Wizard Based Configuration of DI
Use
This document provides an introduction to configuring the SAP NetWeaver Development Infrastructure (NWDI).
To configure NWDI you use the Configuration Wizard. The configuration itself consists of a number of steps, which the Configuration Wizard automatically executes. You only provide the parameters and trigger the execution process.
You can use also the configuration tasks:
● Change Management Service (CMS): Create an Application Skeleton
Creates tracks for some common application types, for example xApps or composites.
The configuration task Change Management Service (CMS): Create an Application Skeleton can be executed remotely on the runtime system for which the development in the track is designed (SAP NetWeaver 7.0 or SAP NetWeaver 7.1 Composition Environment (CE)). Thus the configuration can make use, for example of the build plug-in SCAs that reside on the runtime system to fill CBS with the correct build environment. If you prefer to run this task on the NWDI system, note that you then need to copy the necessary SCAs into the inbox folder of CMS in the transport directory (that is to /usr/sap/trans/EPS/in/CMS<host><sid>).
For example,
to configure a track for Composite Application development on CE 7.1 run the
configuration task Change Management Service (CMS):
Create an Application Skeleton on the CE development system and specify
the SAP NetWeaver 7.0 system as NWDI system in it. For more information, see
Setting Up
Tracks Using the Configuration Template.
● Change Management Service (CMS): Modify a Software Component
Creates a track for modification of an SC, for example for SAP_ESS. The configuration task Initial Setup of functional unit Development Infrastructure (DI all-in-one) must be executed on the NWDI server where CMS should be running.
Prerequisites
The System Landscape Directory (SLD) is set up. For more information, see Wizard-Based Configuration for SLD.
Procedure
Starting Automatic Post Installation Configuration
...
1. To start the Configuration Wizard, start the SAP NetWeaver Administrator and log on as an administrator. Choose Configuration Management → Scenarios → Configuration Wizard.
The Configuration Wizard appears.
2. Select the configuration task Initial setup of functional unit Development Infrastructure (DI all-in-one).
3. Choose Start and follow the steps of the wizard.
Manually Configuring the Usage Type DI
If for some reason the automatic post installation wizard fails, you can try to manually execute the configuration steps. Here you can find information about the exact manual configuration steps:

2. Setting Up Privileges, Roles and Groups
3. Preparing the System Landscape Directory (SLD)
4. Setting Up the Name Service
5. Creating a Software Component in the SLD
