TMS: Administering R/3 Systems
To create a transport domain, call the TMS from Client 000. To automatically define the transport domain controller as as the current system choose Tools → Administration → Transports → TransportManagement System.
As soon as the domain has been created, additional systems can apply for acceptance by the domain. For security reasons, these systems are not accepted until they have been authorized by the transport domain controller.
The TMS System Overview displays the various system statuses:
Waiting for acceptance by the domain
Active
System locked for the TMS
System not accepted
System deleted
Technically, TMS can connect systems with different R/3 release statuses. However, SAP does not support any transports between such systems.
Because of its central importance, the transport domain controller should run on an R/3 System with a high availability.
Configuring Transport Routes
To configure the transport routes between systems in the domain, use the hierarchical list editor and graphical editor provided by the TMS. Define these settings in the transport domain controller.
The transport routes can be either consolidation or delivery routes.
For consolidation routes, a transport layer is used, for example to define a
route between the development and the quality assurance system.
Delivery routes connect systems, for example the quality assurance and the
production system. They do not use transport layers.
Create transport routes in the graphical editor using drag and drop.
After the transport routes have been configured in the transport domain
controller, they can be distributed across all systems in the domain.
These setting must be activated in all the systems in the domain. This can also be
done centrally by the transport domain controller.
To enable previous configurations to be reused, you can create versions in the TMS.
