What is new in Enhancement Package 2 and 3

Hi all,
The [ERP Solution Browser|http://solutionbrowser.erp.sap.fmpmedia.com/] is an excellent tool to find out, what's new. However I did not find any means to get a list of new features in ERP 6.0 enhancement packages 2 and 3. Any hint (especially what's new in HCM) is welcome!
Regards
Matthias

Hello Matthias,
check out Service Marketplace, alias ERP-EhP to find out what's being delivered as part of an Enhancement Package:
http://service.sap.com/erp-ehp (logon required).
Basically, it provides the following:
link to SAP Enhancement Package Infocenter to understand the content based on functional domain, e.g. HCM.
documentation on
- EhP concept and strategy
- overview presentation SAP ERP EhP 2 and 3
- detailed presentation SAP ERP EhP 2 and 3
- preview SAP ERP EhP4
- how to implement EhP ("Must know guide for IT professionals")
- test case templates
- links to other useful resources (e.g. ERP solution map, media library, functional areas)
Hope this helps!

What are best practice for packaging and deploying j2EE apps to iAS?

We've been running a set of J2EE applications on a pair of iAS SP1b for about a year and it has been quite stable.
Recently however we have had a number of LDAP issues, particularly when registering and unregistering applications (registering ear files sometimes fails 1st time but may work 2nd time). Also We've noticed very occasionally that old versions of classes sometimes find their way onto our machines.
What is considered to be best practice in terms of packaging and deployment, specifically:
1) Packaging - using the deployTool that comes with iAS6 SP1b to package is a big manual task, especially when you have 200+ jsp files. Are people out there using this or are they scripting it with a build tool such as Ant?
2) Deploying an existing application to multiple iAS's. Are you guys unregistering old application then reregistering new application? Are you shutting down iAS whilst doing the deployment?
3) Deploying ear files can take 5 to 10 mins, is this normal?
4) In a clustered scenario where HTTPSession is shared what are the consequences of doing deployments to data stored in session?
thanks in asvance for your replies

You may want to consider upgrading your application server environment to a newer service pack. There are numerous enhancements involving the deployment tool and run time layout of your application that make clear where you're application is loading its files from.
If you've at a long running application server environment, with lots of deployments under your belt, you might start to notice slow downs in deployment and kjs start time. Generally this is due to garbage collecting in your iAS registry.
You can do several things to resolve this. The most complete solution is to reinstall the application server. This will guarantee a clean ldap registry. Of course you've got to restablish your configurations and redeploy your applications. When done, backup your application server install space with the application server and directory server off. You can use this backup to return to a known configuation at some future time.
For the second method: <B>BE CAREFUL - BACKUP FIRST</B>
There is a more exhaustive solution that involves examining your deployed components to determine the active GUIDS. You then search the NameTrans section of the registry searching for Applogic Servlet *, and Bean * entries that represent your previously deployed components but are represented in the set of deployed GUIDs. Record these older GUIDs, remove them from ClassImp and ClassDef. Finally remove the older entries from NameTrans.
Best practices for deployment depend on your particular environmental needs. Many people utilize ANT as a build tool. In later versions of the application server, complete ANT scripts are included that address compiling, assembly and deployment. Ant 1.4 includes iAS specific targets and general J2EE targets. There are iAS specific targets that can be utilized with the 1.3 version. Specialized build targets are not required however to deploy to iAS.
Newer versions of the deployment tool allow you to specify that JSPs are not to be registered automatically. This can be significant if deployment times lag. Registered JSP's however benefit more fully from the services that iAS offers.
2) In general it is better to undeploy then redeploy. However, if you know that you're not changing GUIDs, recreating an existing application with new GUIDs, or removing registered components, you may avoid the undeploy phase.
If you shut down the KJS processes during deployment you can eliminate some addition workload on the LDAP server which really gets pounded during deployment. This is because the KJS processes detect changes and do registry loads to repopulate their caches. This can happen many times during a deployment and does not provide any benefit.
3) Deploying can be a lengthy process. There have been improvements in that performance from service pack to service pack but unfortunately you wont see dramatic drops in deployment times.
One thing you can do to reduce deployment times is to understand the type of deployment. If you have not manipulated your deployment descriptors in any way, then there is no need to deploy. Simply drop your newer bits in to the run time space of the application server. In later service packs this means exploding the package (ear,war, or jar) in to the appropriate subdirectory of the APPS directory.
4) If you've changed the classes of objects that have been placed in HTTPSession, you may find that you can no longer utilize those objects. For that reason, it is suggested that objects placed in session be kept as simple as possible in order to minimize this effect. In general however, is not a good idea to change a web application during the life span of a session.

Hi Partson,
It is needed to connect this system with solution manager and create stack.xml using
maintanance optimizer. The main aim of this is to let you know what usage types/ functionalities are to be
selected from stack.xml.
It is also needed to download all the required support packs/ addons using maintanance optimizer.
If you have DVDs containing the same product that matches with stack.xml, you can provide them.
But the safest way is is to give all the tasks to solution manager , It will create , and download neccesary sps, addons to your
download basket.
Thanks and Regards

App-v 4.6: new version of package?

Hi,
I have this App-v 4.6 package I need to change/upgrade. I can see in the app-v management server there are already some versions (1.1, 1.2 and now I need to make 1.3). Not sure howto though.
The package is on a dfs-share \\ourcompany\share\.
What I did before = upgrade package and save it to the location on dfs but then I'm lost, how can I add a new version?
I'm looking for a screenshotted step by step guide.
Pls advise.

Hi,
The new .sft file gets only updated on the client when the package is not in use at all. In a TS/RDS environment this means that *no* user may use any application of that to-update package.
As soon as 3.3 has finished any the package is not in use on a client for a moment, the next user who launches the application will initiate downloading/streaming the new .sft to that RDS/TS server.
@3.4 I admit that overwriting the 'other' files is a downside, but MS hasn't implemented any versioning feature for these files. As a good practice you should have a static package repository somewhere that stores each version ov every package - just as
an archive.
Why should you update the OSDs and alike?
In fact technically this might not be necessary.
When an App-V package should get added to a client (like a newly built RDS server), the App-V client will connect to the ManSrv, retreive the AppList for a user and download and parse the OSDs. In there it reads 'Use sft_v3'. Then the client requests 'sft_v3'
from the ManServer, but that says: Hold on, my friend, I do have a newer version, sft_v5, for you'. Then the client downloads v5. This justs takes some time, but won't hurt.
Things get worse when you (or somebody else) figures out that you have already 5 of those 'megapack_X.sft' files in your content share. So you say 'C'mon, we don't need 1..4 any more, my users are working with v5 for a while now) - and you do that maybe
for several packages.
After a while you decide to built a new App-V infra (new sub, lab,. whatever) and want to copy/import your exisiting packages to that new infrastructure. So guess what's happening: You select to import a new package into the console, it's asking you for
the .sprj that you specify. Then the console parses the OSDs, but they haven't been updated (you wanted to skip 3.4.) - they still point to v1 of the SFT, that isn't there anymore. To bad, right?
Same would happen if you bring back such a package to the sequencer - the
So, 3.4 is basically for consitency. There are methods to fix inconsitency, but you should avoid them.

Drivers - Can you do both "Apply Driver Package" and "Auto Apply Device Drivers - PNP" in the same Task Seqeunce ?

Hi All,
It has been mentioned to be that it is possible to have both "Apply Driver Package" and "Auto Apply Device Drivers - PNP' " specified in the same task sequence, with some kind of logic specified that if the Apply Driver Package step does
not run due to the hardware wmi query not being valid then the 'Apply Device Drivers -PNP' will run instead. Vice-versa - if the "Apply Driver Package" wmi query is correct and driver package applied then the 'Auto Apply Device Drivers -PNP'
will not run and be skipped.
Is this possible ?
I can't seem to find any documentation or reference indication this can be done. :-(
Many thanks everyone..

To add some info here, note that the end result of both tasks is the same. Neither actually *installs* drivers in any way. Both simply copy the drivers to the target system and inject them into the image being deployed where they are then available to Windows
Setup (which runs during the Setup Windows and ConfigMgr task) to install based upon the Windows Setup standard PNP detection.
Thus, using both task types, depending upon what is in the driver packages and what is detected by the OSD PNP detection (which differs slightly from the OS PNP which is far more complex and has been described as a "black art"), potentially injects
more drivers into the image potentially making more drivers available to Windows Setup. This could of course increase your deployment time.
I've thought about this approach before and it is technically valid, but I've never had to resort to it. I've always just made sure that the drivers packages are complete. If you're trying to address the scenario of hardware without a explicit driver package,
I could see it working but I could also see it causing problems because drivers are weird. In general, I would recommend always testing new hardware and anything not accounted for is considered unsupported.

Deployment error in Enhancement package Galaxy

Hi,
I am trying to do Netweaver BPM end-to end process implementation example. i followed all the steps as in the link
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/d07f3e88-554f-2b10-3cbf-ab8afea51b9f
At the final stage of deployment,i got the dependency error.
have i missed any component to be installed other than enhancement package and nwds?
Note: As said in the sample implemetation i coudnt find role BPEM in NWA.Since i didnt have BPEM role in NWA i mapped the users created to admin role.
Please help.

Dear Sarasvathi Manojkumar,
Software Component with the name BPEM-CONTENT has to contain these several Development Components:
SoftwareComponent                     Name
sap.com/BPEM-CONTENT     tcbpemcontenteventusprocess
sap.com/BPEM-CONTENT     tcbpemcontenteventuswdui
sap.com/BPEM-CONTENT     tcbpemcontentpredefsdefault
sap.com/BPEM-CONTENT     tcbpemcontentpredefstypes
You can check this using again NWA - > System Information -> Go to tab u201CComponents infou201D and when you select the record of the Software Component u201CBPEM-CONTENTu201D.
If these components are available then the problem most probably is that your SAP NetWeaver Developer Studio (version for EHP1 for SAP NetWeaver CE 7.1) is trying to deploy to a server different from EHP1 for SAP NetWeaver CE 7.1 server.
In order to fix this problem you have to go to SAP NetWeaver Developer Studio (EHP1 for SAP NetWeaver CE 7.1) -> Window -> Preferences -> SAP AS Java (click on this node) and to make sure that server installation of the EHP1 for SAP NetWeaver CE 7.1 is the default System Instance/Numbers. This has to be the same server where you found the u201CBPEM-u201C Software components.
Regarding the role problem you have to make sure that you are searching correctly in the NWA User Management because the software components containing this role is within the list with components mentioned by you as deployed and available on the engine. If you open the step-by-step guide on step 183, you have to make sure that you are executing the search using the search criteria u201Croleu201D (there are other search criteriau2019s: u201Cuseru201D, u201Cgroupu201D and u201Cactionu201D but you have to be looking for "role". The search criteria u201Cuseru201D is the default one when you open the UME and if you are using it, this could cause the problem).
Please also make sure that you type exactly BPEM because this will find the proper role with name: u201Cpcd:portal_content/com.sap.pct/every_user/com.sap.bpem/com.sap.bpem.roles/com.sap.bpem.Enduseru201D and description u201CBPEM End Useru201D.

How to include an enhancement package with upgrade without Solution Manager

Hello,
I have been trying to do an upgrade from SAP R3 46C to ERP6 in my sandbox. I want to include Enhancment package 3 with the upgrade. I have tried using the Solution Manager to download the Enhancement package and it work fine except that it did not create the XML Stack configuration file that the upgrade is looking for. Therefore I downloaded the DVD for Enhancement package 3 and included that in the mounted CDs in the PREPARE portion of the upgrade and it does not recognize it.
Now for my question, is there a way to include the Enhancement package with the upgrade without using Solution Manager? If so, could someone please let me know where to find the information or share the procedure with me?
Thank you in advance,
Ron

The EPs are just like support packages (optional); if the upgrade is not letting you put it during upgrade then just do it once the upgrade is completed.

What's new in 8.81?

Hi - I've seen many web casts and docs etc on what's new in 8.81 and it looks like a lot of improved functionality. Does anyone know where I can find an official SAP document to talk over with prospective clients showing them what is new?
Many thanks
TG

Hi Tim............
If you download SAP setup 8.81 there you find the documentation in which What's new documents are there......

HT3180 What's new page won't go away

What's new page is up and the remote clicks (something even plays in the background...) but the page won't go away.

Ive had this issue too and it frustrated me for weeks, but i just fixed it tonight.
Hopefully you can do this same.
If you power up appletv you will get to that whats new screen. Wait for 5 minutes (seems a long time when youre waiting!), but eventually that screen will time out and it will move on to the main page.
Now test your apple tv remote, the real one. Does it work on this screen? Mine didnt. Did before the update and now not.
So get another remote, maybe youve got a multifunction remote or an ios device.
I used my iphone remote app and scrolled along to setting>general>remotes.
in this screen there was a setting for Unpair apple remte. So i thought id unpair and then re-pair again.
Did that but still the factory remote wasnt working.
So then i unpaired again, without re-pairing.
Now it works.
Its like the Pair/Unpair menu label is back to front (or something, cant explain it really).
So then i powered apple tv down and then back up to get to that whats new page. Pressed the remote and YAY! the screen is gone.
I dont know what to do if youve lost the remote that came with apple tv, but a little hint form my household is that it was WAY down deep in the side of the couch that i sit on the most - the shape of the thing just makes it burrow deeper down every day!
Hope this helps someone

I bought a new laptop and tried to reinstall Photoshop elements 11. I saved the original packaging and everything inside(or so I thought). I can't find the serial number anywhere.what if anything an I do?

I bought a new laptop and tried to reinstall Photoshop Elements 11. I saved saved the original packaging and all contents (or so I thought). I can't find the serial number anywhere. Any thoughts on what I can do?

If you originally registered your product the serial number will be stored in your Adobe account. Click the red logo (top left on this web page) sign-in, and then click the Manage Account button. It should be possible to browse your purchase history. You are looking for a 24 digit number commencing 1o57.

FB4: New package and new folder. What's the difference?

Hi,
What's the difference between creating a new package and creating a new folder?
Both options seem the same to me.

Here is my understanding of it. Packages are for structured code repositories (ie. com.mysite.utils) and folders are for assets. I don't think the IDE really cares what you put in them but Packages are (to me) simply 'helpers'.

New to Enhancements and Modifications in SAP ABAP

Hi experts,
Could anyone has a tutorials or ebooks on this topic? I need to learn more about this.. tnx in advance!!!

Hi
Enhancements and User Exits
User exits (Function module exits) are exits developed by SAP. The exit is implementerd as a call to a function module. The code for the function module is written by the developer. You are not writing the code directly in the function module, but in the include that is implemented in the function module.
The naming standard of function modules for functionmodule exits is:
EXIT_<program name><3 digit suffix>
The call to a functionmodule exit is implemented as:
CALL CUSTOMER.-FUNCTION <3 digit suffix>
To find a Exit.
Goto Transaction -- Find The Package
SMOD >f4>Use the Package here to Find the Exits In the Package.
Else if you Want to search by Application Area wise ,
There is one more tab to find the Exits in the Respective Application Area.
Implementing the Exit-- CMOD Create ProjectsAssgn your Component .
Now Run ur Transaction to Check if it Triggers.
Thats it..
Suppose you need to find out all the user exits related to a tcode.
1. Execute the Tcode.
2. Open the SAP program.
3. Get the Development Class.
4. Execute Tcode SE84.
5. Open the Node 'Envir. -> Exit Techniques -> 'Customer Exits -> Enhancements'
6. Enter the Development class and execute.
Check out this thread..
The specified item was not found.
1. Type the transaction : system->status-> <PROG. NAME>
2 open SE37 , type EXIT<PROG NAME> and press F4 to get the list of function exits available.
3. Open CMOD utilities->SAP enhancements
EDIT->All selections
4.type the function module name obtained in step 2, in fields 'component name' in 'additional selections' block. and execute.
5. The displayed list contains the enhancements names for the transaction You were looking for.
6. Create a project in CMOD and the code in default include->activate.

Defines a position in an ABAP program as an enhancement option, at which one or more source code plug-ins can be inserted.
Syntax
ENHANCEMENT-POINT enh_id SPOTS spot1 spot2 ...
[STATIC]
[INCLUDE BOUND].
Extras:
1. ... STATIC
2. ... INCLUDE BOUND
Effect
: This statement defines an explicit enhancement option at the current position in the program at which a source code enhancement can be made. In program generation, the source code plug-ins of the assigned enhancement implementation that are available in the current system and have a switch in the status stand-by or on, are inserted at this position.
If the addition STATIC is not specified, the source code enhancement is dynamic. This means that in program execution, only those source code plug-ins are executed whose switch has the status on. If a source code plug-in does not have a switch assigned to it, it is handled in the same way as a plug-in with a switch in the status on.
With enh_id, an ID must be specified directly for the enhancement option, which is unique in the current compilation unit without the addition INCLUDE BOUND, and with this addition, is unique in current Include program. At least one enhancement spot must be assigned to the enhancement option using the specification simple enhancement spots spot1, spot2, and so on.
Within enhancements, one or more source code plug-ins can be created for one enhancement option. A source code plug-in is created by the assignment of an enhancement implementation in the Enhancement Builder. This automatically generates an empty source code plug-in with a unique ID, which is displayed underneath ENHANCEMENT-POINT in the Editor, where the actual enhancement can be implemented between ENHANCEMENT and ENDENHANCEMENT.
A source code plug-in is assigned to only one enhancement option. Multiple source code plug-ins of one enhancement implementation and the source code plug-ins of multiple enhancement implementations can be assigned to one enhancement point.
Notes
: In the terminology of the enhancement concept, the statement ENHANCEMENT-POINT includes both the enhancement spot element definition and the enhancement spot invocation of the enhancement option.
The statement ENHANCEMENT-POINT can either be entered directly or created by choosing Edit ? Enhancement operations ? Create enhancement in the Enhancement Builder. After the program has been saved or created using Edit ? Enhancement operations ? Create enhancement, the statement can only be deleted by choosing Edit ? Enhancement operations ? Delete enhancement.
In addition to the enhancement options explicitly specified by ENHANCEMENT-POINT, ABAP programs also contain implicit enhancement points, which can also be enhanced using source code plug-ins.
Addition 1
... STATIC
Effect
: The addition STATIC is used to define a static source code enhancement. In a static source code enhancement, all incorporated source code plug-ins are taken into account when the program is executed, including those whose switch is in the status stand-by.
Note
: The STATIC addition is intended for the enhancement of data declarations, while the statement ENHANCEMENT-POINT without the STATIC addition is designed for the enhancement of executable coding. When the statement is executed using Enhancements ? Create enhancement, the addition is set according to this selection.
Addition 2
... INCLUDE BOUND
Effect
: This addition can be entered in Include programs. It links the source code enhancement to the current Include program. Each program that incorporates an Include program only includes the source code enhancements that are defined with this addition. Source code enhancements created using the INCLUDE BOUND addition have their own namespace in each Include program. This ensures that if several Include programs are integrated into one compilation unit, no namespace conflicts arise, either between Include programs, or with the source code enhancements of the compilation unit.
Without the addition INCLUDE BOUND, a source code enhancement is assigned to only one compilation unit. If the statement ENHANCEMENT-POINT is executed in an Include program without this addition, a compilation unit must be assigned to it in the Enhancement Builder.
Note
: In an Include program, Include-bound and non-Include-bound source code enhancements can not be defined at the same time. This also applies if an Include program incorporates other Include programs.
Enhancement points are points provided by sap in standard programs to modify the source code. Go to any standard program, Locate the spiral button on the toolbar. Then press it and then navigate to edit->enhancement operations->display enhancement point menu. Then a no of yellow lines would appear, which are the available en points. You would have to change it and write the applicable source code.

Hi,
There no new functionality in ECC 6.0 for auto clearing of bank clearing account. Still you need to depend on Manual / Electronic bank statement to clear them.

Cisco Identity Services Engine (ISE) Version 1.2: What's New in Features and Troubleshooting Options

With Ali Mohammed
Welcome to the Cisco Support Community Ask the Expert conversation. This is an opportunity to learn and ask questions about what’s new in Cisco Identity Services Engine (ISE) Version 1.2 and to understand the new features and enhanced troubleshooting options with Cisco expert Ali Mohammed.
Cisco ISE can be deployed as an appliance or virtual machine to enforce security policy on all devices that attempt to gain access to network infrastructure. ISE 1.2 provides feature enrichment in terms of mobile device management, BYOD enhancements, and so on. It also performs noise suppression in log collection so customers have greater ability to store and analyze logs for a longer period.
Ali Mohammed is an escalation engineer with the Security Access and Mobility Product Group (SAMPG), providing support to all Cisco NAC and Cisco ISE installed base. Ali works on complicated recreations of customer issues and helps customers in resolving configuration, deployment, setup, and integration issues involving Cisco NAC and Cisco ISE products. Ali works on enhancing tools available in ISE/NAC that are required to help troubleshoot the product setup in customer environments. Ali has six and a half years of experience at Cisco and is CCIE certified in security (number 24130).
Remember to use the rating system to let Ali know if you have received an adequate response.
Because of the volume expected during this event, Ali might not be able to answer each question. Remember that you can continue the conversation on the Security community, sub-community shortly after the event. This event lasts through September 6, 2013. Visit this forum often to view responses to your questions and the questions of other community members.

Hi Ali,
We currently have a two-node deployment running 1.1.3.124, as depicted in diagram:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/security/ise/1.2/upgrade_guide/b_ise_upgrade_guide_chapter_010.html#ID89
Question 1:
After step 1 is done, node B becomes the new primary node.
What's the license impact at that stage, when the license is mainly tied to node A, the previous primary PAN?
Step 3 says to obtain a new license that's tied to both node A & node B, as if it's implying an issue would arise, if we leave node B as the primary PAN, instead of reverting back to node A.
=========
Question 2:
When step 1 is completed, node B runs 1.2, while node A runs 1.1.3.124.
Do both nodes still function as PSN nodes, and can service end users at that point? (before we proceed to step 2)
Both nodes are behind our ACE load balancer, and I'm trying to confirm the behavior during the upgrade, to determine when to take each node out of the load balancing serverfarm, to keep the service up and avoid an outage.
===========
Question 3:
According to the upgrade guide, we're supposed to perform a config backup from PAN & MnT nodes.
Is the config backup used only when we need to rollback from 1.2 to 1.1.3, or can it be used to restore config on 1.2?
It also says to record customizations & alert settings because after the upgrade to 1.2, these settings would change, and we would need to re-configure them.
Is this correct? That's a lot of screen shots we'll need to take; is there any way to avoid this?
It says: "
Disable services such as Guest, Profiler, Device Onboarding, and so on before upgrade and enable them after upgrade. Otherwise, you must add the guest users who are lost, and devices must be profiled and onboarded again."
Exactly how do you disable services? Disable all the authorization policies?
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/security/ise/1.2/upgrade_guide/b_ise_upgrade_guide_chapter_01.html#reference_4EFE5E15B9854A648C9EF18D492B9105
==================
Question 4:
The 1.1 user guide says the maximum number of nodes in a node group was 4.
The 1.2 guide now says the maximum is 10.
Is there a hard limit on how many nodes can be in a node group?
We currently don't use node group, due to the lack of multicast support on the ACE-20.
Is it a big deal not to have one?
