      Hi Stefanie,

      thanks for all infos, just a question: our PCoE certification will expire after 1st Jan 2018....this means that we must upgrade our 7.1 SolMan even if we are certified?

      thx

      nice day

      luigi

      Hello Luigi

      yes, you will have to upgrade your SAP Solution Manager eventually. Your recertification audit after December 31, 2017 will require the 7.2 version.

      Hello Khuram,

      for the sake of the audit, the DB you are using for SAP Solution Manager is irrelevant.

      Check out the Product Availability Matrix (PAM) for upgrade and installation details for SAP Solution Manager 7.2

      Dear Stefanie Rindt

      Thanks a lot

      It means we need to first download the customer systems from SAP Portal using LMDB. Then we need to complete the Managed system configuration for each system ? If customer has EWA reports in their own Solman then is it possible taht customer send us the EWA reports. Also, if the customer is sending EWA to SAP and not the partner then how can we download the EWA from SAP portal to patner solnam

      Please advise

      Hi Farooq,

      I'm afraid I cannot comment on this. I suggest to attend the Expert -guided sessions (EGI) offered by the SAP Enterprise Support Academy. They cover SAP Solution Manager and ITSM setup, and you have the chance to talk to an expert directly. You can access the EGIs via the SAP Learning Hub, Enterprise Support edition: https://support.sap.com/en/offerings-programs/enterprise-support/enterprise-support-academy/expert-guided-implementation.html

      Regards

      Hi Stefanie,

       

      Can you please let me know, which SP level is required for Solution Manager 7.2, for the purpose of PCOE audit.

       

      Regards,

      Faheem.

      Hi Faheem,

      for the audit, the latest SPS or -2 is required. We are currently at SAP Solution Manager 7.2 SPS 6, so we would accept SPS 4 or higher for audit. SPS 7 is planned for May. So if your audit is after that, the requirement would be SPS 5+.

      Regards,

      Stefanie

      EWA display in VAR solman 7.2 ?

      EWA display in VAR solman 7.2

      Hi ,

      I am not able to find a corresponding auth. role that allows VAR customers to display only their own EWAs in solman 7.2. In 7.1 we had such a thing like SAP_SMWORK_SYS_MON_SPC role. Now, the EWAs are located under the service delivery section and can be accessed haing role SAP_SMWORK_SERVICE_DEV.

      But for VAR customer this is not useful as the user is able to see all EWAs, also those from other customers...

      Hello Jianhua

      I'm afraid I cannot answer that one and have to refer to the experts. Check out the SAP Solution Manager wikis: https://wiki.scn.sap.com/wiki/display/SM

      Thanks Gurjeet for the note. I updated the links. The EGI for VARs has been discontinued. I'll confirm with SAP Enterprise Support Academy just in case.

      Thanks Stefanie, it would be good if SAP still provide the EGI for VAR 🙂
