SAP Java and Solaris Zones SolMan 4.0

May require Solaris Zones experience to continue.
I have three SAP database instances/central instances running in three sparse Solaris zones with no problem.
I have created a new sparse zone for a new SAP installation (Solution Manager 4.0) and started the installation. SAP requires a 1.4.2 SDK even though Java 1.5 comes with Solaris 10. The 1.4.2 SDK is in /usr/j2se. The installation in the sparse zone errors out because it can't get "write" rights to /usr/j2se/jre/lib/security/local_policy.jar as it is trying to install some security encryption JCE component.
I have thought about creating a /usr/j2se_zonename file system, copying the contents of /usr/j2se into it and then mounting /usr/j2se_zonename in the zone as a lofs with the name /usr/j2se. However when I do the copy of /usr/j2se I get some recursion errors.
Any thoughts about how to add a writable /usr/j2se into the sparse zone with the least amount of effort ? Otherwise plan B would be to create a "large" zone with a writable /usr directory.
Received a great answer, that while it may not be architecturally "pure" it may get the job done.
You might just download the relevant JDK tarball and unpack that
somewhere in your zone (anywhere you like), and point SAP at it...
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/download.html
Get the one called "self extracting file"-- you can unpack that anywhere
you want.

Hi Russ,
no you only have to generate two RFCs to your R/3 and assign them in SMSY to for system monitoring
Then you need a Solution, assign your R/3 to the Solution, setup the system monitoring.

Data transfer between SAP & Java and Vice versa using IDOC Process

Dear Experts,
        We are working on one of the good requirement related to data transfer between SAP and Java software. Client requirement is, they want to transfer the data in both the ways (from SAP --> Java and Vice versa also).
In detail is, after sales order creation using one custom program loading plan details will be calculated. Once loading dates are confirmed then, user will release the sales document to transfer the data from SAP to Java using "Outbound IDOC processing". Similarly in that JAVA software some shipment details will be performed, once completed from JAVA software again details needs to be pumped back to SAP as "Inbound IDOC Processing".
For this fields are already identified from external software SAP and we are looking for the same to perform the steps in SAP.
At this stage, I need your expert opinion / feedback how to go about at this stage.
Meaning,
                 1. What are the customizing steps needs to be done in SAP..?
                 2. How to trigger the :Outbound IDOC process" once the documents are "Released" from custom transaction
                 3. How to create the link between SAP and JAVA to transfer the data between these 2 software
                 4. How to trigger the "Inbound IDOC Process" from JAVA software to SAP and how to store the data in SAP
Experts, please give your feedback in terms of reply or by sending the step by step process to fulfill this client requirement.
Thanks for your cooperation.
Regards,
Ramesh

Maybe too many open questions in the same document.
Maybe you should repost a more specific question in a technical forum.
This looks like a small project where you already know what you want, maybe you should contract a technical specialist so he proceeds to the implementation!

Resource Management and Solaris Zones Developer Guide

Solaris Information Products ("Pubs") is creating a
developer guide for resource management and Solaris Zones.
The department is seeking input on content from application
developers and ISVs.
We plan to discuss the different categories of applications
that can take advantage of Solaris resource management
features, and provide implementation examples that discuss
the particular RM features that can be used.
Although running in a zone poses no differences to most
applications, we will describe any possible limitations and
offer appropriate workarounds. We will also provide
information needed by the ISV, such as determining
the appropriate system calls to use in a non-global zone.
We plan to use case studies to document the zones material.
We would like to know the sorts of topics that you would
like to see covered. We want to be sure that we address
your specific development concerns with regard to these
features.
Thank you for your comments and suggestions.

Hi there, i'm using solaris resource management in a
server with more thant 2thousand acounts.
Created profiles for users, defaul, staff, root and
services.Seeing the contents of your /etc/project file could be helpful.
But while using rctladm to enable syslog'ing, I set up
global flags of "deny" and "no-local-action" in almos
everything.The flags on the right hand side of the rctladm(1M) output are read-only:
they are telling you the characteristics of the resource control in question (what
operations the system will allow the resource control to take).
Now, many aplications don't work because they are
denied enough process.max-stack-size and
process.max-file-descriptor for them to work.
Applications such has prstat.If prstat(1) is failing due to the process.max-file-descriptor control value, that's
probably a bug. prstat(1) is more likely bumping into the limit to assess how many file
descriptors are available, and then carrying on--you're just seeing a log message since
prstat(1) tested the file descriptor limit, and you've enabled syslog for that control. Please
post the prstat(1) output, and we'll figure out if something's breaking.
I don't find a way to disable the global flags. You can't. I would disable the syslog action on the process.max-stack-size control first;
there is an outstanding bug on this control, in that it will report a false triggering event--
no actual effect to the process. (If you send me some mail, I will add you as a call record
on the bug.)
Can anyone tell me:
how to disable global flags?
how to disable and enable solaris resource management
all together?You could raise all of the control values, but the resource control facility (like the resource
limit facility it superseded) is always active. Let's figure out if you're hitting the bug I mentioned,
and then figure out how to proceed.

EM 12c and Solaris Zone Monitoring

Hi all,
I am using Oracle EM 12c to monitor Oracle database server which run on Solaris zone, which is capped to run using only 4 cores.
BUT the Host management home page is still showing "Total Cores" of 8 (I am using Sun T4-1).
Is there some configuration which required to be done to reflect the number of capped CPU.
Also is there a way to isolate the CPU, Memory, Filesystem and Network utilization to only look at the local zone?
I suspect what I see now represent the resource utilization of the physical machine.
Thank you.
-Joel

Loc,
I've opened quite a few SRs, some handled well, some not. My biggest issue perhaps is that SRs are needed at all. We are a small shop that relied on OEM 10.2 for a long time, skipped over 11G and went right to 12R2. It was a culture shock, and I'm not sure if skipping the version added to our woes.
There are 3 DBAs here, with Oracle experience between 13 and 18 years, we are not newbies. I took the em12c class from Oracle.
But still, acceptance of its use has not been high, mostly because it's no longer the quick, targeted place we 'go to'. It's a huge product now, with much built-in. We are finding we need a mind adjustment to use it and the transition period related to how much time we can spend on that. Our intent, though, was to make things easier, not harder.
Case in point is our implementation of DataGuard. This project was new to us and I made EM12C upgrade as a predecessor project because I needed its help. I ultimately abandoned it, we hired a consultant, we learned manual steps, and that's what we use today. Everything is homegrown.
I feel as through the purpose for EM moved from a DBA monitoring tool. Remember OEM 10.2 and its initial summary page that showed the overall health of everything on one shot? I can't do that in em12c, or at least haven't found that.
Here are some SRs:
SR 3-6392247151
Sr 3-7159111371
SR 3-6645421051
* SR 3-6608820051
SR 3-6667182071
* Covers "invalid objects" missing, something we previously relied on.
Back to the original question of this post - I understand now that if we use EM to switch our databases, the role reversal will show. We would have loved to rely on EM for everything. Now that we must do everything manually, I have to then manually drop the target being monitored and re-add it. Again, something that should make our jobs easier is now harder.
Thanks for listening. Am I really the only DBA that says EM12C is harder to use for basic functionality?

OSB and Solaris Zones

Hi,
Does anybody have any experience of running OSB inside a Solaris zone?
I'm experimenting with this at the moment and would like to share the OSB installation with the global zone, but keep the /usr/etc and /usr/tmp directories where the host-specific stuff is stored private.
Thanks.

Java installation + solaris zones ...

Hi ...
I had installed Solaris 10 in x86 VM ... created the 2 local zones under Global zone. So I want know whether I can install two diffrent versions of java in the two diffrent local zones & try to open both the versions of Java in the global zone at the same moment?
if yess ... then kindly provide me the step-by-step procedure to do this ..
thanks in advance,
Sam

If the zones are "full" zones than it would seem to be a snap - but why are your running zones on a VM ?
I just take the standard build and clone it using VIC, play with the new VM until I have rendered it useless, then wipe it.

IE5, Java and Solaris?!

hi! i run a solaris 8 system with a sparc cpu. now i install internet explorer from mircosoft. but there is nor virtual mashine or java included!? i need java in my browser...
so i download the plugin for solaris but there is no internet explorer support! only for netscape...
please help me how i can include java in my browser.

Hello fLaTpInG,
Is there a reason that you do not want to use Netscape? IE Java Plug-In support has been discontinued by Sun. Netscape 4.x is the only browser that currently supported by the Java Plug-In.
Microsoft has information on using Java Plug-In VM for Solaris at:

How to find SAP java realted roles for ABAP and Basis

Hi Gurus,
I am new in SAP Security First week, I got the assignment to find the SAP Roles and Trans for ABAP and Basis in all Systems like Ecc, BI, ......
I use SE16 ->AGR_TCODES then SAP* in Table Name it give me all SAP Roles and Trans.
Pls help me to get only SAP Java and Basis roles and Trans Seperately
Thanks

Hi,
Are you speaking about the standrad SAP roles? If yes, you can have a look at BC and ABAP roles. However, if your question is about the created roles, you should see the convention that was followed in your organization to identify the roles.

SAP XI and SLD

Hi Everyone
I have successfully installed (SAP ABAP+ SAP JAVA and XI) but I don't recall installing SLD during the WAS 6.4 installation process. Did I missed any steps or how do i verify SLD is successfully installed and configured
Thanks again.

Hi Ravi,
The System Landscape Directory 6.40 is installed as a part of the SAP Web AS Java 6.40 SR1 system
The following steps are required to configure the SLD for XI:
Applying SAP Note 712594
Maintaining SLD Connection Parameters in the Integration Server
Maintaining Server Settings in the SLD
Updating the CR Data
Configuring the SLD Bridge
Maintaining a Business System for the Integration Server
You can find more information in SAP Exchange Infrastructure Installation Guide under Post Installation Activities -> Performing System Landscape Directory (SLD) Configuration (Page 34)

Java on Solaris 10

Dear All,
I need some guidance on Java version compatibility and configuration with Solaris 10. We are having SunOS 5.10 Generic_144488-17, but in the DSEE installation we have used JES 5 which have built in problems, which actually de graded system cacao services and libraries. Later we resolved this issue by applying patch and upgraded the cacao. Here the question is, now i need to verify the Java on the system is reliable and accurate. Could you provide me some link, where I could understand the Java and Solaris.
Below is the Java information which am able to pull from the server.
bash-3.00# java -version
java version "1.5.0_30"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0_30-b03)
Java HotSpot(TM) Server VM (build 1.5.0_30-b03, mixed mode)
bash-3.00# uname -a
SunOS ssino07 5.10 Generic_144488-17 sun4v sparc SUNW,SPARC-Enterprise-T5220
bash-3.00# showrev
Hostname: sxxx
Hostid: 85594e34
Release: 5.10
Kernel architecture: sun4v
Application architecture: sparc
Hardware provider: Sun_Microsystems
Domain:
Kernel version: SunOS 5.10 Generic_144488-17
Also would like to share one error, which actually made to open this thread on Solaris Form. Its related to DSEE installation [already opened a thread there], when we copying the one LDAP configuration settings from one server to another server, we got a schema error. Could you guide me specific to Java here.
Failed: Error updating the server xxxx:389. The error is javax.naming.NameAlreadyBoundException: mgrpRFC822MailMember"
Many thanks in advance,

Your default system java doesn't matter, ie Solaris has a version of java linked to /usr/bin/java which may link to the same version that DSEE is using or not, ie you can have multiple versions of java on your system. DSEE and the rest of the JES products have their own Java installation linked to a location under /usr/jdk/entsys-j2se
As for your second question, if the schema is different between two servers, then migrating data between them will give you schema violations. In your specific case, have you ever installed any versions of the JES Messaging Server? Some older versions had a conflicting OID in the schema. A quick fix would be just copy the S99user.ldif from the working server to the other server.

Req: Checkpointing Disks for Solaris Zones

Is there a way using Solaris Zones to checkpoint a disk? I would like to be able to carry out a series of experiments on a test system and start from an identical configuration each time. VMWare calls this capability "Disk checkpointing," and Solaris Zones appears to somewhat resemble VMWare.

Hi,
since the SCOM Agent is not 'cluster aware' you probably have no other choice than restarting the agent and wait for the next discovery cycle of the solaris logical disks. You can speed this up by manually override the discovery interval for that specific
server. After that the disk is not longer monitored.
If you have the time and knowledge you could set up a custom monitoring for clustered filesystems and disable the standard monitoring for that filesystems. But I think thats quite time-consuming. We have the same issues here with our Solaris and Linux clustered/shared
filesystems but we still live with the workaround of restarting the agent.

Hi,

@Mohit: SAP wouldn't proceed till create database if Oracle software was not installed. thanks for the response.
@Markus: Thanks I agree with you, but I have doubt in this area. Isn't it like project.max-shm-memory was new parameter we need to set in local zone rather using shmsys:shminfo_shmmax in /etc/system. Do we need to still maintain this parameter in /etc/system in global zone.
As per SUN doc below parameter was obsolete from Solaris 10.
The following parameters are obsolete.
■ shmsys:shminfo_shmmni
■ shmsys:shminfo_shmmax
As per your suggestion, do we need to set below parameters in that case, please clarify.

SAP Java Gui in Solaris 10 x86.

Who run the Java Gui in Solaris 10 x86?
After I installed Java Gui in Solaris 10 x86 and run guilogon, when I connect the server I created, I got the error message:
Attempt to load shared library /opt/SAPClients/SAPGui7.00/binlibJPlatin.so failed.
The library file exists, so either the program
don't has the privileges to access the library
or the library is not loadable by the shared object loader
Technical information:
Error location: GuiJniLoader.loadPlatinLibrary()
Error message: /opt/SAPClients/SAPGUI7.00/bin/libJPlation.so:ld.so.1:java:fatal:/opt/SAPClients/SAPGUI7.00/bin/libJPlatin.so:wrong ELF data format:ELFDATA2MSB
After I confirm the dialog, another error message appears:
JniAgiLibAdaptor.<init>: Cannot load JNI library.
I checked the supported OS, it doesn't contains Solaris 10 X86, but I think Solaris 10 was open source, just like linux, why doesn't SAP Java Gui support Solaris 10 X86? And now , how can I solve this problem?

What you see is what happens when the Java runtime running on Solaris 10 x86 tries to load a library which is compiled for SPARC.
Because of the native parts in SAP GUI for Java, compilations and installers are required for each OS - HW combination.
The supported platforms can be seen in SAP note 954572. For Solaris only SPARC is currently supported.
Because of the effort needed for compiling, testing, support etc. it is required to focus on OS - HW combinations widely used on desktop machines and Solaris 10 on x86 currently does not seem to be one of those.

Are Solaris Zones approved for SAP production environments?

All,
I am trying to find an official document from SAP that confirms that Solaris Zones are approved for use in SAP NW production environments. I checked the product availability matrix but it does not address Containers or Zones.
Thanks,
Guenther

They don't state it explicitly because you can use it. I comes with the operating system and if they would deny that, there would a be a note stating that explicitly.
On top of that, SAP would not create notes how to install and configure a zone if it wouldn't be supported
We run many instances under zones (production, test, sandbox) and make use of ZFS heavily and it works like a charm.

SSO between SAP EP and JAVA app on WebSphere Application Server 5.1

Hi. I have 2 questions.
I am implementing SAP EP6 and need to display content from a WebSphere JAVA application inside the portal. The application is currently running on WAS 5.1.
1. Does anyone have any sample code or documentation regarding how to pass the SAP logon ticket to WebSphere JAVA application to accomplish SSO when inside the portal?
2. Does anyone have any sample code or documentation regarding how to pass the SAP logon ticket to WebSphere JAVA application to accomplish SSO when outside the SAP EP, but still within the same IE browser window where the SAP logon ticket exists?
Thanks for any feedback you could provide.

Hello Kevin,
please look here: https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.km.cm.docs/library/nw/ibm/how to set up sso between sap enterprise portal and ibm websphere portal using tai.pdf
Regarding your second questions: as long as you did not log off from SAP EP your browser hosts the SAP Logon Ticket cookie (within its timeframe of validity which is typically a couple of hours). So if you access a non SAP application that accepts SAP logon ticket with your browser, you're authenticated.
Please note that the cookie based authentication only works withing the same DNS domain. So if your SAP EP is configured to issues the SAP logon ticket to "company.com" then your browser sends it only to servers in that domain.
