Hi guys,

Is it possible to use Dev PI system as shared system for both Dev and QA landscape?

If yes then What would it take to replicate the Dev interfaces  in QA and use PI system as a common middleware system for both landscapes .

Kindly suggest on this.

Thanks & Regards,

Anuj

Hi,

Yes, I have worked on a few landscapes where we had our Dev and QA on the same box.

Design:

We normally used the same mappings for Dev and QA interface. So that can be good and bad.

Good for development changes. Changes on one place and it replicates to both for example.

But bad when you only want to change it from Development only. You need to copy the mapping etc.

Configuration:

This is normally easy. You just need to make sure that your naming convention is correct. So that Dev and QA is in the name.

It is also very easy to make a copy of the interface which saves a lot of time. It lets you change the Party or Business Systems while you copy.

So I would suggest having them on one box. It works well.

Hi Jannus,

In our project , PI is only in dev and production, it is not in quality landscape. The scenario is from ECC->PI-> third party.

so can we use the PI(dev) system as a shared system so that by using this, we can perform testing in Quality.

If possible then what changes are needed to be done?

Kindly suggest on this.

Hi,

So you will need to add ECC QA in the SLD(Technical and Business System) of development.

Then assign the business system in development.

Then go to your scenario. Right click and say copy.

Follow the steps and activate.

Hi Jannus,

Can we perform following steps to meet the objective-

  1. Make changes in RFC of ECC(QA) so that it can point to Dev PI system.
  2. Make changes in RFC of Dev PI system so thatit can point to third party system(QA).
  3. Need to perform SLD activity.

Please see comments below.

  1. Make changes in RFC of ECC(QA) so that it can point to Dev PI system.
    • Correct
  2. Make changes in RFC of Dev PI system so thatit can point to third party system(QA).
    • Correct - For you QA Business System
  3. Need to perform SLD activity.
    • Correct again

Just a bit of advice. Try and use Proxy instead of RFC. Proxy works extremely well. But I am not sure what type of data you want to send.

Hi Anuj,

I totally agree with Jannus. You can have problems on the ESR if you want to change any object only for development environment. We normally maintain two namespaces one for development and the other for quality and production. We only work on the development and we all is finished we copy to the quality one and finally we transport only this last one. It's a bit fuzzy and you will need a srtrict behavior with the PI team to avoid any problem. On OD we use the same approach as Anuj, with Party-Business Component to difference environments.

So what is advisable : to create a PI system in quality or to use the dev PI system for Quality which then become shared system between dev and quality.
