SAP Cache Server integration with Content Server in DMS

[Former Member]

Hello,

I have completed SAP Cache server install and now in process of doing post-install activities for SAP Cache Server.

I have following queries.

1- I followed OSS Note 216419, but I want to know how can I add entries to tables SDOKLOC, SCMSIPNET, SCMSHOST, SCMSCACHE, SCMSLOPA, SCMSCSPX. The Tcodes mentioned in the OSS Note 216419 is not sufficient.

2- Also anyone provide me the SAP help URL, OSS Note, SDN guide on how to fulfill SAP Cache Server post-install activities.

3- Also what are the activities to integrate Content Server with Cache Server

The Content Server is integrated with ECC through repositories, categories etc.

4- How do I integrate Cache server with ECC system.

Thanks in advance.

I use the SAP SPRO IMG menu to get to the configuration steps. Under SAP Netweaver, Application Server, Basis Services, Knowledge Provider, Content Management Services, Distribution to get at these settings.<BR>

<BR>

For Location, create a name for each business location. Athens, Madrid, etc <BR>

For Hosts, identify to SAP the name of each cache server host and the Location where it is at. <BR>

For Cache, identify to SAP the cache server name, port, and HTTP script <BR>

<BR>

host----port--

HTTP script <BR>

sapcont0 - 1095 -

---

/Cache/CSProxyCache.dll <BR>

sapcont1 - 1095 -

---

/Cache/CSProxyCache.dll <BR>

<BR>

For IP SUB NET identify the IP range, and location <BR>

netmask -

location and description<BR>

10.80.0.0/16 -

COLUMBUS Columbus Plant<BR>

Based on the IP number of the user, the location is determined. The cache server assigned to that location is then used. I have found it very helpful to have a program that will deliver a URL based in the document key and an IP number. This will show how SAP is acutally building the cache URL for the original files. The BAPI C_DESK_DOC_GET_URL will get the URL but with no caching. If you want a caching URL, I know of no existing BAPI. We wrote our own. But using the C_DESK_DOC_GET_URL BAPI, you can get the URL and patch it up to call your cache server. If you have "check signature" ON this may not work. My cache servers are Windows machines with SAP DB on them.<BR>

<BR>

Standard URL from BAPI<BR>

http://fsdms:1090/ContentServer/ContentServer.dll?get&pVersion=0046&contRep=ZFSDESIGN&docId=3EBD3968...

<BR><BR>

To call cache server sapcont0 to cache the contents of this URL, do the following from left to right.....<BR>

remove http:// <BR>

replace : with %3A <BR>

replace / with %2F <BR>

replace / with %2F <BR>

replace ? with %3F <BR>

<BR>

Now the URL looks like this (not yet finished) <BR>

fsdms%3A1090%2FContentServer%2FContentServer.dll%3F&pVersion=0046&contRep=ZFSDESIGN&docId=3EBD396827608292E10000002047AF7C&compId=316M.PLT

<BR><BR>

To the front of that add the cache server call

http://sapcont0:1095//Cache/CSProxyCache.dll?get&forward=

<BR><BR>

Finished URL is<BR>

http://sapcont0:1095//Cache/CSProxyCache.dll?get&forward=fsdms%3A1090%2FContentServer%2FContentServe...

<BR><BR>

If I want to test a different cache server I just put in the other sever's host name. When one location has a problem, checking to see if the cache server is functioning correctly is one of the first things I do. Having the ability to use URLs like this to verify the servers is very helpful.
