Three-system landscape for Business Objects

Hello!
I'm new at Business Objects and I don't have imagination about it landscape. Do I need to make three-system landscape (D Q P) for BO with broadcasting to BI (D Q P) systems correspondingly? Or maybe I need make all customizing in one BO system? Could someone advice any documentation about lanscape for BO and BI?
Thank

System requirement for Business Object XI 3.1

Hi, I am wondering if someone can gives us some basic information regarding the system requirement to setup the Business Object 3.1 enterprise. We have tried 2CPU & 2GB memory in a VM environment, it ran very very slow and CPU went up 100% very easily, then we tried 4CPU & 2 GB memory(VM). it did help some but still very slow. Can anyone help? Thanks in advance.

Hi Max,
The problem you are facing seems particular to your VM usage. You may limit the size of memory swapping between host/guest.
Also find documents that you'll find useful:

Supported Operating Systems for Business Objects Enterprise

I am unable to locate information on the supported operating systems platforms for Business Objects Enterprise version (11.0.0.1775) build (1775) within the BO support documentation.
I want to know if this version of BO is supported on AIX (xlC.aix50.rte version 8)?

Not sure which exact version is 11.0.0.1775, but it's definitively BO XI release 1, so I guess this document is your best guide:
http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/boc/index?rid=/library/uuid/a03454bd-a03e-2b10-98b7-fc11486d87bf
And it mentions AIX 5.1 as a minimum so you may be out of luck...

Client Roles in a Three System Landscape

I initially post this Question in other forum:
Hi all,
We have a three system landscape. In the Development client, we have the Customizing Client, the Sandbox Cliet and a Training client. I have some questions about this configuration:
Acording to System and Client Settings - System Administration Assistant (BC-RRR) - SAP Library, Training client must be in Quality Assurance System, and it must be created by client copy from client QTST (it gets the transports from Custimizing). In this Training System we must create users for all our key-users to training. We must not create any user for key-users in sandbox client (this client is for the DEV team). is that ok?
What are the downsides of having out TRAINING client in the Development System?
Now, a consultant is asking me to open some modifications in the TRAINING client: He needs to load Exchange rates (OB08) in that client, but he is getting "Client is not modifiable". They are asking me to create users for key-users in the sandbox client and the training client.
I need to know if they are using the system in the right way. I dont want the system to become a mess.
I been reading this notes: SAP Note 356483. I don´t know what this means: "Now the corresponding Customizing object is no longer subject to the transport connection and is excluded from the changeability check. The change is active in all clients of the system. You can also change the Customizing object in a locked client (independent of the client role). However, now it is also no longer possible to manually transport entries of the view or table."
Aditional notes:
SAP Note 78329, sap kb 356483
Thanks for your help!
One person answere me this:
Hi
You should create your question in the appropriate area :
Software Logistics
The drawback of having training client in dev system is that it could be negatively impacted by ongoing changes performed in that system (custom program that are changed, not working...)
Some specific customizing changes can be set as current setting and thus can be modified without needing to open customizing but only if the client is set as productive.
There is also a way do deactivate modification recording of objects (aka deactivating the transport connection) but, if you apply this change for this activity/object, you won't be able any more to record change into transport orders
Regards
356483 - Customizing: Current settings in the test system
77430 - Customizing: Current settings

Hi Andres
I do not really now the exact impact, it might prevent some business data from being mass processed or overwritten...
I did had to deactivate the transport connection on specific objects/activities for some customers.
It depends on the frequency of that activity. I don't like to open the client to modification as you can sometime forget to close it back, and sometime also it gave the opportunity to other consultants to make changes that would create inconsistency among envt in the whole landscape.
At least activating the recording of changes could help in tracking the source of modifications
RZ10 => rec/client=ALL
STMS => RECCLIENT=ALL

What is the Three System Landscape in SAP

Hi All,
Please explain me What is the Three system Landscape in SAP.
Thank you very much,
Kavya.

1. Database Layer
The database layer consists of a central database system containing all of the data in the R/3 System. The database system has two components - the database management system (DBMS), and the databse itself. SAP does not manufacture its own database. Instead, the R/3 System supports the following database systems from other suppliers: ADABAS D, DB2/400 (on AS/400), DB2/Common Server, DB2/MVS,INFORMIX, Microsoft SQL Server, ORACLE, and
ORACLE Parallel Server. The database does not only contain the master data and transaction data from your business applications, all data for the entire R/3 System is stored there. For example, the database contains the control and Customizing data that determine how your R/3 System runs. It also contains the program code for your applications. Applications consist of program code, screen
definitions, menus, function modules, and various other components. These are stored in a special section of the database called the R/3 Repository, and are accordingly called Repository objects. You work with them in the ABAP Workbench.
2. Application Layer
The application layer consists of one or more application servers and a message server. Each application server contains a set of services used to run the R/3 System. Theoretically, you only need one application server to run an R/3 System. In practice, the services are distributed across more than one application server. This means that not all application servers will provide the full range of services. The message server is responsible for communication between the application servers. It passes requests from one application server to another within the system. It also contains information about application server groups and the current load balancing within them. It uses this information to choose an appropriate server when a user logs onto the system.
3. Presentation Layer
The presentation layer contains the software components that make up the SAPgui (graphical user interface). This layer is the interface between the R/3 System and its users. The R/3 System uses the SAPgui to provide an intuitive graphical user interface for entering and displaying data. The presentation layer sends the users input to the application server, and receives data for display from it. While a SAPgui component is running, it remains linked to a users terminal
session in the R/3 System.

EWA for Business Objects (XI 3.1) within SAP Solution Manager

Hello!
We use Business Objects (XI 3.1) and would like to get weekly a EWA report within our SAP Solution Manager.
Our SAP Solution Manger has only ABAP stack and it has the SPS version 25.
We also do not use Wily Introscope/Diagnostics and E2E tools within SAP Solution Manager.
Question
Is it possible to set up EWA for Business Objects with our requirements (SOLMAN with ABAP stack and without E2E/Diagnostics tools)?

Hello,
The short answer is no. You can verify this in SAP Note 1507629 - Preparing a BOE system for Service Sessions in Sol. Manager.
"...1.) Managed System Setup
Perform the Managed System Setup for SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise as
described in the "End-to-End Root Cause Analysis System Landscape Setup
Guide". This guide can be found in the SAP Service Market Place:
-> http://service.sap.com/diagnostics
-> Navigate to the "Media Library"
-> Open the document "SAP Solution Manager Landscape Setup Guide"
Please ensure that you perform all steps mentioned in the guide which
are relevant for your product and version. Please read also SAP note
1357901, which is also referred to in the above mentioned setup guide."
So this is a requirement. There are also pdf documetns attached to this note that describe how to setup the EWA in Solution Manager. EGI_SBOP_EWA_part1.pdf and EGI_SBOP_EWA_part2.pdf.
The fact you have no Java stack and have not installed Diagnostics, just means it has not been done. It can be done and then you can do a managed system setup, and the balance of tasks required to prepare the system and Solution manager to generate EWA reports for the BOE system. Its just more work, not a show stopper.

Paul

Language attributes for business objects ERC_CDCY

Hello,
I need to activate TREX index ERC_CDCY from our e-recruiting system using SES_ADMIN transaction.
When I activate it, I receive error message UNCAUGHT_EXCEPTION (CX_SY_OPEN_SQL_DB) at the
relational index level (Relation of candidacy).
I opened a message with SAPnet and got the following answer:
Indexes are only created in english compared to others systems that contains indexes in both languages (EN, FR). We could not find any french attributes for business objects ERC_CDCY which is required (at least 7 words) to index it in french language.
Do you know which transaction or SPRO menu path I could use to maintain de language attributes and the 7 words?
Thanks for you help
Hugo

Hello Huga,
About maintaining the language in E-Rec you can have a look at the table
V_T77RCF_SELANGU, there you can maintain the different language.
The exception you are getting might be coming from the TREX side. please check the following notes:

How should i add the new system in landscape.
1)Through extended Tranport
2) is there any virtual system addition which can help
3)how can i preserve my current STMS configuration for backup.
Kindly help with the approach and procedure for the same.

Hello Swati,
You can add another QA system using normal STMS config. Just need to create another delivery route from DEV to QA.
Older STMS configuration is stored using version management. You can later extract the older version from Tcode : STMS -> Overview -> Transport routes-> Configuration menu -> Get other version.

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.

I appreciate your help.
Regards,

Single Sign On set up and every application is working on portal.
But the ping always fails.
I do not understand one more thing from help.sap.com on System Landscape for ESS.
Documentation says:
Set up your system landscape. To do this, set up the following systems:
what kind of system this is: SAP_R3 or SAP_BW/SAP_CRM. In standard portal system template, there is no system like "J2EE engine".

Version Control for BUSINESS OBJECTS repository

Hi,
Do we have any version control for business objects repository?
Thanks

Hi
I am hoping someone can answer my Version Control queries. The LCM document is limited in its detail on VM.
I am currently testing the BO LCM 3.1 and while it appears very easy to use especially for promotion, the Version Control Manager seems to be lacking in controls and a clear promotion path from dev to test to uat to prod.
We have set up 2 identical environments for UAT and PROD.
And using the Version Control part of LCM creating version control for a universe.
Logged into VM in UAT
We have selected a universe
Added it to VM
Made a change to the universe in Designer
Exported it
Then Checked it in
Can now see 2 versions in the history and the VMS Version. All good
I then click on swap system and log into PROD
The VM history is also there in PROD
I have a number of concerns and questions and can't seem to find the solution to them anywhere.
1. VM seems to be lacking a controlled process from all the environments. Basically we want to deploy following this path;
Dev - Test - UAT - PROD
There does not seem to be any controls or security which would stop you from GET VERSION from the DEV environment and putting that straight into PROD. Obviously we would not want that to happen.
We would only want to GET VERSION from UAT
Similarly for UAT We would only want to GET VERSION from TEST
And for TEST We would only want to GET VERSION from DEV.
Granted, we currently only have 2 identical environments.
But Is there controls that would stop you when in PROD from getting versions from any other system other than UAT?
Also is there any reason why no promotion is required when using VM.
This seems to negate the Promotion Function of the LCM
Any advise would be greatly appreciated with this.
Many thanks
Eilish

Trex search for business object in portal

Hi
I would like to build a KM search iView in portal which enables users to search for business object from backend system.
I have built up the indices for business object in the backend system. In portal->trex monitor->display index details, I can see the indices which are created from backend system. But soemhow, I feel the indices are not usable, as I can not see them in the indexing monitor. And after I created an KM search iview with search component 'search_input_indexes', my index created from backend can also not be shown in the preview of the iview.
I guess there is some step missing. Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks and best regards
Yingzhi

Hi Yingzhi,
with current releases, business objects indexed through the ABAP-based Search Engine Service (SES) or directly from certain SAP solutions to TREX are not by default accessible from KM.
The next release after NW2004s will enable Enterprise Search and provide the meta-search engine for parallel search access to business objects and KM documents.
Please see the following presentation for some explanations on SES and Enterprise Search and note stated time-lines:
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/73f3eedf-0501-0010-0aa6-950694c02f99
In some monitors that access TREX directly from the portal, you may see the business object indexes, but they are not actually known to KM.
Regards, Karsten

CCMS for Business Objects

All,
I am trying to configure to ccms setup for Business Objects XI 3.1 but could not find right documentation specific to BO.
We need to monitor Tomcat, some of Bo server and also file systems.
Have anyone done anything with CCMS on BO ?
Thanks in Advance for the help !
Raj

I don't know about CCMS and BO.
But if you need to monitor BO, you can use the probes.
You have to create an automation process yourself.
I created a console app in .net that runs the probes every 15 minutes and sends me an email everytime there 's an error.
The probes are really easy to use and install.
The output files can be used with TIvoli or other monitoring tool.
