SummarySymptomWhen you implement or update a scenario, you must update the SAP Component Repository Content (SAP CR Content) in the System Landscape Directory (SLD).

Other termsSystem Landscape Directory (SLD) Software Lifecycle Management Software Catalog CIM Model CR Content Exchange Infrastructure (PI) NetWeaver Development Infrastructure (NWDI)

Reason and PrerequisitesThe SAP Component Repository (SAP CR Content) is an integral part of the System Landscape Directory. It is the part of the data that is delivered by SAP. We recommend that you always use the latest version of SAP CR Content. The Repository is provided on SAP Service Marketplace under "SAP Support Packages & Patches". The following items are available here: 1. 2. The current CIM data model as the file cimsap....zip A current SAP CR Content update as the file CRDelta....zip

The SAP CR Content is independent from the SLD release. Therefore, you must always import the latest SAP CR Content into each SLD. The Support Package numbering has no connection to the Support Packages of other components or products. The SAP CR Content is delivered for all releases. A user must have administration authorization to import the update into the System Landscape Directory. The AS Java system in which the SLD is installed must have at least SAP NetWeaver Version 2004. If the SLD operates as a cluster, make sure you refer to the information provided in SAP Note 825116 for SAP NW 2004.

Solution1. Determine the data model versions and SAP CR Content versions that are available in your SLD. "Administration" -> "Details" -> "Data" contains the current CIM model version and the version of the SAP CR Content (for example, 1.5.32 as the model version and SAP_CR 3.10 as the Content Version). If no SAP CR Content exists in the SLD, you must first initially fill the SLD. When you install the system, this provides an initial04.10.2012 Page 1 of 5

2.

Go to SAP Service Marketplace (SMP) and download the required updates. The SAP CR CONTENT is available under http://service.sap.com/patches as follows: A-Z Index -> Support Packages and Patches -> C -> SAP CR CONTENT You must first download the current CIM model. This is located under SAP CR CONTENT UP TO ... (the highest available year) and has the file name cimsap....zip. If there are several of these files, use the latest one. Caution: If a model version is under 1.4.31, you must first follow the instructions in Note 907897. Depending on the initial version of your SAP CR Content, you may have to import several CRDelta upgrades. The following list contains the required updates. From 1.x to 2.0: SMP entry point: SAP MASTER DATA FOR SLD 1.0 End of maintenance reached; no longer available.

From 2.x to 3.0 SMP entry point: SAP MASTER DATA FOR SLD 2.0 File name: CRDelta1418_0-10003379.ZIP Remark: see below, switch from 2.0 to 3.0

From 3.x to 4.0 SMP entry point: SAP CR CONTENT UP TO 2007 File name: CRDelta1511_0-10004549.ZIP

SAP Note 669669 Updating the SAP Component Repository in the SLDFrom 8.x to 8.y (latest version) SMP entry point: SAP CR CONTENT UP TO 2012 File name: CRDelta81601*.ZIP Remark: use the latest file.

Example: You are using the current CR Content 3.7. Download the latest data model cimsap....zip and the following files: CRDelta1511_0-10004549.ZIP, CRDelta41514_0-10006428.ZIP, CRDelta51509_0-20005942.ZIP, CRDelta61610_0-20006535.ZIP, CRDelta71611_0-20008269.ZIP and the latest file CRDelta81601*.ZIP.

3.

Import the updates You have now downloaded the required archives. The system does not unpack the archives but imports them as a ZIP file. For some archives, you must note particular rules that are described at the end of this note. Before the import, check whether you must consider further details in your case. Use Administration -> Import to first import the model update cimsap....zip. You cannot ignore any warning that may occur telling you that a newer model has already been loaded. You must therefore not choose "Import Anyway", but you must choose "Cancel Import" as you must not import an old model on top of a newer model. You can import the same model version and this does not lead to any warning. For further details, refer to Note 1045423. You must then import the Content-Update CRDelta....zip file(s). The update contains all of the changes as of the initial status (= aggregate of all updates). The program only imports those changes that are not already present in your Component Repository - it ignores all changes that you have already imported. When you repeat the import of a delta that has already been successfully imported, the import is not carried out, which is correct. You must also not ignore any warnings here, but you must choose "Cancel Import". The warning is usually caused by an error when selecting the entry point on SAP Service Marketplace. Repeat the solution steps 1 and 2.

In SLD under "Administration" -> "Details" -> "Data", check the version of the content that you have imported.

Special features of individual packagesThe delta CRDelta1511_0... contains the deletion of all scenario data and solution data that is no longer required. For this reason, the import of the delta takes between 15 and 30 minutes. Furthermore, the delta CRDelta1511_0...requires the model 1.5.32. Therefore, you must first import the file cimsap1511_0...04.10.2012 Page 3 of 5

SAP Note 669669 Updating the SAP Component Repository in the SLDThe delta CRDelta61608_0... exceeds the size of 20 MB. In older system landscape directories (SLD), however, the file upload is limited to 20 MB. If the file upload terminates with a relevant error message, increase the limit to 40 MB as described in Note 1326081.

Upgrade from Version 2.0 to Version 3.0To upgrade from SAP MASTER DATA FOR SLD 2.0 to SAP CR CONTENT UP TO 2007 (technical version is 3.0), you are required to perform the following steps: 1. Import the last delta from 2.0. This comprises model 1.5.20 (cimsap1418_...zip) and the content delta (CRDelta1418_...zip). Before you import the new model, check the parameter RejectUnsupportedCIMQualifiers and the existing model version. Proceed according to Note 907897. In 6.40 and 7.0 Support Package 0 - Support Package 9, the import of the model (file cimsap....zip) takes 30-60 minutes. As of Release 7.0 Support Package 10, the import requires less than 1 minute. 2. You can obtain the next update from SAP CR CONTENT UP TO 2007 (3.0).
