SICF service not migrated

Hi Gurus.
Earlier when we created an application, SICF node was created and when we migrated it, it was migrated correctly.
Now something strange is happening. Node is created, it is captured in the TR also. But when we migrate it to UAT environment, the SICF node is not there.
We capture it again in another TR and send it over, then it is okay.
What can be the reason for SICF node to disappear, or not to be migrated even though it is in TR?
Thanks in adv.

SICF Service not available in Production

Hi Experts,
I have created a Webdynpro application and I have moved it to quality and Production systems respectivelly.
In development and quality system it is working fine, but the same application in production gives a runtime error. It is showing SICF service is not available.
I have checked in SICF Tcode, but the service for the particular Webdynpro application is not available.
How can I resolve this issue.
Thanks,
Pradeep

MI server SICF services not working

Dear All,
I installed a MI 7.0 server, I am able to logon to the ABAP stack without any hassles.But, when I test any services in SICF, it throws a page cannot be displayed. All the services are active. I tried de-activating and re-activated them, but still no good.
Any pointers would be appreciated.
Cheers!

Not sure why HTTP service is redirected to Java port. Actually there is not log info. recorded in java default trace even Java is running.
When I set trace level = 1(default), no info in dev_icm. When I set trace level = 3, got long log file in dev_icm but no clue for HTTP 404 error.
I noticed note 1292397 which is similar but it does not solve our problem.

Any suggestion?

Hi,
I don't really understand your HA configuration. Is this a 2 nodes cluster ? If yes why is there only one alias.
I use a SAP R/3 4.7 system running on a Windows 2003 MSCS cluster.
We have 2 DNS aliases for it : one for the SAP CI and one for the Oracle database.
Each of these 2 DNS aliases has its own virtual IP address.
example : sapalias.domain.xx for SAP CI
dbalias.domain.xx for oracle DB
The icm/host_name_full parameter is set to sapalias.domain.xx
To be able to use BSP applications, we have to use the FQDN in the URL.
Like : http://sapalias.domain.xx:port/sap/bc/bsp/sap/z_mybsp
On a dual stack system, usually you use the ABAP HTTP port in all URLs and it is the job of the ICM to direct the processing to the abap stack (all URLs beginning with /sap) or to the java stack (all other URLs).

Session is not Migrated when I use HttpSessionActivationListener .

Hi all,
I studied about HttpSessionActivation Listener and in order understand it fully I created a simple program . I studied that the listener will be invoked whenever session attribute is migrated from one JVM to another .
The following was what I did to understand HttpSessionActivationListener
Created two instances of Tomcat in a single box.(Actually two services)
Configured Apache Http Server to point the two instances (Load balancing and fail over) [Using this link|http://thought-bytes.blogspot.com/2007/03/how-to-load-balance-tomcat-55-with.html]
Created a small web application and deployed in two servers

}Whenever I stop one instance(say "Tomcat instance 1") I'm getting a message "Session Will Passivated "(which is what I have in overridden sessionWillPassivate method)
I'm also getting "Session Did Activated" message (overridden in sessionDidActivated method) whenever I start the same instance(say "Tomcat instance 1").
What I expected
============
After stopping the Tomcat instance (say "Tomcat instance 1") I reloaded the same page expecting this time it will be served by another Tomcat instance(say "Tomcat Instance 2" and I will get "SessionDidActivated" message from "Tomcat instance 2" but it didn't worked as I expected instead the page is served by another Tomcat instance("Tomcat instance 2") but the session is not migrated and I'm not getting "SessionDidActivated" in the new Tomcat instance.
I also created a new Servlet named as (Servlet3) and modified SessionExample.java to this .so that It contains button and when it clicked it will hit a new Servlet(Servlet 3) but it also doesn't help.
I'm trying this in a single physical machine with two tomcat instance configured with Apache Http Server .
Is anything I'm missing ?
Please clarify me why the session is not migrated .
Thanks in advance

Hi ejp,
One more question I have . Today I tried to find out why the listener class is not invoked(I doesn't get "SessionDidActivated" and "SessionWillPassivate" sysouts from listener class) and found that when I enable clustering in Tomcat it's doesn't works(even though session migrates) and when I switch back to normal mode it does work .
Following is the fragment I uncomment to enable clustering
Am just curious to know why it happens like this .
Can you please clarify me ?

Is there a way to update an external dictionary for services without migrating the services

Is there a way to update an external dictionary for services without migrating the services
Is there a way to update a common external dictionary used by many services without migrating each and every service that uses the dictionary. I have updated the table in the database and the external dictionary in our Development Environment. The external dictionary is used by many services. When I migrate the changed service to TEST/STAGE/PROD environments (NOTE: the table has been updated in the TEST/STAGE/PROD Databases), only the changed service is having the external dictionary updated. All other services that use the same external dictionary are NOT updated. I have the following questions
Is it possible to migrate dictionaries so that all the services which are using that dictionary are updated?
If the first one is not possible, Is there any other way to update the external dictionary without migrating all the services that use dictionary?

dont think so but I could be wrong
as it were I didn't like the build in audio so I connected some external logictech 2.1 speakers but there
are times when I use headset so I bought this one
or any minijack splitter will work too so I have 2 things connected to the headset port works just fine

Hi,
Detail: Cannot reach external Application Server on localhost:51000
51000 is the port when the j2ee engine runs. As you dont have java stack am afraid this would not work.

Exchange 2013 CU5 fresh install suffering issues with services not starting and coexistence with 2007

Hi everyone,
Hope you can help me out on a couple of issues I've been experiencing during the initial stages of a project to upgrade an on premise Exchange 2007 to 2013.
On Monday last week I installed the first Exchange 2013 server into the network after a few weeks of careful planning, information gathering and remediation of our current Exchange 2007 environment and associated systems.
The server itself has been having some issues from the word go, some of which I've resolved but none that are show stoppers but I want to get them resolved before building more servers and setting up the planned 2 x 2 node DAG's
The main problems are as follows:
There's usually one service that does not start following an OS restart and it's not always the same service. So far I've seen the following not start: DAG Management, Migration Workflow, Anti-spam Update, Unified Messaging, UM Call Router, Transport
Service.
The critical system event log entries are complaining of timeouts when the services are starting up but I can't imagine that the servers boot time is too long... It's a 2 vCPU/12Gb vRAM VM, Windows 2012 R2
I receive an error in the Event Log regarding RPC over HTTP Proxy
to one of the 2007 CAS servers (not our primary one). The first error was because the Windows Component was missing but since installing it, disabling Outlook Anywhere, reenabling it, restarting the server, I now have a new error which is shown further down
this post
The Exchange 2013 server install is pretty default, CAS/MBX roles and some basic configuration performed such as new DNS entries, Public SSL certs installed and assigned, URL's updates, SCP updated. I have review and resolved some errors from the event logs
for over chatty warnings about disk space (the warning is that we have loads of space...)
This is a brief outline of the environment:
Exchange 2007 SP3 RU13
UK - Two physical locations in a stretch LAN (100Mb WAN)
4 x CCR Cluster Mailbox Servers in two separate CCR Clusters
Cluster 1 - Windows 2003 R2: One physical, one virtual server - don't ask, legacy install and I know the virtual is not a supported configuration.
Cluster 2 - Windows 2008 R2: Two virtuals - New cluster built following a 4 day failure of Cluster 1. The aim was to move to supported config and decommission cluster 1.
Note: Migration of Cluster 1 to Cluster 2 was halted as 2013 was so close it seemed pointless to continue the migration and instead migrate both Clusters to 2013 once in production.
2 x Virtual Windows 2003 R2 - Hub Transport Servers
2 x Virtual Windows 2003 R2 - Client Access Servers
1 x Virtual Windows 2003 R2 - Unified Messaging Server
1 x Virtual Windows 2003 R2 - Edge Transport Server (DMZ)
US - One physical location
1 x Physical Windows 2008 R2 - Mailbox, Client Access, Hub Transport Server
Exchange 2013 CU5
UK - Installed into same site along side Exchange 2007 servers
1 x Virtual Windows 2012 R2 - Mailbox, Client Access Server

Hi Off2work,
I've gone through the article and the Get-OutlookAnywhere commandlet looks fine (especially when compared with our working CAS).
Having looked through IIS I have spotted two additional misconfigurations with a missing setting to require SSL on the RPC folder and also the .NET version was not set.
I've now set those to Require SSL and .NET 2.0.5072 however this has made no difference following restarted of both 2007 CAS and 2013 servers.
I could potentially reinstall the CAS server or additionally decommission it as we have two of them and the other is not causing any errors with the 2013 server. This broken CAS server doesn't even have DNS records (except it's own hostname) or firewall
rules pointing to it, nor does it have any active client connections if I check with a quick netstat -a
As for UM, it's next on my list following some client/server connectivity testing so I have not yet assigned the SSL to the services or setup the dial plans, etc.
The services do start most of the time, but others then don't so it's not a consistent issue with just this service. On my current boot, the DAG Management service failed to start, but again I don't have a DAG implemented yet.
I will see if UM drops out of that list once I've configured it shortly
Thanks for taking the time to respond (and that goes to DareDevil too)

Itunes will not install..windows INSTALLER service not available.windows 7

I am trying to find a fix for this...just bought a new computer with windows 7, all updates have been performed. Itunes will not install...it just stops and says "windows installer service not available" Can't find a stand alone downloadable version of installer 5.0 which is what comes with 7 from the research I have done. I have the newest version of itunes saved on desktop, tried running it from desktop, tried running as admin, tried several other ideas that I found on here and Microsoft..but nothing is working. Any advice?
Message was edited by: ehindahl

Same error message "This version is for a 32 bit computer, yours is a 64 bit!"
Doublechecking ... by any chance did you migrate a 32-bit version of the iTunes, Apple Mobile Device Support and Bonjour programs to the 64-bit machine from a 32-bit machine using the PC Mover utility?
(Your symptoms are consistent with that ... the installer service throws the message when trying to uninstall the 32-bit itunes and related 32-bit componentry prior to installing the new 64-bit versions.)

Office 2010 User Settings NOT Migrated After Uninstall-Upgrade to 2013

Greetings,
We are in the final stages of preparing for an enterprise rollout of Office 2013, upgrading our user base from Office 2010. When we deployed Office 2010, we used the Office scrubber tool to remove Office 2003 and install Office 2010. Employing this same
technique, which is
fully documented by Microsoft as the recommended approach, the user settings from Office 2010 do not migrate to Office 2013. For example, the default save paths. If you set this to say, "C:\Temp", in Office 2010, that path will be changed
after upgrading to 2013. There are other settings impacted as well and hoping that someone has seen this or knows what might be going on. The method we've used during pilot is an in-place upgrade from 2010 to 2013 and that will retain settings but we also
see cases where the upgrade isn't clean and components of Office 2010 can be left behind. It is critical to a successful deployment that the uninstall-upgrade approach works flawlessly.
Thanks,
Doug

Hi Jori,
There are three types of permissions in the Manage User Permissions in User Profile Service Application(UPS): Create Personal Site, Follow People and Edit Profile and Use Tags and Notes.
If all the three permissions have been revoked from the user, then the user will not existed in the Manage User Permissions in UPS.
So you don’t need to anything else to remove the users from Mange User Permission in UPS after revoking all the permissions from the user.
As for the error when accessing Mange User Permissions in UPS, I recommend to restart the User Profile Service and add the user account to the Administrators of the User Profile Service Application.
In Central Administration, highlight the User Profile Service Application and then click Administrators in the ribbon.
If above cannot work, please provide more error message for the correlation ID in ULS log for further research.
For SharePoint 2013, by default, ULS log is at C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\15\LOGS.
Best regards.

Load Balancing in SICF Service

Hi,
I have set Up Load Balancing for a Logon Group in the SICF service.
In transacion SMMS, the parameter ms_Service_port_xx is maintained for HTTP for each server in the landscape.
Is this all I have to do for Load Balancing or there is any additional settings ?
Also, how to use the Session Timeout parameter in the SICF service (Just below Load Balancing )
Thanks
Anand

Hello,
The Logon group in SICF does not do any load balancing by itself.
HTTP Load balancing is the job of the SAP web dispatcher which connects with HTTP to the message server to get the information about application servers and logon groups.
You can also use directly the message server bu it is a bad solution because it's not really load balancing but merely redirects. A browser shortcut would redirect always to the same application server.

Olivier

SICF Services - All active services and audit trail

We have upgraded one of our client environment from 4.7 to ECC 6.0 - Ehp4 and activated SICF services for Portal applications. We are using ESS, MSS, ECM and HR Admin for Portal and during setup we activated several services.
I was wondering if their is any way to find out all activated services and we can audit who activated all services from backend from ERP 6.0.
Thanks,
Miral.

As per SAP "Note 1555208 - ICF services become inactive after upgrade or SP update" we can find the list of active services along with path using the report RS_ICF_SERV_ADMIN_TASKS
SA38 --> RS_ICF_SERV_ADMIN_TASKS --> Export of Active Services into CSV file

Required SICF services in EBP

Hello experts,
I would like to know which SICF services are <u><b>required</b></u> in EBP. For security reasons, we can't activate entire trees, and I couldn't find any documentation on this (I only found it for SUS).
We are using SRM 5.0 (with SRM Server 5.5), using Plan-Driven Procurement with Plant Maintenance scenario (including SRM-MDM catalog and attachments)
Thanks for your valuable information.

SICF Services

I wonder if it is a good practice to leave all SICF services activated if we are using GRC / any other BSP enabled component ?
If not, what can possibly be the harm of keeping all services on ?
Thanks,

You should also consider that the service tree and nodes are hierarchical and cascade the authentication credentials.
Only activate those you need.
If a solution suggests activating everything then report it to SAP or to secure at sap dot com (security response team for internal security problems).
Cheers,
Julius
