Livecache development - need livecache in client

[Former Member]

We generally have a separate client at our shop for development. In this client, we only develop and testing occurs in another client.

Due to resources, we would prefer not to have livecache in our dev client. Is it possible to compile (activate) without livecache present?

Thanks,

George

Hello George,

-> Please provide more information concerning your question:

• What is the version of your system?

What is the current version of the liveCache you are using?

• Do you have the liveCache relevant clients on your system?

• Please give more light on your project & Architecture overview of your systems.

-> For example, in SCM system you could create the client which is not

liveCache relevant. Please review the information in the SAP note

629660 SCM systems with clients that are not liveCache-relevant

-> Please review the information/documents at service.sap.com/scm -> SAP SCM Technology

Please pay attention that you need the liveCache server, if you are planning to run the

APO functionality in the client on the SCM system.

If you would like APO and EM on Separate Systems, for example,

see the document "Architecture overview" , p.8. Also the pp 10, 11 … 15,16,17,18

of this document are helpful to overview.

Thank you and best regards, Natalia Khlopina

Thanks for the note and the links. I am new to SCM as well as the livecache technology. I have read up on the marketing comm stuff. But I am still not 100% clear on how livecache objects are referenced or utilized at compile time.

We are using SCM 5.1...

For our Sandbox we have the following clients:

800 - Config Only

300 - Testing (master and transaction data) - Livecache installed here.

200 - Development only. - No livecache here.

We will test livecache in 300. Would we run into potential issues when compiling programs in 200?

Thanks in advance...

1)

If you are asking about the ABAP programs development, then the ABAP coding 'objects' are

saved in the SCM database. You could run the ABAP development/compilation in the liveCache

NON relevant client.

2)

If you need to test the SCM applications like APO, then you need the liveCache client.

See the documentation at service.sap.com/liveCache

Thanks for confirming Natalia

Hi George,

if you don't use any liveCache-functionality - yep, shouldn't be a problem.

But as soon as you are using any liveCache-functions you will need one.
