Purpose
This configuration guide has been compiled to know how connect the Satellite system to SAP
Solution Manager.

Solution Manager – Scenario Description
You have installed and configured the SAP Solution Manager but not yet plugged the Satellites
Systems..
To plug the Satellite, you need to complete a number of steps. You begin by activating the SLD in
SAP Solution Manager. Next, you configure and connect the satellite. In the third and final step, you
activate the SMD functions to use EWA – Non Abap Functionality.

Satellite
Check the DNS Name resolution between the Satellite system and solution manager. Try to ping to
the hostname and to the FQDN.
Check the required service package are in the satellite systems (Menu: System Status):

Service package and Support Package
Check if the required service packages are in the satellite systems (menu: System -> Status):

• get data for Solution Monitoring in
the satellite systems using the RFC
back connection from the satellite
ST-PI Version 2005_1_<release> and system to the Solution Manager.
higher: • put PFCG roles from the satellite
systems into project structures
(from Add-On ST-PI Version
2005_1_<release>SP03)
SAP note 539977 contains the release
strategy for ST-PI

• ST-A/PI is required in the satellite to
be able to deliver support services.
ST-A/PI: • See SAP note 560630 if your
satellite systems do not satisfy the
requirements
The ST-A/PI is in SAP note 69455.

ST-SER 700_2005_2 • relevant for service delivery
with SAP_BASIS from WebAS 7.00 SP05

SLD Configuration
There is 2 way to plug the Satellite to the SLD.
If you are using SLD in Local (XI, Jco Destination, Portal, Etc) You need to Replicate/Synchronize
the SLD Information between the SLD of the Satellite system to the SLD of Solution Manager.
If you don’t use the SLD in Local, you can plug the Satellite direct to the SLD of Solution Manager.
IN THIS PAPER WE USE DIRECT CONNECTION BETTWENT THE SATELLITE TO THE SOLMAN
SLD.

Satellite Task (Abap):
RZ70



Put the host and Service of Solution Manager ( If is not possible change because you use the SLD in
Local speak with the System Administrator for SLD Data Replication).

Satellite Task (Java):
VisualAdmin Server0 Services SLD Data Supplier Runtime
HTTP Setting Tab: Put the right information and then click in the Transfer Button.

CIM Client Generation Settings Tab: Put the right information and then click in CIMClient Test to
check the configuration

Satellite Task (Other):
You can use SLD to upload external sap products too, You can use to publish TREX servers, MDM,
Mobile or any kind of systems..
You need to Install 2 commands, “sldreg”: Used to create the Registration file to connect to the SLD
and the SapOsCol used to read all the technical information, you can found this files in the Kernel
SP.
cd /<Kernel Directory> or SYS directory.
sldreg -configure slddest.cfg –usekeyfile.
Complete:
Username/Password



SLD Host/Port/HTTPS

This procedure generate the slddest.cfg file with the connection information.

Check the SapOsCol
run saposcol –b.
You can check the Hardware Information in XML format.

Then you run the saposcol –b | sldreg -connectfile slddest.cfg -stdin -oldtransferdtd.
The system show
HTTP response: Success.
HTTP status code: 200



End SLD Registration
Data send status: true

Check the Systems in SLD
In the http://hostname:50000/SLD of solution Manager Check in Technical system if you see the
information of the recent adds system (Check if the Last Update is correct).



Solution Manager:
We are using LongSID, This mean that we identify the satellite system with the normal SID and
adding a Suffix.
We need to create the System Manually and then synchronize with the SLD. If you use Normal SID
you don’t need to create the system manually.

Create the System
Create DB
In the Txcode: SMSY
Is important put the first 3 letter from the DB and the hostname, with this field Solution Manager
map the LongSID with the SID.

Create The Sap System
Is important put the first 3 letter from the sap system and the Installation Number, with this field
Solution Manager map the LongSID with the SID.

Create the Java System
Is important put the first 3 letter from the sap system, the hostname and the Installation Number,
with this field Solution Manager map the LongSID with the SID.

Match the Smsy-SLD
In this step the Solution Manager read the SLD Information and match the Information with the
Satellite system defined in the SMSY.
Run SMSY_SETUP in “Test mode” Immediate

Wait until the process “LANDSCAPE FETCH” ends in SM37



Check in SMSY if the System was assigned in the right way. You can check if the Data Source is SLD,
this mind that the Solution manager maps the LongSID with the SID.

Assign the Right Components
In this sample we are connecting a BI, This product is SAP Netweaver 2004S Business
Intelligence

MAP Component Abap/Java
In this sample we create the System DI3_042,(Java Stack of NW2004s BI)

We select the BI Java like relevant component and the system component DI3_042 (Java
Component)

Assign the Installation Number
Check if the installation number is correct in all the Sap System. This is important because if you
don’t have the Installation Number the system cannot send the Information to SMD.



RFC Connection
The RFC Allow to the Satellite to make and read the Satellite Information from the Solution
Manager.
You can use the Wizard to create the RFC in Automatic.
Prerequisite:
Admin user in the Solution Manager
Admin User in the Satellite System.
S_RFC and S_RFCACL Authorization Object in the Satellite System.
.

To generate the RFC Connection we need to Select the Sap System Main Instance Client row:
click in the Generate Button.

Read Destination

Rfc create the RFC Destination from Solution Manager to the Satellite named:
SM_<SID>CLNT<NRO>_READ
User Create the User SOLMANP1M100 in the Satellite with authorization only for
read.
Used This RFC is used for read system tables and statistics
for:

TMW Destination

Rfc Create the RFC Destination in Solution Manager SM_<SID>CLNT<NRO>_TMW
User Create the User SOLTMWP1M100 in the Satellite with the authorization to
create and release transport.
Used This RFC is used with the Change Management Functionality
for:

Trusted Destination

Rfc Create the RFC Destination in Solution manager
SM_<SID>CLNT<NRO>_TRUSTED



User: Use the “Current User” Authorization with Trusted authorization, (In the
Satellite you need to have the profile S_RFC,S_RFC_ACL)
User This RFC Is used with different scenarios.
for:

Back Destination

Rfc Create the RFC Destination in Satellite pointing to Solution Manager,
SM_<SolMan SID>CLNT<NRO>_BACK
User: Create the User SOLMANDI2042 in Solution Manager with SDCCN Authorization.
User This RFC is Used in the SDCCN Functionality, this allow the satellite system to
for: send EWA to Solution Manager.

Load Balance and Monitoring
This Allow to use Load Balancing in the RFC Destinations and Select the RFC For Monitoring

Create the Logical Component
The Logical Component is used by Solution Manager to map the “Functionality of the System –
Development-Productive-Quality-Sandbox” to the Landscape of the solution. You need to create 1
Logical component for every Main Instance in your Solution,
Go to SMSY the menu --> Other Object…

Select Logical component and button Create
