Our dev environment is an XI 3.1 system which is an upgraded copy of our XIr2 live environment. The dev environment also has Data Services 3.2 installed (we’ve got DS 3.2 on the 3.1 CMS at the advice of SAP - details in THIS TOPIC).
I’d like to create a metadata integrator and run it against my XIr2 environment. The documentation seems to suggest that this should be possible, but I can’t successfully create the integrator: I get a communication error when trying to connect to the XIr2 CMS (FWM 01009).
I know that the CMS is accessible from the server. I can ping the XIr2 host from the XI3.1 system; I can log into the XIr2 CMC from the XI3.1 system etc. Importantly (?) though - if I try to launch XI3.1 Designer against the XIr2 CMS, I get an error telling me I need to upgrade the repo first (which is what I’d expect when trying to use a new version of Designer against an old repo). I’m wondering if it’s actually possible to run a DS 3.2 metadata integrator against an XIr2 repo after all? Can anyone confirm whether this is possible?
Cheers!
