Using a direct connection

to the message server 

No additional configuration steps

necessary

Is primarily targeted for manual

rollout in small landscapes

 Agent can be installed and

connection is available

instantaneous

Connecting Agents to the Solution Manager  Available connection options

Using the SLD connection

(Agent Candidate

Management)

 Agent can be installed without

having access or credentials to theSolution Manager system

 Agent can be provided with new

connection data, even when not

connected to the Solution Manager 

system

Standard when agent is installed

together with SAP NetWeaver based product

Connecting the agent to the

Solution Manager system can take

up to 30 minutes

Recommendation: Connect the agent

during the installation directly to the

Solution Manager, but also enable the

registration in SLD to be able to use the

extended connection features (available

with Diagnostics Agent 7.20)

Update SLD CR Content & Model

LMDB requires some minimun version of the CR Content and the model installed in

at least one connected SLD:

• CR Content: latest available

• Model Version: minimum 1.6.16, better latest available

To check, open SLDhttp://sldhost:sldport/sld

Check Prerequesites

Minimum SLD Versions

In order to be able to connect a SLD to the LMDB the SLD needs to have a

minimum version.

• SAP NetWeaver 6.40 – System Landscape Directory: not supported

• SAP NetWeaver 7.0 – System Landscape Directory: not supported

• EHP1 for SAP NetWeaver 7.0 – System Landscape Directory: not supported

• EHP2 for SAP NetWeaver 7.0 – System Landscape Directory: SP6, Patch 5

• SAP NetWeaver 7.1 – System Landscape Directory: SP9

• EHP1 for SAP NetWeaver 7.1 – System Landscape Directory: all SPs

• SAP NetWeaver 7.2 – System Landscape Directory: all SPs

• SAP NetWeaver 7.3 – System Landscape Directory: all SPs

If your central SLD is not on one of the required support package levels, you

have to forward the data supplier information from your central SLD to a SLD

which fulfills the requirements. Then connect this SLD to the LMDB. (You can

also use the SLD on your SAP Solution Manager 7.1 system for this

forwarding)

System PreparationPrepare Landscape

In the sub-steps of this step:

you make SAP Solution Manager known to the system landscape

you make sure that all relevant information can be transferred from the system landscape to SAP Solution

Manager 

Before configuring the SLD, you need to consider the SLD Landscape Design: Make sure that all systems are known

to the central (runtime) SLD

Important: Do not use the local SLD in

SAP Solution Manager as runtime SLD

together with SAP NetWeaver PI or Web

Dynpro Java applications in your systemlandscape

System PreparationSet Up LMDB – Details 1

The default input values for the configuration wizard (suitable for most customers) is shown below:

For the synchronization process, you need a

user in the source (by default an SLD) with the

following authorizations:

If the source is an SLD with a release as of 

SAP NetWeaver 7.1, the user needs the role

SAP_SLD_CONTENT_SYNC 

If the source is an SLD with a release SAP

NetWeaver 7.0, update the support package

stack to at least SPS 12. The user needs the

role SAP_SLD_GUEST 

You can select the connection type (Remote or 

Local) and the synchronization direction

(Unidirectional or Bidirectional)

If you set the Notification (Y/N) indicator, the

source will synchronize with the target

whenever there is a content change in the

source. The sources and the target

synchronize faster, but at the expense of higher network load

If the source is an SLD, then the URL is:

http://<SLD hostname>:<SLD port>

System PreparationSet Up LMDB – Details 2

The default input values for the configuration wizard (suitable for most customers) is shown below:

The rank is a positive whole number which determines the ranking within a

synchronization landscape; the higher the number, the higher the ranking.

For an SLD, the standardnamespace is sld/active, which you

should use if you have not created

your own namespaces.

For an LMDB, the standard

namespace is active, which you

should use if you have not created

your own namespaces

The rank you enter here should

be higher than the rank of the

source

In the sixth step of the wizard (Summary ), all settings and entries of the previous

steps will be displayed. Choose the button Finish to add the new synchronization.

In this step you specify how the SAP Netweaver Business Warehouse (BW) is set

up:

You can use the SAP Solution Manager productive client as BW client (recommended)

You can use another client of SAP Solution Manager as BW client, to do that you need to perform an

additional client copy first

You can use the BW in a separate system, in this case you have to make sure that:

 – The level of BI_CONT is always the same as in Solution Manager 

 – The BW works with the “Obsolete Concept with RSR Authorization Objects”

Recommendation: To minimize the

effort to maintain users, select Use

Standard SAP Solution Manager BW environment . This option assumes that

the BW is set up in the client you are

currently logged on to, which is the

SAP Solution Manager productive

client. See SAP note 1487626 for
