Hi

CMS is generally used to transport Java

development objects. The XI Integration Server uses CMS to transport Integration Server

content. When the Integration Server uses CMS to transport XI Content, no Component

Build Service (CBS) or Design Time Repository (DTR) is used and can therefore be

switched off. If you want to transport Integration Server content and Java developments

(Java proxies or adapter modules), the CBS and DTR must be running.

If you transport Java developments, you should keep in mind that deployment of Java

code can destabilize the runtime environment. Therefore, it is beneficial to install CMS on

a separate server, as described in SAP Note 737368 for NWDI.

Go through these links you will find all the details :

Hi Seshgiri,

Basically its related to transport system in XI. Here we can move the objects using 2 methods one is using normal file system and the other is CMS which should be configured in the system.

We use CMS to transport XI Objects from one system to the other[DEV->QAS->PRD] which is the correct option to move the objects between the system.

Thanks

HI

CMS:

Change Management Service (CMS) is part of SAP NetWeaver Development Infrastructure (NWDI). This service enables you to configure your transport landscape and manage the transport of objects between different systems.

CMS --> Its runs on J2EE engine.

Hi,

Change Management Service (CMS) is the java counter part of R/3’ transport mechanism. CMS architecture is comparable to the classical R/3 transport in many ways. SAP maintains the same terminologies like Domain, Track, etc in CMS also. The architecture is also similar and is maintained by a dedicated CMS controller system.

CMS/Transport is important in an enterprise landscape because of the fact that the environment will be multi-layered, like for example, Development (DEV), Quality Assurance (QA) and Production (PROD). The most common pattern for the system landscape will be DEV-QA-PROD, though in some cases systems like Integration environment, Staging, etc will be present. Whichever the chosen pattern is, no rational enterprise will allow development activities and production code in the same system. So a defined mechanism for transferring the objects is required. In SAP R/3, transport facilitates this process.

But in SAP Exchange Infrastructure (XI) the components which are dealt with are java components and their transport and deployment is not done using the classical SAP transport mechanism.

There are 2 possible options to doing the transport of the components; using File System and using CMS
