How to find the correct nwdi track

[Former Member]

Hi,

   I want to modify one dc application used in portal 7.4.

From the iview in portal i have got the application name.

Now when i login to nwdi, I can see lots of tracks running.

How to find out which is relevent track for this application iview inorder to create a project on that DC ?

Regards,

Alex

check the namespace attribute of the iview,  that will tell u the dc name, something like, abc.com/x~y~z

go to your dev server (usually where you find the iview) http://host:port/nwa/sysinfo ---->components info -->table in lower part(Development components)

select "All development components" in the dropdown.

you can put x~y~z in the name column to filter.  the location column tells you the track information

Hi,

Try this:

go to the CBS webui:

http://<host>:<port>/webdynpro/dispatcher/sap.com/tc.CBS.WebUI/WebUI

--> click on "Development Components" in the icon/link row (last one right after "Compartments")

Here you can enter the DC name and then you can see in which buildspaces they are present so you know in which track they were used.

Hi Ervin/Hemendra,

   Thanks for the reply.

I have got the Application Name and Name space details from iview.

I dont have the DC name with me to search.

How to findout the DC name for this app so that i can do a search ?

Hi,

can you look up your webdynpro application (I assume it is webdynpro) in a standalone way?

You can do this here:

http://<host>:<port>/webdynpro/resources/sap.com/tc~wd~tools~admin/Explorer

--> here you can browse wd java applications running on that server and list their DCs.

By the way, if you manage to run this application in a standalone way (there is also a "Run" button in the WD Content Admin if you focus on the Application node) then a WD Java app always looks this way:

http://<host>:<port>/webdynpro/resources/<vendor>/<DCName>/<Application name>

I am sure there is another way to find out this from portal point of view (in the Portal Content Directory) but unfortunately my portal expertise is limited.

I hope this helps.

Cheers,

Ervin

Hi Alex,

Could you please confirm that DC is the part of Portal or any external application is called by iView. Could you please mention the DC name if it is SAP Standard (not bespoke one).

These details will help us to reach at some point.

Thanks,

Hi Alex,

This is customer specific, how NWDI track has been defined. But you can search it my DC name.

Hi Alex,

You can try the below options

1.As mentioned by Ervin go to CBS and click on DC and an attached screen will be displayed. Enter you DC name and search.

2. Go to Development Configuration Perspective and I am sure the person who configured these will have used some usefull name so first search a track and then DC.

Thanks,

Hamendra
