I had a development system and a quality system earlier. while creating transport path we had created 3 system transport path with one development, one quality and a virtual production system. Now we have installed our production system and have added that in the current transport route also. But how do i delete virtual system. Also all the transport has been done between development and Quality system. But i cant see those requests in the newly included production system. How do i make those requests appear in the production system.
Delete the Virtual system from the Domain controller and add your production to your existing domain. Then you should also configure the transport route for the production system the same way you did with the virtual system.
i am nt able to delete d virtual system. although i hav removed it and added the prod system and have activated it also.. still i m nt able to see the transport requests in d prod system in its import queue.
From where are you trying to delete the system? It should be from domain controller and 000 client. Again from 000 client in Production the system should be added into the domain
i have added the Prod system successfully. and its active also. However i am still worried about deleting that virtual system.
As of now there are no transport requests in the queue in production system. will after deleting the virtual system the transport request wd come in prod system or wd i have to do extra settings for the same? Earlier the route qas DEV-> QA-> virtual system . Transport from DEV to QA has already happened. Now the current route is DEV-> QA-> Prod. and the virtual system is just idle without being included in the routes.
Have you configured route for Production system? If Yes then the transport requests should appear in the Production queue. If its not then check your transport directory in production system.
Have you configured as three system landscape? Is that local transport directory or global? If global then production having enough authorization for transport directory? Which is the domain controller?
Give more information like error message any? Check log files. Without information its hard to provide solution by guess
From Production in transaction STMS_IMPORT refresh to see if you are getting the transport requests. If not then check the queue in the menu. You can also check the log files from Goto option
Any issues in the transport directory, tool will be reported in the check from queue
In the following explanation I'll call your production system PRO and the virtual system VIR.
You initially configured VIR as a delivery system behind your QAS, i.e. in the place eventually to be taken by the produsction system. All requests imported into QAS therefore were automatically appended to the VIR bffer. This is basic TMS stuff.
You have now introduced PRO into the domain and made it delivery system instead of VIR. I understand that VIR still exists in your domain but it no longer has a route to it.
When you added PRO, the requests in the VIR buffer were not automatically transferred to the PRO buffer. This is perfectly normal; you have to do this manually. If you have access to the server that holds the transport directory, then there is an extremely simple solution:
- go to the directory /usr/sap/trans/buffer (on Windows: folder <transport_host>\sapmnt\trans\buffer)
- make a backup copy of the file called "VIR"
- rename VIR to PRO, overwriting the original PRO file
- in STMS open the PRO buffer and click on Refresh; the requests will now appear
If you do not have access to the server:
- open the VIR buffer
- use Edit -> Select Block to select all requests in the buffer
- choose Request -> Forward -> System
Note: the correct procedure would have been to call your virtual system PRO from the beginning. When you then accepted the actual PRO into the TMS domain, the virtual system would have been replaced automatically with the real system.
I did what you said. Renamed the virtual in the usr/sap/trans/buffer directory to prod. but still transport queue is not appearing even after refreshing. Just when i was transporting from DEV-> QA i got an error as RFC function fails. Although i was able to transport it to QA. while doing connection test from all the 3 systems i found out that RFC call from QA to prod and vice versa fails. it says unknown Hostname. but there is no change option via which i can change the hostname in SM59. its not that the hostname is wrong or anything i wanted to try putting IP address and check it. Any idea.
I would suggest you to delete all the systems like production, virtual and quality system from domain controller that is development system. Before that delete all the transport routes. Then after that you add only quality and production system and then create the tranport routes accordingly between all the three system and then distribute and ativate the changes. You do this in 000 client of domain controller.
Also, if that does not work then delete the complete TMS including the domain controller and re-configure it again freshly.
