Transferring Eclipse Project Artifacts between HANA systems using Web IDE w/b Editor

Introduction

In some environments, it is not always the case where control and security is necessary. Especially in home based developments such as HANA Express Edition, where you may wish to lift your efforts and take to another system.

If you are developing content in Eclipse, under a Project, and you have Functions amongst other Project artifacts. Using Eclipse File -> Export will not pick up certain objects, i.e. functions.

The various Functions exist in Project, along with Views. In the Export Dialog Window, the Functions are not visible, like the Views. More so, adding the Function Package, still does not find them.

Importing Database Systems in Bulk into SAP DB Control Center

Registering a large number of database systems to monitor one by one can become a time consuming process. Instead of adding one system at a time, you can add multiple systems at once using an import file.

Note: This document was originally created by a former colleague of mine, Yuki Ji, in support of a customer engagement initiative regarding the SAP DB Control Center (DCC) product.  To preserve this knowledge, the document was migrated to this space.

1. Configure Monitored Systems - Make sure to setup the technical user for each system you wish to configure. You will need the credentials of the technical user for import registration.
2. Create an Import File - Create an import file according to the format indicated in the link. Save the import file as either a .csv or a .txt file.
