Creating an SCA File 

Use

In this step, you create a new software component archive (SCA) of the application from the consolidated state of the software changes.

Prerequisites

You are in the Transport Studio of the Change Management Service (CMS).

You have already performed the consolidation.

Procedure

 

       1.      Choose the Assembly tab page. You see the change request with the status Waiting for Assembly.

The All Components setting assembles all software components defined in the track. Using the menu selection allows you to create individual software component archives.

       2.      Select the change request and choose  Assemble Component(s). The Assembly Options dialog box appears. Keep the default settings and choose Assemble.

Result

The CMS creates a new software component archive (SCA) and prepares it for import into the test J2EE Engine.

The SCA file is in the directory usr\sap\Jtrans\archives.

The archive name is structured as follows:

<vendor>~<SC name>~<domain>_<track ID>_<system role>~<timestamp>.sca.

Next Step

Importing the SCA into the Test System
