batch program to replicate DataSources in process chains

[Former Member]

Hi everybody,

I am looking for a batch program to replicate DataSoruces in a BW 3.5 system. I would like to use this program at the beginning of process chains, in order to avoid any potential problems from transports into productive environment.

I found the following program already but it seems not to work: RSAOS_METADATA_UPLOAD_BATCH

thanks in advance for any help

Hi Ulrich,

try RS_TRANSTRU_ACTIVATE_ALL, probably with a proper variant in the beginning. In large implementations it will take a while ...

Hi Sven,

yes of course - RS_TRANSTRU_ACTIVATE_AL is in my process chain allready but this does not replicate the datasources

thx anyway

Hi Ulrich and welcome to the SDN,

use FM

FUNCTION RSAOS_METADATA_UPLOAD

EXPORTING

I_LOGSYS = <your source system>

I_OSOURCE = <your datasource> "optional

kind regards

Hi Siggi,

good point but this FM is exactly the same that is embedded in the program RSAOS_METADATA_UPLOAD_BATCH which I tried already but is unfortunately ineffective. Do you have an idea why?

If you are changing the datasources in R/3, you probably have a BW transport which changes the InfoSource definition as well. In this case, its advisable to do the R/3 transport first, replicate datasources, then do the BW transport.

Simply replicating datasources at the beginning of the process chain may have unintended consequences.

Hi John

thanks for the hint. Of course you are right. I would expect to have also a transport in BW. It happend unfortunately several times, that not only the involved DataSource got inactivated in our complex data model, but also other ones.

That's why I look simply for the program that replicates DataSources. I tried already with tracing in via SM30 - unfortunately no useful results

Hi Ulrich,

Just out of curiosity..How did you manage to give points to yourself.

No clue Dinesh

I am new to this forum and it is still not perfectly transparent for me - just like now I would like to give Siggi some points but the browser does not allow it althought I am logged in.

In that sense sorry if you expected some tricks - I don't know how this happend

Hi Ulrich,

I have the same problem. Do you know how to replicate the datasource in batch program ???

Thanks,
