Hi

Hi Experts,

> I have some queries regarding Solution Manager.

> 1) What are the steps for implementing Solution Manager

first after installing solman you need to start transaction solman_setup and do the post installation activities as per the guide provided by the links already mentioned by others

> 2) Is this the work of a BASIS Consultant

If you are talking about post installation/installation yes

but if you are talking about scenario configuration or functionality implementation it depends

E.g CHARMS - combination of basis and solman functional

system monitoring - complete basis

so it depends the requirement at your site.....ask the solman functional to do the do the requirement gathering and then you can decide to implement the relevant one's

> 3) Can any one please provide suitable documents

There are plenty of documents available so search SDN and SMP.some links

Hi Experts,

Thanx for your valuable suggestions. We are using ECC6. Which version of Solution manager we can implement? 7.0 EhP1 or 7.1?

We want to upgrade to EHP4 in future.

Hi Sibin,

ECC 6.0 and the Solution Manager are two separe products/installations.

There exist no add-ons to be installed. You can not install Solman on ECC 6.0.You install solman on NW.

Thanks

Hi Vikram,

How to check whether solutionmanager is already installed in a system?

I tried transaction code solman_setup but it is showing transaction does not exist.

We have imlemented SAP a few years back in our organization.

Hi Sibinraj,

Goto menu on top:

System --> Status --> a new pop window will open --> on right hand side you will see a Magnifying glass image click on that

There you will see Software Component : ST 400 0028 SAPKITL438 SAP Solution Manager Tool

You will see something like this.

Thanks

Hi Vikram,

I got all documents regarding Solution Manager and we are in a process of installing it.After completing the installation I have to do configuration using solman_setup right? After this process I can view solution manager tab setting in IMG. After reaching this step, what are the sttings I need to do it in system? Can you throw some light on these questions? If possible can you send me some documents regarding IMG configuration?

Hi, Sibin.

For Application Incident Management (including necessary configuration in solman_setup) take a look at this guide: https://websmp201.sap-ag.de/~sapidb/011000358700000514762011E.PDF

Hi Sibin,

Solman_setup is very important to run. If you will go in SPRO --> IMG activities everything is there.

Also check configuration guide under:

http://service.sap.com/instguides -> SAP Components -> SAP Solution Manager ->select your release and you will find conig guide.

Thanks
