SOLAR02 Configuration structure versus Configuration tab

SOLAR02 offers two approaches to implement configuration in solution manager project tools:
maintain configuration structure (you find this in hierarchy tree on left-handside)
OR
configuration TAB on Business Scenario, Business process and Business Process step levels
configuration TAB on master data and organizational data nodes
What is the point having so many options?
Why would I use the Configuration structure option instead of configuration TABs? Examples of using Configuration structure?
Best practises???
br: Kim

Thanks Michael,
I understand your point, but does projects really do that way? I mean that configuration is scattered partly in configuration structure (for common configurations) and partly within different levels of project structure and Organizational and Master data.
Has anybody choosen to consolidate all configuration in just configuration structure, where it will be easy to locate rather than finding pieces there and pieces here.

Change Configuration Structure in SOLAR02 in SOLMAN 7.10

Folks,
I am looking to document the configuration of my project in SOLMAN and have created a project. In version 7.01 I was able to go into transaction SOLAR02 and click on the Configuration folder (not tab) and then choose 'Change Configuration Structure'. In the following screen I could create the hierarchical structure that would allow me to document and configure the supporting setup of my project.
However, in version 7.10 when I go to 'Change Configuration Structure' it gives me a screen saying that there is no configuration structure but no way to create it.
The Help documentation for version 7.10 indicates that I should be able to do this in the exact same manner as in version 7.01. I am on SOLMAN 7.10 SPS3; a ST01 authorisation trace indicates no errors and I have the appropriate work centre role (SAP_SOL_TC_COMP).
Any help in figuring out how to do this would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Ciará

Folks,
The solution to this was the implementation of note 1674781. This applies to SP4 and is very new so has not been translated into English as yet but SAP Support assure me that there are no pre or post manual implementation tasks.
I've implemented the note and Configuration in SOLAR02 works perfectly now.

How to copy documents from SOLAR02 configuration structure into Solution

Hi,
in SOLOA02 we have stored our cross scenario configuration in the solution structure on top level node 'configuration' as described in the help 'Implementation and Upgrade Projects'->'projects'->'configuration'->'Edit cross scenario configuration'.
During hand-over from project to support I want to copy the information stored under configuration into our solution directory (TC SOLUTION_DIRECTORY). In the solution structure there is no top level node 'configuration'. Only 'Org Unkits, Master Dtaa, Business Scenarios, Interface Scenarios, Systems, Servers.
Can I customize the default solution structure and add the missing node? Is there another way to copy the documents?
Best regards,
Peter

Hi Peter,
the only way to relate the configuration structure from a project to a solution is via a maintenance project. You need to assign a maintenance project to your solution (on the solution settings tab). This will create a solution node in the maintenance project. You can now copy the configuration structure from your implementation project to the configuration structure underneath the solution node of the maintenance project.
Best regards,
Michael

How to read configuration structure (SD)

Hello,
i've to read the whole configuration structure of an SD-order item, which isn't expanded to sub-positions. Means: the material in item 10 is an BOM head-material and a KMAT. The materials in the multi-level BOM are configured via the configuration of the head material. If you press the "Configuration" button in the SD-sales order, you see the whole configuration structure. Does anybody know how i can read the whole structure from the database if i know only the SD-order and the item number?
Thanks,
Richard

use FM to get config, you'll have to pass cuobj there.
call function 'CUCB_GET_CONFIGURATION'
   exporting
        instance                     = vbap-cuobj
   importing
        configuration                = z_instance_tab
   exceptions
        invalid_instance             = 1
        instance_is_a_classification = 2
        others                       = 3

Configuration Structure

Hi Experts,
What is the best way to reuse/share all Configuration Structure elements such as folders, documentation, etc.
We would like to use Solution Directory as a central repository for all project documentation but as far as I know we can't import configuration structure including the documentation into the Solution Directory.
Please don't post any URLs to the SAP Help as I have seen it all.
We are using a template project but this is still doesn't meet the requirement of 1 document version for projects and operations.
I need some clarifications from an expert who have been in this situation.
Regards,
Ridouan

How to configure structured material

when I try to post material with movement type 319 by MB1B, system showed to me 'Movement type 319 can only be carried out for structured material'. Please tell me how to configure structured material? it is better to provide more detail information.thanks,

Hi
I can see the question has been in the forum for quite sometime, but I would like to provide input perhaps to enable you to close it. Structured material based on my experience only applicable to IS-Retail. It is meant for gift pack that contains a few articles in it. Since you log this question in this forum, I would assume you dont have IS Retail. Perhaps you should consider other mvt to solve the problem that you are facing right now.

Managed System SLM~ABAP is not configured (Step 10: Configuration Check)

When I try to spend the last procedure "Configuration Check" (item 10 - Managed System Configuration) I get here is only an error message
The definition of Technical System 'SLM~JAVA' is not correct: 'SLM~JAVA': Operating System 'Linux~2.6.32-358.23.2.' of Host 'sslm' must have at least one Software Component Version
'SLM~JAVA': Operating System 'Linux~2.6.32-358.23.2.' of Host 'sslm' must have at least one Software Component Version
Outside Discovery issue: refer to SAP Note 1611483
Managed systems setup | Managed System Definition Status (post setup) | SYSTEM =SLM~JAVA
What a way such settings: Managed systems setup | Managed System Definition Status?
I probably know only the tab SapSolution Manager: Configuration-> Managed system configuration-> Technical systems, but there make these settings is not possible.
How do I resolve this is "must have at least one Software Component Version"?
ps said note (1611483) has been done, but apparently no effect brought

Hi Michael,
Can you please check below :
Correct Software Component version is displayed in LMDB -> Host - > Tab Installed Software.
Managed System setup -> Assign Diagnostic agent -> Check SAP Host agents (to enusre agent is running)
You may restart both Diagnostic and Host agent and check again after few minutes if data is updated.
Additionally please check below SAP notes which might help resolve the issue :
1890035 - Error "Host 'hostname' must have at least one installed Technical system" during the step 'Check Prerequisites'
1799138 - Solution Manager configuration check returns "The definition of Technical System '{SID}~{STACK}' is not correct: '{SID}~{STACK}' : Operating System '{OSName}' of Host '{hostname}' must have at least one Software Component Version"
Hope this helps.
Thanks & Regards,

ACS 5.3 Occurred At: Tue Sep 10 04:00:00 IST 2013 Cause: Purge Configuration Repository not configured

hi team,
I am runing ACS 5.3 version and i am getting error messages like below
System Alarm [Database Purging]
Mon Sep 09 04:00:00
Incremental Backup Not Configured
System Alarm [Database Purging]
Sun Sep 08 04:00:00
Purge Configuration Repository not configured
Cause:
Purge Configuration Repository not configured
Details:
Configure Remote Repository under Purge Configuration which is used to take a backup of data before purge.
Cause:
Incremental Backup Not Configured
Details:
Incremental backup is not configured. Configuring incremental backup is necessary to make the database purge successful. This will help to avoid disk space issues. View database Size is 1.27GB and size it occupies on the harddisk is 1.22GB.
Could any one provide solution to overcome this issue.

Hi,
I guess I've seen this before even we've repository and incremental backup configured fine on ACS. One reason could be for the above alarms is the configuration on the GUI might not have taken over completely in the database and alarms will trigger due to that. Please restart the services of the ACS or reload the ACS in off production hours.

How configure reporting services configuration with sql server business development studio

I have installed sql server 2008 r2 mixed mode(sql server authentication) with native mode
I want to run report using reporting services config manager.
I made report in ssrs and I have configured reporting services configuration and web url from RSCM( reporting services config manager), i put on ssrs report.
report is build and deployed but when i take deployed url on Internet explorer, it shows the window below:
when I put the password nothing happened . if I put url in google chrome then it shows authentication required window like the same in IE
if I passed username=(levent/sa) and password then goes on window but does not see on page, if I passed only administrator name (levent) not passed sql server login name (sa) then does not close 'Authentication window'
'Computer connect net with modem'
before i tried on earlier PC, it worked fine.
setting is below link like this.
only set service Account is Use_built=NetworkSrvice
link
http://www.azurecurve.co.uk/2012/02/how-to-configure-sql-server-reporting-services-in-order-to-deploy-reporting-services-reports-in-gp/
what is the problem
Plz give suggestion quickly

Hi tusharshinde,
Per my understanding that when you log in the report Manager you got the pop-up window ask for credential, you try to enter the SA account and the window account as the username and password but both not work, right?
Your issue related to the authentication. As you mentioned you have choose the ”Network Service” as the Service account, generally using this account in RSCM and RSWindowsNegotiate is added to the RSReportServer.config file as the default setting. With this
setting, the report server can accept requests from client applications requesting Kerberos or NTLM authentication. If Kerberos is requested and the authentication fails, the report server switches to NTLM authentication and prompts the user for credentials
unless the network is configured to manage authentication transparently.
The issue can be caused by many factors and please check one by one.
Did you enter the username and password for three times and got blank page or got some error? If you got some error, please provide the error information.
you can delete the specific Authorization Types inside rsreportserver.config file, open path:” \Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSRS10_50.MSSQLSERVER\Reporting Services\ReportServer\rsreportserver.config”.
Search the file for the “AuthenticationTypes” section. Remove RSWindowsNegotiate and RSWindoeBasic to ensure only “RSWindowsNTLM” is specified in the file rsreportserver.config file.
Before do any modification, back up the files and remember to restart the ReportServer instance in the RSCM after the modification.
If step1 doesn’t work ,please also do the trusted Site Setting in the Browser, article with details steps for your reference:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb630430.aspx
Please check the Report Manager's authentication mode.Have a look in the Report Manager's web.config file to check if you can find below information under the <system.web> (Path is “C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSRS10_50.MSSQLSERVER\Reporting
Services\ReportManager\Web.config ” ).
authentication mode="Windows"
identity impersonate="True"

Please tried to provide us more details information, if the problem still exists:
Did you login in the report manager locally or remotely via Browser and which URL you are using to login the Report manager?
Did you modified some configuration file before and what did you modified?
Did your windows account have the right permission to access the report manager?
Any problem, please feel free to ask.

Difference between component configuration and application configuration in webdynpro

what is the difference between component configuration and application configuration in webdynpro?

Hi Rohit,
With the component configuration, you can control the behavior of each individual component within a Web Dynpro application or the user interface of individual views. For each component, several records of configuration data can be created.
Using the application configuration, it is now possible to assign the configuration required in the current application to all the components used.
In short : Component Config belongs to WDP Component and Appl'n Config. belongs to WDP Appl'n.
Check this document for more information.

Hi,
Yes you can configure PP with out CO but you will not get Product Costing results for the materials used.
You will not be able to link Activities, Cost Centers, Over Heads which are production activities.
Cost Analyisis for the Order will not be possible.
To say in brief Cost related entries or break up is not possible if CO is not implemented.

Build Extension Configuration / Deployment Extension Configuration

Hello,
I've been following the tutorial to build a Deployment Plan Modifier here (https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn268597%28v=vs.103%29.aspx), and I saw this post (http://blogs.msdn.com/b/ssdt/archive/2013/06/24/announcing-sql-server-data-tools-june-2013.aspx)
that describes the addition of Build Extension Configuration and Deployment Extension Configuration files to SSDT projects. I get the impression that maybe these files could be used to pass configuration information to a Deployment Plan Modifier, such
as to define a custom upgrade action on a table.
I cannot find any documentation that describes the purpose of Deployment Extension Configurations or how to create and use them (I have looked through SSDT documentation, blog posts etc.). Ideally, there should be documentation and a walk through available
on MSDN for this. Has anybody else used them? Can anybody give an example of how to use them or point me in the direction of some documentation?
Thanks
Lipod

Hi Lipod, your best place to get started with contributors is our
API tutorial (see Solution 2: Filtering at deployment time) and our
dacsamples project on Codeplex. These have more samples than the walkthrough and I think will be more useful in helping you get up and running.
However, having taken a look at those they still don't cover Deployment Extension Configuration files so I'll do my best to explain here. Note: the next paragraph will probably answer your needs, I'm writing more in case others want to know how these can
be used.
Configuration with Deployment Contributor Arguments
Deployment Contributor Arguments are key-value pairs that you would generally use to configure your contributor. A good example is the
test code here, that shows how to configure whether ONLINE and MAXDOP values should be set when creating indexes. This is generally how you pass in simple configuration information and what we use in the samples.
It's likely this will solve your requirements.
Configuration with Deployment Extension Configuration Files
Deployment Configuration Files define files that you'd like your contributor to process (note: this happens at build time), and possibly include in the dacpac for processing at the time your contributor runs. The best
example of why you'd use this is if you wanted to include reference data (e.g. data to fill in a ZipCode table) in the dacpac and then add this to the deployment plan.
To include these at build time you must define these in your .sqlproj file and also specify that your deployment contributor is required (e.g. include the <DeploymentContributors>...</DeploymentContributors> section per the
walkthrough).
You must also implement the
OnEstablishDeploymentConfiguration and
OnApplyDeploymentConfiguration methods.
OnEstablish... runs at build time (project build or when building using the public APIs, which you can use for testing). The important thing to note is we don't save everything into the dacpac by default - you need to "opt in" by either
copying an input file to the output "as is" or
creating a new output file and saving data there. A good example of why this happens is that our pre/post deployment contributors merge multiple files into one single predeploy.sql/postdeploy.sql file.
OnApply... runs at the start of the deployment process and gives you a chance to setup your contributor based on the config files in the dacpac. If you copied an input file/opened an output file it'll be in the dacpac, and now is your chance to get it out.
You can then use it later during the Execute phase.
If you're wondering "why not let me just read my files during OnExecute", really this comes down to a design decision based on ensuring deployment proceeds reliably and all resources are released correctly, with no conflicts on who has access
to a resource.
For the example of reference data, you would:
- Define the "DeployReferenceData" contributor in your project, and specify the deployment configuration files.
- The contributor would read reference data files during OnEstablish and state they should be saved in the dacpac.
- During build the OnEstablish method will be called (since you specified your contributor's name in the project properties) and the files are saved into the dacpac. It's a zip file, so you can verify that a folder containing the files exists inside the
dacpac.
- At deploy time, during OnApply it would read all reference data files out into memory / file storage if too large. It would also set up some kind of reference to their location or even a nice mapping table (table name -> Reference data).
- At deploy time, during OnExecute it would then add in DeploymentSteps that update the data in the tables using TSQL code. Note that this is another limitation of the current system - we don't suport a generic "Execute" method that could programmatically
be used to deploy a BCP file, for example. If this is something you need, please open a Connect ticket :-)
- At deploy time, all steps in the plan are executed. Assuming you programmed your TSQL code to use Merge statements or another idempotent process the update should go correctly. If you wrote "Insert" statements there's a good chance it would fail
on a 2nd deployment.
Conclusions
The key takeaways are that contributor arguments should solve most of your problems, but for advanced scenarios involving data that can't be defined in a key-value pair of strings then config files are a good alternative. They have some limitations
but provide great power to solve problems. Also the samples are a good place to start for all of this work.
If you have requests for additional samples in this area, or for improvements to the API layer, then open Connect bugs with a good scenario description and we will at least keep this as open issues to be tracked for possible future improvements.
Regards,
Kevin

Configuration archive after configuration change

Hello,
I'm assuming this can work with switches, routers, and controllers. I'm running PI 2.1 and am trying to get the configuration archive functionality working. I have both of these options checked under System Settings > Configuration Archive:
:: Archive configuration out-of-box
:: Archive configuration on receiving configuration change events
On the IOS device, these settings were configured for syslog/snmp:
logging buffered 100000
no logging event link-status
logging trap notifications
logging facility local6
logging source-interface Loopback0
logging <Prime IP>
snmp-server community ***** RW 13
snmp-server enable traps config
snmp-server enable traps syslog
snmp-server host <Prime IP> version 2c *****
I do not see any syslog messages in PI under alarms/alerts and the configuration never gets archived. I haven't run tcpdump yet to determine if PI is receiving these traps but I was hoping it was something simple I was overlooking. Thanks for any assistance that can be provided.

Thank you for the reply. To answer your question, yes. Community information matches with PI credentials.
I actually did get it to work yesterday. I did original testing on a 1921 router which is still not working, but when I tried configuring the same information on some switches (3750's) it worked. I thought routers would be configured the same - are there hardware limitations to this?
I look in the built-in CLI template 'Configure Logging' in PI and it only has switches and WLCs as available devices to push out to but I don't know what to make of it.
