Role Upload - System Aliases not used

We are having a strange occurance during role upload.
In the migrated content area, iViews are being created in folders that refer to system aliases used (e.g. R3, BW, etc.).  However, the "System" property of each iView is set to the logical system name (e.g. RDV123, BDV123) rather than the alias.  We would like the role upload to set the "System" property to the alias names by default.  Does anyone know how to accomplish this?  Does anyone know why it doesn't do this in the first place?

Thanks for the input.
Right now my system connectors are all setup with their logical names (e.g. RDV123) as well as a generic alias that is used across landscapes (R3).
My dilemma is transport to QA and Production. I could very well go into PROD and QA and make an alias on those production systems for dev (e.g. make an alias for RPR123 to also show as RDV123), but this would create conflicts.  I;d prefer to just use very generic aliases across all systems such as "R3".
Is there no way into tricking the role upload into referencing some table to know that instead of logical name, use default alias so it will be transportable?

  • Upload System folder to use Classic in OS 10.4.6?

    Hello, I have recently upgraded my old iMacs (400MHz & 500 MHz) to OS 10.4.6 and they both seem to run fine, except one thing, they don't have Classic. I have Classic ablility on my iBook G4 which uses OS 10.3.7.
    My question is there anyway to just download the "system folder" that Classic uses in my OS 10.3.7 and upload it onto both the computers in order to use CLassic?
    This is important since I am going to by upgraded the two iBook to OS 10.4.6 and that would be great to have Classic without trying to install OS 9 then OS 10.4.6, to just use Classic, and that opens up another can of worms when trying to back up the new address book and emails, etc. But I hope there is a way. Help if you can, thanks.

    I'm not sure if this is a "big discovery" or not but I actually did copy the system folder and applications (Mac OS 9) from my iBook G4 running OS 10.3.7 to my iMac G3 running OS 10.4.6. I buurned it onto a CD and to my amazement it works!
    I went into Classic in preferences and it found the Macintosh HD (I had restarted a few times, while going through to each step)
    I put the system folder and application of OS 9 in to the Macintosh HD just like they were on my iBook.
    When it was in Classic and it found the folder, I started it up, it said something about needing to update the folder, and it wouldn't affect boot folder (or something of that nature), so I clicked OK and it started up and I was running Classic.
    That is only the half of it. And I had called up a person in Tech Support at Apple earlier in the day and they told me I would need to "Install" off the original 2nd CD (additional software)and that would give me Classic. But I bypassed that and just took the folder from my iBook and put it onto OS 10.4.6.
    I restarted.
    The whole reason for me doing this stuff with classic was to be able to use my mother's "Mail" application (Outlook Express 5.02) and get her emails and address book back with all of her "groupings" (she has like 10,000 email addresses).
    So what I did from there was to get the copy I made of my mother's stuff (I had made a copy of Microsoft User Data, Contact Export, and the Mail application). I then proceeded to swap out the Microsoft User Data That I had on the new OS 10.4.6 with that folder from the OS 9.2.1 and put the old one in documents with the new one on the desktop.
    I went to Classic in System Pref. and started it up.
    I then went into the Identities folder in the Microsoft User Data (old one), Main Identity, then Messeges (outlook express file). Clicked on it and it said something like "rewriting strings" or something along those lines. It said something about starting up the email again and I ignored all of it because at this point I could see that I successfully got my mother's mail back in classic.
    I looked and saw that her address book was there with all her groups. (I should note that I already knew the mail would work because I checked by uploading the same files/folders onto my iBook with Classic's help).
    But now I had an operational mail off of my iBook and back onto my mother's computer.
    I then decided to press my luck and see if the computer could boot off the OS 9 system folder. I went into Start Up Disk in System Pref. and sure enough OS 10.4.6 was there along with the new OS 9.2.2 system folder. Hmm, should I try it will it work? The guy online I think said it wouldn't work and the "pot-head" guy in Apple Tech Support (he did sound stoned) said I won't be able to do any of this. F*ck it.
    I restarted on OS 9.2.2.
    It actually booted up and I was on the desktop and I went to see if I could actually use Outlook on this desktop and clicked on it, there was an erroe that said I needed to copy the identities folder from Users:my name: basically just get the identities folder, and move it to the outlook express folder. I did so by copying (option key).
    I went back to the outlook express, clicked on it and started it up. It worked, it works, just like it did originally (I should note I already had the Mail set up in OS 10.4.6 to our ISP and it is a POP account, it was set up before I tried any of this). I sent myself an email to anotherr account and it worked.
    I had talked on the phone with tech support people for at least a couple of hours, coming to the conclusion that I had improperly backed-up my data (emails,etc.) on both (my iMac G3 was running OS 10.2.8 and OS 9.2.1 before I zeroed and formatted it to OS 10.4.6) OS 10.2.8 and OS 9.2.1 and since I didn't have Classic in OS 10.4.6 I coudn't look and see what had and would have to reinstall from the original install CDs then upgrade to 9.2.2 and then "upgrade" to OS 10.4.6 to even have a chance of seeing what I had; and even though I told them what files I had they couldn't tell me if it was correct. My mother was freaking out on me, I won't go into details but she was extremely upset with me. I felt horrible I couldn't even load the stuff from OS 10.2.8.
    I thought I had failed and resigned that it was lost. Then a couple of days later I thought "hmm, I see that my comp has Classic I wonder if it would work if I uplloaded it onto my comp" I found out that both of the back ups I made worked, and that I could import the stuff I had in OS 10.2.8 into my Mail (1.3.9) on OS 10.3.7 on my iBook G4.
    I am absolutely ecstatic about the fact that Classic works beyond the bounds of what you guys and everyone else said. I would have wasted a lot of time reinstalling all the OSs onto the computers just to have CLassic and now that I'm upgrading four Macs in my house to OS 10.4.6, I can now have classic without absolutely taking HOURS to upload the installers and do damage control. But thanks to you guys who helped and actually I still need help with exporting and importing messages and exporting my address book in OS 9 but now it is easier and alleviates future problems with other systems (I think ). Thanks anyway.

  • Role Upload template for SAP GRC CUP 5.3

    Good Morning / Afternoon / Evening SAP Security Gurus,
    I am looking to upload end user roles via a role upload template spreadsheet for use in SAP GRC CUP 5.3.  I am referring specifically to the recommended template mentioned in step 11 of the 5.3 Post Installation CUP guide, so that roles can be picked within ERM for workflow.
    According to the guide, it recommends uploading from the backend systems via a spreadsheet - any template versions or advice on finalising this would be most appreciated.
    Best Regards

    Thanks Ashish,
    Someone else recommended this option as well via another forum. Have tried it out and working fine. 
    Thanks for the reply

  • Time Capsule Not Using Full Capacity

    Good morning. I have a 1tb Time Capsule and use Time Machine to backup my iMac and my son's MBP.
    The Time Machine backup is reporting that 235gb of 998gb is available. But it's been "stuck" at about 235gb for weeks. It seems as if the system is not using all available capacity. Is this normal?
    I should note that at one time I had miscellaneous folders and files on the Time Capsule (from a PC). Would those miscellaneous files have somehow "blocked" access to the rest of the free space? I have removed those misc files, but still not seeing the system use my full drive capacity.
    Any ideas how to get the system to use the rest of the drive?
    Thanks in advance, John

    The Time Capsule is reporting on the space that backups are using on the drive. Backups are stored in a special container called a sparsebundle file.
    Sparsebundles behave differently than normal files. The sparsefundle expands as more data is added.But, it behaves differently when files are deleted.
    So, lets say that the sparsebundle is up to 100 GB.  Now, you delete 10 GB from your backups beasue you don't need the files any longer. So, you think you should see 90 GB now.
    The sparsebundlw will still show as a 100 GB. It will begin to "grow" again when more than 100 GB is present.

  • How to not display nodes in a tree if Oracle roles are NOT used?

    How to not display nodes in a tree if Oracle roles are NOT used?
    We don't use Oracle DB roles to grant users access to Forms from the menu. We use a template and role system of our own. Basically a few tables with templates and roles.
    We want to convert our normal Forms menu to a tree menu and one of our key requirements is that when the tree is populated ONLY nodes with programs (i.e. forms) he has been granted to execute is shown.
    Since we don't use Oracle Roles how to do this in a tree?
    I created a function to show/hide LEAF nodes, BUT problem is that there are sub-menu nodes showing even if the leaf-nodes under it has not being displayed. My function has suppressed it.
    My tree query is like this:
    SELECT
         t.status, LEVEL, t.label, t.icon, t.node VALUE
    FROM
         tma_tree_menu t
    WHERE
    tma_authenticate_sys_chk_role(USER, t.node) = 1
    CONNECT BY
         PRIOR t.node = t.master
    START WITH
         t.MASTER IS NULL
    ORDER SIBLINGS BY
    t.position
    The tma_authenticate_sys_chk_role will return 1 only if the user has access to the form under that node.
    I tried the FTree functions in Forms but even that has nothing.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Would you share the source code? I guess what I need is how exactly you retreive the user credentials from the DB table and set that boolean variable.
    and then how to condition it in UIX?

  • Fiori: incorrect alias used when multiple system aliases assigned

    Hello all and Masayuki Sekihara
    I'm implementing SAP Fiori PO/PR/Contract approval.
    There is only 1 gateway system currently in order to support 4 ECC systems.
    (Sandbox, development, quality and production)
    Everything is working correctly when assigning only one (Sandbox) SAP system alias to the gateway service of PO approval for example.
    However when we assign multiple system aliases and set the sandbox system alias as default things go wrong.
    (Currently IW_BEP is not yet installed on the development; Quality and productive system)
    And we noticed the service is resulting in an error message because these BEP function modules can not be found on the target system.
    However the issue is that it should not call these systems as we have flagged Sandbox system as default.
    Anyone has an idea or note for this?
    (We temporary fixed this by assigning only a single alias to the services).
    But in a later phase we want to add all in order to be able to test on all systems and run production as default.
    Thanks for your help.

    I don't want to use the MOC.
    I want the behaviour like mentioned in the note:
    The default system is used whenever the service is not called as MOC. If you have defined more than one default system alias, the first system is used as the default.
    How can I achieve this?
    According to my understanding now I should make sure ";m"o is not added to the URL, but how can this be achieved?
    Thanks!

  • CUA Roles residing in Child system are not showing in Central System

    I just hooked up CUA today and have linked 8 child systems to the central system.  The 8 child system users and roles have already been established in the child systems.  Do I need to run program susr_zbv_get_receiver_profiles in each of the child systems to get the roles in the child systems to show up in the Central System for each user?  I tried this in one child system and it worked.
    Or is there something else I need to do without going into each child system?
    I tried this program susr_zbv_get_receiver_profiles in the Central system but it did not work.

    are you looking for roles or profiles? profiles will not show up in the central system. If you run SCUL do you see anything? when you first added the child system did you use an SAP user that had the proper permissions? In both the child and the parent? There are two roles that the user must belong to to add the child to the parent they are SAP_BC_USR_CUA_SETUP_CENTRAL and SAP_BC_USR_CUA_CENTRAL.
    If you have any question about the permissions of these user at the time you added the child to the parent I'd delete the child and re-add with either the above roles or a user with SAP_ALL in BOTH the child and the parent systems

  • Where-used list for system aliases?

    Is there a way to get a list of all the iViews that reference a particular system alias (or better, a set of system aliases?). Possibly by querying the database?
    Thanks,
    Sean

    Hi Sean,
    Yes there is a TRICKY way to do it with standard SAP Portal functionality.
    But again this is tricky and you must keep sharp all the time.
    1. In the Portal goto: Content Administrator > Multiple Property Replacement
    2. Right click on the folder Portal Content (or one of its sub-folders); and select the action "Add folder to list"
    3. click next in the wizzard
    4. you should now be on step 2 of the wizzard and only select/check iViews
    5. Select the 2nd radio button "Search objects by property ID"
    6. in the field Property ID you must fill in "System" (without the quotes)
    7. in the field New Value you can fill in anything as it is not used, but you must fill in something, like TEMP
    8. click next in the wizzard
    --- this takes a while as it queries all iViews for the property "System" ---
    9. this screen will show you a statistic overview, like a headcount, but you cannot use it for a 1-on-1 chek yet
    10. click next in the wizzard
    11. this screen will show two containers left and right where you can select object
    --- DO NOT click next anymore from this point on ---
    12. with your mouse or ctrl-a select the contents of the right container and paste it into Excel.
    Now you have a list of all iviews that have a system property and the value of that system property.
    13. Cancel/Abort the Wizzard!....

  • Role upload does not change the delta links

    Hi,
    We are using the Role upload functionality in the portal to upload BW roles by selecting the "Convert roles to worksets" and "Overwrite existing content" options.
    The newly created workset (corresponding to the uploaded role) is then copied and pasted as a delta link in another folder.
    We upload the BW role again whenever some changes are made to the original BW role (such as addition/deletion of reports).
    However, these changes are not getting reflected in the delta link (although the delta link dependency still exists).
    Does delta link work only for manual deletion/addition of portal content and the changes do not filter through using a role upload with overwrite?
    It is definitely not working for us using the role upload functionality and It seems that overwriting content using role upload does not impact the associated delta links.
    Any solution/workaround to this issue would be greatly appreciated.

  • JCOerror: This system does not let you log on using a password

    Hi,
    "JCOerror: This system does not let you log on using a password"
    This is the error message I get from MII tries to connect to the Production ECC using my credentials to perform a BAPI call.
    These credentials work fine interactively (using the SAP GUI) and for BAPI calls from MII on SAP Development instances.
    I can interpret this message in two ways:
    - My login can not log on using password (though I can interactively)
    - The server does not allow logging on using password only. (It might require to pre-authorize the connecting server as well).
    I guess my question can be if this error requires adding additional rights to my login for the production environment, or if this is a global SAP setup for this system?  Or something else?
    In either way, what is required to have this work?
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    Kindly try the following options.
    Try executing the BAPI seperately in se37, using your login credentials.
    Check whether RFC is enabled for the BAPI.
    Check whether the SAP server is details are furnished correctly in "SAP Server"(available under "Data Services") editor.
    We can ensure this by checking the connection status link in xMII.(Link is available under "Data Services").
    If connection status is "Running" then SAP server setting configuration is fine. Else it is not configured properly.
    Try executing the BAPI in BLS(Business Logic Services) using JCO connector.
    I believe if any one of these scenarios fail then "Proxy Error" might thrown.
    Thanks
