System Preparation :
Why we perform system preparation?
- System preparation prepares the solution manager system for basic configuration.
- Needs to be performed fully after a new installation or upgrade.
- Partially after upgrades and patches to update dialog and system users, and assign the appropriate default roles.
- During this step, the Central Correction Note (CCN) that contains the latest correction is implemented.

Few Issues that were faced by me during system preparation, with solution.
- Roadmap is not visible when we run Solman_setup
Solution : 1547441 – Flash roadmap for Solution Manager Setup
- Error while calling Diagnostic Agents In step Configure automatically
Solution : Run the SMDAGENT Script
The Script is :
smdsetup sldconf hostname:”” port:”” user:”” pwd:””
After the script, restart the DAA server through Management console.
Note: The System preparation steps should be performed only by the user SOLMAN_ADMIN for the operation to be successful.
- SOAP:1,007 SRT :Unsupported xstream found (“HTTP Code 401: “Unauthorized”)
Also, make sure that the user SAP_J2EE_ADMIN has the following roles present.
– SM_INTERN_WS and
– SMD_ADMIN
