PI code and its version Management to external server(other than PI environment)

[Former Member]

Recently we have received a request to keep our ,most recent, working code PI of ESR and ID into some external repository, which seems to me very new. As i never did this, nor received such request in my previous 8-10 projects of SAP PI/PO, hence checking.

1) Is there any option to put/upload PI code of ESR and ID into some external version Management system/servers, like SVN etc. ?

2) I understand, we can put .tpz file extensions to any external folders, but is that the correct way of keeping PI code externally.

Thanks

Pradeep

It is called sever backup...

All PI objects are being persisted to the PI Database...

Just tell those BASIS team to backup the system and stop thinking of Software logistics workarounds.

PI is the repository...

Hi Pradeep,

Only just an idea, with NWDS (under eclipse) you can have locally all your ESR objects (). Later you can use an external system like sourcesafe connected with this eclipse.

Regards.
