BW 3.5 System Basis Post-Install and initial configuration steps

The intention of this guide is to provide a general guideline usable on BW 2.x through 3.5 systems toset basic transactional and basis settings for standard performance. Many default system settings are

not optimal, or are not landscape specific for a customer. This list provides generic, grouped settings

for better over all performance, or a baseline for when certain activities will be used later in animplementation. (i.e. workflow or info broadcasting)

There are three supplemental documents referred to these are not needed but nice to do:How-To REALLY install BW 3x Statistics

Initiating Workflow/Webflow settings

Connecting a BW system to EP6.0

All recommendations are consolidated from appropriate SAP tuning notes and conference

presentations, as well as actual EarlyWatch and Go-Live check reports.

Pre-upgrade or copy functional steps

Before backing up a system for copy or upgrading it or applying a PI patch, to preserve dataintegrity, the following steps must be followed by the functional team:

RSA7 delta queues must be cleared run delta process chains

Send all data to final data targetActivate all ODS requests

Promote all requests to downstream data targets (data marts)

Roll up aggregatesRun hierarchy change run

Suspend all process chains and background jobs

Basis steps after this:

Run Temp Tablespace cleanup report SE38 SAP_DROP_TMPTABLESRebuild Indexes SE38 SAP_INFOCUBE_INDEXES_REPAIR

Fix InfoObject inconsistencies RSD1 repair InfoObjects

Disable RFCs (//dummy hostnames) prevents accidental data transfers

Validate proper logical systems and RFC connections to other source systems

Reconnection to source systemsRSA1-source test, restore or replicate connections, re-import global settings and exchange rates

Restart (activate/schedule) process chains

Under BC activate BSP and any graphics, mime, printing or other services.

Get hardware key from SLICENSE and apply for permanent license:



25/91



26/91

The new license takes effect on system restart.

Get and apply java license key too

Check, adjust and add work processes -

Apply kernel patch, SPAM, BASIS, ABA, BW35 and BICONT patches. SR1 starts you at SP9, BW

sp10 causes an upgrade to PI-Basis 2005.1

Use Saint to add ST-PI and ST-A/PI

Initialize SDCCN



27/91

To run the RTCCTOOL report youll need to configure OSS1 transaction/RFC.

You are now ready for the client copy:

SCC4 to create add all landscape logical systems in BD54 when asked

Log into new clientSCCL copy client using SAP_ALL and client 000 users

When complete, set system time in STZACRun SGEN for post-install and bsps

Set login client: RZ10

Activate BEx personalization RS_PERS_ACTIVATE



46/91

Set default traffic light color when no data is available in source system (default is yellow)

(RSMONCOLOR)



47/91

Create a flatfile source system, SAP_DEMO (flatfile), and connect to the R3 client



48/91



49/91

Now that you have a connection, transfer exchange rates and global settings.

If you have more than one connection, transfer again from the master system, then update from all

others, then update again from the masterusually this is the primary R3/ECC system. These areclient independent, so only transfer per system, even if you have multiple client sources. This is a

one time activity some installations may bring currency exchange rate values over as master data.



50/91

Do mapping of all logical system names, and suggest source system IDs RSA1-Tools-



51/91

Suggest and save



52/91

Then do mappingsthe target source systems change to all test or all production if in those

environments



53/91

In the transport connection, create a default BEx development bucket transport and set Object

Changeability settings as they would be in production (they no effect on development)



54/91

Typical sample each of these object sets are a business decision since it affects what power users

can and cannot do in the system.

Object Changeability:

AGGR Aggregate Changeable OriginalANMO Mining Model Everything Changeable

ANPR Analysis Process Everything Changeable

ANSO Model Source Not ChangeableAQQU InfoSet Query Not Changeable

Routine maintenance checks:

RSD1 Repair InfoObjects - check post-patch and after major transports or content activation.Execute repair until you see this green light



57/91

RSA7 delta queue basis team reviews for delta entries, functional team clears queues before PIpatch or upgrade by running delta loads.

SE38-SAP_INFOCUBE_INDEXES_REPAIR schedule weekly!



58/91



59/91


60/91

DB13 set database checks Check DB consistency once per week (Sunday 10a) (CBO/Table

statistics update)



61/91

And start the normal basis jobs via SSAA:



62/91

System connection parameters:SBIW-General-Data Load parameters (ROIDOCPRMS Table) set for all landscape LS



63/91

You may have to define new LS in BD54. Set new defaults to 20000kb, (lines-100,000 by default),

Info IDOC freq=10 15 or 20 per data packet, 3 (background) processes, no target system to run on(yet) and 3 max dialogparallel processing depends on available dialog and background processes

in the target system ideally at least 15 so 3 means you can run up to 5 extract jobs in parallel

there is a targets and PSA in parallel setting in InfoPackages that may also affect thisproper extractschedule planning prevents issues.

Final copy or transport this to all landscape systems



64/91

RSCUSTV6 (flatfile) defaults are bad. Set to 10, 20000 (20MB) and 1,000,000 for PSA partition



65/91

RSCUSTA2 (ODS/internal system activations and load settings)



66/91

RSCUSTV18 (DB Connect) 10000 is good for records, package size 20000 or 30000 is ok



67/91

RSRCACHE/RSCUSTV14 cache parameters show ST03, RSRT

Set cache parameters to cluster table for now

Set initial default menu SSM2 to RS00



68/91

Test SM65



69/91

Online Help SR13 set for SAP help online at help.sap.com always is current version!



70/91

OSS1 for SDCC



71/91

TREX SRMO and RSODADMIN

Install TREX per manual note the service name exactly it is case sensitive. If on the local server

use the instances gateway If not, install the SAP gateway service.

Create RFC in SM59 per guide

SRMO create SSR



72/91



73/91



74/91

RSODADMIN walk through this screen top to bottom to schedule the jobs and index current

content leave as below:



75/91



76/91

IGS setup and test: IGS installs with the java stack

SM59 Edit generated RFCs for IGS delivered:



77/91

Corrected for your IGS destination (as seen in IGS.XML file on server) fill in SID to program ID

and the abap stack gateway information:

Test RFC:



78/91

Then test the IGS with SE38 BW_IGS_ADMIN, and BW_IGS_CHART_TEST



79/91

If you see this on chart test, it works!

HINT: you can access this directly on web via admin port, in this case 40080 as seen in igs.xml file

http://sapbidev:40080

http://sapbidev:40080/http://sapbidev:40080/


80/91

This direct connection tells you the installed IGS version, which you dont get from within the

system. This is default NW2004 SR1 version:



81/91

BW STATS

See How-to REALLY Activate BW Statistics document activate Technical DataSources,contentthen RSA1-Tools BW Statistics for InfoProviders - select all, save without transport



82/91

Select trashcan from here and delete all old stats from RSDDSTAT tables to datetheres junk in

there. Schedule this job variant periodically later.

- hit trashcan to delete

This runs a step RSDDK_STA_DEL_DATA



83/91

Activate and assign Administrators to the SAP_BW_TCONT role for workbook access in PFCG or

SU01 then select this menu with the other menu button as below, and save workbook to favorites.



84/91

Set default web protocol RSCUSTV15



85/91

RSCUSTV21 default templates if different from delivered 0ADHOC and 0ANALYZER (nothing

to set now)

RSCUSTV11 set branded default BEx style sheet (later)

Integrate with portal EP60 from SPROsee Connecting a BW system to EP6.0 guide.

Settings are in RSPOR_SETUP report. This screen is from SPRO - IMG



86/91


87/91



88/91

Email SCOT / SMTP



89/91

Turn stuff on and connect to send internet mail by editing SMTP node



90/91

Assuming you have installed the BI pre-calculation service, you can run the RSPRECADMIN tool

to configure it from a GUI on the box you installed the service:

Create service shows this box to fill in:

Maintenance SE38 Report RSRD_BOOKMARK_REORGANIZATION

The BI precalc service requires that you have MS Excel installed on the server or PC running it.



91/91

The last step is to fine tune your instance profiles and database parameters per SAP performancenotesstarting with those recommended in the Installation or upgrade manual. This is a list I used

mid-2005 for BW 3.5:

NOTES: R3 425207, 103747 (v57 11/30/05), 88416 (v14 6/7/04), 404546 (Performance), 101717
