GRC 10 want to extend our ruleset for use by another connector This question is Assumed Answered.

Heraleen Bowers Mar 5, 2012 11:19 PM Hello. We migrated our RAR ruleset from 5.3 to 10.0 and it is working for on o ur original connector (our SBX). Now we would like to use that same ruleset for a new connector (our QAS). I do not see a way to do any mass maintenance for this. There is a mass maintance for functions where I can add a new system, but it appears I have to do it one function at a time. Is there a better way? I th ought about transforming my original export files to modify the connector name, but wasn't sure if that would work since connector isn't one of the fields offer ed for transformation. Would appreciate any suggestions from the experts!

Having said that, why don't you create a Logical System "Non-Prod" and assign al l your non-prod systems against that Logical connector and then just upload the ruleset against that Logical Connector. This will save database space for the ge nerated rules. Report Abuse Like (0)

As for your other suggestion, I d o not see an option to "download SOD rules" offered in SPRO -- only "upload SOD rules". Hmm. I found on Idea Please this has been logged as an enhancement: https://cw.sdn.sap.com/cw/ideas/4448 In the meantime I figured out how to load. I took the export files created in 5. 3 and manually modified (witha global replace in Notepad) the connector then ran GRAC_DATA_MIGRATION for only the FUNCTION_ACTIONdata.dat and FUNCTIONAL_PERMISS IONdata.dat (append mode selected). Then I generated the ruleset, and that seem ed to do the trick. Thanks for your input!

Refer to SAP note https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/1610073 to fix this issue.
