SAP Content Server sizing for DMS

Hi
Can anyone advise on the most appropriate way to 'size' for a new Content Server. Documents have been stored in the SAP DB till now, but the use is increasing, so now a new Content Server is to be added and all existing documents migrated into it. I have seen references in the past to SAP methodology for sizing the content server, but now cant find any.
Thanks

Dear John
Please find these links on how to do SAP content Server sizing.

Using SAP Content Server for SAP E-Recruitment

Hi SAP Experts,
We are presently implementing SAP E-Recruitment using BSP services, We are successfully runnig with Whole E-recruitng cycle when we use SAP system DB as storgae for External Candidtes' Documents.
But, Our Client wants to have SAP Content Server to store all documents uploaded by External/Internal Candidates becuase client is worrying that if SAP system DB holds such huge data base of Resumes, it may slow down the performance of SAP System.
So, We need inputs from you suggesting whether is it feasible to use SAP Content server for SAP E-Recruitment Implementation. SAP no where suggests to Content server. So, we are in deliema to go for content server or not. If it is feasible to use Content server, pls provide me proper links or documents for reference.
Please give your valuable inputs,
Thanks & Regards,
Sudheer Kumar P

Hi Sudheer,
We are considering the same option. We are concerned about performance after all these documents are uploaded too. Did you install a content server? How did it go and was it difficult to set up with e-rec?
Thanks

Sap Content server Direct Browser Access - docGet

We use SAP Content Server for DMS doc storage. Docs are stored without digital signing.
I am looking to access dms original files directly via web browser using the "docGet" command.
My url looks as shown:
http://pswdf009:1080/ContentServer/ContentServer.dll?docGet&pVersion=0045&contRep=K1&docId=361A524A3ECB5459E0000800099245EC
When I call the url, browser does not seem to be able to read the file type of the server response. An "open/save" dialog appears and when "open" is selected a subsequent dialog appears asking which application to use to open the file. Once the correct application is chosen, the document is displayed correctly.
Is there some way to instruct the browser the content-type is application/pdf?
Will CSAdmin parameter changes have any impact?
The browser is Internet Explorer 6.
Any help is appreciated.
Roger

Hi Roger,
you may of course find an answer here.
But mySAP PLM DMS is not a focus topic here (besides maybe connecting it into the SAP Portal and KM). Thus, you may be better off using a contact or a message to PLM.

Delay viewing archivelink images held in SAP content server

Hi,
We have implemented an indexing solution utilising SAP Archivelink and Content server. We are noting considerable delays when viewing documents, this only happens for the first document in a transaction and can take up to 6 minutes to display a document. As our users have a person on the telephone at the time this results in alot of smalltalk which is not desireable.
Does anyone know of any performance issues related to document storage in content server?
Many Thanks,
Pete White

Storing of MSDS in SAP Content Server - Part2

Hi Friends,
I already raised this issue in link given below.
Storing of MSDS in SAP Content Server
Ealier I did not tried this as we did not received the hardaware,
Now I did configuration as per the note " 1408009 - Settings for EH&S Product Safety documents" for SAP EHS document Type.
But when I try to generate report, its giving me error as given below.
Check Document Type SBR
Internal error in function C14SX_DOCUMENT_ORIGINAL_PUT (exception 0)
Saving document data has failed
Error while checking in and storing: report.rtf
Can you guys help me if any more configurations are needed or am I missing something. The content Server is of OpenText and not SAP Content Server.
Thanks.
With Warm Regards
Mangesh Pande

HI Mangesh,
Try to figure out if it is only DMS related - or if it is something wrong with the EH&S part of the setup:
Create an SBR Document manually via CV01n.
If this fails - at least the DMS Setup is wrong.
If this works - DMS settings should be fine and the problem is on EH&S side.
Check the Application log for errors as well - there might be more details in there.

SHarepoint as SAP Content Server Configuration

Actually this message is for Espen Leknes because I have read something from him i another message but if you guys know about this, all will be wellcome !!!!!!!
This is Andrea, Basis COnsultant. I am writing to you because I was reading lot of messages in SAP SDN regarding DMS and SAP Content Server.
I saw you have participated in lot of messages. I am specially interested in one of them which is about Sharepoint.
The customer I am working in would like to use Sharepoint as global Content Server and I would like to configure Sharepoint as SAP Content Server in order to save documents and attach them to sap objects (scanned invoices, manuals, cad drawings, etc)
I know it is not possible since Sharepoint is not SAP certified and http inteface from SAP (archivelink) does not work with this product.
I have read about Inet.DM and thinks like this.
I read you have configured SHarepoint as WebDav. In some post you have written:
Hi guys,
There is a third way, where you end up using Sharepoint as your content server
1. COnfigure a content server to use file storage
2. COnfigure the file area for webdav
3. The webdav is the sharepoint webdav
Voila, you are using sharepoint as your content server.
Why the heck you would do that is beyond me, but it works.
Ok, the question is:
I am using ECC60 and I dont have file storage option.
Is is possible to explain this again or sent me screenshots os OAC0 ?? It would be very useful.
Thanks so much in advance for this.
Andrea

I could find few of the links . Hope these are useful.

Server Config for DMS

Hi All,
We're having SAP ERP ECC 6.0, and are going to implement DMS soon. Can anyone guide me about server configuration required for the same.
Can we use 32bit servers for DMS and integrate it with existing 64bit servers for ERP?
Ashish

Hi,
DMS is part of ECC 6.0, you will only need content server to store DMS documents. It is possible to use 32 bit content server which talks with SAP (your 64 bit install) through http protocols. You need to plan one server for content server, on the same server you can install TREX search engine provides the RAM permits it.

How to Access data from SAP Content Server through SAP Portal

Hi Experts,
I want to aceess the data from SAP Content server through portal. Currently I am working on LSO business package. The SAP content server should work like Webdav as we uses KM as webdav.
I am trying to use this URL into the CMS address but it is not working
http://XXX-XXX-XXXX:1090/ConTentServer/ContentServer.dll?adminContRep&operation=docIdList&contRep=ZADGAS_LSO
Is there any other procedure for acceesing the DATA from SAP content server. ?
Thanks,
Ahmad

If your Content Server is being used by DMS, then you can use the DMS Connector for KM. This connector allows all documents stored in DMS to be accessed in Portal as if they are stored in KM. For more info see this:

SAP Content Server HTTP Interface ignores secKey

Hello.
I try to implement an own Content Server with the help of this url: http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/DE/f5/9561f5f3b111d1955b0000e82deb58/frameset.htm
The problem is, if try to test these functions on the SAP CS, secKey will always be ignored. The parameters 'docProt', 'security' and 'Protection' are set to on.
The function 'putCert ' also does not work and always show the error 'security.cpp(615): SsfVerfiyError 12'.
Thanks for the help.
Best Regards
René

Hi Alexander,
SAP KM always has to access on the architecture level where the document object model is defined. There is no generic repository manager (the connectory from KM to xy) for ArchiveLink or SAP Content Server.
Repository managers access e.g. on the level of mySAp PLM DMS for which one of these connectors is available.

SAP Content Server Size Limitations

Hi,
Has SAP Content Server any limitations regarding the amount of information to be stored ?.
We have a 160 Gb/ year data to be stored and we doubt to use the SAP content Server or some other content server ( IXOS, Documetum ... ).
Best Regards,
Francisco.

Hi,
I don't think there would be any sizing restrictions:
I found some SAP Notes at this link:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_47x200/helpdata/en/40/4695331ea6424b942a953616f01b9e/frameset.htm
Where there are a list of notes which 'might' be useful..
You might want to check this note if you are using UNIX:
