GDS Console Overview

2 GDS Console Overview

Use

The GDS Console is a Java-based application running on the SAP NetWeaver Application Server (Web AS) Java, which is the main interface of SAP NetWeaver MDM GDS. Connected to the back-end system through SAP NetWeaver Process Integration (PI) connectors, the GDS Console imports item data for enhancement and storage, registration with the data pools and Global Registry, and subsequent publication to trade partners. Components

The GDS Console operates with the following components to execute processes within the SAP NetWeaver MDM GDS business scenario: 1æ¤fiN MDM Server and Database The GDS Repository is stored on the MDM Server. It includes the functionality required for backup and restoration, and metadata management. 1æ¤fiN MDM Console An MDM application used to administer and monitor the MDM Server software, and for creating, backing up, and restoring repositories on MDM. 1æ¤fiN SAP NetWeaver Process Integration (PI) non-central J2EE Adapter Engine and PI AS2 Adapter (by Seeburger) Responsible for the secure transfer and synchronization of messages between the GDS Console and the data pools. SAP NetWeaver PI is also used to transfer data between the back-end system and the GDS Console. 1æ¤fiN ERP Back End System Creates the items and transfers the initial data and item status changes to the GDS Console through a system of messages. 1æ¤fiN SAP EHP1 for SAP NetWeaver CE 7.1 Java Stack (with SAP NetWeaver Portal Core - optional) The GDS application runs on the SAP NetWeaver Java stack as a Web Dynpro application. The GDS portal content can be deployed to the server if you select the “Portal Core” option. GDS is made available as a workset in SAP NetWeaver Portal Core, thereby utilizing the portal features of single sign-on and role based access. This is optional. The GDS application can also run in standalone mode without the SAP NetWeaver Portal Core. The figure below illustrates a typical minimum SAP NetWeaver MDM GDS technical landscape:

Procedure

1. 2.

Create an allow.ip text file in the \usr\sap\MDM\MDS\exe folder. Add the IP address of the server where GDSCORE is deployed in this file. NOTE

3. 4.

If you use GDS in distributed portal mode, add the IP address of the GDS standalone instance. Log in to the Portal with Portal Administrator and create your new GDS portal user. Add the following GDS portal role to the new GDS portal user: Name

pcd:portal_content/com.sap.pct/specialist /SAP_NetWeaver_MDM_GDS/Roles/SAP_MDM_GDS

Now you can access the SAP GDS workset with the new users. If the GDS portal user with the pcd:portal_content/com.sap.pct/specialist/SAP_NetWeaver_MDM_GDS/Roles/ SAP_MDM_GDS role has been created, the new GDS portal user has to log in to GDS in the portal mode and choose the SAP NetWeaver MDM global data synchronization option tab. At the same time, a new user with the same name as the GDS portal user is created in the GDS Console with the Everyone role. NOTE

The new GDS portal user has only the rights defined in the Everyone role. Administrator users can assign additional roles to the new GDS user. NOTE

If your GDS portal user name is 'GDSAdmin', 'Admin', or 'Administrator', the new user gets 'Admin' role in MDM. Otherwise, it gets only the 'Everyone' role and the administrator can extend the access rights. NOTE

If you use GDS in distributed Portal mode, set the appropriate values for the following application properties in the GDS portal instance for application is~gds~ui~model: Property Name
