Hi all,
in one of our project customer asks if we could have a single Gateway for development and testing. I think that basically this is possible and would know if there are some known best practices. In particular I have two main questions
- How to connect OData service? Suppose we develop an OData service OurService. The only method I know is to use two system aliases in /iwfnd/maint_service on the Gateway and use roles to specify user specific to which system a request is forwarded. Unfortunately I can't use both systems in parallel for comparison.
Is there a way to publisch a backend OData service with a different name? E.g. BAckend service is MyService and Gateway publishes it under MyServiceDev? - How about transport? We would like to have a devleoper and a test version of our apps deployed to Gateway (reason: Navigation between apps in Launchpad). Sure we can deploy an apps twice with different names. But then we have only one transport from Gateway to Productive system. Did you ever re-deploy an app with different name to same Gateway with standard SAP transport mechanism?
Any help or hints are highly appreciated
Regards
Meinrad
