Solution Manager Certification -- Change Control Management

I am planning to do the certification test on "Application Management Expert - Change Control Management" , C_E2E200_08.
I am looking for sample questions or any study tips.

Hello Tathagata,
Please do the following checks.
1) Check if the satellite system TMS is configured with three system landscape.
2) Check both to and back RFCs to the systems. Especially check if the users are not locked. Even if the users are locked, the RFC check may give you green.
3) Go to central configuration(/TMWFLOW/cmsconf) in Solution Manager system and check if the system are shown green.. If not there will be a check list to make the systems green. For example no changes should be permitted in the production system.

SAP IDM on Solution Manager with Change Request Management

Hi Experts,
I'm facing a question. Does SAP Identity Management manage association between user in Solution Manager and links in PPOMA_CRM tree for Ticket validation on Change Request Management project ?
It seems that it could be done using Compliant User Provisioning from GRC Access Control application.
Thanks for your help,
Ben

Hello Ben,
as far as I know currently there is no "business level" integration between IdM 7.1 and SAP Solution Manager. You only can create SU01 user data as for any other SAP ABAP system.
I have heard that it is planned for the future to integrate the Solution Manager also in the business suite integration options the IdM product already provides for applications such as CRM, SRM and others.
Nevertheless you could create your own implementation for your requirements.

Add new system to an Existing project in Change Request in Solution Manager

HI,
Is it ok to add new systems and remove systems to an existing Project in Solution Manager with Change Request Management activated?
Currently, Change request is already set-up in our solution landscape, however, a new BI Dev and QA systems were created to replace the old Dev and QA systems that was initially set-up in our Charm. Can you please share with me the steps that I need to do to successfully remove old Dev and QA from Charm and replace them with the new systems? Is it safe to do this in an open project and maintenance cycle?
Thanks!

Hello,
Please, check the topic "6. Changes in the logical components of a project where Charm is already activated" of the link below:

Solution Manager - Can support user user changes manegement ??

Hi All,
In solution manager can change request type as a "New user creation" or "User authorization Change".
So that we can keep track of New user creation or change in authorization that are created in respective R/3 system.
The process flow is same like change management for developement correction or customization correction.
Please give me your comments. It will be very valuable for me.
Thanks in advance.
Ravindra Nikam

As I said, it will depend on the scenarios you will configure.
For the installation, you will not need any. When it comes to the configuration (SOLMAN_SETUP) you'll need the authorizations in SMP for S-User.
You can also check here:

Check the prerequisites at these Guide:

Error in RFC & to Solution Manager System

Hi,
Error in RFC & to Solution Manager System
can anyone tells me why this error occurs???
With regards
kulwinder

FYI
We have just had same issue thaat in certain scenarios with RFC communication BACK to Solution Manager from Satellite system we got the error. We resolved this by looking at the RFC user used in the BACK connection (i.e. SOLMAN<SID>) on the Solution Manager and changing the user type from communications.
Hope this helps someone else, I spent ages digging around for an answer to such a simple fix

Ccmsping registration problem in Solution manager

hi,
I am installing CCMSPING agent to check "System Availability" from Solution Manager.
In our system ladscape we have multiple systems on sigle host. for eg) TP7 & DW1 on single host cpafisb8.
I have successfully registered the CCMSPING agent in Solman.
I have followed the Availability doc for registeration CCMSPING. Following are the major steps that i have done:
1)Download & extract CCMSAGENT from market place.
2)Configuration of Central Monitoring system.
3)Registration of CCMSPING using command u201Cccmsping -push -Ru201D.
4)Configured Availability Monitoring in Central System (i.e. Solution Manager) in RZ21.
As result i can see the stellite sytem node in RZ20 under " SAP CCMS Monitor Templates-->Availability and Performance Overview".
When i go to transaction "solman_workcenter" in tab "System Landscape management", i can see the staus of system as Green for the system i registered.
Now, the problem i facing in in transaction solman_workcenter is described as follows:
As i mentioned We have multiple systems on single host, for eg) TP7 & DW1 are on the same host "cpafisb8",
hence if CCMSPING has been registered for TP7 the status is green for DW1 too even if DW1 has no entry in RZ21.
Strange thing is DW1 was showing.
I have tried following three options to make the status correct in solman_workcenter:
1) I have maintained hostname for TP7 as "TP7.afis.chevrontexaco.net" which is alias for
hostname cpafisb8 in RZ21 & SMSY & status is correctly showing green for TP7 but still for DW1 which is not defined in RZ21, status is showing green.
2)I have unregistered the CCMSPING fron TP7. TP7 status has been changed to gray but strange thing happeneing was DW1 status was still green even no ccmsping process was running on the DW1 host.
3)I have registered the CCMSPING for TP7 with its central instance profile options using command:
ccmsping -R -push -n31 pf=/usr/chevron/TP7/profile/TP7_DVEBMGS31_cpafisb8
and agin configured TP7 in solution manager & status changed gray to green for TP7, but no change happening in DW1 status.
Can anyone please help on this strange behavior of Solman_workcenter.

Hi,
Thanks for he reply..
But i have already followed the process that you described or CCMSPING registration. and CCMSPING is transfering the data successully from satellite system to solution manger.
And as result of successul registration i can see the status of that satellite system as green in transaction "solman_workcenter".
But as i described earlier we have multiple systems registered on single host.for eg)SY1 & SY2 on host1
Hence even though the CCMSPING is not registred for SY2 & only registered or SY1 on host1 with RZ21 configuration in solution manager for SY1; SY2 status is also shown green in transaction solman_workcenter.
I want that only status of SY1 should be shown as green in solution manger under transaction "solman_workcenter".
I hope you understood the issue.
thanks

ARIS Solution manager synchronization error

Hi all,
we have integrated ARIS software with solution manager for the business process modelling.
the problem is data is getting synchronized from solution manager to ARIS. no error is coming.
but when we make some changes in the ARIS structure and tried to synchronize back to solution manager.
the changes are not getting reflected in solution manager.
kindly advice in this regard.
Regards,
Subhashini

Hi Solmaic,
Thanks for your reply.
ya that is what exactly is happening.
we have just now started working on ARIS. so we have synchronized a project from solution manager.
the possiblities we tried are
1. synchronized the project and changed the name of the project. and synchronized back but nothing is changed in solution manager.
2. Changed the anme of a scenario and changed a document and synchornized back but that change is also not reflected.
3. we have created a VACD, made the process type as scenario. but in the log we have got an information that it has skipped the scenario.
kindly guide in this regard.
Regards,
Subhashini.

Solution Manager Workflow

I would like to know if there is any standard workflow template available in Solution manager for Change request management. My requirement is to trigger a workflow when the status of the change request is made to Assigned. I have to send a workitem to a the approver and he changes the status to the next status and then the workflow should send a workitem to next approver and so on. We have two options to do this
1. One is using the status management(BSVW).
2. Using Action profiles(similar to one in CRM).
I would like to know which one is the best option to use for custom workflow development. Please advice.

Hi,
We have two options to do this
1. One is using the status management(BSVW).
2. Using Action profiles(similar to one in CRM).
Use any of these options to trigger the event.
One the event triggering in SWEL, then mapped your workflow to it.
Can you tell which BO you are using?

Solution Manager ChaRM Issues when Upgrading Satellite System

When upgrading a satellite system that is connected to Solution Manager's Change Request Management, is there anything that we need to be aware of?
Will Change Documents still be able to go to completion (Production status) if we modify the landscape from the time the Change Document is In Development to the time it is moved to Production?
1. Normal Correction (In Development) Development (ECC 5.0) -> Quality (ECC 5.0) -> Production (ECC 5.0)
2. Landscape is changed to Development (ECC 6.0) -> Quality (ECC 6.0) -> Production (ECC 5.0)
3. Normal Correction moved to To Be Tested -> Consolidated -> Production
Will the Normal Correction be in error because the landscape changed for the iBASE?
Are there any other lessons learned that anyone has experienced with Change Request Management or Implementation during and after an upgrade?
Thank You,
Carlen

Thanks Subhashini!
We had issues updating the Task List in the past. After we update the landscape and refresh the project and update the Task List, do you foresee any other problems?
Are there any additional items we should look out for? For example, we understand it is a requirement to release all transports prior to beginning the upgrade. However, since the release of the transport locks the change into the cycle for the next production move, this will present a problem if the change is not yet ready to be moved into Production. Do you have any further insight to any additional issues such as this?
Thanks again!

Solution Manager 3.2 SP 8- Change Request Management Configuration Problem

Hi friends,
We are in process of implementing SOLMAN 3.2 SP8 in our landscape.I am facing problem in configuring change request management.
When the developer is working on an urgent correction document we are facing a problem.The steps we are following are here under provided.
Step 1 :
Selected Action "In development" - > it created the transport request in the dev system.
Step 2:
Action "Log into System" -> made correction attached to the transport request manually and released the task.
Step 3:
Action "Release transport requests" -> The transport request in the development was released.
Step 4:
Went for action "Pass to correction" -> I am facing exceptions which conveys
Status was reset by system
A condition is not satisfied because of an exceptional situation
Not all transport requests yet released
And we would be thankful if you provide the authorization required for the different roles in the change request management.I have followed the help file of SOLMAN 3.2 and create the users as under
User - Role
SOCM_RQSTR - ZSAP_SOCM_REQUESTER
(Derrived from SAP_SOCM_REQUESTER)
SOCM_DVLPR - ZSAP_SOCM_DEVELOPER
(Derrived from SAP_SOCM_DEVELOPER)
SOCM_CHNGNGR - ZSAP_SOCM_CHANGE_MANAGER
(Derrived from SAP_SOCM_CHANGE_MANAGER)
SOCM_CHNGNGR - ZSAP_SOCM_IT_OPERATOR
(Derrived from SAP_SOCM_IT_OPERATOR)
Even then I am facing problems while developer creating transport requests and while logging into development system.
I tried adding S_RFC,S_RFCACL auth objects to their roles but did not help.
Pl. suggest.
Thanks & Regards

Hi all,
We are trying to implement the Change Request Management piece in Solution Manager 3.2.
We are facing the following issues which I think relate to the same reason:
1)We have created a Maintenance Project in SOLAR_PROJECT_ADMIN and assigned it a logical component, which consists of our two system landscape (namely DEVàQAS). We have also created the IMG project in the DEV system and have distributed that IMG project to both the Solution manager system and the DEV system. Now we have to make the maintenance cycle and task list for that maintenance project, but as we select the project and click on create project cycle it shows the message "The project is not released. Hence cycle can not be created". It is showing the status of project as locked .How can we open or unlock the project to remove the error?
2) Also after selecting the SMI project when we click on the button CTS status switches or project specific Transport route it responds with the error "Project landscape not configured; set the project status to "open" first ".
3)When we click on synchronize single project it prompts for the login of connected system (Development System) and after login, it gives an error "Warning, problems during synchronization of the system Landscape".
For Error resolution, we have checked the system landscape and it does not give us any errors. We have done that, both from the solution manager by going to the transaction SOLAR_PROJECT_ADMIN --> >system landscape tab>selecting our logical component and doing a check by clicking the "Check system Landscape" button. It returns with "no Errors". We also did a check on the TMS configuration by logging directly on to the TMS domain controller system and checking the Transport routes. We have checked the RFC connections without any errors.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Solution Manager Change Management Master Guide

Hi
We are looking into implementing Solution Manager 7.0 and have the
following questions:
- Can we implement change managment in Solution Manager with only one
satellite system (i.e. Development) as the other systems are not ready
yet (i.e. Test, QA etc.)?
- Could you let us know where we can find the master or technical guide
to setup change management in Solution Manager 7.0.

Hi,
it is possible to implement ChaRM even not all satellite systems are available yet.
I am not sure how much functionality you will get using virtual systems but you may configure and test ChaRM using 3 different clients in your DEV system (need to adjust TMS config accordingly).
Some useful information regarding ChaRM configuration can be found [here|/people/dolores.correa/blog/2008/07/26/first-steps-to-work-with-change-request-management-scenario]
Since ChaRM relies on Service Desk you should also have a look at appropriate Blogs.
Also you should follow the IMG documentation/steps in SPRO.

IBase When Creating a Request for Change in Solution Manager 7.1

Hello all,
We recenlty upgraded our sandbox system to Solution Manager 7.1 SP3 and are currently investigating the new ChaRM functionality with the new CRM UI. Our company had configured ChaRM back in 2007 and has been working very well since the initial delivery.
While I was following the Request for [Change process simulation from RKT|https://websmp208.sap-ag.de/~sapidb/011000358700000478022011E/index.htm] on our sandbox system, I had noticed that the iBase and Component that we have created in transaction IB52 prior to the upgrade were not showing in our search when we were defining the Change Request Scope section. In the documentation that I have read leading up to the upgrade, there have been no mention of the iBase/Component data becoming invalid post-upgrade nor have I found a conversion process. I have done a search here on SDN and on SAP Notes to see why the iBase and Components were not showing up.
Has anybody encountered this issue since the upgrade to 7.1 or is there something I need to do in IB52 in order for the iBase/Component in the new CRM GUI?
Your assistance in this matter would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
yes in 7.0 it worked for me too, that is because in 7.0 ChaRM searched for projects based on the IBase you selected.
If there were more than one project where this system is involved you got a pop up where to chose your project.
In 7.1 you chose the project directly, instead of let the system search for you.
And depending on what productive-systems are in this project you get your Ibase list.
If you don't select a project at all you will still get a list of all Ibases in your system.
Iif you ask the SAP, they will allways tell you that you have to have a productive system in your project, at least as you pointed out with a virtual system.
I did not read i t though and therfore ca nnot provide any sources.
This is all based on my experiences.
Best Regards
Daniel
