SAP Solution Manager Adapter for SAP Quality Center by HP (ST-QCA)

Hello Folks,
I am configuring Solution Manager, and the current activity asks to download to add-ons that I can't find in the Marketplace - they are required to activate Solution Manager Enhancements:
SAP Solution Manager Adapter for SAP Quality Center by HP (software component: ST-QCA)
SAP Support Enablement package (software component: ST-SEP)
Does anyone know where to get those components?
Thanks a lot,
Marco

Hi Ravindra babu/ Murali:
I have one very quick doubt and would be really glad if you can help clarify.
As per documentation from SAP and also IMG screens etc. it seems like 'a project' in SolMan will hand-shake with 'a project' in QC.
Can I therefore assume that if there is only one instance of SolMan (productive) and one QC server alone (again, productive), any number of trials I carry out between SolMan project and QC project will not spill over into other projects in these two systems and thus have no impact whatsoever at server level.
The reason for my asking this - in my project, Testing has started using QC in a standalone mode already. We have just one server. If I have to carry out any tests/ demo between SolMan and QC, it shouldn't impact other 'standalone' projects being done in QC.

Srini

Solution Manager Adapter for QC

Hi fellow members,
My query is regarding Solman adapter for QC. I could not locate how to acquire it? I could not get any link on service.sap.com.
If anyone has information regarding how to get this adapter, please do share with me.
Thanks & Best Regards,
Tauseef

Hi Tauseef,
Following are the steps that I have gathered, based on various files available on this subject in service.sap.com
(1) Buy the Adapter software from SAP
(2) Download Set Up documents provided by SAP:
(a) [Configuration Guide SAP adapter for SAP Quality Center by HP|https://websmp205.sap-ag.de/~sapdownload/011000358700000612662007E/Adapter_Configuration_.pdf]
(b) Master Guide SAP adapter for SAP Quality Center by HP|https://websmp205.sap-ag.de/~sapdownload/011000358700000612672007E/Adapter_Master_Guide.pdf]
(3) Identify & Download SAP Notes relevant for this; a few I could come across are:
Note 1109650 - SAP Solution Manager 4.0 Extension Add-Ons
Note 1059350 - Installing SAP Adapter for SAP Quality Center by HP
Note 903274 - Changes to Solution Manager IMG 7.0 after SP01
Note 834534 - SAP Solution Manager roles in Release 7.0
(4) Confirm if the QC version you have and the SAP SolMan version are compatible
SAP Solution Manager 4.0 Service Pack 12 with note ID 1065377 or later
HP Quality Center 9.2 Patch 7 or later
if the Patch is any less in QC, it's available on installation CD anywa that comes along with Adapter, I learn. So, no worries.
(5) Download HP Enterprise Integration module 2.0 Patch 1 for SAP applications by following [this |http://update.external.hp.com/qualitycenter/qc90/sap/enterprise_integration/index.html]link
(6) Obtain your existing QC license from HP, to activate its usage for this Adapter functionality too. For this, send existing SAP Quality Center by HP license file and ask for the addition HP Enterprise Integration for SAP. The license file will then be returned to you with the flag turned on. You can achieve this by following [this|https://webware.hp.com/welcome.asp] link
If your existing QC license was bought not from HP directly but via SAP, you can contact your Account Manager in SAP and enquire how to get this done. I am not sure myself.
...to be continued.

Solution Manager Adapter for HP QC (12)

Hi,
As you know, HP has recently launched the version 12 of HP QC.
We plan to use Solution Manager (7.1) in combination with HP QC (12).
The only version of Solution Manager Adapter for HP QC I can find on SAP Market place is ST-QCA 100.
Do you know if there is a newer version of Solution Manager Adapter for HP QC (12) or is it independent of QC version?
Thanks for your help.
Regards.

Hi Priya,
It is independent of QC Version. I recently integrated ALM 11.52 with Solution Manager SP10 using ST QCA 100 and it worked ust fine. Just make sure with SAP that they support the ALM 12 officially, there might be some changes in ALM 12 which *might* give some problems. SAP as of now did not list ALM 12 in their compatibility matrix;
I hope they are using the same Enterprise Integration adapter in ALM 12 that they used in 11.52. If so it should work. Give it a try !
Regards,
Vivek

Adding existing RWD uPerform documents using SAP Solution Manager Adapter?

Note# 1468552
Cannot add existing RWD uPerform documents using the SAP Solution Manager Adapter.
Currently, a user can only create a new document with the Solution Manager Adapter; there is no
ability to add existing uPerform documents that have already been created.
RWD has submitted an enhancement to SAP requesting this functionality.
Hi All,
Has there has been any update on the functionality to add existing RWD uPerform documents to Solution Manager? I have found a note from 2010 stating that this functionality has been submitted as a enhancement. My question is, has this feature been implemented yet? If not, does anyone have any suggested work-arounds for this issue?
Thanks in advance!
Stephanie

Hi Stephanie,
I can't find much information on this topic.
You could create a message in component SV-SMG-SPA.

Records Management - Adapter for UCM

Hi there,
I am having troubles understanding how the Records Management Adapter for UCM works:
1. I have installed URM on a separate instance and have defined retention categories there.
2. I installed the Adapter on a UCM instance and pointed it to the URM instance.
3. It copied the categories over BUT
4. Only those categories that allow for non-record items show up in the LifeCycle field as the view of the field does filter out all other categories.
So I have not figured out how I can make a content item a record. It that possible at all. Or does this set up of
- one URM instance and
- a second UCM + Adapter instance
only support lifecycle management?

Hi There;
I am having troubles with the Records Management Adapter for UCM too. Also i am having troubles to defined retention categories and configure the retention schedules too. The documentation is not helping in anything about this troubles. Does anyone knows some better documentations about that?? Thanks a lot!!

EP 7 systems in Solution Manager 7 for EWA activation

Dear Expert,
Greetings from Partha.
I need to include our EP 7 systems in Solution Manager 7 for EWA activation. Current lanscape scenario
Solution Manger 7.00 Installed
EP 7.00 Installed
No central SLD configured and all the system have local SLD.
1. As per the installtion guide & SAP notes we need to install
a> SM Diagnostics Agent & Wilo Introscope in Solution Manager (manging system).
b> Diagnostics Agent in every manged system(s).
For managing system we can download Diagnostics Agent installation DVDs from SAP Service Marketplace
at: http://service.sap.com/swdc --> Download --> SAP Support Packages --> Entry by Application Group
--> SAP Technology Components --> SAP SOLUTION MANAGER --> SAP SOLUTION MANAGER 7.0
--> Entry by Component --> Agents for Managed systems --> DIAGNOSTICS AGENT 7.11
--> <choose operating system of managed>
Our Solution Manager 7 is already installed and @SPS 17. My question is
1. Can we use the same file for SMD installtion in Solution Manger or we need to download it from some other area ?
If it is different then kindly let me know what are the DVDs to be downloaded and from where?
2. In our Managed System SMD installtion we have decided for
--> Installation Strategy as Direct Solution Manager Registration
But what strategy we should take for SMD installation on Sol Man 7 that is
Local SLD (wrt Sol Man) Registration or Direct Solution Manager Registration
3. What is the need for the SAP Host Agent Installattion ? Is it mandatory ?
Help will be appreciated.
Regards,
Partha

Check the pdf attached in note 1234387 - Inst. 7.1 EhP1 - Diagnostics Agent installation
If you have SP17, you must follow note 1357812 and install Diagnostics Agent 7.01 SR1
2. In our Managed System SMD installtion we have decided for
--> Installation Strategy as Direct Solution Manager Registration
But what strategy we should take for SMD installation on Sol Man 7 that is
Local SLD (wrt Sol Man) Registration or Direct Solution Manager Registration
It doesn't matter what strategy you'll decide. You could decide Direct Solution Manager registration
3. What is the need for the SAP Host Agent Installattion ? Is it mandatory ?
As you have solution Manager SP17, you can't install Saphostagent 7.11 and for this reason you can't use SAphostagent.
Agent 7.01 => No Saphostagent
Agent 7.11 => Must install saphostagent
Agent 7.20 => Already have SAPhostagent installed

Solution Manager Key for Java AS

I'm new to SAP Netweaver so maybe this question has been answered before.
I need to install SAP Netweaver AS Java for development/QA purposes. I understand that I need also Solution manager key for installation so I installed another Solution Manager System.
When I enter to Solution Manager http://<server>:50000 I get "System Landscape Directory is not accessible. Only local system can be administered". What does it mean? I remember I chose to create local SLD.
I saw also in couple of threads the following:
Just go to transaction SMSY transaction of solman and locate the system for which you need to generate Solman Key and just right clilck on that system...You will find the option of Generating Solution Manager Key....
I don't have such an option when I enter to Solution Manager.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Haim Beyhan

Is there North Bound Interface / API from SAP Solution Manager available for 3rd party integration?
i. The list of the modules that are being managed by SAP Solution Manager(s)
ii. The performance metrics of those modules/components at the high level
iii. The information about Early Watch Alerts (or situations to watch for)
2)
Is there a full SNMP interface for getting the above information from SAP Solution Manager?
3)
Is that understanding that SAP has SNMP support for forwarding alerts to a 3rd party system, correct?
4)
Does SAP has both free and licensed? If yes then what are the advantages of licensed over the open/free version?

Solution Manager prepared for the Remote Service Delivery?

In preparation of GoingLive Session, we received a mail with some questions. Among them the following:
Is your Solution Manager prepared for the Remote Service Delivery? Yes/No
Is the solution transferred to SAP?: Yes/No
What does the first question mean? what should be done to prepare the Solman for session delivery?
How do I check if the solution is transferred to SAP?
Thanks a lot,
    Dino

Hello Dino,
The SAP Solution Manager is a platform for the delivery of services for the following areas:
●     Risk minimization
●     Optimization of SAP solutions
●     Knowledge transfer
Services in the SAP Solution Manager are services which help you to monitor and optimize the performance and availibility of your system landscapes and minimize your system operation risks.
You can have the support services performed by SAP or perform them yourself:
●     Remote Services
SAP experts deliver this service type via a remote connection (SAP Safeguarding Services, e.g. SAP GoingLive Check).
For checking whether solution manager is prepared for remote service delivery u need to check the following.
Prerequisites
You have:
●     created a solution.
●     set-up a connection to the SAP Service Marketplace (Explorer).
Procedure
       1.      Choose the transaction SOLUTION_MANAGER.
       2.      Choose Delivery of SAP Services ® Service Plan, in Operations.
       3.      Choose Order Service from SAP.
You go to the Service Catalog.
       4.      Choose the link to the service.
The system goes to the catalog entry of the service, in the SAP Service Marketplace.
       5.      Follow the procedure described in the SAP Service Marketplace.
=============================================
Solution transfered to SAP means that the u have done the configuration, testing and validation of the SAP system components and then transfered this to the satellite systems connected to Solman. Please note that solman is the central point of access for supporting implementation activities and the satellite systems are SAP systems comnected to solman in the landscape.
Hope this helps. Please assign points and let me know if u need anything specific.

How is solution manager useful for performance monitoring

Hi,
I want to check expensive sql statements in production and quality systems.How can solution manager be useful for this.
It would be great if anyone can provide me some documentation on this

Hi,
In Solution Manager, there is an Early Watch Analysis report which is generated and which has section in the report ' Performance Indicator' in that section you will get 2 things :
1. Top 10 Transaction codes which has huge response times.
2. Top 10 program which has huge response times.
and after that you also get the list of expensive SQL statement in the report and then you can just optimize the queries and improve system performance.

Solution Manager - WF for Document Management

Hi all,
I wonder if any of you have experience with developing workflows in Solution Manager?
I basically need to trigger a simple workflow when there is a change of status in a document stored in the Solution Manager (tcode SOLAR01, Proj. Document tab).
I know that object type SOLMANDOC is available and I know that event signature_process_start is published when the user signs the document. I am not sure how the event gets published - perhaps it is hard coded somewhere, I am just not sure. Any ideas how I can find out? Perhaps I can enhance the code to publish other events?
I have posted the question in Solution Manager forum, but haven't had much luck with it yet.
Thanks in advance for any help you might provide.
Cheers,
Cristiana

Hi,
So far this is what we have done.
on SWE2 we have generated the following triggering event:
    object category: Bor obj type
   obj type: solmandoc
   Event: Signature_process_start
   Receiver type: {defined Workflow}
Linkage settings
   Receiver call: Function module
Receiver FM: SWW_WI_CREATE_VIA_EVENT_IBF
These settings would trigger your Workflow.
You should be able to create the task for your workflow based on each of the methods on the BOR object.
Currently we are using the SIGN method since it allows you to both Review and sign the document.
Current Challenges: we are only allowed to sign the document twice. Once when created and once when reviewed.
We are currently working with SAP in order to allow multiple signature process.

Is Solution Manager required for ECC 6.0 upgrade?

We will upgrade our system from 4.7 to ECC 6.0. Is Solution Manager a required tool in ECC 6.0? My understanding is Solution Manager has to be run on a different server, ie. we will have to buy a new server. We have a small SAP implementation with only FI & CO modules, so we are trying to cut our costs if we could. Can anybody share their experience? Thanks for any input.

In an Upgrade , Solution Manager is required for Upgrade Keys and downloading the support packs . Now a days to download the support packs you have to approve it in Solution Manager otherwise it won't show up in your download basket.
May be SAP can provide you the keys & approve the SPs ( they used to do that before ) , in that case it isn't required.
You can also manage your upgrade project in Solman . Sooner or later you need to install solution manager. it's a nice system.Many good features like central monitoring, early watch alert etc etc ...
Thanks
