Difference between maintaining SLD locally and at SOLMON

[Former Member]

Hello All,

Few doubts relating to SLD maintaining locally and maintaining at SOLMON

1>What are advantages maintaining SLD locally when compared to maintaining at SOLMON ?

2>What are disadvantages when maintaining SLD locally, when compared to maintaining at SOLMON ?

3>As we know that SLD indicates a repository (it is a repository which consists of information and maintains whole systems info (components,packages, ...etc )) , even the same things can be maintained at SOLMON system also .Then what is the use of maintaining SLD separately ?

4>What are its main advantages ?

Can anyone kindly help me out by providing answers for this ?

Best Regards

HI

While maintaing the SLD in Solution Manager we can have a single sign on(SSO) to all the servers which are present.

it saves lot of time and also increses the Perfromance.

SAP is recommending Solution Manager for all end-to-end operations which includes the SLD.

Solution Manager is nothing but a project tracking tool , where we put all the documentation. Its just like an E-Room

cheers
