For instance, there was no the product system concept in Maintenance Optimizer (MOpz) 7.00/7.01 SP21 and previous SPs. The term sub- system was used to express the inter-dependencies of technical systems; it was no longer adequate in MOpz SP22 and higher SPs — the concept product system clearly disclosed the new stage in SAP system evolution. (On the one hand there is the reality of your SAP system landscape; on the other hand, the landscape that you configure in SAP tools is a kind of map. It’s critical for the map to reflect your real terrain. This post describes how to configure your systems in Solution Manager System Landscape (SMSY) to run Maintenance Optimizer (MOpz), with hps:biogs sap carn 10 108!non-to-conigure- pect syste ochnical-systom-t-rur-maitorance-opbimizer!spot How to configure product system and technical system trun Maintenance Optimizer | SAP Blogs examples. The information and screenshots are based on MOpz SP22 or higher SPs, and ST 400 SPs till to SP26. 1, Identify your technical systems and product systems Technical system means the same as the term SAP system which has been used for long time. It is identified by a 3-character system ID. Your system landscape may contain more than one technical system with the same system ID; but they must be in different databases, so that the system ID and database server uniquely identify a technical system (ABAP, Java or dual stack) in your landscape. In SMSY, a technical system is expressed via technical system entry That the term technical system entry is used in this post is because one technical system may be represented by more than one entry in SMSY. For example, the Process Integration product instance of system PIQ is dual stack (a product instance is the smallest installable entity of a product, and it needs to be installed inside one technical system): hps:biogs sap crn 1/0 108!non-to-conigure- product systom-are-ochnical-systom-to-rur-maitorance-opbmize!senor How to configure product system and technical system to run Maintenance Optimizer | SAP Blogs 8 Th aroduct instars is w doable stack, Gacee (be savieation tat There is a technical system entry PIQ (maximum 8 characters, the first 3 characters are the system ID) to for the ABAP stack: There is a technical system entry PIQ for the Java stack npeblogs sap.cam/2011/01106now-to-conigure-peodut-systom-ar-technical-system-t-run-mainterance-opbnizeHow to conigure product system and technical system torun Maintenance Optimizer | SAP Blogs The server host of the database of the two SMSY entries of one technical system must be the same; otherwise, due to misconfiguration the two entries will be regarded as two tehcnical systems: Aproduct system comprises one or more technical systems which cooperate in business scenarios of one product. The name of the product system is the same as its ABAP technical system entry, if there is one in SMSY. In the PIQ example, product system PIQ comprises only technical system PIQ. The product system connects the business relevant technical systems together. You assign roles (system landscape pattem) to technical systems — you need to identify the relationships according to your reality to determine the roles. You choose product system(s) other than technical system(s) for maintenance in MOpz. With the inter-linkage and landscape pattern data, MOpz gives most precise calculation for your update - MOpz calculates for the constellation of inter-dependent technical systems altogether other than one by one separately. In SMSY, you can navigate to non-ABAP technical system entry from its product system(s) or from the Landscape Components tree node ps:blogs sap crn20110108Ihon-to-conigure- pect systm-are-ochnical-systom-t-run-maitorance-opbmize!saroi7 How to conigure product system and technical system tou Maintenance Optimizer | SAP Blogs Technical System (previously System Component). You can only navigate to the view of an ABAP technical system entry from its product system by clicking on the assigned relevant ABAP product instance. 2. Assign product versions to the product system Correct assignment of product version(s) to the product system is important for update delta calculation Assign the stand-alone product version to the product system. For example, a CRM product system is SAP CRM 7.0/NW 7.01. Assign this CRM product version to it. If you have also installed a CRM EhP, you can assign the CRM EhP product version to this product system too and mark the installed CRM EhP product instance, to reach more precise calculation. There are 2 kinds of EhP product versions: add-on EhP and stand- alone EhP. For example, ERP 6.0 EP 5 is an add-on product version Which requires its stand-alone ERP 6.0. EhP1 of NetWeaver 7.0 is a stand-alone product version, a minor release of NetWeaver after NetWeaver 7.0, which replaces NetWeaver 7.0, rather than being based the same applies to EhP1 of SAP Solution Manager 7.0. Asystem also has a technical product version layer, NetWeaver, Which is also a stand-alone product version. You usually do not need to assign the NetWeaver product version to the product system. Sometimes, one product system may comprise technical systems on different NetWeaver releases. If you intend to run a technical-driven maintenance to update only NetWeaver, assign NetWeaver product version to the product system and select the NetWeaver product version in MOpz step Planning Maintenance. If you installed non-EhP add-ons on this system, you usually do not need to assign add-on product versions in SMSY for MOpz calculation Example of assigned product versions for a product system: ps:blogs sap crn20110108Ihon-to-conigure- pect systm-are-ochnical-systom-t-run-maitorance-opbmize!senor How to conigure product system and technical system torun Maintenance Optimizer | SAP Blogs Select stand-alone product version in MOpz, either normal stand- alone one such as SAP ERP 6.0 or stand-alone EhP such as NW 7.01 or SolMan 7.01 3. Examples: run maintenance transaction and update the system configuration Here are 3 examples of system maintenance: 41.
