Using test tenant as production system by mistake...

Hello,
I have a case where C4C is being used on a test tenant rather than a production tenant.
In order to be able to activate mass e-mails and possibly improve performance and to set things right alltogether, I'm looking for the cleanest way to migrate to production.
It seems there is no 'request system' path from test to production that includes all data.
Support has advised me to use data migration from test to production but I fear I will loose quite some context and other things (e.g. e-mail attachments).
I wonder if anyone has stumbled upon the same and has some good advice?
Kind regards

Hi Gunter,
I had such a case with another customer recently as well.
In order to get the situation corrected, please please create a ticket requesting the copy of your test tenant into a productive carrier system as soon as possible.
Running test tenants productively must be prevented in any case. Productive tenants are running on a dedicted system landscape (carrier sytems) which is underlying different security, upgrade and downtimes rules - e.g. the release upgrade is performed 2 weeks in advance on the test tenants to enable the customer to test their use cases prior to productive upgrade.
kind regards
Bernd

Create test env from production system

Hi,
Please sorry,
I am new in this area of Oracle Applications 11.5.10 and I need help in couple of questions.
We have production system with Oracle Applications 11.5.10, APPS tier on 32bit Red Hat Linux EE 4 server, and 10.2.0.3 DB tier on 64bit Red Hat Linux EE 4 server.
We get the 2 new servers for test Oracle Applications 11.5.10 environment with same versions of OS like production.
First test 32bit for APPS,
Second test 64bit for DB tier.
Now we need to create test environment, same like production.
Questions>
1) What is the best way to create same env in this situation (32bit app tier, 64bit database tier). I suppose that cloning using rapid clone procedure isn't possible on this clear machines.
2) If I need to install Oracle Applications 11.5.10 software first on both machines, is it possible to use 32bit rapidwiz installer (existing in stage) to create test db tier on this 64bit node, or not.
I have read in the document Oracle Applications 11.5.10 - Installation Update Notes for Linux x86
You can only install Oracle Applications on an x86-64 architecture server if the operating system is 32-bit Linux or Windows. If your operating system is 64-bit, contact your operating system vendor to obtain a 32-bit operating system before installing Oracle Applications.
3) How to now from which stage production is created. When I try to create the stage for my test environment using perl command perl /mnt/cdrom/Disk1/rapidwiz/adautostg.pl
I get these options:
1 - to choose Oracle Applications
2 - to choose Oracle Applications with NLS
3 - to choose Oracle Database technology stack (RDBMS)
4 - to choose Oracle Applications database (Databases)
5 - to choose Oracle Applications technology stack (Tools)
6 - to choose APPL_TOP
7 - to choose National Language Support (NLS) Languages
Because I haven't seen directory oraNLS is this 1 good choose for stage.
Thanks, and sorry because I am new in this area.

2) If I need to install Oracle Applications 11.5.10 software first on both machines, is it possible to use 32bit rapidwiz installer (existing in stage) to create test db tier on this 64bit node, or not.Type "linux32 bash" -- See this thread for details.
How to install 11i on Red Hat Linux 64 bit
Re: How to install 11i on Red Hat Linux 64 bit
You can only install Oracle Applications on an x86-64 architecture server if the operating system is 32-bit Linux or Windows. If your operating system is 64-bit, contact your operating system vendor to obtain a 32-bit operating system before installing Oracle Applications. What is the database version?
To migrate the database from 32-bit to 64-bit you need to follow the steps in these docs (depends on your version).

5 - to choose Oracle Applications technology stack (Tools)
6 - to choose APPL_TOP
7 - to choose National Language Support (NLS) Languages
Because I haven't seen directory oraNLS is this 1 good choose for stage.oraNLS is only required when you want to install additional languages in addition the base English one. If you have no installed languages you can skip this one.
Please run md5sum as per (MD5 Checksums for 11i10.2 Rapid Install Media [ID 316843.1]) to verify the integrity of the stage area directory before you run Rapid Install.

Disadvantages/risks of using (e)Catt in production systems

Hi, in a number of documents on e(Catt) there is a warning not to use (e)Catt in production. Can anyone tell me what the risks are or the disadvantages are of using (e)Catt in production? Is there any change of database corruption using (e)Catt?
Thx, Paul

Hi Paul,
As it is an automation tool,it is advisable not to run in Production and I do not think any support will be available for same in case if it causes any issue.So,please check if any support will be avialable to you.
Though,automation tool is reliable,it is working based on GUI concepts and it may lead to failures on various reasons.
Hence,it is suggested not to run in production systems.

Using Tcode: OAAQ in Production system

Hi
Can we use Tcode: OAAQ reversing year end closing in the production system?
Thanks,

Hi
You can reverse the year end closing through OAAQ. However, before doing so, please be sure if you really want to reverse the closing. Moreever, your FI Periods should also be open for your company code in T Code OB52.

Role not displayed in Production system

Dear all,
I have CUA set up (CUA is configured in solution manager), and I assigned 10 roles to a user in solution manager using SU01 and selected Production system while assigning roles and the roles were already existing in production system.but after role assignment to the user, I verified in Production system and I found that they are not reflecting in PROD. Infact, I have done user comparision but still no change.
Please let me know do I need execute SCUL by selecting the User ID.
If yes please let me know the steps to execute SCUL.
Your help is much appreciated!
Many thanks
Anil.

Hi,
Please go to the Transaction SCUL, and give the user id and the system as the prodution system ID (eg. PRD100). By default the Error, Warnings and Unconfirmed Distribution will be already checked. Do not change them and then click on Execute.
If you receive the message saying No Data, then it means that the IDOCs for that user were successfully pushed from CUA to the production system.
But, since the change was not reflected, when you execute, you will be able to see the status where the IDOC is struck. Expand the tree and see the nature of the error, and try to resolve that error. And then select the entire tree and click on the Distribute button.
It will give you a pop up, let all the checkboxes as it is, and continue. After the distribution is triggered, you will get a message in SCUL.
Refresh the SCUL data, and you should be able to see the current status of the distribution.
If all the data is cleared in SCUL, you can log into your produciton system adn check the users roles. New role should be visible there.
I hope this will clear your doubt. Let me know if you have any questions on this.

Sneha Vyas.

Content Server config for production system - oac0

Hi all
We are setting up content server for our ERP 2005 system, and I am wondering what best practice is for our scenario.
We have one content server (CST) for development and test systems on host A, and one content server (CSP) for production system on host B. The Archive link configuration in dev and test points to CST. When this is transported to production, it will point to the wrong content server and I will have to reconfigure the archivelink in production to point to the correct content server (CSP).
What is the best way to set up the production system to point to the content server CSP on host B? Should I define a new content repository in t-code oac0 in dev, and transport this to production? Should I define the new repository directly in production system??
Please advise.
Best Regards,
Thomas

Hello,
I had the same problem a few years ago with R/3 4.7.
I don't think there is a perfect solution but here is what I did :
In the DEV system, in OAC0, I created 2 content repositories, one for the test sytem and one for the production. I transported these 2 content repositories in the production system.
In the DEV system, in OAC3, I created temporary links from my business objects to my production content repository. I released the request order.
Then I deleted these links which are wrong in the DEV system. I transported the order in the R/3 production system where these links are right.
In the DEV system, in OAC3, I then created the links from my business objects to my TEST content repository. I released the second request order.
So my config is now OK in my test and my production system.
When we refresh the DEV system by a database copy from the production system. We just have to reimport the test request order to switch the links to be OK on the DEV system. We don't have to recreate the test content repository as it was defined als oi nthe production system.
I am not sure that this is clear but this works for us with no problems since 2002.
I hope this helps.

Setting client role in non-production systems

In our QA test systems of R/3 and BW, the client role in SCC4 was set to 'Production'. The reason I was given is that by setting the client role to 'Production', will enable some settings in FI such as period closing,and customizing settings remain open without transportable requests. I totally disagree with this. I worked on numerous projects, but this is first time I am hearing this. I always set client role to Test in non-production systems, without any problems. Do any one have any idea about this?
Thanks
Santosh

SAP have a concept of "current settings". These include things like exchange rates and other items which really appear to be configuration settings. In a non-modifiable system these cannot be changed because the transport management system tries to get involved. If the client is set to productive, this restriction is overridden.
I would always suggest that the QA system should be set to productive and non-modifiable to ensure that the behaviour of the transactions affecting such objects can be tested in a production-like environment. If you need to have your QA system open for any sort of changes you are exposed to having changes introduced in QA to leading to the impression that new/modified functionality or config works but when the transport takes the unmodified version to production you'll be in trouble.

Not able to change the data of test data containers in production system

Dear All,
We have created eCATT scripts in Development SolMan System and moved the transports to Production SolMan System. Customer wants to change the data at Test data containers and run the scripts in production system but we are not able to edit the data.
May be the reason is SCC4 transaction code has set the below option.
Changes and transports for client-specific Objects
u2022 No changes allowed
Customer doesnu2019t want to change the above option and wanted to change the test data containers to give different datau2019s and run the eCATT scripts.
Could you please let me know the solution for this?
Your help is really appreciated.
Thanks,
Mahendra

eCatt has the feature where you don't need to transport the scripts or test configuration to our target system. We can keep all our scripts and test data in Solman and run this script any other system in your landscape using the System data container and target system.
Maintain the production as one of the target system in System container in Solman and point that system while running the script. Change the test data in Solman to run this script.
Let me know if you need more information
thanks

ESR role in different development, test, and production systems

Hello,
I want to know the role of ESR in development, test, and production system. Do I have to install ESR in every seprate installated SAP CE machine??? or should It be centrally and development., test and production systems can use it?? Does software release process effects in the whole landscape??
does Test and Production system requires ESR??? or all used services are embed into released software SCA files to test and production system???
Regards,
Naeem

Hey,
as far as I understood the ESR is a design time tool, i think you don't need to have a productive instance.
I think it should be installed on your PI systems. And I would prefer to have at least a devel and a test installation, to
separate services on test machines from those who are running on productive systems.
as you can't differentiate the services by their name but just by their systems, you should have separate ESR Instances.
Nevertheless I think it could be possible to run only one ESR....
Kind Regards

WebService in Adobe Forms in Test and Production Systems

Hello Friends,
I am facing a peculiar problem with the webservice. I have created one Adobe Form in Development system and in that Adobe Form I used one WebService to get the User's Complete Name. Its working fine in Development System. And all the WebDynpro Component's and Applications, RFC Function Module(for WebService), WebService Name were placed in same Request ID and this request is being moved from Development System to Quality system, here all the objects were present except WebService Name i.e. this service can be seen only from SOAMANAGER Transaction but not from SICF Transaction(As given in SAP Note: 1318499). And I came to know that we need to use only SOAMANAGER transaction ONLY in Quality or Production systems.
But while creating Data Connection in Adobe Form I used SOAMANAGER's generated URL and it got created successfully and while triggering the WebService at Runtime based on some event I am writing JavaScript Code and here I am using the URL where it is generated from SICF Transaction.
Friends please help me in solving the issue as which URL I need to use in Adobe Form at runtime(i.e. triggering webservice from JavaScript, the URL from SOAMANAGER is not working in JavaScript).

Test and Production system

Hy all. Our Problem is the following. One of our customers wants to have a Productive and a Test-Instance of Oracle DB and Mobile Server.
If you create an application, the Mobile Server is creating Tables (CVR$..., CEQ$...) in the schema where the original tables are.
If we now make a Synchronisation Productive - Test from our original schema (which we use for our normal program) the tables from the Testmobile Server would be overwritten with the tables from the Production Mobile Server. I think this would cause a lot of problems.
Is anybody here, who had this situation too and who could get me any hint how to handle this?
Thanks in advance for any answers.
Holger

Hello rekounas,
first of all thanks for your answer. Perhaps I try to describe the situation another way:
I have two separate databases. One for test environment and one for productive
environment.
Case there is no Mobile Server installation at all. If I want to have recent
data in the test database, our customer takes a dump (from our schema in the
database) from the production environment and imports it in the test database
(after dropping the equivalent schema).
Now, there is a problem with this if there is a mobile Server involved.
There are two Mobile Server installed with two different Repositories. One in
the Production system, one in the Test system.
If we now take our dump and import in the test system, we have the tables from
the Production Mobile Server (which he generated in our schema while creating
the application in mobile manager) in the schema from the Test-Mobile Server
(CEQ$.., CVR$.....).
I don't think the Test Mobile Server can handle this, can't he?
I hope I described the problem understandable.
Regards,
Holger

Identification Test- and Production-System in Mapping

Hi,
we have a Java-function in a mapping step.
There we need an identification if it runs in our Test- or Production-system.
Currently we use a property file in the Java-Package for realizing this.
But this is not a very good solution. The last time we transport the archive to our production system somebody forgot to change this property file and therefore we had some trouble in our production.
Does anybody have an idea how we can identify the system name of the XI-system in a Java-Mapping?
Is there perhaps any constant we can use of the Map input-parameter?
In the documentation I didn't found anything about this.
Best Regards,
Thorsten

Thorsten,
Try using System.getProperty("SAPSYSTEMNAME") in your Java function.

Can I use my creative cloud products on more them one system at a time (Mac and PC)

Can I use my creative cloud products on more them one system at a time (Mac and PC)
I want to use the premiere on my Mac and some times on my PC.
Can I use it on other operating systems with one membership or do I have to purchase an other membership for my other system. I am only working on one system or the other at one time.
Thx

http://www.adobe.com/au/products/creativecloud/faq.html
Are there any unique benefits that come with my paid membership?
Yes, as a member of Creative Cloud, you get many benefits that you do not get when you purchase a traditional shrinkwrapped product:
Access to both the Mac OS and Windows® versions of the desktop applications and the ability to install them on your primary computer and one backup computer. So, if you have a Mac at home and a PC at work, you can install your applications on both as long as they are not running at the same time.

License for testing and production systems

Hi Experts
Can any one help me out on implementing license in my B1 System.
According to our contract we have licensed following user types:
User Type
Licensed
AddOn Access License 25
Professional User 5
Software Development Kit - Development Version 20
We have Test/development system in one hardware and Production system on different hardware. Please advice me how to request/allocate license for my test/development system and production system.
We tried creating a Test System in SAP Market place and requested license for test system. While requesting license for production system, it is found that the license is exceeded. In other words, developent system license also counted.
Please advice me on the best practices of B1 license implementation.
Thanks and regards
Ajith G

Hi,
Our customer wants to Keep the production data secure. Developers and consultants should not have the access to it.
Then you have only two options:
1.Either you should maintain a standalone b1 server for the developers and consultants to test their solutions and scenarios.
2.Otherwise you can create users in sql studio for accessing only the test database.
So that as per your requirement
All configurations and sample data will be kept in a test environment where developers and consultants can do their work.Once everything is correct Admin will do the transfer to production.
Note:New users can be created in the sql studio under Databases-><Company Db>->Security->Users, Rt.click new user
