SolMan and Dev client

Hello!
We are in the configuration phase now using SM4.0. Our  SolMan-Prod is connected to the Dev client (Golden client) as target. The team is configuring using solar02 and accessing the IMG and completing the configuration document. Some team members access the Dev client directly and complete the configuration, My question is,
How do I restrict access to the Dev client directly by the team members?
The team members should have access to the Dev-IMG thro' SolMan only and not directly. That way there is better control in the configuration phase.
Appreciate any inputs.
Thanks.
Mike

Hi Mike,
I have heared colleagues saying that it can be achieved by restricting access to SPRO in the DEV system.
But the RFC connection b/n SolMan & the Dev system should have full access.
Let me know whether it helps.
best regds,
Alagammai.

  • [ChaRM]  2 DEV clients and 2 QA clients

    Hi
    I have a situation where 2 DEV clients and 2 QA clients exist before release to production.
    DEV
    100 Workbench
      200 Customizing
    QA
      100 Test 1 (for vendor)
       200 Test 2 (for customer)
    PRD
      100 Production
    Transports from DEV 100 and DEV 200 need to be released to QA 100 and 200.
    (sometimes to only one of 2 QA clients, which makes it even more complicated)
    If I apply SolMan ChaRM to this enviornment, what configuration are recommended?
    (SMSY, TMS???)
    Thank you

  • How to handle multiple DEV clients in CHARM

    Experts:
    We have many DEV clients  in our ECC landscape.
    Some customizing needs to be imported into all DEV clients.
    In order to use CHARM to do above import into different  DEV clients, I want to define some logical components with only
    2 systems, i.e. source DEV client and target DEV client (e.g.  DEV100->DEV200).  Then link this logical component to a
    project.
    In this way we will define  many projects (logical componets, maintenance cycles)  depending on how path combinations existing on  the STMS setup.
    Could you help verify whether this will work as expected? Because I did not configure 2 system  tp for CHARM before therefore I am not sure.
    Thanks a lot!

    Hi,
    you should take a look to those 2 threads especially the second one IF those other clients are USED FOR CREATING TR:
    Re: Multiple clients in DEV and QA for CHARM setup
    Change Request Management for multiple production clients
    IF the other clients should just be synchronized with custo done in the first one then the lines above will help you.
    Important fact "A Solman Project can have more than a logical component."
    So for example in your case if you are trying to update DEV 200 with DEV 100 when importing TR to quality system (200 must be a kind of reference client for you),
    you ll simply have to declare a Solman Project containing the core logical component (for ex: DEV 100 -> QUAL 100 -> PRD 100) AND another one that ll let you import in DEV 200 (DEV 100 -> DEV 200).
    In your generated tasklist you'll then find DEV 200 under Target Systems node; like if it was a QUAL system AND you ll find tasks as "Import Transport Requests" available for DEV 200.
    As a prerequesite you MUST declare DEV 200 in your logical component as a Target Role System and not as a Source Role System (like DEV 100) (Transaction SMSY). Otherwise Solman will understand that DEV 200 will be used only for creating and releasing TR and it will be considered like DEV 100
    Hope it helps
    Keep me updated with how it goes

  • ChaRM config with two dev clients

    Hi Experts,
    Has anyone tried ChaRM with two dev clients, one for customizing and one for workbench, is it like adding two QA/prod systems?
    Please help.
    Thanks and Regards,
    Jamuna Nithyanandam

    Hi Jamuna,
    Like already mentioned, maintain 2 logical components in SMSY with the correct systems, and add these logical components to your Project.
    When in a Change Document (U.rgent or Normal Correction), the action 'Create Transport Request' is executed, a pop-up will be shown and people can select where they want to have the Transport created.
    Of course, SolMan will always show the two options - Workbench or Customizing Transport - when creating the Transport Request. So people need to pay attention that there are only creating WRKB in the WRKB-client and CUSTO in the CUSTO-client. As far as I know, this cannot be limited technically in SolMan.
    Good luck!
    Best regards,

  • Issue with parallel operation of SAP NW SSO 2.0 and SNC Client Encryption (Logon Groups)

    Hi!
    One of our customers is using the SNC Client Encryption solution to ensure encryption using SNC (based on Kerberos Technology) for their SAP GUI Dialog connections. They have lots of SAP backends DEV, QAS, PRD all with the SNC Client Encryption SNC Lib installed. The profile parameter snc/identity/as contains the following value: p:CN=SAP/<ServiceAccount>@<DOMAIN>.
    Example: p:CN=SAP/[email protected]
    The customer is using one AD Service Account "SNCServiceUser" with one registered SPN "SAP/SNCServiceUser" for all systems (yes, this is not recommended... but the case).
    Important: All users use group entries in the SAP Logon (saplogin.ini). Means, for SAP logon the SNC name can not be manually configured on the SAP Front End. With group logons, the application server's SNC name is dynamically requested by the message server each time a SAP GUI connection is started. The SNC Name is greyed out in this case as dynamically obtained from the applications servers profile parameter snc/identity/as.
    Now our customer implements SAP NetWeaver Single Sign-On 2.0 within his landscape. Based on the Secure Login Server 2.0 (SP3) he likes to use X.509 based authentication to his AS ABAP backends using SAP GUI SNC while others still use SNC Client Encryption.
    Replacing the SNC Library on the AS ABAP
    The Secure Login Library 2.0 (SP3) has been installed on one of the ABAP systems and the SNC Client Encryption SNC Library (which is based on SSO 1.0) is no longer used, thus we changed the parameter snc/gssapi_lib to point to the new SNC library. We removed the old PSE.ZIP containing the keytab and created the new SAPSNCSKERB.PSE incl. the keytab and proper credentials. To ensure parallel operation, we kept the snc/identity/as value as is =  p:CN=SAP/[email protected].
    After restarting the system with initialized Secure Login Library 2.0, still the SNC client encryption works fine for existing users.
    The problem
    We created on the Secure Login Server an SNC certificate for the AS ABAP which has the following X.509 Distinguised Name Fomat: CN=SAP/[email protected] This is to avoid having to change the snc/identity/as to an "real" X.509 DN which would lead to non-working SNC Client Encryption for all the other users using SAP GUI and logon groups.
    As soon as we install the PSE via STRUST on the system the SNC Client Encryption solution stops working with error „Server refuses kerberos key exchange“.
    As part of an pilot implementation we have installed Secure Login Client 2.0 (SP3) on some test PCs. The test PC with SLC is able to perform Single Sign-On with SNC based on X.509 (incl. Encryption) to the ABAP system.
    Seems the SAP System now only tries to do X.509 based authentication thus key exchange fails. The problem is, we cannot change the snc/identity/as value because of the logon groups. If we were able to do so, we would in any case set the server identity to X.509 DN and in addition create the SAPSNCSKERB.PSE incl. keytab. This should work, as confirmed by SAP see this post.  
    Any ideas how to solve this and have both solutions in parallel?
    Appreciate any help.
    Regards,
    Carsten

    Hi all,
    we was able to fix the issue. It was an issue with the customers cluster configuration and the  $SECUDIR variable. This tricky issue leads to non working or sporadic working SNC Client Encryption...
    This was how the configuration looks before:
    Environment variable $SECUDIR is defined:
    "/ABCDEF<SID>/usr/sap/<SID>/DVEBMGSxx/sec“
    sapgenpse seclogin -l -v
    running seclogin with USER="<SID>adm"
    Credentials for username '<SID>adm':
    0 (LPS:OFF):
             (LPS:OFF): /ABCDEF<SID>/usr/sap/<SID>/DVEBMGSxx/sec/SAPSNCSKERB.pse
    1 (LPS:OFF):
             (LPS:OFF): /usr/sap/<SID>/DVEBMGSxx/sec/SAPSNCS.pse
    After changing the $SECUDIR to "/usr/sap/<SID>/DVEBMGSxx/sec“ and re-creating the credentials, it worked like a charm.
    As a result of this we can confirm, this configuration and SNC Client Encryption works with CommonCryptoLib in parallel to the SSO configuration.
    And Valerie was right with 2. SLC starting from V. 1.0 SP2 PL3 was able to convert the CN= part of the SNC Name into an SPN, was my mistake. In addition SNC Client Encryption starting from Version 1 SP1 PL1 does this also.. just to make this clear
    Thread closed hope this helps someone

  • Employee Data in Dev Client

    We did a client copy from Prod to Dev. Now the HR data is in Dev client. Dev client use to be the playground for our IT staffs to do development and testing with SAP_ALL access.
    Do you think it is a risk and we should remove the SAP_ALL from IT staffs?
    Please share how your manage this in your organisation. TQ.

    Hi
    If you think k in the near future some of your processes will be moved to production and you r not 100% live on the producton system at present than no need to deleate the data only deleate the data related to the salaries like IT- 0008, 0014, 0015, 0045 etc payroll infotypes data because all this is a sensitive and confidential information.
    This is so because in near future you need to provide some test cases or test data to user. Or user have to create the new one.

  • IDES and other Clients in one SAP ERP 2005 System

    Hello everybody,
    within a project for my master thesis i have to set up an SAP ERP 2005 System. This system should contain at least three clients. One of them should be the IDES client. Another client should be set up with an existing template. The third client should represent a smal company or at least i should set up some example process from the company (there is no need to map the whole company in the system). These processes should be realized with the SAP standard processes and they should just show how to map easy processes to SAP ERP. Neither the second nor the third client need to run in a productive environment, everything is just for training and testing.
    My main Questions are:
    I've already set up the SAP ERP 2005 System but without IDES. Can I still integrate the IDES Content or do i have to reinstall the whole System with a complete IDES Installation?
    Can I implement the second and third client in the same ERP System (where the IDES client is) or do i need different Systems for it? Even if there is no productive use for the clients we would like to have a Development and a Quality Landscape. Is this possible with the IDES client? Actually I have two fast machines for this purpose - one for quality and one for development.
    I would be very grateful for any hints.
    Thanks a lot.
    Regards,
    Martin

    Hi,
    You can use SAP IDES as Dev and Quailty.There is no diffrence in full sap or IDES .In IDES we have some pree configure Clients and full Ecc we have three client 000,001 and 066.
    So you can use SAP IDES as DEV.
    Your Question :I've already set up the SAP ERP 2005 System but without IDES. Can I still integrate the IDES Content or do i have to reinstall the whole System with a complete IDES Installation?
    Ans : you install diffrent mechine.We do't use any content.Do reinstall
    Thanks

  • BI Dev client inactive & DSO activation problem

    Hi SAP Experts,
                      Am facing some problems in DSO activation. Firstly the Business content DSO was not activating .So I had to activate the Datasources on the R/3. There were no errors in the job log but the DSO was still inactive. On trying to manually activate it , its stated that the BI Dev client was inactive. So I went to the Source Sytems tab, activated the BI client but it failed showing the following error messages:
    1.EDI:Partner profile not available-> A partner profile could not be found with the following key:/IBDCLNT010/LS/
    This involves the key fields of the table EDPP1: PARNUM.PARTYP
    2.Entry in outbound table not found-> A partner profile could not be found with the following key:/IBDCLNT010/LS/RSRQST///
    This involves the key fields of the table EDP13:RCVPRN,RCVPRN,RCVPFC
    3.Entry in inbound table not found........LS/RSINFO :
    4.Similar to error 3 :...../LS/RSSEND
    5.Destination IBDCLNT010 has incorrect Unicode settings,adjust it to destination:
    The unicode settings do not match the source systems.Conversion errors might occur during data transfer.Adjust the destination accordingly.
    Has anybody seen this error log before. If so please do let me know your valuable suggestions.
    Thanks for taking the time to read this technical concern
    Edited by: Prathibha Pillai on Jul 29, 2008 7:58 AM

    Hi,
    As of 1-4 error messages.
    You must define in partner profiles (ts WE20) the message type RSRQST as outbound on BI side and inbound on R/3 side, the message types RSINFO, RSSEND as inbound on BI side and outbound on R/3 side.

  • Bluetooth simulation between J2SE server and J2ME client

    hi there,
    I have a working bluetooth client/server application (using BlueCove), with the server on a PC (the PC has bluetooth hardware) and the client on a mobile telephone.
    I wish to move the application to a bluetooth simulated environment, however.
    To simulate bluetooth between 2 mobiles, I could open 2 instances of the WTK simulator and the mobiles will find each other -- but this doesn't meet my needs. I wish to simulate the bluetooth environment between a J2SE server and a J2ME client.
    Can I do this using the wireless toolkit? Does anyone have other ideas?
    thanks,
    Manoj

    OK - I have the solution.
    My PC (server) code used BlueCove to talk to the bluetooth stack. The trick is to use Sun's own KVM packages. This creates a virtual bluetooth device on your machine, shared by the WTK emulator.
    Here's the server code:
    package com.encube;
    import java.awt.BorderLayout;
    import java.io.InputStream;
    import javax.microedition.io.Connector;
    import javax.microedition.io.StreamConnection;
    import javax.microedition.io.StreamConnectionNotifier;
    import javax.swing.JFrame;
    import javax.swing.JList;
    import javax.swing.JScrollPane;
    import javax.swing.JTextArea;
    import com.sun.kvem.bluetooth.BluetoothStateException;
    import com.sun.kvem.bluetooth.DiscoveryAgent;
    import com.sun.kvem.bluetooth.LocalDevice;
    public class Server {
         public static final String UUID_STRING = "A781FDBA229B486A8C21CEBD00000000";
         public static final String SERVICE_NAME = "BTCHATSVR";
         private StreamConnectionNotifier server;
         JFrame jframe;
         JTextArea textArea;
         public static void main(String[] args) {
              Server svr = new Server();
              svr.doWork();
         public void doWork() {
              this.jframe = new JFrame("BT Server");
              this.jframe.setLayout(new BorderLayout());
              this.textArea = new JTextArea(6, 20);
              JScrollPane jsp = new JScrollPane(this.textArea);
              this.jframe.add(jsp, BorderLayout.CENTER);
              this.jframe.pack();
              this.jframe.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
              this.jframe.setVisible(true);
              startServer();
         public void logMessage(String message) {
              this.textArea.setText(this.textArea.getText() + message + "\n");
              this.textArea.setCaretPosition(this.textArea.getText().length());
         public void startServer() {
              LocalDevice local;
              try {
                   local = LocalDevice.getLocalDevice();
                   local.setDiscoverable(DiscoveryAgent.GIAC);
                   this.logMessage("max of "
                             + LocalDevice
                                       .getProperty("bluetooth.connected.devices.max")
                             + " connection(s) supported");
                   String url = "btspp://localhost:" + UUID_STRING + ";name="
                             + SERVICE_NAME;
                   server = (StreamConnectionNotifier) Connector.open(url);
                   this.logMessage("waiting for connection...");
                   StreamConnection conn = server.acceptAndOpen();
                   this.logMessage("connection opened");
                   InputStream is = conn.openInputStream();
                   byte buffer[] = new byte[1000];
                   while (true) {
                        int numChars = is.read(buffer);
                        String s = new String(buffer);
                        logMessage("received from mobile phone: " + s.substring(0, numChars));
              } catch (Exception e) {
                   this.logMessage(e.getMessage());
    }You need to include the location of WTK as the kvem.home define. If its installed in c:\wtk22 (the default), start the server with the parameter -Dkvem.home="c:\wtk22". You also need to include these 3 libraries:
    c:\wtk22\wtklib\gcf-op.jar
    c:\wtk22\wtklib\kenv.zip
    c:\wtk22\wtklib\kvem.jar
    That's it for the server. My code of the sample client (the mobile phone, running in the WTK emulator) is messy (sorry about that -- still cleaning it up)!

    ...and that's it. Start the server, then the client (all on the same machine) and you've simulated bluetooth between the 2.
    To get the server working with a real mobile, you'll need to use the BlueCove library instead of the 3 WTK jars (and can remove the kvem.home directive as well). The rest of the code should remain the same (haven't quite tested that yet!).

  • Process for separate Prod and Dev enviroments

    apologies for the newbie question....currently I have 1 SSAS instance with Cube , measure and dimensions and DB which is Prod and Dev at the same time (most likely Dev with
    no Prod).
    Now when business users started using Cubes, I'd need to add Prod instance and separate Prod and Dev.
    what 'd be the best approach?
    1 - should I just copy and reuse the latest version of SSAS project in Visual studio, and reuse this project as PROD and have another Project as DEV?
    2. how do I apply Dev changes to Prod?
    3. re backup - is it enough to backup VS (Visual studio) project/solution definitions?

    Ideally you need to have two instances i.e DEV and PROD. Now since you have a server which client is already using, you need to create another instance wherein you can install SSAS services. If you want to extract the structure of your cube then you can
    use Import option. Once you get your cube structure and database on another new server you can use that as a DEV or PROD as per your convenience.
    http://aniruddhathengadi.blogspot.com/2011/09/create-analysis-services-project-based.html
    Another question is how to deploy changes;
    So if you are doing any development on DEV server and you want that to deploy on PROD server then you can extract the cube XMLA from DEV server cube copy and deploy that on PROD server. You need to process cube once you deploy your XMLA on PROD. 
    There are some other options of deployment available which you can check.

  • BW Sand Box and Dev on single Server

    Hi friends,
    Is there any issues, if the Sand Box and Dev server on single System with different client ids for BW (NW2004s BI7.0)?

    No issues as long as you partition the server with the 2 systems

  • Solman and JDI !!!

    Hi All,
    <b>Solution Manager:</b>The SAP Solution Manager supports you throughout the entire lifecycle of your solutions, from the Business Blueprint thru configuration to production operation. It provides central access to tools methods and preconfigured content, that you can use during the evaluation, implementation, and productive operation of your systems.
    whereas
    <b>Java Development Infrastructure:</b>SAP NetWeaver Java Development Infrastructure (also named Development Infrastructure). It enhances the concept of an IDE by server-side services, which centrally provides the development teams with a consistent development environment and supports the software development during the entire life cycle of a product(Dev->QA->Prod).
    can we correlate and establish a linkage between
    Solman and JDI if so what points we you will consider.
    Your inputs will be highly appreciated....
    Regards,
    RK

    Hi Venkat,
    good question.
    Short answer is: the Solution Manager is a tool to ORGANIZE changes in a System Landscape, the NWDI is the tool to PERFORM the task for Java Development.
    So both tools are meant for the same task, but on different layers. The Solution Manager uses the NWDI to perform Java Development and Modification. Besides, the Solution Manager is using a few more tools to perform the tasks, that are described by it (e.g. Software Lifecycle Manager, TMS, ...).
    Have a look at the <a href="https://websmp206.sap-ag.de/instguidesnw2004s">Installation Guides for NW2004s</a> --> Installation

  • LabVIEW license for terminal servers and thin clients (e.g. LTSP)

    Does NI plan to provide a license agreement for terminal servers and thin
    clients?
    I've been told to purchase a multi-seat license. That doesn't make much
    sense since the thin clients won't be accessing DAQ hardware. They're
    just used for developing the LV source.
    Comments/suggestions?

    Yes, this is a very good point. Quite a unique situation when compared to
    text based languages. Keep in mind I certainly don't mind paying for that
    but I see no need to pay for much of the other features - like running it.
    This is certainly one of the other features you pay for with LV. Since
    we never plan to run the app on the thin client, why pay for that
    feature?
    What we do is crank out source code on the thin clients. We then send the
    source code to this wireless mobile DAQ station running WindowsXP. From
    there we can roll it up to our clients' target systems. That machine is
    used for debugging then compilin
    g so it has its own LV Prof Dev license
    installed on it. Also, it can be operated locally or remotely via remote
    desktop (one user at a time).
    I know it may sound strange but it works great. And as the NI Software
    License Agreement(NISLA) specifies, we have separate licenses on all
    machines that load LV into local memory. The thin clients load nothing
    into local memory, hence no need for a separate license.
    > I express myself clearly in the hope of guidance. I am a one man shop
    Yes, this is understandable. Installing one license on multiple machines
    is a big no-no. However, that is not what I'm trying to do. Take a peek
    at the "Grant of License" and "Single Seat License" sections of the NISLA.
    > You say "That doesn't make much sense since ..." One of my clients has a
    Ha! How about this scenario: As wireless hardware (bluetooth, wifi)
    becomes more common, perhaps NI will have a peer scanner on all PCs with
    LV installed. That way if you get within 100 feet of a P
    C with the same
    LV serial number, you get locked out and it sends a small message to the
    NI batcave.
    Thanks for the response. I'm hoping NI chimes in soon.

  • Difference between Golden Client and Master Client

    Dear,
    What is the Difference between Golden Client and Master Client?
    Thanx & Regards,
    Mohammad Nabi,
    [email protected]

    Golden Client is similar or is the the same as Development Client, which should not be used for testing.
    Master Client ???
    Note on SAP Landscape:
    Landscape is like a server system or like a layout of the servers or some may even call it the architecture of the server’s viz. SAP is divided into three different landscape DEV, QAS and PROD.
    -  DEV would have multiple clients for ex: 190- Sandbox, 100- Golden, 180- Unit Test.
    -  QAS may again have multiple clients for ex: 300- Integration Test, 700 to 710 Training.
    -  PROD may have something like a 200 Production.
    These names and numbers are the implementer's discreet on how they want it or they have been using in their previous implementations or how is the client's business scenario. 
    Now whatever you do in the Sandbox doesn't affect the other servers or clients. Whenever you think you are satisfied with your configuration and you think you can use it moving forward, you RE-DO it in the golden client (remember, this is a very neat and clean client and you cannot use it for rough usage). As you re-do everything that you had thought was important and usable, you get a transport request pop up upon saving every time. You save it under a transport request and give your description to it. Thus the configuration is transported to the Unit Test client (180 in this example). 
    You don't run any transaction or even use the SAP Easy Access screen on the 100 (golden) client. This is a configuration only client. Now upon a successful transport by the Basis guy, you have all the configuration in the Testing client, just as it is in the Golden client. The configuration remains in sync between these two clients. 
    But in the Testing client you can not even access SPRO  (Display IMG) screen. It's a transaction only client where you perform the unit test. Upon a satisfactory unit test, you move the good configuration to the next SERVER (DEV). The incorrect or unsatisfactory configuration is corrected in Golden (may again as well be practised in the sandbox prior to Golden) and accordingly transported back to 180 (Unit Test) until the unit test affected by that particular config is satisfactory. 
    The Golden client remains the 'database' (if you wanna call it that) or you may rather call it the 'ultimate' reference client for all the good, complete and final configuration that is being used in the implementation.
    In summary:
    Landscape : is the arrangement for the servers
    IDES : is purely for education purpose and is NOT INCLUDED in the landscape.
    DEVELOPMENT ---> QUALITY -
    > PRODUCTION
    DEVELOPMENT : is where the the consultants do the customization as per the company's requirement.
    QUALITY : is where the core team members and other members test the customization.
    PRODUCTION : is where the live data of the company is recorded.
    A request will flow from Dev->Qual->Prod and not backwards.
    1. Sandbox server: In the initial stages of any implementation project, You are given a sandbox server where you do all the configuration/customization as per the companies business process.
    2. Development Server: - Once the BBP gets signed off, the configuration is done is development server and saved in workbench requests, to be transported to Production server.
    3. Production Server: This is the last/ most refined client where the user will work after project GO LIVE. Any changes/ new development is done is development client and the request is transported to production.
    These three are landscape of any Company. They organized their office in these three way. Developer develops the program in Development server and then transport it to test server. In testing server tester check/test the program and then transport it to Production Server. Later it will deploy to client from production server.
    Presentaion Server- Where SAP GUI has.
    Application Server - Where SAP Installed.
    Database Server - Where Database installed.
