One transport directory - multiple domains?

Hi Experts,

We want to have one single transport directory for all our system landscapes (ERP, BW, PI etc)

Would it be advisable to place all systems in one transport domain (e.g. DOMAIN_ALL), or have separate domains (e.g. DOMAIN_ERP, DOMAIN_BW etc)?

Thanks in advance,

Samuli

Dear Samuli,

All systems that create the same transport group in the TMS must use the same transport directory while systems from different transport groups must use different transport directories.
The main advantage of a central transport host is that when a transport directory is moved to another computer, not the parameters of each system but only the central entry has to be maintained.
The host name of the central transport host is reported to the domain name server.

However, it would advisable to maintain different transport groups for different landscapes. It would make maintenance easier.
