Solution Manager 4.0 - S-user configuration?

Dear community.
I've got a little problem while configure our solution manager 4.0 system.
The satelite systems are configured and implemented and now I want to configure the Service Connections. So that I can open the Service Connections for sap support out of the solution manager.
For that work I have to configure a s-user in the transaction "dswp -> edit -> global settings -> connection to sap" to connect to the sap service market place and to update the systems data.
My problem is that i found anywhere a description what I need for a kind of user and which permissions he should have.
Further the s-users are personlized. When I create a s-user for the solution manager, it shouldn't have a relation to a real person, because it is just for the system. What can i do in that case, when I have to create the user?
I hope you can understand my problem and give me a tipp to resolve it.
kind regards
C. Erdmann

Dear Yoshitaka,
thank you for your quick ansswer.
To your listet points:
1) To use the service connection out of the solution manager first of all there has to set a user under the path "dswp -> edit -> global settings -> connection to sap" to download the system definitions out of the service marketplace. This user should only be used for the sap solution manager.
2) In my point 1) starts the problem that I don't know which permissions I've give to the S-user in the SAP Service Marketplace so that the solution manager can start to download the system definitions out of the service marketplace.
3) The s-user which I insert in the solution manager should be a special user with no name of a real person. When I create a new User in the service market place I'v got to write down the firstname, lastname and e.g. the position of the person which should get the new s-user. In my case the person which should get the s-user isn't a "real" person, because it is the sap solution manager. So i havnt't a real name position and so on, to create the s-user. Do you now understand what I mean? Of course, a possible solution is to invent a name for the sap solution manager, but that's not what i want. When SAP says that I should insert a s-user in the solution manager they should document what it should be for a user and which permissions he should have.
I searched in all documentations but I found any solution for my problem.
So, if you now understand my problem please answer if you have a solution for me.
Many thanks.
Michael

  • Sap Solution Manager 7.1 SP11 Basic Configuration

    Hi Experts,
    I am in fresh installation for Sap Solution Manager 7.1 SP11. At Basis Configuartion Phase in step " Configure CA Introscope".
    I have successfully installed, but it shows the following message: " Offline - The EM Connection cannot be established (caused by :com.sap.smd.introscope.em.IntroscopeException: java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException_) "
    Need suggestions how to proceed from here.
    thanks

    Raja,
    I assume you're using Linux/UNIX.
    Here's the solution. It worked for me.
    In /usr/sap/ccms/apmintroscope/config/users.xml, update the Guest password with this MD5 hash: c4582df82299e0581a9fc6bb34c53
    In user management screen of "Configure CA Introscope", choose "Guest" as connection user with password "guest12" (without quotation marks)
    If it's still not working, then delete the EM and re-install the introscope.
    Go to expert mode -> Delete references -> Remove the line
    Delete folder /usr/sap/ccms/apmintroscope
    Install introscope and management modules againdon't forget to re-set the permission for diagnostic agent user
    Go back to solman_setup "Configure CA Introscope" and do import CA again
    Save, you'll have a green status

  • Solution Manager 7.1 upgrade or configuration in Solman 7.0 EHP1

    Hi,
    We have a Solution Manager 7.0 EhP1 and there is a project now to configure several functionalities on it such as Charm and Services desk among others.  We have the option of configuring all the functionalities in SOlman 7.0 EHP1 or upgrading to 7.1 and then configure the functionalities in the new version.
    I would like to know if anybody has implemented an upgrade of Solman 7.0 EHP1 to Solman 7.1 with some functionalities implemented.
    I would like as well if in the fact the the Solman 7.0 EHP1 has several functionalities implemented complicates the upgrade to Solman 7.1. The fact that the upgrade is more complicated due to all the functionalities configured, would be important factor  to upgrade to 7.1 instead configure it in 7.0 EHP1.
    Any information about this would be appreciated.
    Many thanks in advance!
    Raquel

    Newer functionality and more holistically speaking, an ALM Tool, arguably one of the best in the market should be more than enough to take you to 7.1
    if all you have is EWA, there is no major risk associated, the new 7.1 has new transaction types for ChaRM and Service Desk, the functionalities of which are better rounded and can support more enterprise wide processes.
    Graphical Business Blueprint tool, my favorite feature in 7.1 and enhanced features in Project Implementation tools will only help you manage your implementations/support projects better.
    If all you have is EWA, I have half a mind to ask you to do a fresh install, and not bother with the upgrade. Saves you time and lot of effort as well.

    Hi,
    As far as we could see, you're facing an authorization issue. To solve
    that...
    Can you check that the user executing the task (SOLMAN, i suppose) is
    assigned the authorization - you can run an authorization trace using
    transaction ST01 (check only the authorization box) and reproduce the
    issue. The resulting trace should show which authorization failed. Once
    this is established the necessary authority can be assigned to the user.
    Thanks,
    Regards

  • Configuration Guide Job Scheduling Management with SAP Solution Manager

    Dear Gurus
    Could you please help me with the configuration guide of the Job Scheduling Management with SAP Solution Manager
    Best Regards

    Hello Luis,
    the configuration activities can be accessed via the "Implementatiopn Guide" by calling transaction SPRO in your SAP Solution Manager system.
    In SPRO navigate to -> SAP Solution Manager -> Scenario-Specific Settings -> Job Scheduling Management -> Standard Configuration and execute the following two activities.
    1. Activate Solution Manager Services
    2. Set Up Work Center for Job Scheduling Management
    Make sure that your user has role SAP_SM_SCHEDULER_EXE (or_ADMIN) assigned.
    Afterwards you should be able to access the Job Management Work Center and to create Job Documentation or to import Jobs from a Managed System into new Job Documentations.

  • How to maintain a common document in solution manager

    Gurus ,
    we are in the process of configuring service desk . One major type of support message we receive is user creation /modification .
    currently we maintain these details in an common  excel sheet .  if a new  requirement is made they take the latest modified excel sheet and mark the changes in them .
    But now what we need in , we need to maintain this document is solution manager server .
    and the users can access the document , make changes , save it and upload it back to the server .
    any of you have any suggestions on implementing the same

    Hello Susin,
    User Creation / Deletion / Modification is a Change in the system. It cannot be handled via a standard central document like a Excel on a datshare.
    Solution Manager is not a content repository to be used for storing such documents. There is no way that you can acheive it as a standard process.
    Probably what you can do is as follows :
    - Create a table structure in Solution Manager and assign it colums as needed.
    - Then write a ABAP Code to access and maintain this table Structure.
    - Assign a transaction code to the ABAP Code so that it can be accessed by different users.
    I hope that the reply helps.

  • Solution Manager 4.0 Implementation Tools Experience Information

    Hi,
    We are looking at implementing the Blueprint, Configuration and Test Manager implementation tools for SM 4.0 to assist with our ERP2005 upgrade from 4.6C.
    We have gone through pretty much everything that is available online for SM in SAP Service Marketplace and have taken SM training SMI310. We are at the next step of proceeding with the implementation.
    I am looking for <b>anyone who has gone through an SM implementation</b> and can help with documented standards, templates and defined processes and user roles for Solution Manager implementation of the Blueprint, Configuration and Test Manager implementation tools.
    Anything that can give us a better understanding and a head start to our SM implementation would be appreciated.

    Hi
    To answer some of your questions:
    Keywords: We have used keyword "In scope" on structure nodes (processes, process steps) to allow the consultants to add relevant processes and documentation which is not relevant for the current project but must likely will be later. The keyword can then be used as a filter when generating blueprint.
    Furthermore we have used keywords related to prototypes - so it is easy to apply a filter to show eg. which scenarios/processes are included in prototype1, prototype2 and so on,
    We have a long list of documentation types, based on the best practice templates. Too many to list here.
    Solution manager keeps track of document versions (history), so we use the standard status codes: "in process", when worked on. "review", when submittet to approval and "released" when finished.
    There is no technical difference between doing config from SM vs in dev system  - as you basically access the img. But for people used to workíng in Dev system directly, it is a quite new way to work. And there are some configuration items not in the IMG - which then cannot be linked into SM.
    IMG objects will appear in several processes, and one option is to link in the same img objects in several processes, and then place the documentation along with the objects in a way where the consultant use the "where used" function on img objects to check if it has already been used elsewhere, and then create a link to the documentation there, and work in the same document. But in several cases they would have to start a new document, if it is not logical to add to other documents containing info on how the img object is configured.
    You can use the standard roles for application consultant and project manager - they should cover implementation needs.
    Hope some of this information is useful
    Regards

  • Maintenance Optimizer in Solution Manager 3.2

    We are experiencing the sheer joy that Solution Manager is, while trying to configure the Maintenance Optimizer.
    From the document MOPZ_Component32_vers4.pdf document that is for SP15 for SolMan 3.2, we are confused by this section on Page 6.
    "Your system administrator must have performed the following Customizing activities:
    &#56256;&#56440; Maintain User for Communication with SAP Service and Support
    &#56256;&#56440; Assign S-User for SAP Support Portal functionality or with the transaction AISUSER
    Your S-User must be assigned to the same customer or corporate number as
    the S-User which your administrator entered in the SAP-OSS RFC destination."
    We just don't understand the last sentence.  You enter an S-User in the SAP-OSS RFC destination in sm59??  Where??
    Currently in AISUER I have an entry, with my SAP User ID (eg. FRED) and my S-User ID in the 'Contact Person' column (e.g. 123456, my S000123456, shortened).
    We can access the Maintenance Optimizer, but packages are not visible there.  No error is reported.  I have the necessary Roles.  Are these the correct values?
    Our SAPOSS Rfc is functioning, as user OSS_RFC. What the document is trying to say about the relationship between this RFC and a service marketplace S-User is unclear.
    Any assistance appreciated.  Remember, SM 3.2!

    Hi,
    You can download this to desktop or you  can transfer same to server(/usr/sap/trans/EPS/in/)
    You have to uncar using SAPCAR.
    Also you can directly upload from front-end using spam/saint as well.
    Then apply the same using spam/saint.
    Let us know if you need any clarification.

  • Limit file type and size in Solution Manager

    Dear gurus,
    I'm writing an inquiry about the possibility of specifying file extension type and the size the user can upload to solution manager, for example in roadmap / configuration.
    I.e, we need to limit the user not to upload *.avi extension type, and limiting the size to 5MB.
    Thanks for help.
    Regards,

    Hi Bobby,
    Once you insert a file extension in table SADOCGENERIC,  after that, all documents with this file extension will be open and
    should be editable out-of-place with no edit restrictions. You'll just need to have a way to edit it in your computer.

  • Connection between Solution Manager Testing und Test Workbench

    Hello,
    I have Problems understanding the connection between the test organization in the solution manager and the test workbench in the corresponding sap system.
    The documentation says that the Solution Manager reuses the test workbench functionality. It is not clear for me how this connection works. In the solution manager you define test cases in the configuration of the project. When you create a test plan in the solution manager you can use the testcases of the project. But when you execute the testcases you do it in the corresponding sap system where the transaction of the test case is. Does this mean that the test cases und test plans that you create in the solution manager are transported to the target sap system? If this is true, when is the transport taking place?
    Thanks a lot!

    I think you are confused with solution manager and tools like QTP.
    The difference between solution manager and QTP/ECATTT is the eCATT or QTP are used for creating the test scripts or the test cases but solution manager is used for storing all types scripts centrally.
    It means say you have manual test scripts eCATT and Ext QTP scripts lying on the R/3 servers but from solution manager you can create a project comprises of all the scenario and linked test cases of various type.
    Now at a later time when you start testing a manager login to solution manager enter the test plan project name etc and can check what is the current status of the test
    1. how much testing is completed
    2. Who is the tester what is the test script where or on which testing took place etc
    you can check my weblog to knw how to manage and perform testing via solution manager.
