SAP Maintenance Optimizer without saprouter

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

Is it possible to approve patches without connection to SAP via saprouter?

We have a strong security policies and we have not a possibility to use saprouter for connection to SAP. We installed and customized Solution Manager 4.0 and we want only approve our basket on SAP Market Place. Is it possible or not?

Best regards,

Alexander Nikolaew.

Hi, all

in FAQ about MOPZ I red about secure RFC connection. What does it meen?

link: https://websmp102.sap-ag.de/mopz (FAQ about Maintenance Optimizer):

27. How can customers with strong security policies use Maintenance Optimizer?

To work with Maintenance Optimizer, it needs to be connected via secure RFC connection to SAP. Without this, it is impossible to use Maintenance Optimizer as collaboration platform. However, there are customers with high security requirements. Their procedure can be as follows:

1. Customer logs on to SAP Service Marketplace from a PC. This may be done in an environment even without connection to SAP Solution Manager.

2. Customer adds all required files to the download basket.

3. Customer then changes to a PC with connection to SAP Solution Manager and confirms the download of the data. For more information about secure RFC connection please refer to IMG in SAP Solution Manager.

4. The files are available for download and can be downloaded from the PC with a connection to the SAP Service Marketplace.

Best regards,

Alexander Nikolaev.

No.

No. You will need to open OSS calls each time you want a confirmation.

You know that in case of a problem with a production instance SAP is not able to help you accordingly if you don´t have a saprouter (and remote connections).
