Configuring the Transport Domain Controller

You have decided which system is to be the Transport Domain Controller.

To configure a system as the transport domain controller (and thereby configure a new transport domain):

1. Log on in client 000 in the SAP system that you want to configure as the transport domain controller.
2. Call transaction STMS. The TMS: Configure Transport Domain dialog box appears.

   (This dialog box only appears if you have not yet configured a transport domain.)

3. Enter a name and a short description of the transport domain.
   Note

   The name of the transport domain may not contain blank characters. You cannot change the name of the transport domain afterwards without reconfiguring the domain controller and thereby the entire transport domain.

4. If your SAP system consists of multiple application servers, you can choose one server for the TMS.
5. Save your entries.

   You are asked for the password of user TMSADM.

6. Enter a secure password that you do not use for any other purpose.
   Note

   You must remember the password. You need it to set up an SAP system group again. You can change the password of user TMSADM later by executing program TMS_UPDATE_PWD_OF_TMSADM . The program copies the password to all affected SAP systems of the TMS landscape.

   Your SAP system performs the following actions automatically on save:

   • Creates the user TMSADM with the password that you chose, and assigns the profile S.A_TMSADM to the user
   • Stores the password of the TMSADM user in the Secure Storage of the system
   • Generates the RFC destinations required for the TMS
   • Stores the TMS configuration in the transport directory
   • Generates the transport profile for the transport control program tp
   • Configures the SAP system as a single system

The configuration of the transport domain is now complete for this SAP system. The initial screen of transaction STMS shows that this SAP system is now functioning as the domain controller of the transport domain.
