Issue to import .tpz file on PI 7.0, any help?

[former_member233212]

I am working on PI implementation on PI 7.0. I'm placing the .tpz file in the server path usr/sap/dev/sys/global/xi/repository_server/import but still I'm not getting that in import option to upload the file.

The .tpz file is created using PI 7.1. Is it not compatible to use with PI 7.0?

Or am I doing something wrong in placing file?

Hi Vidhya,

There are two options:

1) Upload from the PI Server (this option is available in all PI releases). If you choose this option the *tpz file must be placed in this directory:

usr\sap\<SID>\SYS\global\xi\repository\repository_server\import

2) Upload from your Client. This option is only available from release 7.1x. Simply place the *tpz file in any directory on your local machine.

If I get the problem right you used the first option and when you tried the import you didn't see the file right?

The user which executes the import must have either SAP_XI_ADMINISTRATOR or SAP_XI_CONTENT_ORGANIZER roles assigned to it. Can you check this?

Regards,

Mate

PS: it's possible to import content to 7.1 if it was created on 7.0

The .tpz file was exported from PI 7.1 and I was trying to import in PI 7.0 which is not possible. This table was helpful to understand this.
