System landscapes in SLD

Hello,
Does any one have experience using other landscape definitions in the SLD?
What can be the use in XI. Will it be possible to use systems from different landscapes via this way in the central sld?
Thanks,
Emile

Hi,
the SLD is for specific landscape. If you want to have Central SLD and then multiple SLDs you can go on that. But maintaining this will be difficult..
If you want to use systems from the different landscapes, you need to make the sync between that SLD with your SLD.. then it is possible.. otherwise as SLD itself describes the System repository for all sytems uner one landscape..
Also this guide may give some hints:

Hi Nikil,
i had seen your reply after i had resolve the issue by my own. As my administrator password got changed, i had changed SLDDSUSER password. Both adminstrator password & SLDUSUSER password should be same.
(any how iam rewarding you with points as mostly it is correct answer)

Connection to system landscape directory (SLD) could not be opened succesfully

Hello SAP Gurus,
I got the follow wrong with MSS main page: ERROR: Exception condition "COMMUNICATION_ERROR" triggered (termination: RABAX_STATE)
I was checking SLD connecton between sap portal and SLD, but i show me ad "Connection to system landscape directory (SLD) could not be opened succesfully"
User SLDDSUSER, is no lock.
Enclose pictures.
Best regads.

Hi Andres,
You need to check the below things.
1. Try to do telnet from portal server to the SLD server
   telnet svrsapnpd.minedu.gov.co 50000
   I hope this will not work, if its work then you have to check the user administrator.
2. If the SAP netweaver version is 7.0x
   Open the visual admin-->select services and check the SLD Data Supplier service
3. If SAP Netweaver is 7.1,7.3 and above
open the nwa -> goto destination and check the SLD_DataSupplier and SLD_Client

SAP System Landscape Directory (SLD) Privileges

Hello everyone,
I'm not really sure if this is the correct place to start this discussion, but any help and support is really appreciated.
The question is as follows: is it possible to define object privileges in SLD such as Products, Software Component Versions, Technical Systems and Business System for example, to define which user can modify a Technical System? I assume there's is a way by role and groups on the UME to define privileges to display or modify objects in whole SLD, but I don't know if on a lower level this is possible.
thanks in advance for help and support.
Regards,
Julio Cesar

Hello Julio,
I am not sure if you can define certain UME actions for objects within the SLD. These objects are usually maintained by a SLD administrator. There is however a way to create a new UME role and assign new SLD action to it.
In your Web browser, enter the URL of the Identity Management using the following format:http://<host>:<port>/useradmin .
Create user groups and UME roles of your choice and assign each UME role to the appropriate user group(s) as well as to the UME action(s). You can use the predefined UME roles as a template so create your own UME roles (as descibed in the table above).
If you want to create a UME role for SLD content synchronization or for SLD administration, you need to assign the Destination_Service_Write_Permission UME action, which belongs to thetc~sec~destinations~service service, to your own UME role.
For more information about which UME actions there are available I suggest to use the following site:

System Landscape directory not available error,

I am still a beginner, and I am having some slight trouble understanding, what tools would be needed, and how to install. I am using the forums.
We have the MII Discovery Server up and running.
NWDS Server installation is done.
We have the MII track ready to be used for Development(SLD URL is available) , Userid and password available
I am working on installing the NWDS 7.3 Developer Workspace.
Would I also need to do NWDS Server install on my laptop?
Would these steps be sufficient?
1. Download and install JDK 1.6
2. Copy the file nwds-extsoa-7.3-SP00-PAT0000-win32.zip from:
<your download location>\51039309\DATA_UNITS\JAVA_IDE\distros\com.sap.netweaver.developerstudio.distribution.complete.extsoa\8.30.0.101020102100
to a convenient folder.
3. Extract the content and you will have a folder with name eclipse.
4. Launch the Netweaver Developer Studio from folder eclipse, you may want to create a shortcut on the Desktop.
5. If you haven't maintained JAVA_HOME property or if it's pointing to some other java version, eclipse will complain about it. In the dialog window locate the JDK 1.6 installation. Path to JDK 1.6 should be something like
C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_25\bin
6. Restart the NWDS after this and select a suitable workspace.
7. Set the run time engine in NWDS, by going through the menu path:
Window->Preferences->SAP AS JAVA
Question:
1. I am unable to Set the run time engine in NWDS, please could you give me details steps with what I would need to enter for Instance Hostname and Instance Number...etc
2. As part of Development installation do I have to Modifying the Logon Page? Do I have to go thru the Server installation in order to start developing on eclipse environment?
I do not have the war file. How do i Copy the war file tcsecumelogonui.war from
<Installation drive>:\usr\sap\<SID>\J00\j2ee\cluster\apps\sap.com\com.sap.security.core.logon\servlet_jsp\logon_ui_resources\tcsecumelogonui.war
3. System Landscape directory not available error,
In the Component Browser when I right click and select New u2013 Development Configuration u2013 Import From System Landscape Directory (SLD) u2013 Next (Enter UserID and Password)
Thank you

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)]

Trouble accessing System Landscape directory

Dear Gurus,
I am currently setting up the System Landscape Directory (SLD) on the Solution Manager 4.0 system. I have managed to access the main SLD page using http://server:8000/sld, however when I click on the Adminstrator link, and then eg. 'log'. I will get this message:
500 Internal Server Error SAP J2EE Engine/7.00
Application error occurred during the request procession.
Details:
com.sap.engine.services.servlets_jsp.server.exceptions.WebIOException:
Error compiling [/admin/log.jsp] of alias [sld] of J2EE application [sap.com/com.sap.lcr].
Exception id: [000C29B5E9430058000000320000226800045399F55C32B9]
There are several other links in the SLD Administration that does not work and will incur the same error message as above:
details.jsp
systemmessage.jsp
and many others. I have checked in visual admin and all application s are up. Please advise on my current situation.
With Many Thanks and Best Regards.

Hi,
You dont have to create this user in the system.This is the defualt user created during installation. You will find this in the
001 client. Also to change the password u can use visual admin
or http://ip:5xx00/nwa use j2ee_admin here and login then change the password for the sld user.

When I define my R/3 system in XI SLD,I got CIM_ERR_ALREADY_EXISTS message

CIM_ERR_ALREADY_EXISTS: Instance already exists: SAP_BCSystem.CreationClassName="SAP_BCSystem",Name="BRP.SystemNumber.0020270914.SystemHome.sapprddb"
Before I defined R/3 system in XI SLD wrongly, after that I delete from Business and technical , after that I start new definition.And It gave me error above.
I think some data must be deleted related with the previous definition.
How can I correct this error?
Thanks

There was a BRP system in Class: BC System. I removed it.
And I tryed to add BRP system (technical landscape). It gave me error belowe:
500 Internal Server Error
Web Dynpro Container/SAP J2EE Engine/6.40
Failed to process request. Please contact your system administrator.
Error Summary

You do not have permission to view the System Landscape Directory.

Hello there,
When I accessed my SLD from portal, it took me to the page but kept saying:
- You do not have permission to view the System Landscape Directory. Minimum required: UME role with permission com.sap.lcr.LcrUser and J2EE role LcrUser. See the SLD Post-Installation Guide for details
- SLD not configured; configure the SLD in Administration first.
I searched on these forums for the above error. Got some results, but nothing really substantial that has helped/fixed my problem.
I also read a bit on SLD from the pdf file named: System Landscape
Directory of SAP NetWeaver 2004s
I also worked on the security roles and actions to individual
users or user groups like for ex: the above pdf file advised I map the security roles from Visual Administrator, to the created roles in the portal. I've done that too. Like create a user group: 'SAP_SLD_ADMINISTRATOR' and create a user role corresponding to it, which would be: 'LcrAdministrator'
Then, I went to visual administrator, and clicked on 'Assign User Groups to Roles'
Even after this, I tried to access the SLD from portal: It is still giving me the same error I mentioned above in bold italics.
Can somebody please help me how to fix this issue?
Thanks
Dino.

Graham:
Thank you very much for making the effort to reply to my query.
But, it still hasnt solved my problem yet.. for some reason even though I followed your instructions and did what you advised.
I have attached a screenshot of my Visual Administrator screen that you advised me to modify/change.
Here it is: http://img166.imageshack.us/img166/2259/screenshot002co1.jpg
After I made the changes, I restarted the J2EE server and went to my portal SLD page: [http://org-x:50000/sld]
Tried authenticating usernames: LcrAdministrator and Administrator.
Both attempts resulted in the same error show below:
- You do not have permission to view the System Landscape Directory. Minimum required: UME role with permission com.sap.lcr.LcrUser and J2EE role LcrUser. See the SLD Post-Installation Guide for details
- SLD not configured; configure the SLD in Administration first.
I am wondering, if you would have another workaround regarding this issue, can you please let me know?
Thanks
Dino.

SOLMAN 4.0 SR2 connect to SAP R/3 Three System landscape (DEV QA and PRD)

Hi,
We have successfully installed SOLMAN 4.0 SR2 (ABAP + JAVA) on
WIN2003 SP2 EE MSSQL 2005 EE SP1.
I just want to activate the service so that SOLMAN could see my existing SAP R/3 4.6 C Three system landscape (DEV QAS PRD).
I heard settings should be done on SPRO IMG configs. Could anyone tell me the exact procedure to navigate on it. I see a lot of buttons to config and execute, Just want to make sure everything will be in order.
My SLD is directly installed locally on my SOLMAN server.
Thanks,
Simoun

Hello Simoun,
Telling from your last sentence I assume that you would like to connect SolMan (transaction SMSY) to your locally installed SLD or in other words: replicate SLD system data into SOLMAN system landscape SMSY.
Please check this document:
http://service.sap.com/~form/sapnet?_SHORTKEY=01100035870000538663&_SCENARIO=01100035870000000202&_OBJECT=011000358700000530282007E
Here you find information covering prerequisites, required SAP Solution Manager IMG configuration to connect SLD and SMSY and frequently ask questions (FAQ-like).
I hope this helps you to get started.
Regards,
Doreen

Doubts in System Landscape Directory

Hello All,
I got some basic doubts in SLD.
Why do we need to store the information about the installed products and to be installed products in software catalog?
And, what is this techncal system?
After reading few help sites, what I understand is the following:
For example SAP is a product and CRM etc are the software components. We create the technical system for this product like for client 100 we create a technical system and for client 200 we create another technical system. And we give some logical names, called business sytems, to these technical systems.
My second question is, why do we need to create all these information(the information in SLD)? Why cant we directly create messages types, message interfaces etc and configure them in Integration directory without using the information in SLD like business system?
In Integration Directory, we say that the sender is one Business System and receiver is another business system. These business system are created based on some technical systems. These technical systems are based on some software components and product. This product and the software component might be a installed or non installed product. Then how do we can get the connection between the sender and the business system? Can you please explain me the idea behind considering the sender and reciever as business systems.
Can anybody please clear the above doubts?
Priya

Hi Priya,
SLD:
The System Landscape Directory of SAP NetWeaver (SLD) serves as a central information repository for your system landscape. A system landscape consists of a number of hardware and software components that depend on each other with regard to installation, software updates, and demands on interfaces.
- so talking about the working of an SLD, here if any information is required for the integration server regarding the systems(logical or physical) and the software (installed products) it refers to the SLD.
- to tell you about the other features it has....it captures the dimensions of the system landscape like solution dimension, transport dimension and technical dimension.
- putting it in short XI IS A CLIENT OF SLD
Also go thru this link and understand more about SLD <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/31/f0ff69551e4f259fdad799a229363e/frameset.htm">System Landscape Directory</a>

SOFTWARE CATALOG:
The SLD contains a Software Catalog of all installable SAP products and software components. The Software Catalog includes information about support packages and dependencies between the products and software components. This information is the basis for the description of the system landscape.
Also go thru this link and understand more about Software Catalog <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/a2/2999ef97ea2b4790165f9ca5c05c41/content.htm">Software Catalog</a>
TECHNICAL SYSTEM, BUSINESS SYSTEMS, SOFTWARE PRODUCTS:
Technical system correlates the software to the physical host on which it is installed
Or in other words Technical systems are application systems that are installed in your system landscape.
- they are actually the basis for defining the business systems.
- we assign a technical system to a business system to help the SLD make the appropriate association.
- the software products used by the business system are got from the technical system definition.
- to note 1 technical system can have more than one business system assigned to it....and as told the SLD make the appropriate association between them.
Also go thru this link and understand more about each of it:
<a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/24/8fa93e08503614e10000000a114084/content.htm">Technical Systems</a>

Unable to read software component version from System Landscape Directory "

I've worked in past creating/importing SWCV, but this is new system PI7.0 and stuck.
A) Is my understanding on resolution correct?
Should I go and apply notes 940309 and create client copy of existing client 001
 OR
change role of client 001; SXMB_ADMIN -> 'Integration Engine Configuration' to 'Integration Server'
I have no problem in using client 001 as Integration server, all I want is import of SWCV to work. Thanks. Appreciate the help.
B) Here is what I have done and the error:
1) Followed weblog below and created product, software component, technical system, business sytem in SLD.
/people/srinivas.vanamala2/blog/2007/02/05/step-by-step-guide-xml-file-2-xml-file-scenario-part-i
2) When I import the SWC from integration repository getting error
(Unable to read software component version from System Landscape Directory "server:5<system number>00").
C) Pointers used from the forum to debug the issue, but still no luck
Below are the points checked from the forum and all steps are correct, but still have issues with the import
1) check the RFCs SAPSLDAPI, LCRSAPRFC, connection test pass as the program ID registered with Jco
2) T-code SLDCHECK no errors (followed http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/de/78/20244134a56532e10000000a1550b0/content.htm)
3) T-code SLDAPICUST got user PIAPPLUSER, pwd is correct (reset the pwd)
4) logged using PIAPPLUSER http://server:port/sld and it works
5) One of the weblog SLD Check Failed (LCR_LIST_BUSINESS_SYSTEMS function doesn't work) referred to apply notes 940309
Notes: 940309
You are installing 'SAP NetWeaver 2004s SR1 ABAP+Java' Usage Type 'NetWeaver Process Integration (PI)'.
You don't want to use the default client 001, but another client as Integration Server.

applied portion (PIPostInstallProcess) of OSS notes 940309 and it resolved.
Note:
I still retained client 001 and didn't do client copy as mentioned in the notes. The wizard based CTC tool helped. Here are the details if someone has similar issue and want to know further details:
A NetWeaver Process Integration (PI) Installation (ABAP+Java) has two parts: Installation and configuration. The former is done by the Installer, the latter by the 'Central Template Configuration' (CTC) Tool.
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/14/39084136b5f423e10000000a155106/frameset.htm
1. Call the wizard-based configuration tool as described in Configuration Wizard.
 2. Select the scenario PI and the task PIPostInstallProcess.
 3. Choose Execute.
A list of the steps to be executed by the wizard is displayed.
 4. Choose Install.
