MDM Adapter for PI 7.3

Hi All,

Have anyone used the MDM PI adapter for PI 7.1 or PI 7.11 with PI 7.3?

Following is SAP help for MDM PI adapter. It doesn't talk about PI 7.3. I was wondering if MDM Adapter for PI 7.1 or PI 7.11 will work for PI 7.3.

http://help.sap.com/saphelp_mdm71/helpdata/en/48/97401a55493987e10000000a421937/content.htm

Please share your thoughts and experience if anyone tried this.

Thanks,

Sami

Hi Sami,

MDM-PI adapter is avaible in PI 7.3 dual stack and single stack ,so you no need to worry because all scenarios will work in PI 7.3 too.

But deploy your MDM SCA files correctly on PI 7.3 server.

Hi Samiullah

PI adapter that you are talking about is not really specific for MDM. It is decentralized PI adapter engine, that can be deployed on any SAP NetWeaver WAS system. Well, it will provide similar range of java adapter as those are available on SAP PI central adapter engine. And it will be able to talk to independent SAP PI system (version does not matter).

But really I am wondering why would you need to install separate decentralized adapter engine for MDM.

1- If you have SAP PI in your landscape, it is capable to establish communication with MDM.

2- Not sure which MDM version you are on, but SAP MDM also comes with own ETL layer, called 'BusinessObjects Data Services'. DS provides with set of adapters, and also meant to be carrying all sorts of ETL operations.

Check this link,

Hope this helps.

Thank Anand for your response.

The MDM PI adapter mentioned in SAP Help is for both Central and De-Central Adapter Engine.


MDM PI Adapter supports the central as well as the non central PI Adapter server and is deployed on one of the following SAP NetWeaver servers:

u25CF      SAP NetWeaver PI 7.0 SP15 and higher
u25CF      SAP NetWeaver PI 7.1 SP07 and higher
u25CF      SAP NetWeaver PI 7.11 SP01 and higher

We are using the same MDM PI adapter with our PI 7.0 server and scenarios are running in production environment without any issues. Now, we are upgrading our PI to PI 7.3. So I was wondering how we will migrate the scenarios from PI 7.0 to PI 7.3 which use MDM PI Adapter in connections since SAP Help doesn't talk about MDM PI Adapter for PI 7.3. However, we have got confirmation from SAP over Email that MDM PI adapter will work with PI 7.3 as well.
