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.
RFC READ RFC TMW RFC TRUSTED

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): ST-PI Version 2005_1_<release> and higher: get data for Solution Monitoring in the satellite systems using the RFC back connection from the satellite system to the Solution Manager. 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: ST-A/PI is required in the satellite to be able to deliver support services. 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 with SAP_BASIS from WebAS 7.00 SP05 relevant for service delivery
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 dont 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
Page 7 of 40
Sap Solution Manager Working with the Landscape 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
Page 8 of 40
Sap Solution Manager Working with the Landscape 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
Page 9 of 40
Sap Solution Manager Working with the Landscape 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).
Page 10 of 40
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 dont 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
Page 11 of 40
Sap Solution Manager Working with the Landscape 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 Intelligence Business
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 dont have the Installation Number the system cannot send the Information to SMD.
