System Landscape Design for EP-ESS Production Environment

Hi Experts,
We are about to implement SAP Employee Self Service solution through SAP Enterprise Portal 6.0 on our Production server.Our activity on development server is completed.The Backend version we are using is R/3 4.7C and using ITS for integration between Portal and R/3.We are using Business Package for ESS 4.6C 4.7 release 50.4 .We hv ESS userbase of 1000 users .We want to design the system landscape for the Production Server implementation.Can somebody help me the Hardware parameters and system landscape for the same.My Email id is [email protected] .
Regards,
Saumya

Hi Kenneth,
I have checked all tables that the report made changes. So, I noticed that table was not changed at all.
Just to inform you, now everything is fine. All connections was stabilished. And I have done tests with sucess. PERFECT!
Once more, thanks and have a nice weekend.

System Landscape settings for EP connecting to SAP Webdisp to ess/mss

We have external facing portal . for reverse proxy we are using sap webdispatcher.
sapwebdispatcher->ep->sapwebdispatcher--->HCM(ess/mss)
EP connects to HCM(ess/mss) via sap webdispatcher.
What should be my system landscape defination in Portal and JCo destinations for webdynpro where ep and webdynpro is connecting to backend(ess/mss) via sap webdispatcher.
My guess is instead of message server I should point to sap webdispatcher url then what should be my port for connectors,ITS settings and WebAS settings in system landscape.
Thanks very much in advance for your help.

Something like that, with Firewalls and additional web dispatcher for external access to HCM:
FW                   FW
FW sapwebdispatcher1-FW-->ep--->sapwebdispatcher3--->HCM(ess/mss)
FW                   FW            ^
FW                   FW            |
FW sapwebdispatcher2-FW----------->|
FW                   FW
The reason is that EP iview with ITS content requires browser to have direct visibility of ITS backend. You can see it if you trace HTTP requests.
Regarding system definition in PCD:
Michael is correct about Connector part - you can do direct HCM.
The more important issue is what you will put in "ITS Connection" (and SAP Web AS Connection). It is important to put public hotname/URL of sapwebdispatcher2, otherwise external web browser will have issues.
Another thing: no protocol mix for external URLs. If your EP is accessed via HTTPS, you will have to put HTTPS in ITS connector definition. Otherwise users will see browser warnings. You can do SSL termination on web dispatchers if you want and use HTTP from DMZ web dispatchers, but definition of external URLs should be protocol consistent.

System Landscape Directory for Portal 7.0

Good Day All,
Currently we are running Portal 7.0...now we are planning to run TREX 7.0 on our landscape.
In the post instlation guide of TREX its mentioned that we need to register the TREX on the System Landscape Directory (SLD).
Can we uitlize the SLD running on EP 7.0 JAVA AS or we should have a stand alone JAVA AS for SLD separately.

Hi Demorgan.
The purpose of SLD is gathering and updating landscape data automatically. In other words you do not need to gather this information manually, e.g. - in Excel sheets.
Thus from the functional point of view it doesn't matter either TREX is registered in SLD or not. It's about how you maintain your system landscape.
Best regards,
Aliaksandr Zhukau
P.S.: You can find information resources about SLD here [System Landscape Directory (SLD)]

Responsive Design Mode - Landscape Design for Mobile. (CP8)

Hi,
Given that the design default on mobile is on portrait, I'm wondering if there is an option to design for landscape. Thank you.

Do you really need to change the layout totally when the size is so close to each other? Just wondering. Responsive means that when you change the browser size everything will adapt. The breakpoints are only meant to have more 'agressive' changes, like having less objects on mobile screen, rearranging objects in another way etc. If you turn a tablet in landscape mode, it will probably use the Primary layout, if you use it in Portrait mode it will use the Tablet layout. If I understood your question wrongly, sorry.

External Facing portal design for the ESS and MSS

Hello Portal Gurus!!!
I need your suggestions regarding implementing external facing portal for the ESS implementation.
What does it take to implement the external facing portal and what are the pros and cons of going for this external facing portal over just exposing the Portal with ESS over the internet?
Thanks for your suggestions in advance!!!

Not able to view transport request tpz file for importing in Production

Hi Experts,
I am using PI 7.0. I am facing a problem while transporting a request to Production environment. I am using File Level Transport. When I create a transport file, it is successfully created in development system's /export location. Basis team moves the file production system's /import directory.
But here I am not able to see the imported file via Tool->import design/configuration objects , in Production environment. I have tried to use user Id's which have admin level authorizations, still I cannot see the file.
Background - A couple of weeks back, there was an issue with cluster service going down, and we had to manually register the Exchange infrastructure in SLD. New associations were created as per SAP note - #764176 'Manual correction of XI content in SLD'. We were able to transport to Production environment before this issue occurred.
Please help !
Regards,
Nikhil

Hi,
When I am trying to export pr create a TR file in XI production environment, i am getting error message - Permission denied.
Is this the problem ? Here is the log -

ChaRM in two system landscape

Hello Everyone,
I want to implement ChaRM for BIW systems which is a two system landscape: BIWDEV and BIWLIVE . Is it posible to implement ChaRm in a two system landscape /we need three system landscape only for it.I started the ChaRM configuration work but faced certain issues over which i was told tat Charm needs three systems for implementation. Kindly plz suggest and confirm.
Regards,
Somya

Hey Somya,
2 system landscape will also work with CHARM.
CHARM can also be configured in single system landscape.
But the bottomline is you require in all 3 clients to realize charm.
These three clients can belong to same or diffrent systems altogether.
For you i would say, u will require 2 clients in BIWDEV system ( Say BIWDEV:100 as development cleint and BIWDEV:200 as Test client ).
Now you have BIWLIVE system which is our production system, so you require 1 client BIWLIVE system..
So your 3 clients are ready and Change Request management can be realized..
Please Reward with points if this postv was usefull..
Revert For ne clarifications ..

Suzzane

Converting a two system landscape to three system landscape

Currently, I have a two system landscape: DEV (development) and PRD (production) in STMS
I would like to add a QAS system so I will end up with DEV-QAS-PRD in STMS
I would like to keep all data the way it is. I don't want to lose any logs or files in the data and cofiles directories.
This is how I have this planned:
-Include the QAS system in the existing Tranport Domain.(stms in QAS)
-In transaction STMS go to OVERVIEW -> Transport Routes -> Standard Configuration -> Three systems in group
and then save the configuration.(stms on the TDC)
I'm thinking this will preserrve the current log files and the corresponding data and cofile files.
If you have done this, I would appreciate any comment or advise.
Thanks.

Addition to above suggestion - Adding new system to existing landscape doesn't make any change to the data/cofiles. Process just adds additional system.

Nick Loy

Help regding... Checking system landscape during the Project Preparation

Hello All,
While I was creating a project using SolMan, I came across the "System Landscape --> Systems" tab, where I found an option to check the system landscape by clicking on the "System Landscape" button.
By clicking on that button I was able to check whether a valid logical component is assigned to various systems like ECC, CRM, KW, etc. Initially I just had an ECC system alone in the system landscape. Hence was able to see a logical component being assigned under the ECC system.
But after some time, when I checked the system landscape using the same "System Landscape" button in the "System Landscape-->Systems" tab, I was not able to find the logical component that has been assigned to the ECC System.
But the RFC is still enabled and I was able to navigate to the ECC system from SolMan.
Am I missing something? What is this "System Landscape" button for? Please provide me some insight into this issue.
Thanks a lot in advance.
best rgds,
Alagammai.

Hello, I own a license for Adobe CS5 Production Premium and Adobe CS4 Design Premium for Windows/PC. I am switching to an OSX/MAC system. Is it possible to transfer my licenses to the new platform?

It's possible to transfer licenses but it must be done by contacting a Customer Service representative by phone or web chat. They'll probably have you submit a form.

Feasibility for a new production system in the same environment

Dear friends,
Our management has come up with a requirement of expansion of SAP environment to cover up users in a different country for their francise over there. The options we are considering are below:
1. Implementing a whole new setup ( ECC, EP,BI, PI,Trex).
2. Expanding the lease lines between the sites in both the countries and providing access to the present setup itself with enhancement in the current hardware configuration.
or is it a good practice to keep a new Production system in the other country and add a new delivery route for the new production system within the current transport route ? How the license part may be taken care in these cases ?
Your suggestions are welcomed.
Many thanks,
SUJIT

Hi Sujit,
The answer to this question really depends on whether the new country is going to share much of the same configuration with some tailoring to local laws and requirements. If the system is going to be the same, then there is now reason to deploy a new system unless you are reaching technical limits for hardware. For ease of management and usage, then having one system is preferred. You can then upgrade your network to cope with the increased load and hardware as required.
Hope this helps,
Graham

Setting Up the System Landscape for ESS

Hello Experts,
I am implementing ESS in portal.
I am in step of defining systems in portal for ESS/MSS.
Below is link I am following from help.sap.com
[Link|http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_04/helpdata/en/5b/76a6d7fd3a4e91bfb422405bf3e04d/frameset.htm]
In above link it is mentioned that we have to define following systems :
SAP_WebDynpro_XSS
SAP_ECC_HumanResources
SAP_ECC_Travel
SAP_ITS_XSS
SAP_BSP_EREC
Additionaly according to below Article in SDN :
[Link|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/21eb036a-0a01-0010-25a3-b2224432640a?quicklink=index&overridelayout=true]
Following additional systems must be created :
SAP_ITS_EBU Looks similar to SAP_ITS_XSS above
SAP_R3_Financials
Now the basis person in my project has handed over to me following systems :
SAP_BSP_EREC
SAP_ITS_FND Name mismatch as FND is used in place of XSS or EBU
SAP_R3_Financials
SAP_WebDynpro_ESS Name mismatch as ESS is used in place of XSS
Now below two systems are altogether missing as per first link on help.sap.com
SAP_ECC_HumanResources
SAP_ECC_Travel
Please explain if it requires to be corrected or name mismatch and missing ststems would do.
Thanking you in anticipation.

All the above names that you are referring to are not necessarily separate systems.
These are system aliases for a system object created in your portal via System Administration - System landscape.
So, if you have HR and Finance on the same backend server, then you need only one system with the related system aliases.
You will need SAP_BSP_EREC only if you are planning on using E-recruitment.
Similarly, you will need SAP_ITS_XSS only if you are planning on using any ITS applications.
It is pretty straight forward to change/correct the names of your system aliases instead of changing the usage of these aliases every where else.
SAP_ECC_HumanResources is absolutely necessary.
SAP_ECC_Travel is required if you are planning on using travel and expense related applications.
Also, note that SAP_WebDynpro_XSS should be the alias of the system where your webdynpro applications are deployed (typically the same portal server)

System Landscape for ESS/MSS in EP60 SP2

I have installed EP60 SP2 on J2EE 6.20 and MSSQL. I have imported business packages ESS 50-4 and MSS 60-1-5. I have created the folder Systems in Portal Content and created a system SAP_R3 with aliases SAP_R3_HumanResources, SAP_R3_Cross, SAP_R3_Travel, and SAP_R3_Financials.
My 4.7 R/3 system is app server R3DEV02.domain.com, system id DEV, sysno 01, client 100. My ITS server is http://itsdev01.domain.com:71/scripts/wgate/webgui/! using client 100. My EP path is http://sapport01.domain.com:50000/irj/.
Given this information, can anyone tell me exactly what parameters I must set in the system landscape for system SAP_R3 and what the values should be for ESS and MSS to work properly? If I go to the System Landscape Cockpit, system SAP_R3 fails all tests.
Any and all help is certainly appreciated.

Hello Gary,
WRT SAP_R3 system landscape test failure, I ran into the same issue earlier, for a SAP_R3_Dedicated system. Keep the same setting values, but leave the system id (DEV) Blank, then test.
Your definition of (Application Server Host Address + System Number) should be sufficient for a SAP_R3_Dedicated connection.
I hope this will resolve your system TEST problem.

AAAttar
