Unable to change the data source of SAP system

Dear all,
We have install SAP netweaver EHP1 standalone java on oracle 10.2.0.5 on windows 2008 R2.
while installation i have given the central SLD system as solman,
By mistake i have deleted the system from SMSY.. now when i createed the system manually i am unable to change the data resource as SLD due to this i can start my SMD configuration
Request please let me know how to resolve this issue.
Thanks
Paresh

Hi Paresh,
You can proceed with deleting your SAP system from SMSY (along with connected technical content such as AS Java definition) and the run the LANDSCAPE FETCH through transaction SMSY_SETUP to have the correct definition of your SAP system in SMSY.
Following this, you could use the addon Landscape Verification (a new thing I learnt today!!!) to check the correctness of transaction SMSY. The following link details the Landscape verification 1.0 for SolMan:

Hope this helps sort out your issue.

Trying to change the data source for a Crystal Report.

The method below represents my best attempt to programatically change the data source of a Crystal Report. The goal is to have a routine that will update the data source for reports after they have been distributed to production servers. So far I have not been successful in saving the report back to the CMS. No exceptions are thrown, but when I view the Database Configuration of the report in the CMC nothing has changed.


Am I missing a step, or is there another way to accomplish this?


Thank you.

Justin,

Thank you for the reply. Time constraints have not allowed me to post back to this tread
till now. I will try your suggestion. My assumption is that Save the report back to the
info store refers to IInfoStore.commit(IInfoObjects).


I'm afraid that I do not understand why I don't want to change the report client document,
or why successfully exporting the report with the new login/password is not what I
want to do. Any explanation on that statement would be appreciated.


I did find a way to accomplish my goal. It involved adding the SSOKEY property to the
logon property bag. Below you'll see my revised code which modifies the report logon and
server. I have no idea what
this does, and SAP support has not been able to tell me why it works. However, what I
discovered is that if I changed the report option, Database Configuration -> When
viewing report:, in the CMS to Use same database logon as when report
is run from Prompt the user for database logon, then the
SSOKEY property had been added to the logon property bag having an empty string as its
value. This allowed me to successfullyupdate and save the modified logon back to the CMS.


So I took a chance and added code to always add the SSOKEY property with an empty string
as its value, and I could then successfully modify and save the report's logon info
and server. Again, I don't know what this means, but it has worked so far. If anyone has
some insight or comments, either are welcome. Thank you in advance.

Can we change the Data source in AO ?

Hi Folks,
Environment: SAP HANA on AO
I have the following scenario , Am creating a report on one Calculation View: CV and have done some analysis where I have pulled in some dimensions and kept some background filters.
Now I have to generate the same report on another Calculation View: CV2 ( Similar to structure of CV ) and compare the reports. Is there any way to edit copy the previous report and change the data source? Can you guide me on that?
Regards,
Krishna Tangudu

Hi,
You can exchange the calc view by clicking on the button next to the data source name in the tab "components", but when you do this, the new data source will overwrite the settings and filters from the previous data source. So no, there is not a supported way of exchanging the datasource and keeping the filters of the previous data source.
Best regards,
Victor

Changing the Data source in Business Objects XI

Hi,
Is it possible to change the data source(not universe) in runtime to generate business objects reports. I am using BOXI 3.1.
Below is the code I am using to change the universe in runtime. I would like to change this so that i can change the data source instead of changing the universe. My intention is to generate report from multipple database using same universe. Right now I am using multipple universes connected to multiple datasources to achieve this. I am using Report Engine SDK(Java).
 if("Webi".equals(mDocKind))
 // Added for multiple database support
 DataProviders dataProvs = documentInstance.getDataProviders();
 try{
 //To support multiple queries in BO reports
 for(int count=0;count<dataProvs.getCount(); count++){
 DataProvider dp=dataProvs.getItem(count);
 DataSource ds= dp.getDataSource();
 infoUniverseObjects = getUniverseObject(infoStore,NewUniverseName);
 infoUniverseObject = (IInfoObject)infoUniverseObjects.get(0);
 String newDsCuid = infoUniverseObject.getCUID();
 dataProvs.changeDataSource(ds.getID(), "UnivCUID=" + newDsCuid, true);
 if(dataProvs.mustFillChangeDataSourceMapping())
 // Re-map data source to target Universe objects
 ChangeDataSourceMapping mapping = dataProvs.getChangeDataSourceMapping();
 ChangeDataSourceObjectMapping[] maps = mapping.getAllMappings();
 dataProvs.setChangeDataSourceMapping();
 }//for dataProvs.getCount()
 }catch(Exception e)
 mLogger.info("BOReportObject","createReport","Inside multiple data providers loop"+e.getMessage());
Thanks in advance
Shameer
Edited by: Shameertaj on May 20, 2009 3:08 AM

Hi Shameer,
I think this is only possible with the Universe Designer SDK (which is only available in COM).
Please kindly refer to the API reference for the Universe Designer SDK for more details:
http://help.sap.com/businessobject/product_guides/boexir31/en/bodessdk.chm
Also, please note that changing the universe connection when viewing a document on-demand is not recommended because this could lead to possible issues.
For example:
Two users trying to view documents that uses the same universe at approximately the same time.
But user A wants to use connection X and user B wants to use connection Y.
This could lead to an error while openning the document or while refreshing/retrieving the the data.
Hope this helps.

Dan

Unable to change the data in PSA

Hello All,
I have a delta failure because of invalid characters in one of the field and now i wanted to change the PSA. I have deleted the request from all data targets and started changing the error record, it is not showing all columns from PSA hence i am unable to change the data in required field.
Could you please let me know how will i see all columns from PSA. Thanks

Hi Ashok,
To increase/decrease the number of columns that are displayed on the menu from the Settings option select Change display variants
Also if you want to see say all the failed records you can sort the order of the data using the Status column

BOFC Unable to start the data source

Hi there,
i've done a standalone install using SQL 2008 R2 express. But i'm unable to start the data source and get this error:
Failed to start data source
Failed to start server instances on machine DELL1.
Failed to initialize server configured on machine DELL1.
Class not registered
Thanks,
Anees

Ok, problem solved.
I had to create a seperate DCOM user and assign it to the following roles in windows:
log on as a batch job
log on as a service
then assign this DCOM user to the Ctbroker and CTserver. As i'm not running this on a domain, there was no need to use 'packet level authentication'. So i set the authentication level to none.
There was no need to use the web based admin interface. Ctadmin.msc worked perfectly.
Thanks,

How to change the Data sources after deploying the application ??

Hi All,
i want to know how to change the Data sources after deploying the application to the application server ???
I'm using Oracle Application Server 10g Release 3 (10.1.3.1.0)

Can you access the Enrprise Manager website of the target Application Server from your location? If so, you can change the datasource in it. If not, yo can bundle the datasource definition in your archive and use that one instead of the one configured in the target OC4J container. Or this will just be the responsability of your customer: whenever you send a new WAR file, they have to modify the datasource if needed and deploy the application?

How do I change the Data Source? Please help

Hello Everyone,
Can anyone provide me the steps to change the extractor for a data source? Here is the situation; we have a Z data source and under data source display transaction RSA2, I see that the extraction methods is V (Transparent table or DB View) and the extractor is a Z table which we maintain in R/3 for mapping the SAP g/l accounts to Hyperion accounts. Since, we have introduced/created a new Z table in R/3 for SAP to Hyperion accounts mappings because of changes in Hyperion reporting system the BW system has no latest data/data from that is maintained in new Z table hence, it is appearing to me that once I update the data source with new Z table in the extractor will update BW with mapping information that is in the new Z table. Please let me know if I am wrong and suggest me the right way to deal with the above issue.
If updating the data source solves my problem then how do I go about doing that? Can I make the changes in R/3 production system directly or have to come through transport? Please provide me the steps to make those changes. Points will be awarded for the help.
Thanks in advance,
Kumar

Hi Ravi,
Here is what I meant for change in mapping and new mapping
1. For example R/3 account 1234 is mapped to Hyperion account ABC in old Z table and that was copied to new Z table since, we want to use that new Z table going forward but, in the new table the mapping is changed i.e., R/3 account 1234 mapped to Hyperion account XYZ
2. All new accounts created in R/3 after we started using new Z table are mapped to the Hyperion accounts only in the new Z table, meaning all the new mappings are only updated in new Z table.
Please reply.
Thanks,
Kumar

Changing the data source of a Crystal Report

Post Author: starmizzle
CA Forum: Crystal Reports
We're running a trial of BusinessObjects XI Release 2 to see if it fits our needs.
We were told that we could import and publish our existing Crystal Reports and then later on go back and change their data sources to point to new universes as they're built.
So I've published a simple Crystal Report that I can run and modify through Infoview. And I've created a universe with the appropriate fields and calculations that it needs. So how do I force my published report to use the new universe as its data source instead of the system DSN it had when it was made?

Unable to capture the Data Source into a Transport Request

Hi All,
We have a product hierarchy and we are using the data source :4R_PRODH_D_LGEN_HIER for the hierarchy.
Now we need to transport this structure to the quality environment but we were not able to capture the datasource:4R_PRODH_D_LGEN_HIER into a transport request.
When ever we activate the data source:4R_PRODH_D_LGEN_HIER it is asking for the Package and the Transport Request Number.If we give these details and save it, data source is not getting captured in the request, only the "bject Directory Entry" is getting captured.
Can someone please guide me on how to capture the datasource under "Data Sources in BW" in a transport request.
Regards,
Sachin Dehey.

Hi Sachin,
Hierarachy datasource is not captured as Attributes and Text Datasource. So what ever you have done is correct.
What ever is captured in Object Directory Entry is correct. So go ahead with your transports, once transport is done check the Hierarchy Infopackage with Available OLTP hierarchies and load the data.
Most important thing first see that the all Master & Transactional Datasources are transported in R/3 Dev to QA to PRD
In BW, datasources are not transported, only their replica is transported.
Transportation of Datasource is done in R/3. Only their replica is transported in BW.
So wht ever you have done till now is correct. So go ahead.
While attaching Hierarchy Datasource it is captured only in "Object Directory Entry"
Regards,
Vishnu.

Error while Replicating the Data Source in Quality System....

Dear Expert,
I have created a generic data source in R/3 Dev system and I replicated the data source to BW DEV system. Everything is fine in DEV system.
I have transported the Data Source to R/3 Quality System. And transported the related objects in BW DEV system to BW QUALITY system.
Now I am getting the error as follows :
BW QUA System --> RSA1 --> Source System --> Data source Overview --> Sales & Distribution --> _REPLICATE_
*DATASOURCE*.( clicked )
Its moving to another screen (R/3 QUALITY) , but it is coming as a LOGIN screen. Its askong for the USER name and Password. And when I click on BACK button , its givin following pop-up
RFC connection to source system LOGSYS is damaged ==> no Metadata upload
What could be the issue ?? Please suggest.
Thanks,
Sanjana

Hi saveen,
Yes I transported in that manner.
I checked in Source System ( RSA13):
Its giveng the pop-up ,
RFC connection check failed. Check connection
Please suggest, how can I proceed ?
Thanks,
Sanjana

Changing the data source from DB2 to ORACLE in SBOP 4.0

Hi Gurus,
We have done SBOP 4.0 SP 2 installation successfully on Linux by choosing DB2 as default Database as suggested by SAP as there is some issue with RH LINUX 5.5 version. Now, we need to change the CMS data source back to ORACLE 11G. For that we have to execute cmsdbsetup.sh and go with the option of "copy" (Copy data from another Data Source). We need to provide the target/destination CMS database in my case ORACLE (TNS & CMS user) details. And also we need to provide the source CMS user (DB2) details. As we went with the bundled/default DB2 installation, we are not able to find the cms user name and password (no where during the installation it prompted to provide cms username and password).
What will be the default cms username /password in DB2?
Thanks,
Sandeep

Hi,
The work around is to create/add an extra node (SIA Node) with default servers option for the existing CMS and provided my ORACLE CMS username/password along with the TNS Names using cmsdbsetup.sh. Make sure that this new node is visible in the Servers section of the CMC console (i.e. http://<webappserver>:8080/BOE/CMC-->servers) and also see that all the servers should be running. Then you can delete the old SIA which was connected to DB2 from the CMC->servers.
Thanks,
Sandeep
