2836143 - How to register Managed System

to LMDB directly in SAP Solution Manager
Component: SV-SMG-LDB (Landscape Management Database (LMDB)), Version: 14, Released On:
06.10.2022

Symptom
As of SAP Solution Manager 7.20 SP06, you can also use Data Supplier Processing, where the managed
systems send data directly to the LMDB and not via the SLD. You configure managed system according to
SAP Note 2183995 (/sap/support/notes/2183995), but still need to know more details about the steps.

Environment
SAP Solution Manager 7.2 SP06 and higher

Resolution
Prerequisites:

LMDB is set up successfully in transaction SOLMAN_SETUP -> Infrastructure Preparation.

Find the guide in http://help.sap.com/solutionmanager (http://help.sap.com/solutionmanager). Choose
Secure Configuration Security Guide, and go to section Users and Roles Relevant for Configuration ->
Technical User for SLD and LMDB -> Technical User LMDB_DS_XXX. You need to create this user to
set up an http(s) connection later.
Follow steps below and find the right host and port of LMDB location.

1. transaction SICF -> Execute -> click External Aliases.

2. Expand default_host and verify if /lmdb/ds and /sld/ds can be found as shown below,

https://userapps.support.sap.com/sap/support/sfm/notes/print/0002836143?language=E&token=DD75AF35071EDA643548F4E6A2960150 2/8

3. Right mouse on both nodes and click 'Test Ext. Alias'. A new page is opened in IE and the
following text should be seen there.

4. Note down the host and port of this page for registration steps later.

I. For ABAP type of managed systems, follow steps in Note 2188401 (/sap/support/notes/2188401) to setup
HTTP destination in RZ70 in which the SAP Solution Manager ABAP host and port are found in the previous
step should be used, user LMDB_DS_XXX is used in the http destination here.

II. For Java type of managed systems, please change the URL of destination 'SLD_DataSupplier' to
http://<solutionmanagerABAPhost>:<solutionmanagerABAPport>/sld/ds (://:0?
SESSION_TOKEN=InNzdLoFxzJzDmPD4tKySA==), where the host and port are found in the previous step,
user LMDB_DS_XXX is used in the http destination SLD_DataSupplier here.

When the destination 'SLD_DataSupplier' is changed please check the SLD Data Supplier Configuration. The
Target URL should be the LMDB target. Then execute the collection and sending of the data to the LMDB.

III. Steps to register ASCS or SCS instance of the managed system are the same, here we take ASCS
instance as a sample.

1. Go to the host where ASCS instance locates, find the

directory /usr/sap/<SAPSID>/SYS/exe/uc/<platform> (UNIX) or X:\usr\sap\<SAPSID>\SYS\exe\uc\
<platform> (Windows),

https://userapps.support.sap.com/sap/support/sfm/notes/print/0002836143?language=E&token=DD75AF35071EDA643548F4E6A2960150 4/8

2. Run the command below and provide the Solution Manager ABAP host and ABAP port which is used for
http destination in the previous step.

sldreg -configure slddest.cfg -usekeyfile

3. The command can generate the file "slddest.cfg" and "slddest.cfg.key" in the current folder, move them
to the folder below,
/usr/sap/<SAPSID>/SYS/global (UNIX) or X:\usr\sap\<SAPSID>\SYS\global (Windows).

4. Restart the service sapstartsrv. You can run the command "sapcontrol -nr NN -function RestartService"
(Unix). Or open SAP MMC -> find ASCS instance and choose "All Tasks -> Restart Service"(Windows)

5. Then go to LMDB and verify if ASCS instance can be seen under technical system -> Technical
instances -> tab Central Services.

IV. For HANA systems, you need to use the host and port of SAP Solution Manager ABAP and also the user as
above to configure HDBLCM.

V. For BOBJ systems, if you use ACTool to register the BOBJ system, the registration is the same, you need to
use the host and port of LMDB and also the user as above to define the SLD relevant parameters in
the boe.properties file.
