RFC User for satellite systems

Hello Gurus,
I just wanted to ask about one issue. We are a SAP partner and using Solution Manager in VARs scenario. There are many systems of our customers connected to our Solution Manager..
Now I want to ask about RFC user(s). As I see, in our Solution Manager there are many users(communications type C) with Synthax SOLMAN<system id> or something like that. It means basically, that we have for every particular customerS system one SOLMAN user for RFC(cust_scout) in our Solution Manager. My question is if we can replace all of these users with only one RFC user for all the systems and customers?
Many thanks in advance for your help

Hi Miloslav,
Technically, it will work that you define one common RFC user in your SolMan for communication (RFC BACK destination) from all connected managed systems.
BUT, I would never recommend it.
Once a managed system cause issues in your SolMan, you are not able (or at least it's much more difficult) to identify the managed system. Same happens, if a invalid password in the BACK destination leads to a locked user.
My recommendation: Spend the extra effort in creating a user per managed system. Operation will be much easier later.

RFC users locked after system copy in production system

Hi,
BW_User,MDBTC(RFC users) system users were locked in our BI Production system at the same time system copy activity was running in the Quality system(production to quality) so as per our colleagues concern after system copy they started Quality system with out changing background work-process 0 so some jobs were triggered which were copied from production system.
Is there any cause to lock RFC users in production system for system copy? If there is any other reason where we can check logs
Thanks
Jalandhar Reddy

Hi,
Well maybe i am wrong to analyze your problem .
Anyway I faced this issue to in our system before and we found that one background job was running in a system that has basically prompting an RFC connection to another system. In the t.code SM59 and there was wrong password was put in.We just reset the password and it was worked fine.
You can try for this..

Creation of Ibase for satellite systems in Solution Manager 4.0 SP13

Hello!
Can enybody help?
We are trying to creat Ibase for Satellite systems in solution landscape in SolMan system, using the automatic generation(TA SOLUTION_MANAGER) for specific solution.
After successfully generation we have only one iBase for one solman system only, but there are some systems in solution.
Does anyone know how to generate iBase for all systems in solution?

Hi,
There will be only one iBase for a solution.
Goto tcode IB52 and check. You will find all the systems assigned to your solution appear there.

SAPinst Error--Phase 2--Creation of User for SAP System

Hi,
Thnx a lot for the suggestion Markus
I have created the directories required.
The SAP installation has started, but now I am getting the message as below during the ORACLE DB Installation phase,when I run the Oracle ./RUNINSTALLER in Bash Unix:-
[orasmd@SOLMAN SAP]$ ./RUNINSTALLER

Working in /oracle/stage/102_64/database/SAP ...
The environment variable ORACLE_HOME is not set! abort ...
I have set the ORACLE_HOME env variable as below:-
ORACLE_HOME=/oracle/SMD/102_64
export ORACLE_HOME
But I get the same message again as above.
Do we need to set the ORACLE_HOME env variable in the BASH_PROFILE directly??? Coz I heard that if we set it with the Export command then the env is set only for the current instance and not permanently.
If so what is the exact entry I need to make in the BASH_PROFILE???

No users are shown for Service Desk in SOLMAN for satellite systems

Hello!
I would like to set up the business partners for Service Desk in SAP Solution Manager.
If I choose the solution and execute "Edit --> Create Business partner" for the SAP R/3 4.7 then I get the warning no users are shown under the system.
If I log onto the satellite system and make some changes in su01 or pfcg the situation does not change.
<b>How can this problem be solved?</b>
Thank you very much!
regards
Thom

Thank you very much!
The problem is solved!
Im my case was necessary to apply SAP Note 1055630.
I have assigned the role "SAP_SM_S_USER_GRP" to the user with RFC_READ connection, refreshed the last alert in DSWP and tha is.

RFC trouble with satellite systems

Hi all.
When i imort transport request from Charm - DEV to QAS system or QAS to PRD system
Logon screen appers to 000 clientst.
BUT!
in SMSY when i check RFC to the QAS 000 and PRD 000.
Check says all okey and green.
Any ideas?? where should i check more ....
Thanks
Sindry

Hi Sindry,
To allow import into a system using an automatic job via ChaRM you must assign additional authorisations to TMSADM on the satellite system. This trusted user must be granted authorisations to carry out the CTS import in client 000, otherwise it will prompt user for a 000 login. This is not recommended for Production system however.
To enable user to use the trusted RFC connection, must have access to S_RFCACL authorisation object.
Hope this helps

CSOL Cross System Object Lock - RFC error in satellite system

Hi
We are currently implementing Solution Manager 7.1 (ChaRM) and of the mandatory requirements is to activate Cross System Object Lock.
I have globally activated this in Solman and have gone into /TMWFLOW/CMSCONF to activate for our development client. This is now activated.
A transport has now been created in ChaRM and I login to the above mentioned development system and make a customizing change. I then choose the transport and save change. I am presented with an error:
"Error in RFC SM_DSMCLNT001_BACK to Solution Manager System" (Message No. STMWFLOW025)
I have now been looking at this for a few hours and found OSS Note 824521. However, I have already done all this. From a RFC perspective we have:
SOLMAN:
SM_DSMCLNT001_BACK - works fine in SM59. The assigned user has all the correct profiles.
In transaction SDCCN, the above RFC appears also.
In transaction SM30, table BCOS_CUST, "CHARM_DEST" and "OSS_MSG" are both set to destination NONE.
SATELLITE SYSTEM:
In transaction SDCCN, the above mentioned RFC exists
In transaction SM30, table BCOS_CUST, "CHARM_DEST" and "OSS_MSG" are both set to the above mentioned RFC
The user SMB_DSM for the RFC only exists in Solman and not in satellite system. Don't think this is needed though.
As soon as I deactivate CSOL in /TMWFLOW/CMSCONF in Solman (for development client), I can make changes and the above error (in red) does not appear. However, we needed CSOL working and this error not to appear.
Any suggestions???
Thanks
Shaun

Ok, the resolution was to ensure SMB_X82 (in Solman) has the following roles and profiles:
Roles
SAP_SOLMANTMWCOL
Z_SOLMAN_BACK
Profiles
D_SOLMAN_RFC
S_BDLSM_READ
S_CSMREG
S_CUS_CMP
S_SD_CREATE
S_TMW_ADMIN
This resolved my issue.
Thanks

To view the list of users in Satellite Systems from Solman

Dear Friends,
We wish to view the list of users in a satellite system (say ECC5.0) from solution manager 4.0, can anyone help us to find the same.
Regards
Senthil

Hello Senthil,
You mean the list of BP associated to the satellite users already created? If this is the case
in DSWP, choose a Solution that has your satellite as system and go to Edit->BP
Add the satellite system to the list and if I don´t remember wrong you will get the
BP for the satellite users already created in the righ chart.
Sory if I don´t get the correct question?

RFC User for Connectivity with ABAP Server Proxy Required?

Hi people,
I am just wondering how I set-up my connectivity between XI and my business system B.
Our basis already set-up the connection to the runtime workbench from B->XI
For that sake they've added the xirwbuser to B (Xi has it as well, of course).
Now I am configuring the whole thing in the Directory. There I need an receiver agreement and a channel. For that I take the adapter type "XI". Anyway, I need to give here an RFC destination as well. I've added one of type "H".
And now the issue: Do I really need a separate user for that rfc connection? I thought with proxies the systems are somewhat like "hard-wired" and do not need special users.
Anyway, if I need a dedicated RFC user: Is a certain role enough or do I need special roles depending on the stuff I am doing in the business system?
Thanks in advance!
Helge

You can of course use an existing service user.
But for monitoring purpose it is receommended to use a seperate user. (Think about system log entries).
The user needs the role SAP_XI_APPL_SERV_USER.

Downtime Management Notification Users in Satellite Systems

Hi folks,
I'm starting to set up Solution Manager Downtime Management. It's kind of cumbersome but I realize it is new functionality and will get better over time. I'm trying to set up the notification users but when I select "Notification Settings" of a system then "Add Internal Recipients" then "from System Users" it only pulls in users in client 000 of the satellite system. Obviously we don't have our users in 000 so how do I make DT Management look in client 100 for the list of users? I know I can add business partners but don't want that right now. I've already looked through the setup guide in Work Centers in SAP Solution Manager [original link is broken] and notes 1129385 "Downtime Management with SAP Solution Manager: FAQ" & 1129052 "Downtime Management with SAP Solution Manager: a brief guide" so don't need links to those. Any help is appreciated, thanks,
David

Hi
what is your solutionn manager version?
as per the note 1129385, from SP17, downtime management sends notication to all the system users.
again review here [Notifying Users About Scheduled Downtime |http://help.sap.com/saphelp_sm70ehp1_sp23/helpdata/en/6b/575f97df0b47808ead4c1f5e2df172/frameset.htm]
regarding client, SOST(Email,sms) settings also client specific.
Have you configured Email settings on client 100 too? if not ... please configure and try.
Thanks,
Jansi

Minimum Trusted RFC's for productive system

Hi!
We have very strict requirements dealing with set up of Trusted RFC for productive system for ChaRM approach in SOLMAN.
Can some one tell me which Trusted RFC's and users for the productive system do I need?
a) Trusted RFC is not mandatory for the productive system
b) Trusted RFC only in productive system, client: 000, users: 1 communication user and 1Dialog user
c) Trusted RFC in productive system for each client with users...
Thank you very much!

Create the function modules in SE37 and set the remote-enabled flag in the attributes section. Then import them into XI.
Create a custom Z table through SE11 on each system to store any data, and the code in each function module would reference it. (Either that or just hard-code everything)
In short yes it can be done through SE37, no you don't need SE38.
I think you're talking about function groups which is a container for the function module. You can do everything through SE37 if you use the Goto->Function Groups-> Create Group option and give it the same name as your Function Module.

Activate EWA for satellite system in 3.2

Hello,
We have solution manager 3.2 with all the latest patches, and have included the satellite system in the landscape and generated the RFC's. Need to activate EWA for the system. Have defined a Solution. Need to how do you include a system in the solution because when i click on Solution directory --> setup EWA, it gives a message,
"NO system found in landscape"
Any suggestions / inputs are appreciated.
Thanks and cheers,
Chetan

HI ,
Kindly follow the below steps for the EWA activation:
1)go to transaction SMSY enter your system details and check the system data is updating with the SLD (check this option in SMSY_SETUP)
2)then define logical component fo rthis system then define this logical component under solution
3)you will be having a option under that EWA configuration click on EWA active (check )
and check the Send to SAP if you want the EWA repor thas to reach SAP once the Report is Red after analysis done in Solman by the Job SMS*
4)then go to SDCCN in the solman then trigger the activation of session data for the particular sysytem if the RFC SM_SIDCLNT<CLNT>_back exists then task created in the satelite system for the session data to Solamn
5)then check the EWA report and do processing in the operation for that solution

Charm Prerequisites for satellite systems

What versions of sap needs to be installed on the satellite system in order to work with solution manger charm.
For example can charm be made to work with a SAP 4.6C system?
Where is this documented? I did a search and can not find it anywhere.
Easy points.
Cheers

Hi Avrohom Weissman
Sorry i forgot mention it, in the right hand side, look for the Configuration Guide SAP Solution Manager as of SP15 (based on your SP level of Solman) which will give all the prerequisites of the respective scenarios of Solution Manager.
For Charm refer the page number 10.
