Where do I change Vendor Name of a DC?

[Former Member]

I have named the Vendor Name of my DC wrongly (I used the default "sap.com").

How do I change the Vendor Name property after I reimport to my local DCs workplace in my NWDS?

Thanks.

Hi Kent,

You can change the Vendor Name of DC.Try checking the properties of DC by right clicking on it.

Hi, Gopi.

I refer to DC Command Line Tool help menu (link you provided in the reply),

I run the following command : RENAMEDC

Here is the systax:

renamedc -s <compartment> -n <DC name> -v <DC vendor>

--targetname <new name of DC>]

--targetvendor <new vendor of DC>]

[--actname <name of activity that contains the changes>]

[--actdesc <description of activity that contains the changes>]

Info of my DC:

Local Development dtc path: C:\Documents and Settings\j2eadm\.dtc

Name of the DC = claim

Name of the vendor = sap.com

I want to change the name of the vendor to : xxx.com

so here is the command:

rename C:\Documents and Settings\j2eadm\.dtc -n claim -v sap.com --targetname claim --targetvendor xxx.com

But I got the following error:

No valid development configuration object available.

Can anyone point to me what mistake I have made?

Thanks.

Jhansi,

I don't see how I can edit the "Vendor Name" property from Right Click --> Properties.

Hi Kent,

I mean to say, expand ur DC, select DC Metadata(Right Click)-> Properties.

Jhansi,

I navigated to the DC Metadata beofre. The properties there are not editable (read-only)?

Any idea how to make it editable?

Hi Kent

Probably file .dcdef is read only in your DC and you can not edit the properties. Make the file writable.

I open the file with Text Editor, and see some vendor tag with the value of "sap.com"

.But I am not sure if I change all "sap.com" to "xxx.com", and move the folder from sap.com to new created folder "xxx.com" will solve the problem without breaking something.

Or I should use the DC Tool --> renamedc command to do so.

Please advise.

Hi Kent,

did you use loadconfig command before the renamedc commad?

in your case something like

loadconfig -u j2eadm -r "C:\Documents and Settings\j2eadm\.dtc\LocalDevelopment"

-c "C:\Documents and Settings\j2eadm\.dtr" -p password

Remark: if I skip the -p parametr I got Java exception
