Including SAP Systems in the Transport DomainLocate this document in the navigation structure

Prerequisites

Once you have configured an SAP system as the transport domain controller, you can include all additional systems in the transport domain.

Procedure

This occurs in two steps:

  1. Submit the new SAP system to be included in the transport domain.
  2. Confirm the inclusion in the transport domain controller.
Submitting a System to Be Included

To include an SAP system in the transport domain, proceed as follows:

  1. Log on in client 000 in the SAP system that you want to include in the transport domain.
  2. Call transaction STMS.

    If your SAP systems have a common transport directory, TMS proposes that you include this SAP system in the transport domain when you call the transaction.

    (If your SAP Systems do not have a common transport directory, see SAP Systems Without a Common Transport Directory.)

    The Evaluation: Include System in Transport Domain dialog box displays the name of the transport domain and the address data of the domain controller.

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

  3. Save your entries.

    You are asked for the password of user TMSADM on the Transport Domain Controller.

  4. Enter the password that you selected when Configuring the Transport Domain Controller.

    Next, the SAP system executes the following actions automatically:

    • User TMSADM is created with your password
    • Stores the password of the TMSADM user in the Secure Storage of the SAP System
    • Generates the RFC destinations required for the TMS
    • Sends the address data to the domain controller.
    • Sends the profile parameter for configuring the transport control program to the domain controller.
    • Configures the SAP system as a single system.

The initial screen of transaction STMS indicates that the system is waiting to be included in the transport domain.

Note

For security reasons, the domain controller must confirm the inclusion of the SAP system.

Confirming the Inclusion of the System

To confirm the inclusion of the system in the transport domain, proceed as follows:

  1. Log on to the SAP system that is the transport domain controller.
  2. Call transaction STMS.
  3. Choose Start of the navigation path Overview Next navigation step Systems End of the navigation path.

    The system overview appears.

    The Status column shows that an SAP system is waiting to be included in the transport domain.

  4. Position the cursor on this SAP system and choose Start of the navigation path SAP System Next navigation step Approve End of the navigation path.
  5. Confirm the prompt and distribute the configuration.

    This SAP system now contains the necessary information about all the other SAP systems in the transport domain. At the same time, the address data of the new SAP system is sent to all the other SAP systems, and the SAP system is entered in the transport profile of the transport control program.

    Note

    To reject the inclusion of an SAP system in the transport domain, choose Start of the navigation path SAP System Next navigation step Delete End of the navigation path in the system overview of the domain controller.

    Caution

    Check the consistency of the transport groups. Incorrectly configured transport groups can damage import queues and transport logs.

Result

The configuration of the transport domain is now complete for this SAP system.
