  • Project management in SAP Solution Manager (SOLAR_PROJECT_ADMIN and RMMAIN)

    Please help me to understand this better u2013 whether this is a gap in the functionality of the SolMan, whether I expect too much, whether it is expected to work in a different way.
    In transaction SOLAR_PROJECT_ADMIN one can create a project.
    In transaction RMMAIN one can create a roadmap u2013 this is a more or less detailed project plan that can even be exported to MS Project. Via RMDEF and RMAUTH it is possible to create a custom specific roadmap. This specific roadmap can then be assigned via SOLAR_PROJECT_ADMIN and RMMAIN to the newly created project.
    However, it is not possible to modify the roadmap once assigned in SOLAR_PROJECT_ADMIN and created in RMMAIN.
    This means, as a consequence, that it is not possible to use the Solution Manager as the one and only project management tool.
    To specify this further. Usually, in a project, once you have created the roadmap and the overall framework you add all the detailed steps, and all single tasks that are required. As this is not possible in SolMan one needs to use other tools (MS Project) for this. But on the other side the SolMan project plan and roadmap has to be updated frequently to be able to keep track of the progress. So this ends in double work. Manual effort is required to keep this consistent. And it also hardly makes sense to create a new roadmap just to add these small details. With all this in mind itu2019s hard to convince our customers that the SolMan is really a that big benefit for implementation or upgrade projects.
    - have I overseen something?
    - has SAP designed this in a different way?
    - or does SAP oversee this need?
    Many thanks & best regards,

    Hi
    1) Is deleting older documents is definitely going to improve response time of searching. You said 'yes' but just wanted to double sure.
    Yes
    2) This program deletes all unsed and de-linked document. I can understand 'De-linked' but not 'Unused'
    i meant the samething
    3) Deleting documents based on user id is big problem. We have almost 800 Users in SolMan, who has used this project form last 5+ years. So all these 800 users have to go into multiple selection of user id
    Try giving *
    4) I tried this on our sandbox (SP19 Level) which has shown all unused documents which can be deleted. But this deletion has to be done one-by-one. In our production, if we have 10K+ documents, i assume almost thousand or more will be residing as de-linked in KW
    Try giving *
    5) Any Documentation available on this program.
    Learnt by experience but you can check some sapnotes below
    Note 1124579 - Using SOLMAN_UNUSED_DOCUMENTS to delete unused documents
    Note 1377997 - SOLMAN_UNUSED_DOCUMENTS: No deletion conf. for each doc.
    Hope above clarifies

  • SAP Solution Manager and SAP Production Server on Single Host

    We are rolling out our new infrastructure using high end Solaris Servers that have plenty of grunt.
    I am looking at running SAP Solution Manager 7 and SAP Netweaver 6 on the same HOST using two Oracle databases.
    We will use 10g and have 2 separate  transport volumes for transports. The Development and test environments will be very similar.
    Appreciate any advise or thoughts. We are not looking at virtualising this particular environment.

    Technically you can do that - yes. I could also imagine in installing the ERP on the bare metal and the SolMan in a zone, together with a processor set you can limit resource usage and you´re totally isolated from your production environment and will so make sure that SolMan is not stealing necessary resources from your production environment.

  • Using TREX in SAP Solution Manager

    Dear all,
    I want to setup TREX for document search purpose in my SAP Solution manager system.
    There is already TREX installed on another system, & I have setup the connection between solution manager & TREX.
    My question is , in order to use TREX for document search , I need to connect solution manager to Knowledge warehouse?
    is this true?
    why can't we use TREX to search document in SAP Solution manager, BUT to use functions of SAP Knowledge Warehouse 6.0 or SAP Knowledge Provider, to store documents?
    and anyone can show me more detail documentation about the configuration?
    thank you very much to share!
    kelly

    Hi Kelly,
    You can have a look into the SAP Solution Manager system and there you can call transaction SPRO. You find information for TREX installation with the path:
    Solution Manager Implementation Guide ->SAP Solution Manager -> Configuration -> Cross Scenario Settings -> TREX Setup

  • BPC (Outlooksoft) and SAP Solution Manager

    Has anyone seen the SAP Solution Manager used to rollout and/or upgrade Outlooksoft (now called BPC - Business Planning and Consolidation)?
    I am trying to assess the usefulness of this tool in an implementation where the only SAP module the company has is Outlooksoft (BPC), so all thoughts are appreciated.
    Best regards,

  • Powerbuilder and SAP Solution Manager

    Hi there,
    I think my question is not clear
    I already installed Solman and its running. And we used the default name for the MSSQL Instance.
    My question is:  During the installation of SAP ECC 5.0. this means:
    1) Installation of MSSQL Instance
    2) Installation of ECC 5.0 Software
    by the installation of the MSQL Instance I get the question if I want to use default name for the DB instance (which is not possible because its already used for DB instance for Solman instance) or another SID.
    And my question: Is it ok to use another SID? (Think that DB name and SAPSID should be the same for SAP).
    if yes, why its saying that SAP recommend default? Does this will make me problem with SAP later?
    This is what is making me afraid and that why I am trying to get a help to be sure that this is possible and will not make any problems for SAP.
    I hope its clear now
    Best regards

  • Adding existing RWD uPerform documents using SAP Solution Manager Adapter?

    Note# 1468552
    Cannot add existing RWD uPerform documents using the SAP Solution Manager Adapter.
    Currently, a user can only create a new document with the Solution Manager Adapter; there is no
    ability to add existing uPerform documents that have already been created.
    RWD has submitted an enhancement to SAP requesting this functionality.
    Hi All,
    Has there has been any update on the functionality to add existing RWD uPerform documents to Solution Manager? I have found a note from 2010 stating that this functionality has been submitted as a enhancement. My question is, has this feature been implemented yet? If not, does anyone have any suggested work-arounds for this issue?
    Thanks in advance!

    Hi Stephanie,
    I can't find much information on this topic.
    You could create a message in component SV-SMG-SPA.

    Hi,
    Solution Manger is a central platform for all solutions.
    Its a Support hub and gateway between SAP serivce market and the customer.
    It helps in providibg tools, content, procedures,services to implement and operate the SAP solutions.
    It helps in improving the IT services for a business and reduce the Downtimes to reduce the production loss.
    It also helps in facing and solving technical risks.
    Initially to upgrade the SAP related softwares Solution manager was not in need, but in the Netweaver level to upgrade Solution manager is a must decided but SAP at Germany.
    So in a landscape Solution manager is also installed in a separate system and oneside connected to servicemarket and otherside to the landscape at your place.
    Its mostly related to Basis Part of SAP.
    I think this would give you an idea of what is SolMan.
    Reward if useful.

  • Install SAP Solution Manager with DEV instance in the same server (MCOD)

    Hello, i would like to install SAP Solutions Manager together with DEV ECC 6.0 in the same host, DEV is currently installed and working fine.
    I followed note 551915 to convert MS-SQL 2005 to MCOD (change of schema from dbo to dev) and worked fine. But when i am installing the SolMan through the sapinst i don´t see the option MCOD
    The only option i am confussed is
    MS SQL Server
    Database reuse  o - New Database (DBSID = SAPSID)
                             o - Use Existing Database
                                    Database ID (DBSID)
    Witch option should i choose to perform a MCOD installation? new db or use existing db (DEV)?
    Kind Regards

    Hi Merchan, if you want to use MCOD you need to select the option: o - Use Existing Database
    Database ID (DBSID) .

  • Solution Manager Installation Error "SAP SOLUTION MANAGER 7.0 EHP 1"

    I am new to SAP and currently trying to install SOLMAN 7.0 EHP 1 on Windows Server 2008 R2. I have read the documentation also. For JDK I have used "j2sdkfb-1_4_2_24-rev-b06-windows-amd64.exe" which looks to be working fine.
    The installation process runs fine until it hits "Start Instance" the message on the bottom says "Starting instance xxx/DVEBMGSOO" (where xxx is my sid) and then its times out after 10 minute. After timing out I get the following error on the window.
    An error occurred while processing option SAP Solution Manager 7.0 EhP1 > SAP Systems > Oracle > Central System > Central System( Last error reported by the step: ABAP processes of instance ORC/DVEBMGS00 ABAP: UNKNOWN did not start after 10:00 minutes. Giving up.). You can now:
    Choose Retry to repeat the current step.
    Choose Log Files to get more information about the error.
    Stop the option and continue with it later.
    Log files are written to C:\Program Files/sapinst_instdir/SOLMAN/SYSTEM/ORA/CENTRAL/AS.
    Though the installation steps are not fully completed but I do see SAP management Console and when I open it I see two process running "msg_server.exe" & "igswd.exe" The process dispwork.EXE starts in the beginning and then stops and stays stopped. I tried restarting all the process again but only tow of them starts and the process "dispwork.EXE" starts but then stops again. I also did a NEW installation considering a file could have been corrupted or something else but the installation process stops and the same place. I am sure ppl have installed SOLMAN on windows 2008 R2 and this error seems common to me. Please assist. Any tips would be nice.

    Hi,
    Please check the below
    1) ip/host entries should be in /etc/hosts
    2) patch the latest kernel for 2008 R2
    and re run installation
