1 Introduction

SAP Business-All-in-One has been installed on a server with the Installation Wizard. Before you can use the system, you have to perform several post installation activities, some of them mandatory, some of them optional. This effort is required as some aspects of the deployment cannot be pre-packaged into the solution and instead must be performed on-site. We are attempting to accelerate these tasks by providing a sequence of steps for your reference.

This document describes step of four main steps of the FSP Bai0 deployment in a technical view.

Some post installation steps vary depending on the operating system. They are indicated accordingly.

1.1 About this Document Constraints

This cookbook is not an official SAP Installation Guide, nor is it a replacement to the official SAP Installation Guides. It is a complementary document for your installation.

Usage hints

When an SAP system is started, its memory buffers are not filled. Therefore the response times will be longer. The user has to run through the scenario once or twice to ensure that the data required is buffered. An online system is usually already buffered, as it is not restarted as often.

3 Post-Installation Steps

August 2009 9


3.1 Start and Stop the SAP Systems With the installation wizard, an ERP system and a Solution Manager System have been installed on the Windows Server 2008 system.

Procedure for starting the ERP System

Go to the SAP Management Console and start the SAP System

You will find on the Desktop the following Icon:

Start the SAP Management Console and you will get a windows like this example:

You can start the system if you take a right-click on the System-ID, go to “All Tasks” and select “Start….”

The next Windows will ask you for the password: Usually you logged in as the Administrator and use also the Administrator password:

Now the SAP System will start and it takes sometimes 10 min or more.

Procedure for to start the Solution Manager System

Go to the SAP Management Console and start the SAP System (SAP Solution Manager)

Start the Solution Manager on the same way as the SAP ERP system above.

The only different will be that you have 2 System ID: The System-ID SMD and the System-ID fort he Solution Manager for example SOM. The SMD status is usually already on green, because if you start the Operating System Windows the SMD will start with a service as well.

Procedure for to stop a SAP System

Start the SAP Management Console and you will get a windows like this example:

You can stop the system if you take a right-click on the System-ID, go to “All Tasks” and select “Stop….”

3.2.2 SAP MaxDB Database Administration

Start Database Studio; double click on the Icon at your desktop

Database Studio is SAP’s new tool for managing SAP MaxDB databases.

As of SAP MaxDB version 7.7, Database Studio replaces the Database Manager GUI, SQL Studio and Synchronization Manager tools. It also provides new functions, such as a graphical user interface for the Loader tool.

With Database Studio, you can create and configure databases, define database objects (data model), monitor databases, backup and restore databases, import and export data, and much more.

The Database Studio Welcome Page provides access to the SAP MaxDB website and the SAP MaxDB documentation.

Add Database The context menu (right mouse click on an item) is essential to use the Database Studio.

The options in the context menu depend on the item on which it was opened.

A right mouse click on Servers allows registering a new database server to Database Studio, the context menu on a server name allows registering databases which are installed on this server.

In the list of databases you can select which should be added to the Database Studio.

SAP MaxDB databases as of version 7.5 can be administered with Database Studio. As of SAP MaxDB version 7.7 Database Studio is required for managing databases.

Choose here to go to the Workbench


12 August 2009

User Management Specify at least one user and password for database connections.

You can either add the login information to each single database or (if several databases use the same user information) you can specify global login templates.

Login

Right-click on the database ID and choose

Select case sensitive and enter the following information

User Name control

User Password Password1


August 2009 13

Login Templates

In this example the context menu on the database name was opened to create a new entry in the global user management (Login Templates).

Right-click on the server and choose

We will get the Login Templates, choose

On the next screen select case sensitive and enter the following information

Template Name SAP_FSP_BAiO (for example)

Template Description SAP Fast Start Program for Business All-in-One (for example)

User Name control

User Password Password1

Administration The Administration window can be opened from the user‘s context menu.

The user needs to be a DBM operator or the database system administrator – SQL users are not permitted to administer the database instance.

In this window you can start and stop the database, monitor it, change the configuration and create backups

Right-click on the database ID and choose


14 August 2009

Now you get an overview about the database

SAP MaxDB knows three different operational states.

When the database is , everything is stopped – it is not possible to connect to the database.

In state the kernel process is active and administrative tasks can be performed. But it is not possible to connect with SQL users to the database.

When the database is up and running and available for all users to connect, the state is

called.

If we have the status we get additional information about the database volume, logs and more.

The database state can be changed in the Administration window.

The red traffic light button changes the database state to offline. You have to confirm that you want to stop the database.

The green traffic light button changes the database state to online.

The yellow traffic light button changes the database state to admin.

The database always shuts down (offline) when it is switched from online to admin mode, you can either switch to offline and then to admin or switch directly to admin. There is no difference!

The database state can also be changed in the context menu of the database -> Set State.

Right-click on the database ID and choose as following:


August 2009 15

Adding Data Space (Volume) In SAP MaxDB the data is automatically distributed to all volumes equally. Table space definitions are not necessary. Empty data pages are reused by the database automatically. No reorganization is necessary. To increase the data area you have to add a new data volume. For further info check MaxDB Database Administration Homepage.

Log settings SAP MaxDB offers different modes to run the log:

You can mirror the log area. If you can not use hardware-based mirroring for the log area (which is recommended), you can use the software-based mirroring setting from SAP MaxDB. When you choose software-based mirroring, you specify that the log entries are written to two log areas in parallel (mirrored). However, the log entries are read from one log area only.

You can decide to do without log backups by setting the overwrite mode for the log area accordingly. When you set the overwrite mode, the log area will be overwritten cyclically without the log entries having to be backed up first. The overwrite mode remains activated even after the database instance is stopped. To enable log backups again, you have to restart the backup history with a complete data backup. The status of the auto overwrite feature is stored in the log volume. After a recovery with initialization this status is reset to the default (which means that the auto overwrite feature is deactivated). After a recovery with initialization has been executed, the auto overwrite feature has to be activated again.

In very special situations, you can deactivate redo log management temporarily. When you deactivate redo log management, transactions no longer write their redo log entries to the log queue. Redo log management remains deactivated even after the database instance is stopped. You have to reactivate redo log management explicitly in state ADMIN and starting a new backup history with a complete data backup.

Database Backups

Backups are performed by the database process. Online backups of the volumes made with operating system tools (e.g. dd, copy) can not be used.

There are three backup types:

• Complete Data Backup: All data pages, configuration and parameter information.

• Incremental Data Backup: Backs up all data pages changed since the last complete data backup.

• Log Backup: All pages of log (in units of log segments) that have not already been backed up.

• Additionally, ‘Set AutoLog On’ automatically backs up the log as soon as a log segment is completed.

http://maxdb.sap.com/doc/7_7/1a/32c42a0fcf40b5b95ff7040a60aa41/frameset.htm


16 August 2009

You should keep several generations of Backups. For example tapes containing data or log backups should not be directly overwritten with the next backup.

The automatic log backup (auto save log mechanism) should always be active.

• If automatic log backup is not active, you must regularly check whether there is enough storage space available in the log area.

• You should regularly archive the version files written during a log backup to a medium of your choice.

Due to the database converter concept, SAP MaxDB does not support backup / restore of single tables/schemas. However, single tables/schemas can be extracted/loaded using the SAP MaxDB loader.

External Backup Tools

SAP MAxDB supports three kinds of external backup tools:

• Tivoli Storage Manager

• Networker

• Tools which support the Interface BackInt for Oracle or BackInt for SAP MaxDB

For details about Database/Database Backups please go to the following links:

Note: J - Japanese, 3 – Korean; P - Portuguese; E - English; S - Spanish Every line as to add or change separately like the following example: Select (double click) on the line:

And change the Parameter val. if it’s necessary

If the parameter does not exist, create it, click on the Button create Parameter button and add it as above.

After you have added or changed a parameter, save it and confirm the Maintain Profile dialog.

If you have finished all changes go back to the entry screen of “Edit Profiles”. The profile has not activated yet, we have to save and to activate it.

Press “Yes” to activate the profile.

You will get the following success message:

Please be aware for the profile to take effect for the particular application server, you have to restart the application server.

Finally you get the message about the status of the profile version that it has saved and activated.

Procedure for the Solution Manager System

Add or change the following lines:


22 August 2009

Icm/host_name_full = <SERVERNAME><URL> for example “Bogota.sap.corp” zcsa/installed_languages = DEPS abap/buffersize = 200000 login/system_client = 001

Every line must be added or changed separately like the Procedure for ERP System above.


August 2009 23

3.6 Load Generator Use

To avoid the compilation of the system executing any transaction the SAP Load Generator has to be started after every system configuration.

The first time after the system installation, the SGEN should be performed over night as it may take several hours.

Pre-Requisite

Before you will start the compilation job you have to change temporarily the following parameter with the transaction RZ11. Start the transaction RZ11

Enter the profile rdisp/max_wprun_time .

The current value is too small and if you not will change the value we will get a timeout error during to setup the compilation job. Change the value to 60000. Push the button “Change Value ”.

Change the value to new 60000 and save it.

Now you get the message that the new value is not permanent and will be lost when the server is restarted. Quit with enter.

Now, the new value for the parameter rdisp/max_wprun_time is 60000.

Procedure

Log into your ERP system

Start the transaction SGEN.

Choose the option Generate All Objects of Selected Software Components and push the

button .

Mark the corresponding components for example (all) and push the button

Choose the Server, usually you have only one server at the list and push the button

Now it takes a while until the system has selected the entire object which it should compile.

It could be that you will get a timeout error, because the system has to compile the SGEN objects. In that case start SGEN again.


24 August 2009

Now, we can schedule the job. We suggest scheduling the job overnight, because it takes a while.

Check also the Database Volume. If the database is almost full, extend the database volume as described in the chapter SAP MaxDB Database Administration .

3.8 SAP License Installation Use

After the initial installation only a temporary license valid for 4 weeks is installed. During this time, a permanent SAP Demo License key has to be installed.

It’s recommended to apply for a permanent license key as soon as possible after installing the system.

If the temporary license expires, only the user SAP* can log on to the SAP system. With the temporary license, new repository objects can’t be created or SAP repository objects can’t be modified.

Find more information about the License key on the SAP Service Marketplace:


Enter the following information in the SAP Service Marketplace:

System-ID EH3

System name SAP BAiO for <your language>

System type Demo system

Product version SAP ERP

Technical usage SAP ERP Central Component

Database MaxDB (former SAPDB)

Operating system NT/INTEL

Planned productive date 99.99.9999

Enter the Hardware key from your SAP ERP System from the transaction slicense, select the License type and Valid until date.

Execute again transaction SLICENSE in the system. Choose Edit -> Install License

Upload then the license file you got from SAP.

The license key is activated immediately after its installation. Afterwards, Saplicense-install will be executed on the computer.

3.10 System Landscape 3.10.1 SAP Router Installation and Configuration

Use

The SAPRouter is a SAP program which has the function of an intermediate station (proxy) in a network connection between SAP systems, or between SAP systems and external networks. The program controls the access to your network. Thus it’s an enhancement to an existing firewall system.

SAP offers its customer’s access to support and different remote services, e. g. the EarlyWatch Service or the GoingLive Service. For that, you have to set up a remote network connection to SAP. For details go to http://service.sap.com/remoteconnection, see also SAP Note 35010.

The SAP Support Portal is the SAP-based service system. It’s the technical link

between the SAP customer and SAP. The SAPRouter controls the connections between the customer’s system and SAP.

Procedure

Please refer to the following documents in order to complete this work:

- SAP Note 28976

- SNC: Installing crypto functions: therefore log into the SAP Service Marketplace -> Help& Support (service.sap.com/remoteconnection – follow path below)

You can download the SAPRouter in the Service Market Place at the Software Download Center: http://service.sap.com/swdc. In that case you need an S-user and the particular authorizations.

Select in the Launchpad Download � Support packages and Patches � Support Packages and Patches – Entry by Application Group

http://service.sap.com/remoteconnection





30 August 2009

Now you get the following screen and select on the right column Additional Components

Select SAPROUTER � SAPROUTER 7.10 �� Windows Server on x64 64 bits

Select the latest version and add it to the Download Basket

Now, you have got a SAR.file which is a particular SAP compressed file. We have to decompress this file now as follow:

Prerequisites: SAPCAR.EXE. You can download it also from the Service Market Place – Software Download Center http://service.sap.com/swdc

Start the Windows Console: Start � Run � cmd

You to your drive and directory where you system is installed for example d:\usr\sap

Create the subdirectory saprouter in the directory <drive>:\usr\sap : you can use the following command md saprouter

Go to the subdirectory with the command cd saprouter

With the following command you can decompress the sar-file:

Sapcar.exe –xvf d:\download\saprouter_2-20002415.sa r

We need also the file ntscmgr.exe. The ntscmgr can be downloaded from note 618053 and copy it also to the folder \saprouter.

sapnote_0000618053.

pdf

If SAPRouter has already been entered as a service with srvany.exe, remove the definition of the service from the Registry and restart the host.

Define the service with the following command:

ntscmgr install SAPRouter -b ...\saprouter\saproute r.exe -p “service -r <parameter>“

Define the general attributes of the service: In Control Panel � Services , set the startup type to “automatic ” and enter a user. SAProuter should not run under the SystemAccount



August 2009 31

To avoid the error message “The description for Event ID (0)” in the Windows NT event log, you must enter the following in the registry:

Select START � Run � regedit

Under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE � SYSTEM � CurrentControlSet � Services � Eventlog � Application , create the key saprouter and define the following values under it:

Name Type Data

EventMessageFile REG_SZ ....\saprouter\saprouter.exe

TypesSupported REG_DWORD 0x7

3.10.2 Transport Management System (TMS)

Use

As we have not predetermined the client landscape, the TMS has also not been predefined within the SAP Business All-in-One fast start solution.

However TMS is required to be configured.

Using the sample client structure as defined in the appendix (and discussed above) the Master client in Dev should be made as the source for TMS with the Production client the target.

Additional documentation for this step can be found by using the following link:

http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_03/helpdata/EN/14/94fc3f8fc2c542e10000000a1550b0/content.htm




32 August 2009

The ASAP Focus Methodology includes several documents of interest when configuring the TMS. These should save considerable time on a project deployment if used as a reference:

SAPC-MMPS-DEV-Clients-Role.vsd

SAPC-MMPS-DEV-Transports-Strategy.vsd

SAPC-MMPS-R3-Landscape.vsd

SAPC-MMPS-Transport-Request.doc

The following example shows how the TMS can be set up for a productive and a development system:

1) Setup TMS in the Productive System

At first login to client 000 of the productive system.

Start the transaction STMS

If a Transport Domain is already available delete this TMS Configuration:

Menu � Extras � Delete TMS Configuration

Now configure the Transport Domain in the Productive System.

Start the transaction STMS.

Save


August 2009 33

2) Setup TMS in the Development System

Login in to client 000 of the Development System.

Start the transaction STMS.

Save


34 August 2009

Click on the icon

Go to the Menu � Configuration � Standard Configuration � Development and Production System.


August 2009 35

Select the ZDEV Transport and click on the Icon

Select the ZDEV Transport and click on the Icon Delete

Select “Delete Selected Links”

Save


36 August 2009

Push the button YES.

3.11 Additional Basic Tasks 3.11.1 Setting up of logon groups

Use

In SAP Logon, you can create and delete group entries, remove instances from groups, and delete entire logon groups.

When you call transaction SMLG, the CCMS: Maintain Logon Groups screen shows a table with entries for logon groups and the associated instances. An entry in this table, which is characterized by an instance and a logon group, is known as assignment. A logon group to which multiple instances belong therefore consists of multiple assignments in this table, where an assignment contains one instance in each case.

Procedure

Create a logon group or adding an instance to a logon group

1. Call transaction SMLG.

2. Choose (Create Assignment), and specify the desired name of the logon group in the Logon Group input field. Enter the name of the desired Instance that is to belong to the logon group.

The logon group SPACE is reserved for SAP; therefore, do not use this name.

3. Repeat the last step until you have entered all instances that are to belong to the logon group.

4. Save your changes.

3.11.2 Installation of printers

Use

All devices, servers, and so on that are involved in printing are defined and managed in spool administration (transaction SPAD).

In the spool administration, you can perform the following tasks:

• Setting Up Output Devices and Managing Output Devices

• Setting Up and Managing Spool Servers

• Setting Up and Managing Device Type

• Maintaining Character Sets

• Setting Up and Managing Output Management Systems

• Delete old Spool Requests

• Check the Consistency of the Spool Database

Procedure

Log into the system and perform the spool administration via transaction SPAD.

3.11.3 Configuration of the system log

http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/EN/7e/36e4c4023411d399b70000e83dd9fc/content.htm

http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/EN/d9/4a905c51ea11d189570000e829fbbd/content.htm


38 August 2009

Use

For all system errors, warnings, user locks (due to failed logon attempts from known users) and process messages logs are generated by the SAP system. The system creates two types of logs:

Local Logs

Central Logs

Procedure

Log into the system and configure the log via transaction SM21.

It’s recommended that you also maintain a central log file on a selected application server. Then each individual application server can send its local log messages to this server. It collects the messages from the other applications servers and writes these messages to the central log. The central log consists of two files: the active file (profile parameter rslg/central/file) and the old file (profile parameter rslg/central/old_file).

3.11.3 Client copy

Use

During the installation, four ABAP clients are created: 000, 001, 066, 100 and 200. The production client has to be a copy of the SAP reference client 000.

Prerequisites

An RFC-connection from the new client to the reference client has to be established.

Procedure

1. Log into client 000 and call transaction SM 30 view maintenance. Define the logical system that the new client is to represent in view V_TBDLS. 2. Start transaction SCC4 for maintaining the clients and define the new client. Also specify the logical system you have just created and the currency that has the role of group currency. You must also define the role of the client and the settings for the transport connection and the changeability of cross-system data. (You can only assign “Production” status if the client has been fully set up because, otherwise, the tools of the client copy cannot be used).

3. Log into the new client. With a new client, no users are created as yet. The newly-created client contains the initial user SAP* with the password PASS, which you can use to copy a client.

Usually, the user SAP* is inactive by default in a new client. To activate the user SAP*, set the profile parameter login/no_automatic_user_sapstar to 0, and restart the application server. (Refer to Notes 2383, 2467 and 68048.)

4. Create the RFC-connection to client 000 via transaction SM59 and create the RFC-user in client 000.

5. Execute transaction FINB_TR_DEST in the new client and enter the newly created RFC-connection.


August 2009 39

6. Start transaction SCCL (local client copy) in the target client. Enter client 000 as a source client and the SAP_CUST profile as copy profile.

Always use client 000 as a template, and never client 001. Do not copy any application data from client 000 because the consistency of data and the number ranges cannot be guaranteed.

7. Afterwards the log files should be checked via transaction SCC3.

8. Protect the client against future overwriting by the tools of the client copy. To do this, start the transaction for maintaining clients – SCC4 – again and set the corresponding indicator.

9. Create the users you need, at least with the authorization for user administration and system administration. Create a user SAP* with all the necessary authorizations for this user.

10. Deactivate the default user SAP* by resetting the profile parameter login/no_automatic_user_sapstar to 1. Afterwards the application server has to be restarted.

Additional documentation for this step can be found by using the following link:

http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_03/helpdata/EN/69/c24c0f4ba111d189750000e8322d00/content.htm

3.11.4 Change the entry screen

Use

The predefined solution built on the APA baseline comes with several clients - the information is published on the SAP logon screen. Depending on the country version, clients would have to be deleted accordingly and hence an update to this information is necessary on the SAP logon screen.

To change the screen, proceed as follows.

1. Start the transaction SE61

2. Select Document Class: General text and name: ZLOGIN_SCREEN_INFO

3. Push the button Change.




40 August 2009

4. Make your changes then save them

3.11.6 Developer Key

Use

For several later upcoming tasks, e. j. the change of SAP dictionary objects, a developer key is required.

Additional information can be found within note 86161.

You can create this key on the SAP Service Market Place at SSCR SAP Software Change Registration: http://service.sap.com/sscr

In that case you need an S-user and the appropriate authorizations.
