Use

In this IMG Activity you can define content repositories to which contents can be moved.

You must only carry out this activity if problems have occurred in automatic configuration with the SAP Kpro Web Configuration Tool (see below), if you want to change the settings created by this tool, or if you want to insert more content repositories.

In Knowledge Warehouse three different types of content repositories are used:

  • HTTP Content Server

    Documents of different types are generally stored in an external Content Server with SAP HTTP Interface (SAP Content Server).

  • Structure Storage System

    Structures are stored in the Structure Storage System of the SAP System.

  • Database

    Document administration data, macro files and other utilities needed to use the Knowledge Warehouse are stored in the SAP System Database.

You can find further information on content repositories in the SAP Knowledge Warehouse Installation Guide and in the SAP Library under Basis - Basis Services - SAP Knowledge Provider - Content Management Service - Concepts.

Requirements

In order to define an HTTP content repository in the external SAP Content Server as well as in the SAP System, the repository must be installed and an RFC connection to it must exist.

Standard settings

If you have used the SAP Kpro Web Configuration Tool when installing the Knowledge Warehouse and have selected automatic configuration of the content server, HTTP content repositories have already been created for the document ranges delivered with Knowledge Warehouse, in the SAP System as well as in the SAP content server. The names of these repositories follow the convention <SYSID>_<DOCUMENT AREA>. In addition an HTTP content repository <SYSID<_CUSTCONT will have been created. You can use this to store documents you may wish to create within the document ranges you have created.

Repositories in the SAP System (repositories of the Structure Storage and SAP database types) are delivered with the system and therefore do not need to be created.

Activities

  1. In order to create a content repository, go to the Change Mode in the Overview Screen of the available content repositories and select Create.
  2. In the field Content Rep. enter the name of the content repository and in the field Description enter an explanation.
  3. In the field DocRange select the document range whose content you wish to store in the content repository. However,as content from several document ranges can be stored in one content repository, you do not need to assign a specific document range.
  4. In the field Storage Type select one of the three above mentioned storage types and make the required additional entries in the fields which appear.
    • HTTP-Content Server
    • In the field Version Nr enter value 0046 in order to select version 4.6 of the HTTP interface.
      In the field HTTP Server enter the host name (including domain) and in the field Portnumber enter the port on which the SAP Content Server is installed. The standard value for the Content Server Port is 1090.
      In the field HTTP Script enter the path and program names of the HTTPContent Server Interface: ContentServer/ContentServer.dll.
      By clicking on Send Certificate you can send the SAP System certificate to the HTTP Content Server. You need to send this certificate in order to work with signed URLs.After the certificate has been sent to the Content Server you need to activate it in the content server before you can work with the content server and store documents.
    • Structure Storage
    • If you need a repository of this type for one of your document ranges in which you also produce structures, use the repository CUSTSTRUCT in which all the documents of the storage category (content category) of the same name are stored.
    • Database
    • If you need a repository of this type for one of your document ranges use the repository CUSTCONTDB in which all documents of the storage category (content category) of the same name are stored.
  5. Save your entries
