Transport DataSouorce Hierarchy (RSA6)

Question

Hello gurus,
I am finding a difficulty to transport the datasource (RSA6)list from R3 system.
I created a custom node (say XXX) under SAP (main Node) in Tcode rsa6. And I assigned all the custom datasources to that node. When I transport the datasource to QA, node XXX is under NODESNOTCONNECTED Node.
In QA system when I open the datasource and say display then there is an error message "There is no Component by name XXX"
Can you please help me out onthis.
Thank you.

hi Super Man,
you need to transport the application component hierarchy, check oss note 382471 - BW-OLTP-APCO: How do I transport it?
Application Component Hierarchy Transport
Urgent: Missing Application Component Hierarchy
or run transaction se03 >> change object directory entry, in next screen, last blank line, entry object type DSAA, object APCO (or APCO_MERGED) then change object directory entry / package from $TMP to your package.
after replicate datasource in bw, you need to click 'reload tree', rsa1->source system->source system overview. also check note 534894
hope this helps.
382471 - BW-OLTP-APCO: How do I transport it?
Symptom
An application component hierarchy in the OLTP source system was changed however it was not written to a transport request.
Other terms
APCO, RSA8, application components, application component hierarchy
Solution
Create a transport request in the OLTP System and manually insert the following transport object:
R3TR DSAA APCO
As a result, the active version of the application component hierarchy is transported. The active version is the one you call from transaction RSA8 or from the IMG (transaction SBIW) -> 'Postprocessing DataSources'-> 'Changing application component hierarchy'.
If you want to transport the inactive version (version "D"), the transport object is:
R3TR DSAD APCO
