will make settings in "Local Operations"
    Hope this helps.

  • WIP database central time and local time questions

    Hi,
    I have mission to develop some reports which has to point to the WIP database, as far as I know, the WIP data time is stored as the central timestamp, but our usr is accepted only with local time. As we have several sties in US with different timezone, so it is a little confusing to me how to make my report be able to recongize the correct local time simply.
    In SAP ME internal report, I search some SFC information, it always can display the correct local date time, I am interested to know how SAPME works like thi, if possible, can anyone share this method to me? or give me some good idea how I can handle this?
    Thanks a lot and best regards,
    Leon Lu

    Hi,
    In most cases ME grabs timezone associated with site (Site Maintenance). Some reports though might use client's locale from browser to make conversion.
    Thanks,

  • Central SLD/Local SLD

    Hello All,
    Is there limitation with central SLD over Local SLD?.
    To deploy Webdynpro applications (Mobile) please let me know if there are any limitations
    Thanks

    Hello.
    SLD architecture is a long discussion
    There are different views on how to set up SLD's.
    In my oppinion, the limitations of SLD is that it's a central component to a growing number of netweaver component.
    Right now, the portal, webdynpro, xi, nwdi wouldn't work very well without the SLD.
    Considering this there is aspects on how to set up the SLD's. Usually critical systems have a local SLD, with supplyer briges to central SLD's.
    You would have a separate SLD landscape for Production servers, since they usually run on different SLA (service level agreements).
    If you're using NWDI, it's usually a good place to have you're central SLD.
    If you're running a smaller landscape, go for the local SLD only and don't complicate your landscape too much.
    Check this document (about last slide) with different SLD scenarios. https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/204994f3-0e44-2a10-17b3-808fbd8db4aa

  • Como pasar un SLD central de PI a SLD LOCAL...???

    Hola amigos necesito de su ayuda...!!!!
    tengo un SLD central PI entre Desarrollo y Calidad, ya no lo quiero central, lo quiero cambiar a LOCAL
    alguno de ustedes podría orientarme para resolver este asunto......???
    muchas gracias...!!!

    Hi Swapnika,
    "The SLD is a server application that communicates with a client application by using the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP)"
    Server application is nothing but the SAP server, every SAP server has it's own SLD which can be treated as local SLD. it will use HTTP communication to interact with the Client's nothing but the other SAP and non-SAP systems which are configured in your SLD.
    What is Central SLD and what is the difference between Central and Local SLD?

    Do we have to register all SAP and non-SAP systems manually in SLD.
    Yes we should register both SAP and Non-SAP systems manually in SLD.
    there are 4 types of Technical and business systems in available in SLD.
    Web AS ABAP : used for configuring SAP systems like SRM, CRM etc
    Web AS Java :  used for java systems consist of one or more instances.
    Third-party  : used for configuring non-SAP systems like Oracle, SQL server, Web-services etc
    Stand alone Java: used for java systems that are installed on a system from an administrative perspective.

  • Centralized Auth. / Local Switching - Common SSID

    Hi All,
    I'm looking at a design where I would have a few remote sites and a centralized WLC.  My requirement would be to have a common SSID advertised across the remote sites and have that SSID locally switch; so to note tunnel all the traffic across the WAN back to the central site.
    I know the feature I'm looking for is H-REAP with Centralized Authentication and Local switching...but I'm unsure of the second part...which is to have a common SSID across the remote sites.  How do I accomplish the second part?  I heard mention of using AP Groups in another post.  Just looking for more direction.

    You're all correct except on the last part.
    what you want to do is configure your SSID in advanced options to enable HREAP Local switching.
    Then only the APS at remote site you move to HREAP mode one by one.
    From there, all the APs you configured as HREAP will be locally switching traffic and the APs in local mode will still forward traffic through the controller.
    I hope this clarifies ?

  • PI 7.1: Central vs. local SLD

    We are in the process of setting up a PI 7.1. Our landscape has a central SLD (standalone on 7.00 without any other applications on it).
    The PI installation guides recommends to use the local SLD that is synchronized with the central SLD instead of using the central SLD directly.
    I remember from some time ago - where we tried to get a synchronization running - that is was not that "easy" and difficult to troubleshoot.
    I'm not yet convinced to set up a separate SLD (or more than one for DEV, QA and PRD) instead of having one SLD in the landscape.
    Are there any known implications (aside from the inability to use the CTC during setup) when we use an SLD of 7.00 together with a PI 7.1?
    Markus

    Holà Henrique,
    gracias!
    We don't use a "classical" cluster scenario but virtualized using Solaris zones (as failover cluster only, not with two nodes).
    My question was more regarding functionality with scenarios - are the implications or any known no-go's for running a PI 7.1 against an SLD 7.00? If the SLD is "just" the storage for Technical and business systems and JCos for WD-Java, then it should work

  • Migration of local SLD to Central SLD on different host.

    Hello Experts,
    We have migrate the local SLD existing on the SAP PI System to a new Central SLD on a different host on SAP Solution Manager system.
    I followed the OSS Note 720717, which contains the description of the changes that have to be exectued in the SAP XI/PI Environment, during the SLD Migration. This note does not give any details of the description of changes for the other SAP Systems such as SAP ECC, BI etc registered in the SLD.
    Can anyone provide the OSS Notes, SAP Doc URL or the steps on how to migrate the local SLD existing on SAP XI/PI System to the new Central SLD on the SAP Solution Manager system.
    Thanks for help in advance.
    Best Regards,
    Haleem

    Firstly
    I recommend to avoid having 1 SLD for multiple clients - like Solution Manager, BI, ECC
    This is because clients may end up having conflicting requirements for the same SLD
    - for example the small user group for Solution Manager may have a flexible and easy going policy on J2EE downtime
    - but if you take down the Solution Manager J2EE that houses the SLD and PI uses this SLD - then you could have a severe affect on PI useage
    Secondly
    Although you can migrate content - this still does not guarantee the target landscape will work
    - you may still need to manually re-implement target landscape configuration
    let me give you an example
    SLD 1 is being moved to SLD 2
    Portal 1 is pointing to SLD 1
    Even if you migrate the content of SLD 1 - including the ECC and Portal technical system landscape information
    Portal 1 is still pointing to SLD 1 - this then needs to be manually re-pointed to SLD2
    and that might not be all the complete steps either !
    The complete steps of migration from the client side may not be available  (I have found only steps to
    migrate SLD content not migrate client use of the SLD)
    - they may only be available as the documentation for the original configuration steps required to step SLD and the client
    - therefore when migrating SLD you must go through the client setup documentation for SLD and check your
    target landscape is consistent
    Lastly - other considerations include
    Lets say you also export model and CIM content from SLD 1 to SLD 2 - this means SLD 2 has an import line from SLD 1
    - if you decomission SLD1 then you need to switch the import line which is not recommended - this could cause severe problems and may require you to create a new import line to upload content from SAP /swdc (which you need to keep the SLD bug free and latest definitions)
    Just a few thoughts on issues you may encounter

  • Difference Between Central SLD & Local SLD

    Hi All,
    Q1) What is the Difference Between Central SLD & Local SLD.
    Q2) Maintaining Individual SLD For DEV, QTY, PRD Servers is the Best One Or Maitaining the Single SLD is the Best One ????
    Please Ans These Two Q's
    Regards
    Vamsi

    > 2. Maintaining individual SLD for DEV, QTY  & PRD
    > will be better approach. We follow this approach.
    SAP recommends a Single SLD.
    Having a separate SLD for every environment beats the concept of SLD itself. SLD is a place where you can look and understand what components/ system run in your landscape. If you are going to hve one for every Environment, it is against the concept of SLD itself. More maintenance is another issue.
    Single SLD as recommended by SLD has the problem that you do not want to provide access to a component that can be used in production to developing teams and so on .What Barry has pointed is something that is a more practical approach.
    There are no hard and fast rules. A client present across Geographies, havinng multiple vendors and IT teams handling different geographies would prefer to have multiple SLD's one for each Geography and then maybe a master SLD that is going to conain all info of the other Sld's and so on., There is no direct answer to this question other than it purely depends on individual clients.

  • Migrate local SLDs to a centralized SLD

    We are in a big SAP project with one full landscape for each new SAP product (e.g. SRM, ECC, EP, BI, etc.)
    We have a centralized SLD on a SM7.0.
    We have 2 options when installing each system:
    1) use the centralized SLD for each new install
    2) use the local SLD for each new install, then change all local SLDs to the centralized SLD.
    What will be the pros and cons of each option?
    Thanks!

    Hello Linda,
    Eventually ,you want to register your systems to the central SLD.
    You can do it in both ways,but during installation when you select the option of Configure a Local SLD SAPinst says that it will take longer time ,thats it no other issues.
    So best is that you register your systems to Cenral/Remote SLD.The remote SLD should be running and available at that time.
    Have a look at this blog /people/boris.zarske/blog/2008/03/21/sld-general-recommendation-how-to-set-up-the-system-landscape-directory , it will give you more wider view of planning the SLD.
