Requirement for Fire Fighter (ABAP)

Hi, i wonder anyone here can advice the sizing for Fire Fighter in the ABAP end? There is a sizing for the Web frontend, but i cant seem to find 1 for the ABAP end. Thanks for the help!
Cheers!!

Peter,
I found the hardware requirements to install Firefighter,
Machine = Server Based
Dual Processors = 2.4-3.2 GHz or faster
RAM = 2-4 GB
Hard Disk = 40 GB minimum (120 GB recommended)
I assume the server that you are installing this on has at least this enough space/memory available. Let me know if this helps if not I can see if I can find additional information

WebAS access via Portal: Web Dispatcher required for load balancing ABAP

Hi Folks -
We have EP 6.0 SP18 (Java only, WebAS 6.40, Unix/Solaris). The portal has a CI/SCS and one DI so we have a Web Dispatcher to load balance the portal servers. This works fine (and provides port 80 access).
This portal will provide access to HTTP services from an ABAP WebAS (6.20 with 6.40 kernel, Unix/Solaris). A landscape configuration entry has been added to the portal for this ABAP system. The ABAP system has a CI and multiple app servers, all capable of handling HTTP requests. This will also require port 80 access.
1. Will we need an additional Web Dispatcher to load balance HTTP requests to the 'backend' ABAP WebAS system, or will the portal be smart enough to handle the load balancing itself (perhaps based on the information in the landscape configuration)?
2. If the portal itself handles the HTTP load balancing can you point me to documentation (so I can make sure I have proper configuration)?
3. Are there any changes to this with NW2004s Portal (we plan to upgrade soon)?
Thanks in advance! Jeff

Jeff,
Regarding:
Q1. If you create a system object from the "SAP system with load balancing" template in portal and configure the object to point to your CI (msg server), the LB should be handled.
Q2. Portal load balancing is handled by the message server. If you point a test URL to the port of your message server, you will notice that you are issued a redirect the URL of your dialog instance. The web dispatcher is just a proxy (with some intelligence). When a request is made to the WD, it makes a connection to the MSG server, the list of active instances is queried, a redirect is made to that instanct. If you use WD, that connection can be proxied behind a standard URL. If you connect directly to the MSG Server instead, you will notice your URL change, just as it does on the service marketplace.
WDs are good for providing services, masked (proxied) behind virtual names. If you do not want the customer to see a physical URL of the server, use the WD. There are lots of other solutions that can do this too though such as Apache, ISA, Juniper devices, Cisco LDs. WDs have a very low performance threshold though, especially if you use SSL. WD is a performance bottleneck and should be benchmarked to see if it is right for your application.
Q3. No changes this architecture in 04s.

Immediate Response required for Fire-and-forget OSB pattern.

Hi,
I have a BPEL process (fire-and-forget pattern) which runs for few minutes, but want to send an immediate response back to the caller. The important condition is to have a Proxy implemented as a WSDL-based service type.
For this, I am calling BS (of BPEL process) in request pipeline and sending a changed $body in response pipeline; but the OSB response document us null, though in response pipeline, I do see $body getting replaced.
Any pointers will be really helpful.
Thnx,
Nikhil

like AbhishekJ said
if you defined your operation in the wsdl for the proxy service oneway and in the testconsole you do see the body is getting replaced after the routing is executed it's mostly like because of the oneway operation on your proxyservice itself, make it synchronous and do a test again?
or put a replace with some static xml in the response pipeline, remove the route and see if if still returns null
then you're pretty sure it's the oneway operation in the proxy wsdl itself

Reducing time required for ABAP-only copyback (system copy) process

Our company is investigating how to reduce the amount of time it takes to perform a copyback (system copy) from a production ABAP system to a QA system. We use a similar process for all ABAP-only systems in our landscape, ranging from 3.1h systems to ECC6.0 ABAP-only systems on both DB2 and Oracle database platforms, and the process takes approximately two weeks of effort from end-to-end (this includes time required to resolve any issues encountered).
Here is an overview of the process we use:
u2022     Create and release backup transports of key system tables and IDu2019s (via client copy) in the QA system to be overwritten (including RFC-related tables, partner profile and IDOC setup-related tables, scheduled background jobs, archiving configuration, etc.).
u2022     Reconfigure the landscape transport route to remove QA system from transport landscape.
u2022                    Create a virtual import queue attached to the development system to capture all transports released from development during the QA downtime.
u2022     Take a backup of the target production database.
u2022     Overwrite the QA destination database with the production copy.
u2022     Localize the database (performed by DBAu2019s).
u2022     Overview of Basis tasks (for smaller systems, this process can be completed in one or two days, but for larger systems, this process takes closer to 5 days because of the BDLS runtime and the time it takes to import larger transport requests and the user ID client copy transports):
o     Import the SAP license.
o     Execute SICK to check the system.
o     Execute BDLS to localize the system.
o     Clear out performance statistics and scheduled background jobs.
o     Import the backup transports.
o     Import the QA client copy of user IDu2019s.
o     Import/reschedule background jobs.
o     Perform any system-specific localization (example: for a CRM system with TREX, delete the old indexes).
u2022     Restore the previous transport route to include the QA system back into the landscape.
u2022     Import all transports released from the development system during the QA system downtime.
Our companyu2019s procedure is similar to the procedure demonstrated in this 2010 TechEd session:
http://www.sapteched.com/10/usa/edu_sessions/session.htm?id=825
Does anyone have experience with a more efficient process that minimizes the downtime of the QA system?
Also, has anyone had a positive experience with the system copy automation tools offered by various companies (e.g., UC4, Tidal)?
Thank you,
Matt

Hi,
> One system that immediately comes to mind has a database size of 2TB. While we have reduced the copyback time for this system by running multiple BDLS sessions in parallel, that process still takes a long time to complete. Also, for the same system, importing the client copy transports of user ID's takes about 8 hours (one full workday) to complete.
>
For BDLS run, I agree with Olivier.
> The 2 weeks time also factors in time to resolve any issues that are encountered, such as issues with the database restore/localization process or issues resulting from human error. An example of human error could be forgetting to request temporary ID's to be created in the production system for use in the QA system after it has been initially restored (our standard production Basis role does not contain all authorizations required for the QA localization effort).
>
For the issues that you encounter because of system copy, you can minimize this time period as you would be doing it on periodic basis (making some task list) and you can make a note of issues that you faced in previous run. So, normally i don't count it as system copy time
Thanks

ABAP & Java Concepts required for SAP-NW XI/PI

Hi Experts,
As a fresher, I want to start a career in SAP ans SAP Netweaver- XI/PI. After going through some blogs, forum, sap stuff etc, I came to know the prerequisites for XI is both ABAP and Java...
But I am not sure which concepts in ABAP and Java are required for an SAP XI consultant, as I see SAP itself is an Ocean. So Apart from XI concepts , what are all the concepts needed in ABAP and Java.
As for XI concepts are concerned there is a lot of stuff in SDN itself. Only thing is, one shd have patience to search and proper guidance while learning.

Guru

Fire Fighter Roles

Hi Gurus,
I am in the process of designing Fire Fighter ROles for the Production process...
Can any one please help me with the number of roles and Transactions that we use for the design process...
How many Fire Fighter roles that we need and What are the Transactions.....?
Thanks in advance
Guru

Hi Guru,
The roles that need to be created for Firefighter ids are based on requirement from the Business process owners of the respective business modules ( example, SD, MM, PP, FICO ).
Firefighter tool is designed to help you handle exceptional access requests appropriately.
This tool is used to deal with emergency access requests. For example, when a Production support person needs to investigate an Urgent issue in Production system but does not have enough access. Then you need to assign the Firefighter id and the appropriate Firefighter role(s) to complete the emergency transactions.
Virsa Firefighter for SAP enables super-users to perform emergency activities outside the parameters of their normal role, but to do so within a controlled, fully auditable environment. The application assigns a temporary ID that grants the super-user broad yet regulated access, and tracks and logs every activity the super-user performs using that temporary ID.
So you need to consult your BPOs, Internal Audit team, Controllers and come up with the emergency transactions, authorizaton objects, programs, reports, tables and design the roles with appropriate naming conventions.Assign the Firefighter roles to the Firefight IDs in emergency in Production system.

Fire Fighter in Virsa

Can someone please describe me how fire fighter works
Thanks

The only actions that are recorded are those of the firefighter ID. The firefighter ID does not record any other actions for any other users.
A good example of what a fire fighter ID could be used for is Basis access. There are additonal tasks that a Basis person is allowed to perform in a non-Production system versus a Production system (as I am sure you are aware). There are times though that he/she may need elevated access to perform a critical task. At that point the firefighter ID is accessed and their actions recorded.
As far as the type of access that you would assign, keeping with the same Basis person example, take a look at what you have defined for your Basis person(s) in your Production environment. Compare that access to what he/she has in QA (and/or Dev). The delta identified is the elevated access that may be required as baseline authorization for the firefighter ID. Of course this is only an example and you would have to tailor it to suite your requirements.

If Excise invoice required for finished goods.

Hi All
I have doubt, whether excise invoice is required for finished goods or not. As I am trying to create MIGO doc for PO of finished material, and it is saying, no excise invoice possible for finished material RG1.
Can you advise please.
Regards
Mukta

HI
Thanks for this. When we are executing Utilization transaction J2IU, it is giving dump after prompting popup with 'Data will be lost PLA NCCD B35', 'No record selected , excise invoice cancelled'.
Run time error is saying -
Short text
    Structure-type conflict when calling a FORM
What happened?
    Error in the ABAP Application Program
    The current ABAP program "J_1IRUTZ" had to be terminated because it has
    come across a statement that unfortunately cannot be executed.
An exception occurred that is explained in detail below.
The exception, which is assigned to class 'CX_SY_DYN_CALL_ILLEGAL_TYPE', was
not caught and
therefore caused a runtime error.
The reason for the exception is:
The call of the FORM "DETERMINE_DEFAULT_VALUES" is incorrect:
The actual parameter no. 2 is at PERFORM not compatible with the
structure type requested by FORM "DETERMINE_DEFAULT_VALUES".
The FORM "DETERMINE_DEFAULT_VALUES" is defined in program "SAPMJ1II".
This error occurs in Unicode if the fragment view of the types is
incompatible.
Can some one suggest if we need to apply any OSS NOTE.

How to configure SSO for web dynpro ABAP (not web dynpro Java)

Hi Experts,
    I am testing SSO in IDES for web dynpro ABAP (Not for web dynpro Java / not for portal). When I am entering url of web dynpro application in web browser like internet explorer, then it should ask for user id and password first time, after login whenever user would access that url, it must not ask for user ID and password (url would be access web browser in mobile). For this I select to configure single sign-on for web dynpro ABAP. I have done below works:
1). I have created a web dynpro application having url: http://susws076.sap.swk:<port>/sap/bc/webdynpro/sap/zadb_hello_world2
2). I run TCode SICF and access service node to "Zadb_hello_world2". Double click on it, hit change. pressed "logon data" tab, select "Alternative logon
     procedure"
   Then deleted all logon procedure other than "SSO Authentication" and saved.
3). Go to "STRUST" and create certificate, choosed "Environment==> Logon Ticket" fill the required parameters and execute. It is OK (no red traffic
     signal).
4). Execute TCode "RZ10" to change profile parameter, insert new parameter (indicated by red arrow)
After all this settings I opened a browser enter above URL and hit enter but there is an error
There is no login page. It directly showed this error page. No cookies is saving.
Can anyone tell me what all the settings/configuration other than this I have to do. And is there any wrong setting done by me?
How to set the for single sign-on?
Thanks in Advance

IPod Not Recognized in iTunes & "Software Required for Commun with iPod. .

Pleasse help! I have about 15 hours invested in this problem, includes 2.5 hours with Apple Technicians, and no help.
I have a new 30G Video iPod that isn't detected in iTunes, although I can see it in exlorer and listed as my G drive. The error message that appears when I start iTunes is,
"The software required for communicating wihtthe iPod is not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes to install the iPod software."
I have done the "5 R's" about 8 times, and tried other things including changing the drive letter, unintalling Norton, using the msconfig to limit what was running (per the Apple site directions), removed the temp files (per the Apple site directions, "soft reboots" of the iPod (Menu and round button holds), manually running "C:\Program Files\iPod\bin\iPodService.exe" from the RUN menu, and running regsvr32 c:\windows\system32\atl.dll (per the Apple Tech) from the RUN menu.
A few other notes, 1) in MSCONFIG, my iPod service does not seem to want to run, it shows as "stopped" 2)I had initally installed the iPodUpdater 2005-10-12, which didn't get me connected, and then later updated to 2005-11-17, which still didn't work. I have also installed from scratch from the apple site. When I try to run the Updater, my error reads "iPod Service Error". I don't even understand what this is supposed to do. Perhpas update the iPod software iteself?
When I connect to the other PC in my home, which was loaded with the same Windows CD's, iTunes fires right away and detects this iPod.
On the PC I am trying to coneect with, I have previously had a successful setup with an iPod mini, but now that doesn't work anymore either.
Apples next step is telling me to uninstall/reinstall Windows. This seems like a pretty drastic, and even more time consuming step . . . one that I'd rather not take unless it is fairly certain to resolve this problem
ANY SUGGESTIONS????
Thank you in advance.

Installing Java Add-In for an existing ABAP System -Error SQL compatibility

Hello gurus,
We have a system and it has only the ABAP instance! So my goal is install the JAVA iinstance. In this momment I´m reading the section "4.4.2 Installing the Java Add-In for an Existing ABAP System (Optional)" in installation guide "SAP ERP 6.0 SR3" (ABAP+JAVA). So, I want to install the JAVA instance which is the Java Add-In for an existing ABAP system!
So what I did was followed that instructions on that section in guide!
As you certainly know this process has three sequential phases:
1) Central Services Instance (SCS) Java Add-In
2) Database Instance Java Add-In
3) Central Instance Java Add-In
The first phase - Central Services Instance (SCS) Java Add-In - it already finished with success, but I´m faccing with a weird error in second phase Database Instance Java Add-In when I entered all required input parameters, SAPinst shows an error that says:
The database PRD has the wrong compatibility level. The database used for the installation of an SAP system must have compatibility level: 80 for MS SQL Server 2000 90 for MS SQL Server 2005 SOLUTION: See the MS SQL Server documentation on how to set the compatibility level for a database.
I don´t know what´s happen, in fact my database is an SQL Server 2008 (100), but I already change it at management studio, the compatibility level to MS SQL Server 2005, but still the error remains!!! I also tried to ran again the sapinst process, I restarted it but it still show me this error!!
Can you tell me why and how can I solve this problem?
Best regards,
João Dimas - Portugal

Hello Sunny,
I still have this error... I don´t know what do to more for this situation!
I found one not which report this error of compatibility - Note 1152240 - Setting Up Microsoft SQL Server 2008 (R2) - in chapter "VII TROUBLESHOOTING" which said to follow the instructions in chapter III - "Installing SAP systems based on SAP NetWeaver 7.0 SR3".
When I read this last chapter (III) it tell us to do:
If you want to install an SAP system based on SAP NetWeaver 7.0 SR3 on SQL Server 2008, you cannot use the Installation Master and Kernel DVD that you received from SAP or downloaded from SAP Service Marketplace. Instead, you have to do the following:
Patch your runtime libraries by applying the procedure that is described in note 684106 for your release and machine architecture.
Use a modified Installation Master DVD
For more information, see section "VI PROCEDURES" -> "Creating a modified Installation Master DVD".
Use a modified Kernel DVD
For more information, see section "VI PROCEDURES" -> "Creating a modified Kernel DVD".
I did everything that is said in the note (except the "Creating a modified Kernel DVD") because I can not access to the note 1480785 (it say: "The requested SAP Note is either in reworking or is released internally only")
Can you help me... can you guide me... please!?
Best regards,
