User acceptance testing in multi-tenant setup

How do most people do their User Acceptance Testing/QA on the Staging environment given that the availability is not guaranteed?

Yes, Even We tried logging a Service Request to refresh our CTE environment back to vanilla flavor.Which we used for lot of demo purposes. But they told that they don't refresh the CTE environment user has to take care of. And you don't get back the out of the box funcltionality.

Where do I get all SAP WM transaction codes for user acceptance test ?

Hello experts,
Where do I get all SAP WM transaction codes for user acceptance test during cutover activities?
I need the list of transactions.
Thanks in advance

Hi,
You can download through Solution Manager also. If ASAP is installed in your computer, you can download all the standard transactions, otherwise let me know your id, i will send it to you.

User Acceptance Test

Hi,
Can any one advise the total procedure of User Acceptance Test in SAP best practice. And is there any tools are used during that process?
Thanks in advance...
Srinu

Hi,
I am not aware of the best practices for User Acceptance testing, however I can give you the details of the general procedure followed.
1. Once a bug/ new development is completed in Development server, we do unit testing either in Development or Staging/ Quality server.
If you need to study behaiviour of certain transactions before and after change, you should take necessary screen shots and table downloads as required Prior to any transports.
2. Once the unit tests are sucessful, the object is transported to the staging server. You then run the reports etc and test the Post transport results. Capture the step by step instructions with SAP screen shots in a word document.
3. Compile all screen shots and table downloads in a word document, showing the Pre and Post Transport Test results.
4. Explian changes made and the tests conducted to the user. Send the Test results document to the user and ask him to validate the same. The users will take the document sent by you as a base and run tests in Staging himself. He may also do some additional tests.
If no errors are found the user will send an acceptance saying that changes are good and test results are good,
5. Usually we attach the test document prepared (with screen shots etc) and the user acceptance email to the Testing Task in the defect tracking tool.
6. Only after User acceptance is received, the transports can be moved to production
Defect tracking tools can be Mercury, Remedy, ITSM tools etc.
Hope this helps.
Thanks,

User Acceptance Client role setting

What are the pros and cons of setting the User Acceptance Test client role parameter to P (Production) rather than T (Test). I thought that it should be set to P to mirror the settings for the Production client. Note: settings found in T000 Table

If you set the client role to Production, then it will be counted as a productive client for licensing purposes by SAP. That could have a financial impact. Also, I think you are only supposed to have one productive client per installation number, though I don't know if this is an actual technical limitation.
You are correct that as a Test client there are a few things which will behave differently than in a Production client, but these are mostly immaterial for user acceptance testing purposes. For the vast majority of business functions, there will be no difference.
So, I would advise setting the client role to Test. Do set it to 'not modifiable,' however, so that changes are forced to be made via the transport system, the same as production, and thus generally keeping the configuration in better sync with Production.

Unable to send to external email recipients - Multi Tenant Exchange 2013 - MultiRole servers in DAG

Greetings all, I hope someone can help.
I have created a Exchange 2013 multi-tenant organization, with two servers, both multi-role - CAS and Mailbox roles.
Internal mail flow is fine (external email addresses can send to the domain).
External firewall port forwards ports 443 and 25 to the Internal DAG IP address.
There are two multi-role Exchange servers that are members of the DAG.
I am able to connect to OWA and ECP via https://externalIP/OWA and https://alias.domain.com/OWA
No SSL certificates have been purchased or installed yet.
Exchange URLs have not been changed since default configuration at install.
OWA and ECP works both internal and external.
External DNS works with SPF and PTR records correctly configured
Exchange RCA - Send test only fails with one Spam Listing (this Blacklist provider now flags all domains and you cannot ask to be removed)
Send Connectors are the default ones created during install. Receive connector is standard configuration with - * -
When sending email to an external address, I receive a failure notice
ServerName.test.corp.int gave this error:

I have been troubleshooting this for many hours with no progress.
I have created new Send Connectors for the server that is advising that it is unable to relay, but they have all failed.
I have tried setting the Internal IP address for Exhange Server 1 (Exchange Server 2 reports failure), with most combinations of Security (Anonymous, Exchange Users, etc).
I have also tried with the IP range 192.168.11.0/24 to allow the whole the subnet, I still receive the unable to relay failure notice.
I have tried this guide - hxxps://glazenbakje.wordpress.com/2012/12/30/exchange-2013-how-to-configure-an-internal-relay-connector/ - with different combinations, still no resolution.
I am at a loss as to why I can't send out with the default configuration. I would assume that email would flow out without any changes, but this does not happen.
Can someone please assist before I lose my sanity.
Thanks in advance,
Terry

I found my one of my Exchange servers had an extra NIC. I have since added a second NIC to the other server, so now both Exchange servers have dual NICs. I removed the DAG cleanly and recreated the DAG from scratch, using this link -
hxxp://careexchange.in/how-to-create-a-database-availability-group-in-exchange-2013/
The issue still exists, even with a newly created DAG. I also found that the Tenant Address Books were not 'applied'. I applied them but still no resolution
I think the issue is related to multi-tenant configuration even though the error says that it can't relay. The unable to relay message can appear when sending from a domain that the Organization does not support. Like trying to email as [email protected]
when you domain name is apple.com - But through extensive research I still can't resolve the issue.
Can someone please assist before I lose my sanity.

Can anyone explain what "multi-tenant" means with respect to OAM and OIF?

Hi,
I noticed that OAM 11gR2 has several additional authentication modules and schemes out-of-the-box for "MT" or multi-tenant. I've actually tried them, but am not clear exactly what their purpose is?
As a test, I configured the FederationMT module and FederationMTScheme to protect a test resource in OAM, and then when I access the resource, I first get a page with one field for username and a "Sign In" button. After I enter a user name, it goes to a form login page and I can log into the OIF IdP, and that's about it. I guess that I don't see what this accomplishes?
If anyone is familiar with this, please advise.
Thanks,
Jim

Hi,
Thanks for the metalink article. I've read that, and I can understand what the article is describing, but I'm not 100% clear how that relates to the configuration parameters in the FederationMTPlugin. The article talks about a mapping file, but I don't see something like that for configuring the TenantDismbiguationPlugin?
The first step in FederationMTScheme plugin is a TenantDisambiguationPlugin, which takes two parameters:
KEY_IDENTITY_STORE_REF
KEY_FEDERATED_TENANTS (a comma-separated list of "some things")
The steps/orchestration for the FederationMTPlugin has:
Initial Step: FedUserAuthenticationPlugin
TenantDisambiguationPlugin OnSuccess: FedAuthenticationPlugin OnFailure: UserIdentificationPlugin
UserIdentificationPlugin OnSuccess: UserAuthenticationPlugin OnFailure: failure
UserAuthenticationPlugin OnSuccess: success OnFailure: failure
FedAuthnRequestPlugin OnSuccess: success OnFailure: FedUserAuthentication
FedUserAuthenticationPlugin OnSuccess: success OnFailure: TenantAmbiguationPlugin
[The OnError results for all steps are failure, so I haven't shown them.]
So, the first step is the FedUserAuthenticationPlugin (AssertionProcessing), and if that fails, the next step is the TenantDisambiguationPlugin.
I guess all of my questions are around what that TenantAmbiguationPlugin does, and how it works?
I'm guessing that what you enter on the 1st webpage, which asks for a Tenant, is matched against the comma-separated list that is in the plugins "KEY_FEDERATED_TENANTS" parameter.
Is that correct?
But:
a) What happens if there is a match of what you entered vs. what's in the "KEY_FEDERATED_TENANTS" list?
b) What happens if there is NOT a match of what you entered vs. what's in the "KEY_FEDERATED_TENANTS" list?
That article you mentioned calls for a mapping file, that maps what is entered (the tenant) to a user identity store, but where is that in the TenantDisambiguationPlugin's parameters? The only other parameter for that plugin is the "KEY_IDENTITY_STORE_REF" parameter.
Having said that, I described the steps and step orchestration in the FederationMTPlugin above. If the TenantDisambiguationPlugin is suppose to somehow map what's entered to a user identity store name, then, with respect to the FederationMTPlugin, is that mapped user identity store used for the UI and UA steps (i.e., as the "KEY_IDENTITY_STORE_REF" for the UI and UA steps)?
Thanks for your help with this. Oracle's documentation certainly merits some improvement :(...

Exchange 2010SP1 Multi-Tenant Issue with Multiple Domains

I have an installation of Exchange 2010 SP1 with multi-tenant support enabled via the install time /hosting switch.
Everything works well for my smaller clients. I now have a bigger client that has about 300 users and 3 domains. The users are divided roughly equally amongst the domains - ie, 3 domains each with 100 users. I've added the first domain as normal:
$c = get-credential
New-organization -name "Pretend Company" -DomainName domain1.com -ProgramId HostingSample -OfferId 2 -location en-US -AdministratorPassword $c.password
After that I logged into the ECP control panel and created all the users. The migration went smoothly and has been working well for the last week. Now, it's time to add the next domain. Since the client wants all 300 users visible in the same GAL, I just
added a domain to the organization:
New-AcceptedDomain -Name domain2.com -DomainName domain2.com -Organization "Pretend Company"
This is where I run into problems. When I try to create the users for domain2.com via ECP, I am able to create the user successfully, and select domain2.com from the drop down. Once the user is created however, I am able to see that although their UPN
is [email protected], it created their email address as [email protected].
I tried creating the users manually via EMS:
$password = Read-Host "Enter password" -AsSecureString
New-MailUser -UserPrincipalName [email protected] -Password $password -Name "Test User" -Organization "Pretent Company" -PrimarySmtpAddress [email protected]
The user creates successfully and I can see the user created in the proper OU in AD. Unfortunately I can not see them in ECP nor can I see them if I do:
get-mailbox -Organization "Pretend Company"
This makes the management of the users very difficult to delegate, and I'm not sure that the users at domain2.com will even work.
This brings me to my questions:
(1) Is is possible create accounts that have different domain names in their default email addresses within the same Organization in /hosting mode?
(2) Is this something I need to do with an EmailAddressPolicy? I read the documentation but it didn't seem /hosting friendly.

Writing waveforms from Ch. 0 of niSCOPE to binary file in a multi-record setup?

Hello,
I am not very experienced with niSCOPE and writing waveform records, so I need some expert help here.
Here is my application:
I am generating a pulse train using a 6602 counter/timer. Each rising edge of this pulse train triggers an niFGEN to generate a single sawtooth waveform output to another device and, at the same time, acquiring data from Ch. 0 of an niSCOPE. I am fetching one record per rising edge of the pulse train for the niSCOPE (multi-record setup).
The attached VI is where I am at thus far. All triggering and reading/fetching of the waveforms seems to be working just fine when testing with an oscilloscope. I now need to save each waveform record along with the timestamp of its rising edge trigger to a binary file. The bottom of the VI is where my attempt is at saving the waveforms to a binary file, so the attention should be there when looking at it.
I am running LabVIEW from a computer connected to the NI PXI-Chassis using a cross-over cable.
Questions:
1.) Do I need to convert the data coming in on Ch. 0 of the niSCOPE to digital? Does it come in as analog from an oscilloscope? If I need to do this, how can I accomplish this?
2.) When I try to run an example VI to write a waveform to a binary file by choosing "My Computer" in the bottom left of the VI window, it works it saves the file just fine. When I change this to run on "PXI2", a file is not even created and I get an error on File Dialog (code# 7, I think) each time the file is attempted to be closed. This may be a stupid question, but why can I not save data to a file on my computer if running the VI on "PXI2"?
3.) Assuming the saving of each waveform to a binary file is working (read: (2) is successfully addressed), how can I also write the timestamp of the starting trigger for the waveform along with the waveform in the binary file? An example VI of how I can accomplish this would be fantastic, but I haven't been able to find one thus far.
4.) When I was messing around and trying to accomplish this, it seemed that doing this writing may slow down the entire process too much. I need to record data to the extent of the sawtooth waveform generated by the niFGEN AWG for each trigger. Is there any changes I should make to my acquisition process in the niSCOPE section so that I can read each waveform, along with keeping the timestamp for each, and write this information to a binary file?
I need to get this working quickly, so any help on this is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Thank you so much for your reply, David. Let me try and explain my
situation and setup a little better, as well as discuss the points you
made in your reply. Beware, you may want to refill your coffee as this
post is long .
I am using an embedded controller in a PXI-1044 chassis. I now have the
chassis hooked up to our local network, and I am deploying my project
to the chassis over the network as I am also connected to the local
network. I have an oscilloscope next to me that takes as input the
pulse train for a trigger and the generated sawtooth from the niFGEN
for each trigger (rising edge of the pulse train from the 6602
counter). Just to make sure synchronization is taking place, the
sawtooth is also fed as input to the niSCOPE for acquisition.
"PXI2" is what shows up when I choose to run a VI on the PXI chassis
rather than "My Computer"; not sure why the 2 is there either, but that
is what it says. I may have tracked down the issue I was having with
writing, but more about that a little later...
The attached VI is an update, although not much has changed. My
application design is like this (keep in mind that some values for VI's
are still constants in the block diagram while others are controls on
the front panel): I am using the 6602 to generate a 1 KHz pulse train
and routing this pulse train to PXI_Trigger0/RTSI0. I am also using the
PXI_Clock (10) as a sample clock for this, and also using this same
clock as the reference clock for both the 5422 and the 5124 (as per the
synchronization help file mentioned for synchronizing multiple
devices). Both the 5422 and the 5124 are triggered by a digital rising
edge (from the pulse train) on PXI_Trigger0/RTSI0 (as it was routed
there). For each trigger, the niFGEN generates a sawtooth waveform
using a stepped trigger mode and outputs it. For each trigger, the
niSCOPE acquires data. They are both synchronous, which is tough to see
since one has its trigger source on the front panel and the other has
its trigger source on the block diagram. All devices use PXI_Clock so
they are synchronized.
The expected behavior is to only generate a single sawtooth waveform
per trigger with a certain number of sample points. I want to acquire
the same number of samples using the niSCOPE, which is what I meant by
"the extent of the waveform" in my previous post. So, should I change
the 8192 to 1000 for the number of samples for the niSCOPE? What would
you recommend for the sampling rate? I have been using 5 MHz for the
niFGEN and 5 MHz for the niSCOPE...this is how it should be done,
correct? If it is different in the VI, please let me know. For some
reason, I have to adjust all of the values each time I open it since
the default values are not the ones I want.
I want to generate and acquire one waveform per trigger (one waveform
per record). However, I want to be able to record a large number of
records so I have enabled the circular buffer-like treatment of the
acquired waveforms. The 100 or 1000 records is actually just a number I
am giving it for now to make sure it is working before recording many
more records.
As for saving the niSCOPE data, I would like to save all data in a
single file that is NOT ascii (to save space). I have been looking at
the HWS file format, and would like to use it. I think the attached VI
includes this at the bottom of the while loop. For each trigger, I
would like to save the time (as accurate as possible) that the trigger
occurred for the record/waveform, which appears to be (absoluteInitialX
- relativeInitialX) as you said in your post (thanks!). I just need to
store as much information about the waveform and time information for
it as possible with the waveform in the file. So it looks like I will
need to use the wfm info for that information, providing portions of it
as waveform attributes in the HWS VI's?
What format of data do you recommend I fetch, and will I be fetching a
"Single waveform" or "Multiple waveforms"? Should I use I32, DBL, WDT,
or other for the format? A balance between good precision in values and
time it takes to fetch/record would be best.
Given all of the above, I am having one troube with saving data to a
file. As a reminder, I am deploying the project to the chassis over the
network. When I choose a location and/or file to save the HWS data to,
I only get choices that are on the PC's hard disk (such as C:\Documents
and Settings\cgifford\...) NOT the chassis's hard disk. When I choose
something other than "C:\" I get an error that the file could not be
opened. However, when I choose "C:\" everything goes fine. The saved
data is nowhere to be found on my PC though, so I am assuming that it
is being stored on the internal 60G hard disk in the chassis that must
be named "C" by default or something!?
I have been told by phone support that I should be able to make a
direct connection with the chassis just like another PC, and should be
able to access the information on its internal hard disk in a drag and
drop fashion. I however cannot directly connect to the PXI chassis to
get the data that has been saved on the hard disk. We are running
Windows XP on the PC. We did some poking around and noticed that the
chassis is not running Windows file sharing, and only has ftp and http
running. We tried to access it using ftp, but we didn't have a username
and password to supply it. So, how can we enable Windows file sharing
on the chassis? How can I connect to it to do drag and drop to get
saved waveform data off of it? This is the main problem I am now
facing. Eventually we would like to store data to an external hard disk
connected to the chassis, which assumes that I can have access to the
internal storage to tell it to save files to the external hard disk.
For now saving it to the internal hard disk is just fine until
everything is proven to work, but I would like to get the data off of
the internal hard drive to put on another computer.
Any answers/suggestions on my above questions are greatly appreciated.
I also want to thank you for reading this long post . I eagerly await
a reply. Thanks again in advance.

Webex Node Multi-Tenant Configuration

Hi,
We are currently deploying webex node on ASR for a client, in the UC 8.x it mentions the ability to multi-tenant the node capabilityes e.g
Page 22-9
"There is also the potential to deploy the WebEx Node for ASR in a multi-tenant capacity, in which two
businesses working closely together with staff working on each other's premises could have the other's
WebEx site defined on their ASR Nodes. This means that, when staff for Enterprise B access their
company's WebEx site through Enterprise A, they can use the local ASR Node to accelerate their
meeting while saving bandwidth for Enterprise A. This feature can also benefit organizations that have
multiple WebEx sites."
This is the only reference in any guide I can find to being able to do this.
Has anyone actually done this? Is it actually possible? and if so does anyone have any documentation that they can point out that may be of use trying to deploy this type of solution.
I know it's a long shot but any help is much appreciated.

Hi A.Zarei,
Based on your description, I recommend to check if the Managed Metadata service application is associated with the web application where your My Site hose site exists.
Please double check if the service account of the My Site host site web application and the user profile service application has read permission on the Managed Metadata service application.
Best regards.
Thanks

Move hana db from single tenant to multi tenant

Hi experts,
I have read that, for the moment, we cannot do an upgrade of a SAP system + conversion to a multi tenant Hana database in one shot. We have to deploy it on a single tenant and then move it to a multi tenant environment (where we can put a series of systems). Am I right? Right now we have a single tenant environment (A), and a multi tenant environment (B).
How can we move the database from a single tenant to a multi tenant?
- do we need to 'upgrade' the single tenant (A) to a multi tenant and then put it to our other multi tenant (B) environment? Problem here is that we then lose our single tenant environment for deploying new systems. We then need to redeploy everything, no?
- or do we just need to restore the system database to the multi tenant database?
Regards,
Kenny

Hi,
Have you changed the <sid>adm user environment variables?
You can resolve this problem using system copy procedure.

Hi,
Base on my understanding, as it is the Mutli-Tenant environment, in internal DNS server, there is no need to add the DNS A record
lyncdiscoverinternal. However, you can try to add the DNS record in internal DNS server to test the issue as well.
Also, please make sure you have updated both Lync Server 2013 and Exchange 2013 to the latest version. If not, update it and then test again.

ISE 1.1.1 - User Accept Policy keeps returning

Hello there
I have an ISE 1.1.1 setup, with a guest portal. The AD can be used to log onto this portal, and the Guest Portal Policy Configuration is on First Login.
However, every time a AD user logs in on the portal, he has to accept the User Accept Policy. Is this a bug? Or is there a configuration error?
Greetings

Steve,
It should be able to redirect users based on the username and device that they are authenticating from, if you look at the endpoint there is an attribute that is AUP specific once that is set to yes, the profiling database should have this flag set so it isnt redirected to the AUP after login.
In your authorization profile is the client being redirected to another authorization policy after CoA?
Please post screenshots of the authorization policy, the endpoint attribute, and the authentication events....
Thanks,

Multi-head setup without xorg.conf

I'm using the newer method of running X without an xorg.conf and want a traditional multi-head setup (a "Normal multi-head" method, allowing a separate X session on each of the monitors).
I would use this to have a different window manager run on each of the screens (something like the following for OpenBox: DISPLAY=:0.1 openbox), perhaps with the aid of Switchscreen.
XRandR will give me one big virtual screen (and is currently how I'm doing it, combined with xnest), but that's not what I want. Any ideas?

WooHoo !
awkwood - You Rock ! I feel like an idiot for not paying closer attention to your first post. I finally realized what you were saying and figured out how to do the downgrade.
If it's 2.12.0 I'd suggest trying 2.11.0 instead.
The most recent update borked my dual display with a similar error message but 2.11 works fine.
I don't use an xorg.conf.
So essentially this seems to be a bug with version 2.12 of the xf86-video-intel driver. I downgraded to ver 2.11 and everything works perfectly. I am running dual monitors at full resolution with no fuss. So again awkwood I thank you !
For other Arch Newbies who have this issue in the mean time until they fix the bug, this is how I did the downgrade.
Step 1:
download the 2.11 package from the link below
http://arm.konnichi.com/extra/os/i686/x … pkg.tar.xz
Step 2:
Open a terminal and cd to the directory where you saved the file
$ cd /home/$USERNAME/Downloads
Step 3:
Use pacman to install the package
sudo pacman -U xf86-video-intel-2.11.0-2-i686.pkg.tar.xz
Finally reboot. When you log back in everything should work fine
Again thanks to awkwood as well as karol, blind, Inxsible and everyone else for their help. Everyone here is so helpful, I am defiantly an Arch user for life. Hopefully they will fix the bug in the next version of the driver. My next step is to see about filling a bug report.
