Solution Manager for SAP BI

I have to use solution manager for an SAP BI/BW implementation. The BW client is currently in SAPERP 2005 (ECC 6.0). Is is possible to use solution manager in the same system or should the BI/BW be implemented in NetWeaver for implementing solution manager.
Thanks,
Neha.

Hi Neha,
I am not sure, whether I understand your question correctly.
- SAP ERP 2005 (ECC 6.0) and SAP Solution Manager 4.0 are separate installations, each will get their own system id.
They might share the same hardware, depending on your hardware capacity.

SAP Solution Manager for SAP Business Suite On HANA

Dear Experts,
I have a small question regarding the available installation options for SAP Solution Manager for SOH.
Is there other available database platforms for the installation of SAP Solution Manager than the SAP HANA Database ?
Meaning that if we have a customer who has the license for SAP HANA Database, does he have other database options for installing the Solution Manager that are covered by the HANA license ?
Kind Regards,
Mohamed Awny

Well if you can find the solution manager software for a DB other than HANA in service market then you can install.
You can check this by checking the service market SAP Technology Components" ==> SAP SOLUTION MANAGER" ==> SAP SOLUTION MANAGER 7.1
HANA is so fast why choose another DB?

Hi,
I have installed a Solution Manager and I request a EWA alert in the market place for some systems that I have in production... for the exercises I need to have the Solution Manager connected to the systems.. how can I do that?? What are the steps?
Thanks a lot for your help!!

Hi,
Thanks for your information people but kourosh, when I try to access the link I receive this message: The page you were trying to reach does not exist. You may want to try a search, or browse the site to find the page you were looking for.
Shitij, the page that you give me present me a search web page that is not working too.
I execute the report RTCtool in all the system and are ready for the service but I don't know how to configure the Solution Manager system to connect it to the other systems for the SAP exercises...
Some idea of how can I do that?

Questions on "FAQ - SAP Solution Manager for VARs"

Hi,
I just got through the FAQ - SAP Solution Manager for VARs, but have some further questions:
For me it is not quite clear which connections are necessary for which VAR scenrio.. currently we have setup the service desk in our solman. Customer's aren't linked to the solman yet - we have saprouter-saprouter connections. Connecting them via SAP support backbone is an interesting option, especially for incident management. To get this working we should follow note 1124718 right?
But what about the other scenarios like maintenance optimizer and ewa monitoring? I guess for that we definitly need to build up RFC connections to each relevant customer system (~300+x)?! I think it will be hard to handle so many connections - just consider if a customer is cancalling the maintenance contract, everything needs to be removed again... best would be to have a central communication point...
For MOPZ we need up-to-date system information. So everyone is talking about SLD. Do you also recommend this option? There we need again a connection (direct to SolMan SLD or via external SLD on customer side).
According to the FAQ there is a workaround for ewa monitoring for customers with security doubts.. is this also working for non-ABAP components? We need SMD and WI for generating ewas for JAVA systems...
With regards to Enterprise Support contract: ewa only need to be monitored for productive systems? Can a customer be charged if they want to have ewas monitored for other sytems too? How long do we need to keep the ewas (1 month, 3 months, half year) before they are deleted? Are there any specific requirements?
All the work to get these scenarios working.. is this covered within the Enterprise Support contract? Can the customer be charged for work thats done by the VAR in their system (e.g. RFC connections, SDCCN, SLD,...)?
Sorry for this long text.. hope you have some helpful ideas!
Regards,
Richard

Hello Richard,
(1) regarding network connections see document [Draft:Technical Support Network Connections for VAR Scenario|http://service.sap.com/~form/sapnet?_SHORTKEY=00200797470000089947&_OBJECT=011000358700000880802009E] as overview and with a lot of detailed information.
(2) yes, you have to setup once all your customer connections at the beginning but then only add/remove with customer contract changes
(3) the workaround by sending by email can handled a anexception. EWA has to be done for productive systems like nowadays done by SAP. Additional EWA services could meas additional business case for a VAR - that's contract between VAR and customer.
(4) whatever you think may be a business to sell - do it ! (and get a monetary bonus from your boss
Kind regards

Using Solution Manager 7.0 to Generate Solution Key for SAP Netweaver 7.3 ?

Hi, SDN Gurus.
We are running Solution Manager 7.0.
I am trying to generate solution key for SAP Netweaver 7.3 system. When I was creating a new system (in TCode SMSY); I only see Newtweaver 7.1 is the latest version available in the SAP Netweaver product version drop down list.
Is that true that I always need to upgrade the latest/compatible version (SP & patches) of SAP Solution Manager to generate solution key for the latest released of SAP products?
If this is the case, what version of SAP Solution Manager I need to create new system and generate solution key for SAP Netweaver 7.3?
Thanks for advices,
KC

Does SAP business one require solution manager for license keys ?

Does SAP business one require solution manager for license keys or you can directly get the license key from service.sap.com?

Hi,
Welcome you post on the SAP business one forum.
In general, only SAP partner can get the license key. However, partner can assign the right to customer so that they can get it from portal directly.
Thanks,
Gordon

One Solution Manager for different customers

Hi Guys!!
I am configuring a Solution Manager for different customers wich have a different S-users and different users to manage the solution manager system.
My problem is that there is only one SAP-OSS RFC destination where I can fill the data only for one of the S-users. From "solution_manager" transaction you can indicate the S-user too (Edit - Global Settings) but the same problem occurs, I can fill the gap only with one S-user and I have to change this one when I want to work with different S-user.
Can i configure the system to indicate different S-users depens on the user who I use to logon to solution manager system?
Thank you very much in advanced,
Edorta.

Hi Edorta,
you did not mention, which scenarios do you plan to use.
Functionality to use the SolMan for many customer numbers is already available or will be added in future Support Package Stacks.
It has been already added for
- Maintenance Optimizer
Note 1021275 - Maintenance Optimizer: RFC Destinations for Partners
- Forwarding SAP Messages (with different S-Users resp. customers)
IMG: Solution Manager -> Scenario-Specific Settings -> Service Desk -> Value Added Reseller
Check for SAP Notes on component SV-SMG* with key word "VAR" (as Valued Added Reseller), "Service Provider"

BADI - CRM_CUSTOMER_I_BADI - IN SOLUTION MANAGER OF SAP.

Hi Friends,
I am facing some problems in creating a custom tabs in CRMD_ORDER Transaction code in Solution Manager of SAP.
Actually my requirement is adding of two tabs(one is header & another is item tab) in the above Transaction, i was able to put one tab i.e header tab but i was not able to keep item tab. i found a badi CRM_CUSTOMER_I_BADI in which documentation was given & i processed in the same way.
For information i used the Badi CRM_CUSTOMER_H_BADI for header tab which i was able to add the tab & all functions like change, save working Good.
But i want how to add custom tab in which item details were to be attached.
i was done with the necessary SPRO settings(or Tcode CRMV_SSV) & able to see the 2 tabs thats it, but the functionality save is not working for the second tab & not saving in table CRMD_CUSTOMER_I (in this table there is one CI include where we added our item fields).
And also i had a doubt whether to use ALV or Table Control. And if possible can any one can sent me the screen design & the code for the above requirement in detail.
can any one who have knoweldge in Solution Manager & in the above Badi implementation can give me a right solution which will help me a lot.
Thanks a lot in advance.
Thanks
Ravi.

Hello Debasis,
Would suggest to debug. Just set the break point in the BADi and wait if it stops at the BADi. All you need is to call the BADi before calling the save FM, or call the BADi from the save event.

Role of Solution Manager in SAP Security.

Hi
Can anyone help me to understant the role of SAP Solution Manager in SAP Security. Link to any relevant document is appreciated.
Thanks you all.

Hi,
First understand and decide what each consultant is going to do in the system. Like Technical Consultant will take care of Installation, Setting Up Landscape, Setting up TMS etc.
Project Manager will create projects, Handle roadmaps etc.
Segregating this way will help you defining the Roles in the system. I would also suggest you to have authorization Matrix in a Spreadsheet.
The authorization can also be categorized based on Operational processing.
Check this link.
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_sm40/helpdata/en/24/c7baad86044eacb7203cdd341211a9/content.htm

Preparing Solution Manager for SMD Agents Installation

Hello everyone
I have to configure the Solution Manager of QAS to receive new SMD Agents, I looking at the transaction SOLMAN_SETUP.
Does anybdoy know what do I have to do to prepare the environment for the installation of SMD agents?
Thank

Hi Marcelo,
Check note 1365123 - Installation of Diagnostics Agents, this note shows the agent installation strategy. You must install one SMD agent per host (physical or virtual) . The SMD agent should be installed in all host you want to monitor.
In order to connect the SMD agent into your Solution check the following WIKI:
http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/SMSETUP/Diagnostics+Agents#DiagnosticsAgents-Connectionoptions
Also, you can managed the SMD agent in the "Agent Administration", it can be found at:
- SOLMAN_WORKCENTER
- Tab Root Cause Analysis
- "Agent Administration"
I recommend you to use the "Direct connection to solution manager" for your agents. It is easier than the SLD registration.
Regards,
Allam

Solution Manager for EWA

I already configured my EWA (SDCCN), but then I realize that EWA need Solution Manager to run.
I need to know how to install Solution Manager for my EWA? Do I need to install in separate server? Or there are others option for me to consider?
Pls help me to figure this out

Hello Hazha!
I don't know how you can configure in SDCCN an EWA session without the Solution Manager, but if you did so, you can send your EWA data to sap, where they will be processed and where you can find them in your inbox.
You need a well functioning SAPOSS RFC destination (TA OSS1).
SDCCN -> Goto -> Settings -> Task Specific
You will get a window with a tree list. Open RFC-Destinations -> Settings and click on the settings icon.
In Dialog RFC destinations, Tab Destinations you might click on the Info-Icon (botton) and you will get documentation. Click now on the Change Icon.
You will now get a new icon "Create destination to SAP OSS". Please use it, it should generate the destination SDCC_OSS.
Please test the destination.
Now you can insert this RFC-destination into the task attributes of your EWA-Session, system-id should be O01.
Bye
PS.
You might also have a look at the documentation at http://service.sap.com/ewa -> Media Library
