Unable to mount MDM Console

Hi,
I am new to SAP MDM. I was just trying to mont the console(MDM_TestConsole) and was trying to start it by right clicking and start MDM Server. The system prompts me with this message below.
*Error Starting: MDMTestConsole(MDM Server): The machine 'MDM_TestConsole' is not Windows-based.The MDM server cannot start from this application;please use CLIX on the machine instead*_
Thank You,
KishoreJ.

Hi Krishore,
you get this error due to various reasons, one of which i faced. The problem i had was, my console and server not being in the same network, they were separated by an proxey. You make sure that they are in the same network.
Secondly please check whether you installed you MDM Server or not. Without which also u will be getting this error.
In case this are not the issues then please let us know.

  • Unable to mount MDM repository

    hello,
    I'm working with MDM console, I'm able to mount the MDM Server successfuly but when I mount a existing repository, the repository appears with a grey padlock and no tables and subtables appear.
    Any idea?
    Thanks in advance,
    Marta.

    Hi,
    This happenns when there is version mismatch between MDM Repository and the Client used to mount the repository.
    Try to Update the Repository by right clicking on the repository and select Update Repository option.
    Also check the version of the Console and the Repository

  • MDM 71 - mdm console and clix - unable to connect to database server

    Hi,
    environment, MDM 7.1, AIX 6, Oracle 10.2.0.4 (installed as part of a standalone java AS)
    i've an issue. I have installed MDM 71 via sapinst, before that I installed a standalone java application server. During the installation, i gave the 'oracle client', 'oracle home' and 'oracle sqlplus utility' to be those of the oracle database installed for the java AS.
    After sapinst completed I tested my connection to the database via
    tnsping <SID> = OK
    sqlplus system/passwd@<SID> = OK
    When i start up the mdm console (7.1.02.90) i can mount the MDM server, BUT when I try to configure the database settings i get
    error  'unable to connect to database server'
    I get the same error when i use clix dblist
    Error: 0x84020004, Unable to connect with Database Server
    Has anybody got any ideas.

    To see why the MDM is not able to connect to database, do the following:
    % cd /usr/sap/<SID>/MDSxx/log
    % ls -ltr
    You will find last updated log file with name like MDS_LogXXUX101224X164953.csv
    % tail -100 MDS_LogXXUX101224X164953.csv
    You will see the reason for not being able to connect. If the reason is:
    ",MDSAdminServerXGetAvailableReps,Oracle_DBConnection.cpp,205,,,,server_user,server_global,,,
    2011-09-23T06:10:48.933,6       ,24,"Service 'SID', Schema 'system', ERROR CODE=12154 ||| ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified

  • MDM console GUI on Windows is not mounting the MDM server on Solaris

    Hello MDM experts,
    This is kind of administrative problem. I am basis person, installing SAP MDM 5.5 SP04 for the first time.
    I have configured the MDM server (mds) on solaris 10 system. I have also configured MDM import server(mdis) and Syndication serever (mdss) on the same machine. I have installed the database software and configured the empty repository on the same host machine.
    So, Database and all the 3 MDM services (mds,mdis,mdss) are running on Solaris machine.
    After that, I installed "MDM console fat client GUI" component on my desktop and trying to "mount the server" by specifying the "hostname" of the solaris machine where MDM services are running.
    But I am not able to mount it...it says invalid server and does not mount.
    Any idea what might be the problem ????
    I referred following link :
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_mdmgds55/helpdata/EN/8e/9f9c427055c66ae10000000a155106/frameset.htm
    which says, you should have administrative right on Solaris machine where MDM server is running....but how do I have that being a Windows user ???
    Please advise.

    Hello Mark,
    1. When I right click on the "SAP MDM servers" node in "Console Hierarchy" pane on the left hand side of the Console GUI, and select "Mount MDM Server..." option in context menu, I get a dialog box for entering my MDM server name.
    I typed in the fully qualified host name of my solaris server where "mds-r" is running.
    When I click "OK" button, it adds an entry in "Console Hierarchy" on left hand side, but the entry comes with "Yellow exclamation Mark" sign. Also it says Status "Invalid" when I see the "MDM servers" section on right hand side top.
    When I right click on my newly created entry of MDM server, all the options on context menu like "Mount Repository, Create Repository, Connect to MDM server" look greyed out. Only the option of "Unmount MDM server" seems to be enabled
    2. I tried to do the same thing on 2 different Windows machines and got the same output.

    Bharat

  • When mount MDM server on MDM console...MDM Console hangs.

    Hi,
    when i try to mount MDM server on MDM console, MDM Console hangs and then i have to stop MDM console with task manager.
    For this i have tried with restarting  MDM server - then also issue was not resolved, then i have rebooted the server, then issue resolved.
    But rebooting the server is not permanent solution, this problem occurs everything next 3-4 days.
    Please let me know the cause and it's solution if anyone has faced the similar issue.

    Hi Murtaza,
    This may be due to the memory full issue. It is advisable to allocate appropriate memory in the RAM where server is running. Generally it will be done by the DB team or Linux/unix team. Raise this ticket to your concerned teams.

  • Error in starting MDM Server from MDM Console

    Hi,
    I have installed SAP MDM 5.5 SP05 on Windows 2003 Server.
    When i try to start the MDM Server (i.e. MDM Service) from the MDM console it gives me the following error:
    <i>Error Starting apmdmd(MDM Server): The machine 'apmdmd' is not Windows-based. The MDM server cannot be started from this application; please use CLIX on the machine instead. </i>
    But if i start the MDM Service manually and then mount the server, it works fine.
    Kindly help.
    Regards,
    Chintan Sheth

    It sounds to me like a problem potentially with either the permissions of the Windows user or perhaps a software firewall. The Console uses a low-level Windows API function to determine if the target machine on which MDS is installed is Windows-based. This function may be blocked by some OS or firewall-level setting. This may be the case even if you are able to use the same client machine to connect to the target machine via the Service Control Manager and start MDS from there.
    I would like to help with this problem, but I need to know a few more things:
    When the problem occurs, is the Console running on the same Windows machine as MDS?
    You mentioned Windows 2003 Server... when you run the Console on this machine, are you logged in as an Administrator of the machine? And do you still get the error when you attempt to start MDS from within the Console?
    Once MDS is started, and you mount it within the Console, are you having any other problems, such as logging in to a repository, or viewing logs?
    Is there a firewall installed on the machine or machines that the software is installed on? We may have to review the settings of the firewall, or try temporarily disabling it (on both ends, or at least on the machine running MDS), to see if the problem goes away -- then we'll know the problem is with the firewall settings.
    CLIX is a fine workaround if you can use it, but clearly this problem needs to be rectified.

  • Issue in Posting Messages from XI to MDM Console

    Helloo Experts,
    I am trying to Post the Message from XI to SAP MDM Console. When I am trying to post a test message it appears success in XI and it is not visible in SAP MDM.
    But, the logs of MDM shows the Namespace and Interface were not registered.
    Can any one tell me how I can register my Namespaces in the SAP MDM console?
    From some of the previous topics I can understand that to register any interface I need to have the below details
    Namespace :
    Interface :
    Bean :
    Method :
    I can provide the Namespace and Interface which I am using to post the messages to SAP MDM console.
    Can any one tell me where do I can find the Bean and Method of the particular Inbound interface?
    Cheers!
      Ram

    Hello,
    I think I clearly didn't explain my problem.
    My Scenario is to post the message from SAP XI to one more External SAP system using HTTP cc (RFC destination)
    Unfortunately that External System has been built on SAP MDM.
    As per XI it is picking the message from the Source and successfully sending to the Receiver.
    But at Receiver side we donu2019t see any message. But we can see certain Logs stating that
    Error in processing the Inbound Message Exception:-Unable to Process the Message with Message ID u201C*********u201D with u201CNameSpace#Inbound InterfaceNameu201D is not Registered.
    I want to know how to register the namespace and the Interface name of XI system ( my own system ) in External SAP System.
    Cheers!

    Hey Akhil,
    In the MDM console right click on the SAP MDM SERVER and Mount the MDM Server by specifying either the IP address or the host name of the MDM Server.
    After u mount the MDM server if it is in stopped mode then start it.
    If u want to mount any repository right click on thatMDM server and say either create repository or unarchive  repository.
    If u want to unarchive any repository u must keep the A2A files which are provided along with SAP Business content on the MDM server SAP MDM -->> Server -->> Archives.
    Then only u will be able to unarchive the repository and get the structure provided by SAP like for eg. Vendor,Employee,Article,Material etc...
    Hope dis helps u

  • MDM Console Downward compatibility

    Hi Friends.
    We recently installed hot fix(5.5.64.95) for our Dev MDM System.
    We installed corresponding MDM Console as well.
    Through this new console we are able to access only the patched system. we are unable to access remaining MDM servers(MDM Qa and MDM Prd)  which are in old versions 5.5.62.63.
    its giving error "File failed crc check" due to different version.
    We are in test face of validating patched systems. It will take some time to patch remaining systems as equal to Dev system.
    Is there a way user can access both system with single new Console?
    or user need to install required console whenever they accessing different versions of MDM server ?
    Please assist what can be done for this issue.
    Thanks in advance.

  • Install problem - unable to mount devfs

    I tried to install Arch and get "Unable to mount devfs" and then a kernel panic.
    I tried with kernels 2.4 and 2.6 included in the arch 0.7 cd and all give me the same error.
    Also follow the instructions here http://wiki2.archlinux.org/index.php/Qu … %20Install. Same error.
    How do I fix this. TIA

    The /disc0 part is the MBR (Master Boot Record), which is where I have always installed my bootloader, without issue I might add. So /disc0 is not the problem, something else is.
    Hmm, but what....
    When you install grub to that directory does it spit out any errors? Or does the installer say that it installed just fine?
    Also if you try to reinstall, check console 5 (alt+F5) and see if it says anything regarding grub.
    What file system are you running with? Ext3, reiserfs, xfs etc...?
    You could also try and use udev instead. When editing the config files during that part of the install, go and read the grub file. It will tell you how to use udev.
    I can't think of anything else right now (2:25 am where I am...), if I think  of anything else I'll post.

  • Unable to mount USB NTFS hard drive on mac

    I am trying to mount an iomega ego 1 TB USB hardrive on my mac pro.
    The drive is formatted for windows. Normally you could at least see the drive mount. To help make it writeable from the mac I am using FUSE and Tuxera NTFS. After a clean reinstallation of snow leopard and update with the latest patches etc... This was working fine. The drive was seen by OSX and i could read/write to it without issues.
    I then went about restoring some applications with the mac migration tool. Since that was done the drive no longer mounts to the desktop.
    I see the following error in the console logs:

  • MDM Console Problem

    Dear Gurus,
    We have upgraded our MDM 5.5 SP06 Server to MDM 7.1 SP03. All the applications (MDS, MDIS, MDSS) are now running on the same solarix sparc box. We are able to start and stop these applications by command sapcontrol on the server. We have also installed the new MDM console 7.1 on a seperate windows machine.
    But when we connect from MDM console and try to mount the MDM server, its get mounted and shows the status stopped, even though the server is running.
    When we try to start the server from console, it asks for the user id and the password. We tried giving all the user ids and passwords includint <sid>adm. But it gives error saying "Call to SAPWebServiceStartInstance failed with error: Invalid Credentials".
    Please help...
    Regards
    Manoj

    Thanks Jitesh,
    But no profit , same problem with IP address also.
    While connecting MDM server does we required to provide system numbers as we have three numbers 40, 42, 44 for MDS. MDIS and MDSS?
    I tried to connect the MDS server with address hostname 40 but then also same problem.
    Please help.

  • MDM Console

    Greetings,
    Can someone answer this question.
    I have MDM 7.1 SP05 (MDS, MDSS, MDI) running on a SUSE 10 server.  I also have Oracle 10.2.0.4 running on the same box.
    On my windows laptop (Win XP sp3), I have installed the MDM Console 7.1.05.88) and I am able to mount the server which MDM is running.  I can also go to the http port for MDM and start the admin console / snap in tool to see the MDM instances running.
    However, when on my laptop, I can not create a repository / connect to the database.  I have not been able to - ever.  Though I did not find any information in the MDM install guide or the MDM Console guide, SAP says that I need to install the Oracle client on my laptop.
    I have completed this; I am able to connect to the database on the MDM server (via sqlplus from windows).  I have tried to use the system/manager userID to try to create the repository in the console.

    Hi Guys -
    I'm looking at something similar ...
    @Aamir Suhail u2013
    Iu2019m looking at the download location :
    Support Packages and Patches - Entry by Application Group " -> SAP NetWeaver and complementary products " -> SAP MDM  " -> SAP NETWEAVER MDM 7.1 " -> Entry by Component " -> Administration Clients

    MDM CONSOLE 7.1
         >> Win32
    The console only comes in Win 32 u2026
    @ Shiv Prashant
    The errors that I am seeing after I mount the MDM server and try to create a repository is:
    [excerpt]
    ERROR CODE=-1 ||| Failed to intitialize Oracle shared library.
    Last CMD: OCIErrorGet: pfnOCIErrorGet==NULL
    OCI Init returned 0x84020028
    Oracle Initialization Failed -- likely missing libraries/dlls
    [/excerpt]
    Iu2019m not clear on the last statement u2013 WHICH Oracle libraries?  On the MDM Server that is housing the Oracle database? 
    On the laptop which is trying to connect to MDM (which I am leaning towards).
    As a note: I did follow SAP note 1250319 and used InfoMds scripts for validation.  As far as I can tell, the params and checks passed.  I ran the script as MDM OS user ID and the Oracle OS user ID with the u201C u2013ou201D option for the database connections.
    @ jignesh patel
    As a note, I am using u2018system/masteru2019 and an MDM user I created in Oracle.  With both users, I can access the database from the different laptops or on the server itself via the sqlplus command. According to the Install Guide for the MDM Server and the Console Guide, it starts by saying that you need to use SYSTEM or some similar user to begin.
    Not sure what you mean on point 5 (also check Path).  What path are you referring to?
    @ Rajesh Chavan
    Port 21 is turned off and Iu2019m not sure why you would need that; I AM able to telnet to the MDM server ports and get a connection.
    Few things:
            If SAP is saying that you need to install Oracle client on my laptop, is this something that any of you were told to do?
            What libraries would I need (or, the MDM server running the database) that are not being recognized when connecting?
            Is there a way to test using CLIX (Win 32)?
    Thanks!
