SAP Systems Without a Common Transport DirectoryLocate this document in the navigation structure

Procedure

To include an SAP System in the transport domain when the system does not have the same transport directory as the domain controller:

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

    The Evaluation: Configure Transport Domain dialog box is displayed.

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

  3. Choose Start of the navigation path Other Configuration Next navigation step Include System in Domain End of the navigation path.
  4. In the next dialog box, enter the target host and the system number of the transport domain controller.

    To find the address data you need to enter here:

    1. Log on to the SAP System that functions as the transport domain controller.

    2. In the initial screen of the Transport Management System, choose Start of the navigation path Overview Next navigation step Systems End of the navigation path.

      The system overview appears.

    3. Position the cursor on the domain controller and choose Start of the navigation path SAP System Next navigation step Display End of the navigation path.

      The screen Display TMS Configuration: System <SID> appears where you can view the address data.

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

    Your SAP System performs the following actions:

    • Creates the user TMSADM.
    • 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 for inclusion in the transport domain.

    Note

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

Note

After you have included the first SAP System from another transport group in the transport domain, the description of the transport domain is also stored in this transport directory. When STMS is first called, all other SAP Systems connected to this transport directory automatically propose that the SAP System is included in this transport domain.
