Source system mapping/conversion between BW systems

Hello BO/BW Forum
I have question regarding source system mapping between BW systems
We are in BW7 and we still have BW3.5 objects (Cubes,IO,ODS ets)
We have 1 source in BW Dev that need to split to 2 different sources in BW QA
e.d BW Dev map to ECC Dev 110 and when we transport ,it should map
to 2 sources ,one is ECCQA Clinet 200 and another map to ECCQA Client 210
in the conversion in BW QA we have mapped it to the 2 ECC QA sources but
the problem is that if we would only work with BW7 objects this will work but since we have
also BW3.5 objects the mapping in not complete , we also checked the 7.0 button in the conversion
any assistance is highly appreciated

Hi,
Hope you aware of Infosources interacts with Replicated Datasources.
As per your post, BW1 is a source system for BW2 and BW3.
So, you have to create Infosources in BW2 and BW3. So you have to replicate the datasources in BW2 and BW3.

Source system mapping for transport

We just create a change request for an InfoSouce. Now we transport this change request from DEV system to TEST system. But when this change request was imported on TEST system, got the "Method Execution" red error which can be checked through STMS in log. The red error msg is "Source system A does not exist", where A is our R3 DEV server. Actually we need the source system B which is R3 TEST server in the InfoSouce transported into BW TEST system, but the problem is that the change request was created on BW DEV which uses A as Souce System in the InfoSouce, then how to make the InfoSouce has B on BW TEST after the transport?
Roberto gave an answer (see my another post: What should BASIS do for an InfoSource transport for Souce System change?) as below:
"you have to set the source system mapping in your target system in RSA1, Transport Connection -> F8 and then import your request again !"
But he said this setting would be done at the target or TEST system. I don't think it's right, this mapping setting should be done at the DEV system since our transports are created in DEV Transport Connection, am I right?
Please verify who is right?

hi Kevin,
let's refer to sap's doc
'bw and transport'
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/3010ba90-0201-0010-2896-e58547c6757e
p. 33
'.. make sure to set the source system mapping configuration in each target system to convert the transfer rules ..'

What is the difference between developement system and delivery system?

Hello Experts,
I have some questions regarding publishing the content on delivery system.
Could some one help me.
1) Can we use Development System as Delivery System?
2) Can we Publish a Site into Development System?
3) How to check whether the installation done in development mode or in delivery mode? I mean do we have any procedure to check ?
4) What are the Advantages of Delivery System over the Development System?
Note: I installed Webcenter sites11gR1 on Weblogic10.3 server and windows 7.
Thanks in advance
Rajendar.

I got the answers.
1) Can we use Development System as Delivery System?
Ans:
Yes, a development system contains the same functionality as a delivery system. Conversely a delivery system doesn't have a contributor interface so it cannot be used for managing assets.
Not recommended and it also depends on the sizing of your environment and tuning. Delivery systems usually are architected with performance in mind, depending on the expected load, logs are minimal and usually Remote Satellite Servers are added. Important as well is that no content or any assets is created directly on the delivery system, you might run into unique ID constrains when you publish content from Authoring to Delivery, in your case Development.
2) Can we Publish a Site into Development System?
Ans:
Yes, you can.
Be careful this is not recommended, you can run into unique id constraints issues
3) How to check whether the installation done in development mode or in delivery mode? I mean do we have any procedure to check ?
Ans:
Look in the ominstallinfo directory, in the location where WebCenter Sites was installed. there is a file called omii.ini that contains installation-time choices and parameters. Look for the parameter "Development"
- true, indicates it was a Development type install. Advanced UI will be available, as will the Contributor UI
- false, indicates it was a Delivery type install. Only Advanced UI will be available.
4) What are the Advantages of Delivery System over the Development System?
Ans:
A delivery type install is more secure, as the contributor UI and some other editorial components are not installed. It also prevents editors from changing content on the delivery system by mistake.
In general Delivery systems are architected different, more emphasis on performance, caching and security.

Hi... i dont understand your isse you have one source of transport and in the destination if points to two systems and this works for you....and your problem is in 3.5 objects? its a version problem?

Source System mapping while transporting objects from Q to P

Hi All,
I have moved all my transports from BW DEV to Q twice with different source system mappings, say R3D to R3Q and again R3D to R3X, as I have to do testing from both the source systems.
Now, I have to move all those transports to PROD and I found out that they will be moved from Q to P and not from DEV to P. In such case, what source system mapping should I maintain in P? Is that R3Q to R3P or R3R to R3P?
Hope I am clear with my question. Please let me know if it is not clear.
Thanks,
RPK.

Hi Nasiroddin,
Itseems I am not clear with my question. Let me put it in another way.
My BWQ is connected to two R/3 source systems, say R3Q and R3X where as my BWP is only connected to R3P. While transporting the requests from BWQ to BWP, I know that I have to maintain the source system mappings(Tools->Mapping of the source system names). Now I am in doubt about what mapping do I need to maintain(either R3Q->R3P or R3X->R3P)? Which source systems transfer rules etc.(all source system dependant objetcs) will be transported, either R3Q or R3X?
Thanks,
RPK.

Conversion of logical System Name

Hi,
I have read somewhere that Conversion of logical System Name is part of BW System check Before go live. Can someone explain the purpose of it.
Thanks in advance
krish

Hi,
There are two different activities related to this, if you have done the system copy then for changing the logical system name we will run BDLS transaction. Check the below link for more information,
[http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/33/c823dbaea911d6b29500508b6b8a93/content.htm]
But if you want to move the source system dependent objects from one system to another system then we maintain the source system and target system mapping in target system.
For transport method you can maintain the system names as suggested by Gaurav and you can check that in table RSLOGSYSMAP or you can directly maintain entries in this table.

Durgesh.

Conversion of logical system names

Hi
Must the Conversion of logical system names be set up in each client.
I.e in the BW production client do I have to go and setup what the conversion is between before the transport and after the transport.
Also if I then go into this view and want to add my conversion detail, and the system doesn't exist (in table) do I have to create the entries in Dev and Transport it through?
Corne

Hi Corne,
If the correct entries don't exist in the underlying tables, you have maintain it in SPRO.
The entry in the table is cross client. hence it has to be done in Dev.
Go to SPRO -> SAP Netweaver -> Business Intelligence -> Links to Other Source Systems -> General Connection Settings
-> Define Logical System
1. To create a logical system, choose Edit -> New Entries.
2. Enter a name for the logical system that you want to create.
3. Enter a description of the logical system.
If you want to cange this entry:
a) Select the appropriate line.
b) Choose Edit -> Change field contents.
c) Enter the new text.
d) Choose Replace.
4. Save your entries.

Client Copy between unicode system and non-unicode system

Hello,
we have to build up a new system for japan. It is planned to install a new 4.7Ext200 unicode system and then make a client copy from a non-unicode 4.7Ext200 (language= german, english) system to the unicode system. I don't think that this is possible way, but I can't find information regarding client copies from non-unicode to unicode. I would advice the project to convert the existing non-unicode system to unicode, make a system copy for the new system and then install japan languages. Any information, which can help me.
Regards,
Alexander

Hi,
without conversion client copy is not possible

Mapping issue in quality system

Hi Experts,
I am new to BODS tool. Currently I am working with BODS 4.2 version.
I have an issue with mapping of datastores in quality system.
Actually I have created a project in Development system ( done all the things I mean to say Jobs, Workflows and Dataflows...).
For this project, Source tables are from SQL server and Target tables are from SAP BI system.
In BODS Development system, this project is working fine ( Source tables are perfectly mapped to Dev SQL Server Database tables and Target tables are mapped to SAP BI Dev system). While running a process chain in SAP BI DEV system, It's working fine.
Now I have Transported this Project to BODS quality system through central repository.Everything related to this project ( I mean to say project, Jobs, Workflows and Dataflows ) got reflected in quality system.
Can anyone please let me know, how should I map the Datastores related to this project to the quality system ( I mean to say now all the source tables should point to SQL Server Quality system Database tables and Target tables should point to SAP BI quality system ).
Appreciate for your quick responses.

Hi Cris,
Please Edit your SQL datastore and BI datastroe in BODS and provide the Quality system username and password. For BI datastore please update ip aslo.
Steps for BI datastore:
Right click on your BI datastore and click Edit--->click advanced tab-->Edit-->refer below sreenshoot
Please provide your Quality system credential then -->click apply-->ok
Same procedure you can follow for SQL datasore.

Conversion of logical system name fails

Hi,
when trying to transport a transformation on BW7 the logical conversion name is failing. When i check the setup (on rsa1 menu "Conversion of logical system names") it seams to be ok on source and target system.
Any tips to solve this ?
thx in advance

Hi,
when you are not maiantained the logical systems properly , then you will get that error when you are transporting the objects
in Bi production system ( to which server you are moving objects) in that you should maiantain the all logical systems as below
1) for examaple BI deve --- BI prd
one logical systm should be bi Dev to BI prd
2) ECC production connected to BOI production
Then one more logical assignment ECC prd to BI prd
normally those two you are maintained i think so.
but when you are moving the objects from the BI development to Bi production
the daat sources are pertaining to the ECC developmet
so that ECC deve to BI Dev ( here there is no problem)
when those daat source s you are moving to production it shows error
because that ECC deve Data source logical system should be changed to BI production
so you main tain one more logical system ECC dev to ECC PRD
in your BI system
Then try reimport the same.

Conversion of logical system

Hi,all,
I have 3 BI box - BWD, BWQ, BWP, and 3 R3 box - R3D, R3Q, R3P, before I transport datasource, infopackage from BWD to BWQ, I configured the conversion of logical system in BWQ as: BWD -> BWQ, R3D -> R3Q, that works fine, So before I transport to P, how should I configure this mapping in BWP: BWD -> BWP, R3D -> R3P or BWQ ->BWP, R3Q -> R3P?
Thanks a lot.

Hi,
You can input all four or you can input the combinations going from your Q to your P system. Both will work...

Data source Replication error in BW Quality system

hi experts,
when i replicate the data source in BW QUALITY SYSTEM it is giving the below error.
Invalid call sequence for interfaces when rec
changes.
plz find the long text
Message no. TK425
Diagnosis
The function you selected uses interfaces to record changes made to your objects in requests and tasks.
Before you save the changes, a check needs to be carried out to establish whether the objects may be changed. This check must be performed before you begin to make changes.
System Response
The function terminates.
Procedure
The function you have used must correct the two Transport Organizer interfaces required. Contact your system administrator.
After replication of data source changes are not reflecting in BW QUALITY SYSTEM.
REGARDS
venuscm

Hi,
Hope you have checked whether the DS has been transported to R/3 Quality and got activated before Replication in BW quality.
Check RFC connections between the systems.
Check RSLOGSYSMAP table in both Bw & R/3 to confirm the system mappings.
Try replicating again.......

Transporting a Data Source and Hierachie to the Quality System

Hello,
i have following problem.
I want to transport a generic data source from our development system into the quality system.
In the development system the hierachie looks like
New-Hierroot
->CO
    ->ABB
         ->Datasource ABB
When i transport the data source into the quality system the hierache looks
New Hierroot
->Nodesnotconnected
->CO
      ->ABB
           ->Datasource ABB
How can i solve this problem? Transaction rsa9? We dont have business content on our r/3 systems and iam not allowed to change such settings...??
Thank you greetings

i don't understand that exarctly.
Transport connectionscreen is se09? (what transaction is that?)
