Import transport request for SAP synchronization (SAP Solution Manager 7.1)

If you use SAP® Solution Manager 7.2, transport requests are no longer required.

To ensure that SAP® synchronization between ARIS and SAP® Solution Manager 7.1 is available, your administrator must import the current transport request into the SAP® system.

You find the transport request on the installation media (.../Add-ons/ARIS_Architect_extension_pack_SAP/ABAP/Solution Manager/). The function modules are created in the /IDS/ARIS_SOLAR package in the /IDS/ARIS_SOLAR_001 function group.

Procedure

  1. Copy the file K<number>.<SAP system SID> from the installation media to the directory \sapmnt\trans\cofiles.
  2. Copy the file R<number>.<SAP system SID> from the installation media to the directory \sapmnt\trans\data. The sapmnt directory usually corresponds to the directory \usr\sap. If you cannot find the cofiles and data directories under the specified paths, you can determine the correct path using the DIR_TRANS variable. To do this, log on to the relevant SAP® Solution Manager system and execute transaction AL11.

    To transfer the transport request to the SAP system using the command line program TP.EXE, enter the following commands in the specified sequence:

    1. TP addtobuffer <SAP system SID>K<number> [target system SID]
    2. TP import <SAP system SID>K<number> [client on target system]

You can also execute the transport request using the transaction STMS.

Procedure

  1. Log on to the relevant SAP® Solution Manager system as system administrator.
  2. Execute transaction STMS. This takes you to the Transport Management System.
  3. Click Import overview (F5).
  4. Double-click the relevant SAP® Solution Manager system. This takes you to the import queue.
  5. In the menu, select Extras > Other requests > Add. The Add transport request to import queue dialog opens.
  6. Enter <SAP system SID>K<number> and confirm. You return to the import overview.
  7. Select the transport request.
  8. In the menu, select Request > Import. The Import request dialog opens.
  9. Activate the Options tab and check Ignore invalid component version.
