SAP Solutions Forum Category

Hi CRM SDNers,
We opened up a SAP Solutions forum category and think that this is a better home for this forum, so we moved it here.
Hope you like it, Mark.

Hi Marc, great new ranking of the threads. Thanks to you and Craig, Tiest.

Suggestion: Combining SD segments in Forum - SAP Solutions

HI,
It is recommended to combine the SD segment in the Forum Area - SAP Solution Section, as it is observed that same query is being posted in multiple SD segment. The segment which I am refering are as under, which should actually come under common headind which is Sales and Distribution:
ERP - Sales and Distribution (SD) General
ERP SD Billing
ERP SD Sales
This will benefit by reducing the number of repititive blogs and having solution with better approach.
Regards,
Rajesh Banka

Hi Rajesh,
I think we started it initially as one common head Sales and Distribution. The division was made I think to better segregate the flood questions into different pools of Order/Delivery/Billing related. I feel the idea behind this is good.
But rightly, as you said there may be repitition of a question into these sections which I think with rules of engagement or educating the people who do it can bring it down.
Not sure if we have a system that can track for a given user id if exactly the same is being posted again. Perhaps something which can work like a filter and say stop "Cant repeat the thread".
This will make the poster of the question also to think what type question he is askig and into which category he has to post, because only then he can get the correct answer.
But for viewing purpose, may be we can have a common link that combines all the questions under one roof so that the contributor need not go to different sections to see if he can answer them.

SAP Solutions StackExchange Q&A Site

At the risk of being labeled a spammer and being excommunicated from SDN, I am posting an appeal here which I posted on the Suggestions forum - you could construe this as being Coffee talk anyway :
I have created a proposal on StackExchange for a Q&A site for SAP solutions.
However, the proposal was flagged as a duplicate by the submitters of another proposal for Enterprise. The submitters of that proposal, however, lump together SAP with ERP, CRM, HR etc, as if SAP were merely another category of enterprise software, clearly demonstrating a lack of knowledge about what SAP is.
If you support the idea of a StackExchange Q&A site for SAP Solutions, please follow the proposal and add your comments at the following URL: http://area51.stackexchange.com/proposals/31043/sap-solutions
Also, please raise your voice in this discussion as well: http://discuss.area51.stackexchange.com/questions/1460/q-a-on-sap-warrants-a-site-on-its-own

Hi Martin, that's a great idea; I've often wished this already existed as I'm a fan of the StackExchange communities myself. I see I'm too late for your proposal as it's been closed, but a newer one is still open and needs support. Since your question is still showing up quite high on a Google search I thought it was worth posting a reply to your old question pointing people to the newer request:

SAP Solution Manager Certification

Hi there!
I would like to give Certification exam in SAP Solution Manager 4.0.
Pertaining to this could anybody share the related PDF Files.
Regards,
Suresh

Hello,
I've tried to get to some Sample Questions here on Forum, but I couldn't get any.
I passed an exam on 14.11.2006 and I suggest to you to use course materials as suggested by SAP (SMI310). That is sufficient to pass the certificate. All the answers are there.
My general opinion: not easyYou have to be pretty much concentrated as there were questions put in negative expressions.You have to be really, really carefull.
They are taking a lot of details on subjects like Type of projects (Template projects, Roll out implementations, customer satisfaction) including its Roadmaps. (e.g. roll-out project phases and its content.)
I only saw 3 or 4 questions familiar to me (from Test your knowledge, SMI310 book), others were really related to course materials but spoken in their own words
If you have any questions, dont hesitate to contact me.
Good luck to you and best regards.

Implementierung des SAP Solution Managers 4.0 SR2 über SAP Netweaver 2004s

Hallo Leute,
finde es gut das man hier in forum sich gegenseitig helfen kann.
Bräuchte unbedingt ein Installations Leitfaden für die Implementierung des SAP Solution Managers 4.0 SR2 über SAP Netweaver 2004s
würde mich auf eure Antworten und Lösungsvorschläge freuen.
MfG
Ali

Hi,
For how long the installation process has been running. Check the following.
1. The virtual memory page size that you have assigned.
2. The hard disk free space.
3. The Virtual memory should be optimized size, should not be larger than the free space available.
These are performance optimization settings.
I guess the installation would take around ten hours, I am not sure.
But one thing is sure <b>SAP</b> is not that bad to get aborted abruptly.
Keep Patience while installing. Before that take care that your system satisfies, requirements.
Hope I was clear. Feel free to get back, incase you face any problem.
--Thanks and Regards,
Ragu

So where is the forum category for bt web hosting ...

Where is the forum category for bt web hosting questions?

Thanks Mazert
The reason I ask this is because BT Retail Businesshave their own help and support channels which are aimed for their business customers.
This forum here is for BT Retail residential customers, and therefore the support and knowledge about the BT business webhosting service and domain services are not on this forum.
To go to the BT Retail Buisness Website hosting & domains forum go to: https://business.forums.bt.com/t5/Website-hosting-domains/bd-p/Webhosting

SAP Solution failing

We heard that [SAP solutions are excellent (in fact best) for manufacturing industry |http://www.infoverto.com/2010/05/manufacturing-erp-software-options.html]and these views were echoed by out internal leaders but now when we were evaluating the SAP solution generally against some of our niche requirements - we are a furniture manufacturig company - we found that there are a lot of gaps found in standard solution offered by SAP. Now, some of the consultants that we hired, are suggesting to go for consona or sage instead for furniture manufacturing. Since this forum has excellent SAP experts, we need to know whether it is a good idea of going with SAP or not. Sorry, I can not share the niche requirements in this forum as they are our USP.

Hi,
I hope this path will helpfull to you.

Edited by: pranav kumar on Sep 7, 2009 2:19 PM

>>The license is expired.should i reinstall the license or update the license.plz do the needful
This is a forum. We can only suggest you but this doesnot sounds good "plz do the needful"
You need to install a new license. Go to Service marketplace and apply a new license for your system and when you will receive a new license as a text file, then install the license via SLICENSE

Need for new forum/category

Considering that this forum/category (HCM Payroll Germany, Austria & Switzerland (DACH)) has been created more than a month ago and that not a single thread has been posted in it, and considering that the forum/category "ERP HCM (HR)" often sees more than 60 threads with postings per day,
could you please consider to create at least one or two new forum/category to help sub-divide the ERP HCM (HR).
Possibly ERP HCM - Payroll and ERP HCM - Time Management (and rename the other one ERP HCM - HR) ?
Remi
i have moved the thread from (HCM Payroll Germany, Austria & Switzerland (DACH) to suggestion and comments forum for better responses from sCN
Edited by: Sikindar on Oct 25, 2010 12:50 PM

And I have tried to post something in the "Idea Place", both from work and from home, and keep getting problems logging on, even when I'm already logged-in through the SAP Community Network.
Since my Passport has expired, I'm trying to get a new one from Marketplace, but i couldn't find the link yesterday.
As I have mentioned before, I believe at least one new thread is required due to the daily volume of postings.
I had initially posted in the "HCM Payroll Germany, Austria & Switzerland (DACH)" thread, then tried to post it in the "ERP HCM (HR)", and I will try to post it again in the "Idea Place" when possible.
While in the "Idea Place", I'll have to ask why the forum "SAP ERP HCM - Payroll North America" mentions that it is for SAP, ERP and HCM, while none of the others mention SAP, and some like the new "HCM Payroll Germany, Austria & Switzerland (DACH)" don't include ERP in their description.

Virtualization for SAP solutions

Hi all,
as i recently wrote a blog about 'Virtualization and enterprise SOA' and as we will have many virtualization related activities in 2007 i think it's a good idea to start a thread in this forum for general discussion about virtualization and its utilization in SAP landscapes.
As many of you know SAP is offering application virtualization capabilities in SAP NetWeaver with Adaptive Computing. This was introduced in at SAPPHIRE 2004.
Meanwhile virtualization concepts, technologies and products cover a much broader part of an SAP landscape, starting at network virtualization and going up to desktop virtualization. I am sure storage virtualization with SAN or NAS is almost a standard IT scenario, but some of the newer virtualization technologies are in their early stages first.
How are you using virtualization technologies today, and which concepts/products/... do you consider to be most important for your environment ?
Best regards
Roland

Hi Kwee,
my name is Nils and I am topic owner of the virtualization topic within SAP Consulting. You ask:
1. How will SAP system maintenance and administration be affected now that we have tools in VM that can hanlde copying, backup and recovery?
Generally spoken, SAP should react on this when it comes to cloning instances. Change of an SID still is not supported, so I would expect the SAP Virtualization Lab to provide a solution for this demand asap.
In the VMware context, our Consulting team developped an approach that lets you run SAPINST in a silent mode so that no user interaction is needed any more for installing application servers, central instances and so on. You create a master template for sapinst, and this template can then be modified script-based to deploy your dialog instances in background. Siemens implemented our solution as well as MAN Diesel in Kopenhagen
If you have customers who deal with this topic, ask them to order me for an implementation. Backup and recovery should still be performed on database or storage level (Netapp). If you ask the question more precisely, I will give you a more detailed answer.
2. What about SAP high availability and disaster recovery scenarios? How useful is clustering now that we have tools in VM that can offer an alternative solution?
Clustering still remains one of the operational keys. VMWare can never fully replace a Cluster although the fancy VMWare slides would like to make us thinking so. When it comes to disaster recovery, VMWare HA is a very fancy solution. But not every customer has the infrastructure and the money to implement VMWare HA. Also from a performance point of view, Clustering still stays a valid approach. Or did you ever try a HA-setup for a 8 TB solution with VMWare? A valid alternative for Clustering can be Adaptive Computing which gives you an enhanced availability (no high availability) bit downtimes of customer sometimes allow this and it is more stable than most cluster solutions around. You should also keep your eyes on Windows Server 2008! I spoke to Microsoft this week, and they put live-migration of virtual machines on their hot topic list again (after it was removed). Beginning of 2009, Windows Server will be able to migrate virtual machines in a live manner and also provide HA functionality for virtual machines. VMWare is still a little bit ahead of MS, but I saw the newest tools from MS, and this advantage is shrinking.
3. How will hardware sizing be handled for SAP upgrades and rollout of new functions in a VM architecture?
From a sizing perspecive, calculate an overhead of 20% for your hardware to be on the safe side. Sizing is a task to be done by the customer together with the hardware vendor. He needs to tell the vendor that he wants to operate SAP in a virtualized environment. The hard limit for this is the IO based on your approach how to host the virtual systems (VMFS based with central FC storage or container- based). The hard limit is 6000 SAPs at the moment, for larger implementations, a lot of money has to be spent, technically, more then 18.000 SAPs are possible (but do not make sense).
4. How can performance be optimized in a VM environment?
SAP-Performance? IO-Performance? There are some guidelines when it comes to the setup of virtual machines with SAP. You can find them here:
http://www.vmware.com/partners/alliances/technology/sap-whitepapers.html
Best Practice Guidelines for SAP Solutions on VMware® Infrastructure
Is there a SAP training that specifically deals with such topics?
No, but if you can take care on an IO, I could come over and teach you and your collegues about those topics. I developped a workshop I present to customers (one-day) about all of those topics mentioned here.
Best regards,
Nils, Technical Solution Architect, SAP Consulting
