Shaping Implementation Solution Management using Solution Manager

Hi Everyone,
Its truly amazing to see the way SAP solutions are shaping up and the way SAP is moving ahead with its roadmap of achieving 1 Lakh Customers by 2010. As we move ahead, we see solutions that focus more on business processes and break these business processes into smaller components, the utility of a tool that integrates applications and solutions becomes imminent.
Though <b>Solution Manager</b> has seen extensive usage in the area of support and monitoring, it still has to make a mark in the area of implementations. This gives us an opportunity to seek and suggest improvements to Solution Manager tool, specifically in implementations. Request if you all could share your experience with Solution Manager in the following areas
Key Functions
Scoping the solution landscape and business process
Project Scoping, issue tracking and reporting
Project Administration
Template Management
Roadmaps
Business Blueprint
Configuration
Customizing distribution
Quality Management
Test Management
Integration Management
Data Management

Solution Manager - Central Monitoring

Hi,
I keep on hearing the buzz word that Solution Manager would be used as central monitoring from PI 7.1 or later.
Can anyone explain more about this?
I was assuming that solution manager is just to store all the documents and processes.

Central Domain Controller in Solution manager

Hi All,
We have configured ChaRM successfully for ECC and BI system landscapes, by creating domain links between Solution Manager domain controller and individual domain controllers for ECC and BI systems. Now, we are planning to go for a central domain controller (Solman Domain Controller) for all the satellite systems. So basically, we plan to move the individual domain controllers from ECC and BI to solman domain controller and i guess there will not be domain links required anymore.
With regards to above scenario, please help me with below queries:
1 - Will the above strategy work with chaRM or not
2 - If yes, what are the activities that would be required to be redone in satellite system and solman system
3- Any critical pre-requisites that needs to be checked before we can start this exercise
Please help me with the above queries. Appreciate your time and effort.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Imran

HI,
Yes, you could use solman to be set as the main domain controller; either way with domain links, please kindly have a look

Work center in solution manager

Hi,
In the work center of solution manager, while trying to create job documentation : [https://websmp107.sap-ag.de/~sapidb/011000358700001975992008E/index.htm] from a change request the final step is to assign a logical component. When I click on the logical component icon my logical component list doesn't show up even though its maintained in the system. Is there some configuration involved?
Thanks,
Esha

Hello Esha,
if I understood your issue correctly your creating the Job Documentation from the Job Change Document (transaction type SDCD) -> you are using the ChaRM integration, right?
In that case you'll have to check IBase assigned to the Job and Change Request: The IBase has to point to a production system.
The program also filters for logical components having the (logical) System, i.e. combination of System ID and Client, of the assigned IBase, assigned in the role production.
-> So you need a logical component which includes the selected system (see IBase) in role production.

Martin

It supports the connection between business processes and the underlying IT infrastructure. As a result, it eases communication between your IT department and your lines of business. And it ensures that you derive the maximum benefits from your IT investments.
SAP Solution Manager features and functions include:
mySAP Business Suite implementation -- SAP Solution Manager provides content that accelerates implementation. Configuration information and a process-driven approach to implementation speed the blueprint, configuration, and final preparation phases. SAP Solution Manager enables efficient project administration and centralized control of cross-component implementations.
Global rollout -- The toolset eases process standardization and harmonization across organizations and locations by providing proven methodologies and all necessary functionality. You can more easily implement standardized settings at local sites, because configuration settings needn't be re-entered into local components.
Synchronization of custom settings -- With SAP Solution Manager, you can maintain consistency as you customize your heterogeneous IT environment. It enables safer administration of customization, less error-prone replication of custom settings, and simpler consistency checks. SAP Solution Manager reduces manual synchronization efforts by automatically distributing custom settings to various systems simultaneously, and by centrally managing all requests to synchronize settings.
Testing -- SAP Solution Manager speeds test preparation and execution. It provides a single point of access to the complete system landscape and enables centralized storage of testing material and test results to support cross-component tests.
IT and application support -- The support desk included in SAP Solution Manager helps you manage incidents more efficiently and eases the settlement of support costs. Centralized handling of support messages makes the support organization more efficient.
Solution monitoring -- SAP Solution Manager performs centralized, real-time monitoring of systems, business processes, and interfaces, which reduces administration effort. It can even monitor intersystem dependencies. Proactive monitoring helps you avoid critical situations, while automatic notifications enable fast response to issues.
Service-level management and reporting -- SAP Solution Manager allows easy definition of service levels and provides automated reporting. Service reporting covers all systems in the solution landscape and provides a consolidated report containing the information you need to make strategic IT decisions.
Service processing -- SAP Solution Manager makes appropriate service recommendations and delivers SAP support services. These include SAP Safeguarding, which helps you manage technical risk; SAP Solution Management Optimization, which helps you get the most from your SAP solutions; and SAP Empowering, which helps you manage your solutions.
