Solution Manager EHP 1 SP22 - DBA Cockpit Configuration Wizard

Hi,
When trying to "Configure DBA Cockpit" in Managed System Configuration ,I got the below error .
We are on Oracle 10.2.0.4.0 and Solution Manager SP22.
Database history :Not supported for this DB platform
Extractors activation :The DB performance warehouse is not available, thus the DB extractors were not activated
Please let me know if i need to perform any more additional steps.
Thanks in advance.....
Srini

"Database Performance Warehouse was not set up"
"Not supported for this DB platform"
For Oracle databases there is no support for Database Performance Warehouse in EHP1. With EHP2 the Oracle platform will be supported as well with some reports in the Solution Manager UI.
Basically the database performance warehouse is a project to collect and extract performance data to the SAP Solution Manager BI system. Once the data was loaded in to this BI you can use DBA Cockpit for detailed analysis. In EHP2 of SAP Solution Manager you will be able to also use the SAP Solution Manager UIs to analyze the database performance and workload.
If you are more interested in this feature you are very welcome to have a look at some articles available in SDN:
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/db6
For now you have full support for DB2 for LUW and MS SQL Server platforms and a more limited set of reports for SAP MaxDB and DB2/z.
I hope this clarifies your question.

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

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.

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

EWA on Non-ABAP System with Solution Manager EHP 1

Hi Experts,
We have recently updated our solution manager from SP Stack 16 to EHP1 (sp 18). we are now planning to set up EWA for non-abap components (EP 7.0). however, the only SAP note that i have been able to find is "976054 - Availability of EWA for Non ABAP components" but this is only limited up to SP 17. I have not been able to find any guides relating to EWA thru Solution Manager EHP1.
I would greatly appreciate if anyone can refer any documents or SAP notes that would enable setting up EWA for non-abap components thru Solution Manager EHP1.
We have also gone through the note 1332428, but we have'nt found it useful. We are still struggling to generate EWA report on Non-ABAP system.
Looking forward to your kind help.
Thanks and Regards,
Sarthak Syal

Hi Sarthak,
Good!!
Please do the following:
1) include the system in the Solution and scheduled the EWA session.Logical component should refer to the Non-ABAP System with no ABAP instance as relevant under the SID definition in SMSY-systems.
2) Is the Non -ABAP ( assuming its java) has the Software component defined and is mentioned as relevant under the SID with the component name and type.
3) Having said that SMD - Root cause Analysis functionality is configured-> check whether you are getting the Details for the Non-ABAP systems in the analysis Tabs of Root Cause Analysis.
This should be good to go. Wait for the session to get completed.
Thanks,
Jagan

Solution Manager EHP 1

Hello,
has anybody started looking into EHP1 for Solution Manager on iSeries?
I have started downloading the packages/DVDs, but I am wondering if I need the 7.01 Kernel. It seems that it is provided for all platforms except iSeries. And according to the OSS note for EHP1 I should use R3trans 7.01.
Thanks,
Ingrid

Hello Paul,
currently, following strategies for new Enhancement Package installations are supported for SAP on IBM i:
EhP1 for SAP NetWeaver 7.0
Start with 7.00 kernel in the SAP system, use of SAP EHP Installer 7.00
EhP4 for SAP ERP 6.0
Start with 7.00 kernel in the SAP system, use of SAP EHP Installer 7.00
EhP1 for SAP Solution Manager 7.0
Start with 7.01 kernel in the SAP system (as preparation step, no productive use), use of SAINT/JSPM
Elder Enhancement Packages for SAP ERP 6.0 (EhP1-EhP3) will still be applied with SAINT and the 7.00 kernel has to be kept.
Productive use of 7.01 kernels in 7.00 based SAP systems (from point of view of application components like SAP_BASIS) is not supported by SAP at all since this kernel has not been certified as downward compatible kernel (DCK). And of course, once an EHP has been installed you may not run this SAP system with a 7.00 kernel anymore.
At the moment, there is some delay providing necessary 7.00 patches to enable installation of EhP1 for Solution Manager 7.0. This is a known issue and we are working hard on it. It is planned to provide a suitable solution end of January 2009. With release of the patches please have a look at SAP note 1284805 and follow its instuctions carefully.

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.
The following SAP notes might be usefuly as well:
1054005 - FAQ on Job Scheduling Management
1117355 - Work Center roles

Dear Friends,
How to monitor all SAP Server through solution Manager?
Is it possible if yes then how? Please forward configuration and transaction also.
Please help me as early as possible..
Thanks,
Regards,
Sachin

Hi sachin,
You can monitor your sattilite systems through solution manager.
If you want to monitor systems in solution manager means you need to configure those systems in solution manager.
Before including the systems in solution manager we need to create a solution using tcode DSWP.
After that you can include the systems using tcode SMSY.
For configuring the systems we have lot of phases its very difficult to explain here.
Try to login to service.sap.com and help.sap.com find the helpfull guides.
i hope it will help you.

How to revert a report run in Solution Manager?

Hello All:
As per Note 1119150 - Solution Manager: EHP 3 product data missing, I ran this report RS_SMSY_PPMS_XML_UP_DOWNLOAD,
My bad, this was for Solution Manager 4, I ran this in Solution Manager 7.
Product Version got changed once I ran this report.
Is there any way to revert the changes done by this report?
Please let me know.
Thanks a lot for your time guys!!
Cheers,
-Sai

Hello Sai,
SAP Solution Manager release 4.0 and release 7.0 are one in the same.
There is a note that will confirm this assertion.
1122966 Maintenance Optimizer: Notes for Enhancement Packages
Indeed it is referenced in the footer of SAP Note 1119150
Note 1122966 States: SAP Solution Manager 4.0 is officially renamed on May 1st, 2008 and
becomes SAP Solution Manager 7.0.
Note 1119150 was released in 2007, so this was before the name change.
Since this note applies to the release and not to a a particular SP level, it is completely valid for Solution Manager 7.0 as 4.0/7.0 are interchangeble terms.
However the reason to run the report attached to the Note is because product version 'SAP ENH PACK 3 for SAP ERP 6.0' is missing. Is this what the product changed to, because if it did, then it is correct. What did the product version change to because you may find that you can now select the correct product, if it was missing before...which would be the only reason to have run the report.
If the product version was missing, its likely a matter of just going back in and changing the product to the newly downloaded one that was missing. If it wasn't missing, then the report should not have been run, as the reason for applying the note instructions did not apply, and you may need to involve SAP support to assist in a resolution.
My thoughts are since the note does apply to SAP Solution Manager 7.0, so does the attached report, and perhaps this has shuffled the product list, without moving the pointer correspondingly, so it is now pointing to the worng product. But I suspect now the correct product is in the drop down selection list. This is just a thought as to why the product changed.
Hope it helps to resolve.
Regards,
Paul
