SLD Central vs Local

Hi,
We are planning to install a NW2004s system for the use of EP. During installation we had configured the system to use "Local SLD". How do we configure this system to use our "Central SLD" ? Please point to some documentation.
Cheers!!

Hi Rao
I will tell you few steps to hook ur EP system to Centrel SLD.
1.Go to visual administrator of EP( java system)--instance-serverservices-----SLD data supplier
2.Put the details of ur centrel SLD there in http settings.I mean the server name,user who has admin rights for ur central sld.
3.Click on the save button.
4.Perform the same steps in CIM client generation settings
5.You can check ur configuration by clicking on CIMClient Test.
6.If everything is correct ,you will get successfull pop up window.
7.Then trigger the data transfer by clicking a blue colour arrow.This will trigger ur EP data to the central SLD.I mean they both can talk now.
8.Then you can also go to ur central SLD,and search for your EP instance,it will be listed there.
In case you face any issues let me know.

Como pasar un SLD central de PI a SLD LOCAL...???

Hola amigos necesito de su ayuda...!!!!
tengo un SLD central PI entre Desarrollo y Calidad, ya no lo quiero central, lo quiero cambiar a LOCAL
alguno de ustedes podría orientarme para resolver este asunto......???
muchas gracias...!!!

Hi Swapnika,
"The SLD is a server application that communicates with a client application by using the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP)"
Server application is nothing but the SAP server, every SAP server has it's own SLD which can be treated as local SLD. it will use HTTP communication to interact with the Client's nothing but the other SAP and non-SAP systems which are configured in your SLD.
What is Central SLD and what is the difference between Central and Local SLD?
System Landscape Directory Planning Guide
Using Local and Central System Landscape Directories - SAP NetWeaver Process Integration - SAP Library
Do we have to register all SAP and non-SAP systems manually in SLD.
Yes we should register both SAP and Non-SAP systems manually in SLD.
there are 4 types of Technical and business systems in available in SLD.
Web AS ABAP : used for configuring SAP systems like SRM, CRM etc
Web AS Java : used for java systems consist of one or more instances.
Third-party : used for configuring non-SAP systems like Oracle, SQL server, Web-services etc
Stand alone Java: used for java systems that are installed on a system from an administrative perspective.

PI 7.1: Central vs. local SLD

We are in the process of setting up a PI 7.1. Our landscape has a central SLD (standalone on 7.00 without any other applications on it).
The PI installation guides recommends to use the local SLD that is synchronized with the central SLD instead of using the central SLD directly.
I remember from some time ago - where we tried to get a synchronization running - that is was not that "easy" and difficult to troubleshoot.
I'm not yet convinced to set up a separate SLD (or more than one for DEV, QA and PRD) instead of having one SLD in the landscape.
Are there any known implications (aside from the inability to use the CTC during setup) when we use an SLD of 7.00 together with a PI 7.1?
Markus

Holà Henrique,
gracias!
We don't use a "classical" cluster scenario but virtualized using Solaris zones (as failover cluster only, not with two nodes).
My question was more regarding functionality with scenarios - are the implications or any known no-go's for running a PI 7.1 against an SLD 7.00? If the SLD is "just" the storage for Technical and business systems and JCos for WD-Java, then it should work

Central Authentication / Local Switching for Mesh?

Hi all,
I'm afraid I know the answer but maybe I'm just missing something. Anyway, here's the situation: I have a multi-site installation with a centralized WLC (currently 2504). Each wireless VLAN at each site uses the same ID but has a local network (e.g. site 2 is 192.168.2.0/24, site 3 is 192.168.3.0/24 but both are VLAN 100).
When I configure APs for H-REAP/FlexConnect, there's no problem. Users are authenticated via a centralized RADIUS server (Cisco SecureACS 5.x) and I have local switching enabled so clients pick up an address from a localized DHCP server (ASA firewall in most cases).
However, the impetus for installing the WLC requires a mesh network, consisting of 2 RAPs and 2 MAPs. My catch 22 is now this: if a RAP is in FlexConnect mode, the MAP won't associate, but if the RAP is in RAP mode, the MAP associates, but clients don't appear to get IP addresses (on an iPhone for example, the wheel just keeps spinning until it gives up).
It's my understanding that since the APs are no longer in FlexConnect mode, all the wireless traffic is now being tunneled back through the centralized WLC which associates the VLANs with networks that don't exist on site.
Is my understanding correct? If so, is there any way I can go about achieving what I want to do which is get the FlexConnect effect but still have Mesh capabilities? Right now it seems the obvious (albeit very expensive answer) is to decentralize the WLC and have HA WLC configured on a per site basis.
Any input/advice greatly appreciated. Thank you.

I second your thought about mesh and as for what to do - I don't think you can do anything. Perhaps, a cheap way to solve this problem can be installing a local 2504 at sites that require mesh links. This will allow you terminating all VLAN/SSID mappings locally. Sorry :-(

Confused: Central Switching/Local Switching

Was wondering if someone could explain local/central switching a little further, when it comes to HREAP/FlexConnect modes for CAPWAP AP's.
So in our environment, we're running 7.5.102.0 code on all of our WLC's. We have a central WLC in two of our regions(US and Europe). Each region provides internet services for the remote sites connected to it. So a site in Chicago comes back to our central office over an MPLS for their internet services; just as a site in italy comes back to our central office in the UK for their internet service over MPLS. These remote sites have AP's that are in FlexConnect mode back to the central WLC's.
My question......I understand that an AP in central switching mode tunnels the traffic back to the central controller, whereas local switching does not. However, what does that mean? If the WAN link goes down, how does local switching help? The internet is still down, since that's how the internet is advertised back from the central location. Does that just mean that local server can be accessed, over wireles, since we are in local switching mode? Same question for authentciation; Our AD servers are located at the central sites, with no AD servers at the remote sites. In local authentication mode, how would an AP register a user, if the MPLS link is down? Does it download some sort of cached directory for authentication?
Thanks for your help!

Yes, in local switching mode, wireless client traffic locally switched at the branch (you have to defined their SVI on branch switch) and they can access any branch resources whiel WAN link is down. If internet servie is provided by your central office, then they won't get internet services while your WAN link is down.
If you configured local authentication, yes WLC will pass credential (if WLC has user credential like WAP2-PSK or WEP) to AP where it can use for local authentication. If you are using dot1x with RADIUS & AD, then you should have redundancy of these services in order to Branch AP to use these in a situation controller is unavailable.

Difference between Central and Local Repository

Dear Experts:
I'm relatively new to Data Integrator world. The question I have is around setting up a new Central Repository. As I understand, the steps involved in creating a central repository are:
1. Setup as a DI account (e.g. PRODREPO)
2. Create Central Repository tables
My question is how does the DI application know that PRODREPO is a central repository and not a local. What differentiates a local vs. central repository?
Any help or pointers is greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

repository type is stored in the DI repository, using which all DI application differentiate a local, profiler, central repository
certain functions are not applicable to central repo like Job Execution, Login from Designer, Adding to Job Server

AS-ABAP (BI) system registration in SLD RZ70 Error

Hi guys, I'm following the SAP note 983156 - BI configuration w. Template Installer and I'm in the step in order to establish communication between my BW IDES and Portal.
""Checking the AS-ABAP (BI) system registration in SLD""
the note says:
"When configuring the Webdynpro Jco destination connectivity the AS-ABAP (BI) system must be configured in the SLD."
Procedure:
Logon to the SLD: http://<host>:<port>/sld. (Your configured SLD (central or local SLD))
Please check in Home -> Technical Systems -> select type ABAP. This
should have configuration of your ABAP (BI) system.
If it is missing, logon to your ABAP (BI) system -> goto transaction RZ70. Fill in the SLD bridge: gateway info -> Activate -> Start data collection."
Well, when I'm in SDL Home > Technical systems, I have nothing there, so I started to enable the SDL Bridge in RZ70 and after running it, it gives me the error:
0: ibm_IAM_00 : Collection of SLD data finished
0: ibm_IAM_00 : Data collected successfully
0: ibm_IAM_00 : RFC data prepared
0: ibm_IAM_00 : Used RFC destination: IBM_PORTAL_IAN
0: ibm_IAM_00 : RFC call failed: JCO.Server could not find server function 'SET_SLD_DATA'
0: ibm_IAM_00 : Existing periodic jobs removed. Number: 1
0: ibm_IAM_00 : Program scheduled: 20100602 000100
1: ibm_IAM_00 : Event-controlled job already exists; scheduling not necessary
I looked through other posts, I eliminated SLD_NUC and SLD_UC from JAVA Visual Administrator, but still, the error persists.
Any ideas?

Hi Kuatroka,
In relation to the following error received: "JCO.Server could not find server function SET_SLD_DATA"
1) RZ70 could not find gateway - check gateway defined in RZ70 is up and running in host and SLD home page ->Administration -> Data Supplier Bridge and SLD gateway host is reachable from ABAP system host.
2) Be aware SLD/J2EE does not install a gateway as standard - you must either install a dedicated gateway instance using Presentation CD/DVD or you must use a local ABAP gateway (normally local ABAP stack if SLD runs on J2EE ADDIN) or ensure the definitions are correct for any other ABAP systems gateway you choose to use
3) Check the definitions in SLD -> Administration ->Data Supplier Bridge match the definitions in RZ70 - try also FQDN. Ensure these are the same!
4) If you are operating multiple SLD see SAP note 700127
5) Ensure you have not manually created entries for SLD_UC and SLD_NUC in the JCO RFC provider of the visual administrator. The SLD has its own internal JCO provider so there should be no entries in that of the Engine.
I am not sure of your SP levels, but this may also apply: if you have a gateway service on the defined host, the definitions
match between RZ70 and SLD, the gateway is running then it could be a problem with RZ70 - implement notes 906454 and 926089 and 907729.
I hope this information helps.
All the best,
Cristiano

SLD Bridge Errors

Hello Gurus,
I have configured SLD Bridge from my production system to Solution manager. I can now import all ABAP information into SOLMAN via RZ70 without problems.
Now i want to send production J2EE information to my SOLMAN for this i goto Visual Admin and Under SLD Data Supplier i trigger the data transfer to SLD. Hope i am doing this right?
The transfer completes successfully and information is reflected correctly on the local SLD but nothing comes up on SOLMAN. I checked the local SLD logs and i get the following error.
#41 06/12/2009 15:58:36.350 [Thread-6063] ERROR com.sap.lcr.sagent.BuilderDirector: Data supplier circular redirection. Check data supplier bridge targets. (Data will be ignored on this server) Redirect list: [com.sap.lcr.sagent.data.Instance@6b05daa9 ]
Do i have to maintain any SLD bridge details for J2ee apart from RZ70. Please let me know.

Hi,
The AS ABAP (BI) system has to be registered in the SLD. If it is not registered in the SLD logon to the SLD: http ://:/sld. (Your configured SLD (central or local SLD))Please check in Home -> Technical Systems -> select type ABAP. This should have configuration of your ABAP (BI) system.If it is missing, logon to your ABAP (BI) system -> goto transaction RZ70. Fill in the SLD bridge: gateway info -> Activate -> Start data collection.If a error message like "ABAP backend doesn't exist in the SLD" pops up while running the template installer, there could be different possibilities for this error. Starting SP14 more detailed error sources will be popped up. For lower SPS the exact reason of the error can be found in the default trace file.Please look at this link

Hi
I found your question because I wanted the answer to it too. I'm trying to connect my Java-only stack portal to my ABAP-only stack BI system using the template in NWA. I get through all the steps up to the creation of the WebDynpro JCO RFC destinations then it fails saying "ABAP Backend doesn't exist in the SLD".
I've checked the SLD and the ABAP backend most definitely DOES exist in the SLD and the SLD is being updated by both the ABAP backend and the Java portal systems thus proving a valid connection exists between the SLD and both systems I'm trying to connect.
I think I've solved it however.
I always define a TCP alias equal to the SID for any SAP system I build and I try to make all connections to <sid>.<fully.qualified.domain.name>. This separates, to a degree, the physical server from the SAP instance.
I used this alias in the BI installation template but I noticed that the ABAP backend was listed as <SID> <hostname> in the SLD (not <SID> <sid alias>). When I used the real hostname in the template it ran to completion.
The other change I made, and it's possible that this was the real reason instead of the alias/hostname issue, was that I restarted the BI system before retrying. I only did this because I was getting error messages saying there were too many active CPIC conversations and I couldn't find them to kill them off.
Hope one or other of these things might help.

Switching from central SLD to local SLD

Hello,
i have installed BI Java with central sld.
Could I switch back from cetral sld to local sld?
I didn't find any documentation or posts.
Thanks,

Adapter monitoring with central SLD!

Hi ,
we have central SLD in our landscape(different host from XI server),and our basis guys installed PI7.0 SP12.And AE is local as I can see under Integration server.
I can see JPR in adapter in adapter monitoring.
I have question here!
should it needs to show all the list of adapters (FILE,JDBC,JMS,SOAP etc)in adapter monitoring in RWB?does it vary,if sld is central or local ?
what is the ideal way.
thank you,
babu

where the adapter engine should appear in RWB under integration server or under non central adapter engine if we have installed central AE and central SLD?
Under Component monitoring -> Integration server -> Adapter Engine
and it has show all the adapters when we install central AE and with central SLD when we furthur click the show all adapters?
As i mentioned above, u may view all the adapters after clicking
Adapter Engine -> Adapter Monitoring
or is it changed since PI 7.0 to cummunication channel monitoring and no adapter monitoring?
Yes. Now the monitoring of adapters r much intensively done by Communication Channel Monitoring

Best Recommendation to link Central SLD to LMDB

hi
What is your suggestion to connect central SLD on SAP Netweaver to LMDB on Solution Manager 7.1 ?
Q1.
I can think of 2 options:
1) Central SLD (NW) > Local SLD (SM7.1) > LMDB
2) Central SLD (NW) > LMDB
Is it necessary to configure a local SLD on solution manager 7.1 and pull data from the central sld (NW) to syn to the LMDB?
Or can we direct syn from central SLD to LMDB?
What are the pro and cons for the 2 options?
Q2.
During the setup of the solution manager, it is required to choose an option of the SLD Destination
1) Register in existing central SLD
2) Configure a local SLD
I realise both questions are somehow link and can affect my setup.
For instance:
if i decided for (Central SLD (NW) > Local SLD (SM7.1) > LMDB) , i will need to choose Configure a local SLD
If i decided for (Central SLD (NW) > LMDB), i will choose Register in existing central SLD.
So which is better decision? Secondly, SAP recommended to configure a local SLD. Can i configure and not used it if i happened to go for Central SLD (NW) > LMDB? SInce no local SLD is required.
Pls advise. Thanks in advance
Regards
Gary

Hello Gary,
The right option is
2) Central SLD (NW) > LMDB
Is it necessary to configure a local SLD on solution manager 7.1 and pull data from the central sld (NW) to syn to the LMDB?
No, it is not necessary. Solution Manager's LMDB needs to be fed with a SLD, local or not.
Or can we direct sync from central SLD to LMDB?
Yes, you can.
What are the pro and cons for the 2 options?
There aren't really pros and cons. It's up to you to maintain a SLD centrally outside Solman or a local SLD in the Solution Manager.
Regarding your Q2, please make sure you are not refeering to Solution Manager 7.0 EHP1 recommendations, because the documentation for EHP1 in fact recommends a local SLD.
For configuration options and examples, check the [Setup Guide Landscape Management Database|https://websmp109.sap-ag.de/%7Esapidb/011000358700000551222011E.URL]. Also there's a Wiki topic article: http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=250514114
I will leave the official recommendation part to another contribuitor to share thoughts in this topic. Meanwhile may you please point out where did you see such recommendation?
Regards
Guilherme
