Security Optimization Self Service and EWA

[Former Member]

Hi,

I am curious if you can keep on using the same SOS session?

The ST14 data is of course different from every collection, but what about the preliminary data collected from the EWA download? Is this getting updated in the session (which I doubt) or do you need to close the current session and then create a new one?

What about if you reinitialize a session fx. once a month. Will the data from the weekly EWA download then be updated?

Hi,

the EWA data of a specific session will not be updated by a new EWA download. One session has exacly one EWA download.

But if you do not change profile parameter settings and want to check only changes made in the authorization settings you can re-use an existing session und upload the new ST14 data. If you also change profile parameters then the corresponding checks will stil be based on the settings of the old EWA DL.

Hi,

Thank you for responding.

This was also what I expected, so thanks for confirming this.

Do you by any chance now why there are three checks (0303-0305) which is not rated, and do not contain any data at all? The data is collected in the ST14 upload.

I tried asking this in the security check department a couple of weeks ago, but it was apparently not the right place, since I have not got an answer :-).

Note 837490 says that this could be because ST-SER is newer than ST-A/PI, but I have got the newest version available.

Thanks

Hi,

As already answered per email :

This bug is fixed with the new SAP Solution Manager Add-On ST-SER 700_2006_2 (ST-SER 620_2006_2), which will be available from 08.12.2006.

Thank you very much finding out this issue.

Regards

Ulf
