Purpose

This configuration guide has been compiled to know how connect the Satellite

system to SAP Solution Manager.

Solution Manager Scenario Description

You have installed and configured the SAP Solution Manager but not yet pluggedthe Satellites Systems..To plug the Satellite, you need to complete a number of steps. You begin byactivating the SLD in SAP Solution Manager. Next, you configure and connect thesatellite. In the third and final step, you activate the SMD functions to use EWA Non Abap Functionality.

Note: General information and instructions for SAP Solution Manager can bedownloaded at:

Satellite

Check the DNS Name resolution between the Satellite system and solution

manager. Try to ping to the hostname and to the FQDN.Check the required service package are in the satellite systems (Menu: SystemStatus):

Service package and Support Package

Check if the required service packages are in the satellite systems (menu: System-> Status):

ST-PI Version 2005_1_and higher:

get data for SolutionMonitoring in the satellitesystems using the RFC backconnection from the satellitesystem to the SolutionManager.

put PFCG roles from thesatellite systems into projectstructures (from Add-On ST-PIVersion2005_1_SP03)

SAP note 539977 contains therelease strategy for ST-PI

ST-A/PI:

ST-A/PI is required in thesatellite to be able to deliversupport services.

See SAP note 560630 if yoursatellite systems do not satisfythe requirements

The ST-A/PI is in SAP note 69455.

ST-SER 700_2005_2 relevant for service delivery

with SAP_BASIS from WebAS 7.00SP05

SLD Configuration

There is 2 way to plug the Satellite to the SLD.If you are using SLD in Local (XI, Jco Destination, Portal, Etc) You need toReplicate/Synchronize the SLD Information between the SLD of the Satellite systemto the SLD of Solution Manager.

If you dont use the SLD in Local, you can plug the Satellite direct to the SLD ofSolution Manager.

3633756.doc Page 8 of 41


9/41


IN THIS PAPER WE USE DIRECT CONNECTION BETTWENT THE SATELLITETO THE SOLMAN SLD.

Satellite Task (Abap):

RZ70

Put the host and Service of Solution Manager ( If is not possible change becauseyou use the SLD in Local speak with the System Administrator for SLD DataReplication).

Satellite Task (Java):

VisualAdmin Server0ServicesSLD Data SupplierRuntimeHTTP Setting Tab: Put the right information and then click in the Transfer Button.

CIM Client Generation Settings Tab: Put the right information and then click inCIMClient Test to check the configuration

Satellite Task (Other):

You can use SLD to upload external sap products too, You can use to publish TREXservers, MDM, Mobile or any kind of systems..You need to Install 2 commands, sldreg: Used to create the Registration file toconnect to the SLD and the SapOsCol used to read all the technical information,you can found this files in the Kernel SP.cd / or SYS directory.sldreg -configure slddest.cfg usekeyfile.Complete:Username/PasswordSLD Host/Port/HTTPS

3633756.doc Page 9 of 41


10/41


This procedure generate the slddest.cfg file with the connection information.

Check the SapOsColrun saposcol b.You can check the Hardware Information in XML format.

Then you run the saposcol b | sldreg -connectfile slddest.cfg -stdin-oldtransferdtd.The system showHTTP response: Success.

HTTP status code: 200End SLD Registration

3633756.doc Page 10 of 41

Data send status: true

Check the Systems in SLD

In the http://hostname:50000/SLD of solution Manager Check in Technical system ifyou see the information of the recent adds system (Check if the Last Update is

correct).

12/41


Solution Manager:

We are using LongSID, This mean that we identify the satellite system with the

normal SID and adding a Suffix.We need to create the System Manually and then synchronize with the SLD. If youuse Normal SID you dont need to create the system manually.

Create the System

Create DB

In the Txcode: SMSYIs important put the first 3 letter from the DB and the hostname, with this fieldSolution Manager map the LongSID with the SID.

Create The Sap System

Is important put the first 3 letter from the sap system and the Installation Number,with this field Solution Manager map the LongSID with the SID.

Create the Java System

Is important put the first 3 letter from the sap system, the hostname and theInstallation Number, with this field Solution Manager map the LongSID with theSID.

Match the Smsy-SLD

In this step the Solution Manager read the SLD Information and match theInformation with the Satellite system defined in the SMSY.

Run SMSY_SETUP in Test mode Immediate

Wait until the process LANDSCAPE FETCH ends in SM37

Check in SMSY if the System was assigned in the right way. You can check if the

3633756.doc Page 12 of 41


13/41


Data Source is SLD, this mind that the Solution manager maps the LongSID withthe SID.

Assign the Right Components

In this sample we are connecting a BI, This product is SAP Netweaver 2004SBusiness Intelligence

MAP Component Abap/Java

In this sample we create the System DI3_042,(Java Stack of NW2004s BI)

We select the BI Java like relevant component and the system component DI3_042(Java Component)

Assign the Installation Number

Check if the installation number is correct in all the Sap System. This is importantbecause if you dont have the Installation Number the system cannot send the

Information to SMD.
