Solution, LCGs, Branches & Sites

A colleague scopes a new solution to cover only the SAP ABAP production systems. Why is that scope wrong?

A customer runs separate production systems in three countries and wants them all under one solution. Sites or one-solution-per-country — which, and why?

On 7.0/7.1 you maintained many logical components just to handle mixed software versions. What does 7.2's LCG change about that, and why does it matter for EarlyWatch/BPMon/ChaRM?

You're trying to assign a parent branch to the production branch and the system won't let you. Is this a config problem to fix, or expected?

What do you lose by splitting your landscape across several solutions instead of one all-in-one solution?

In SOLADM, which tab decides whether a system is under ChaRM control, and what's the unit you actually toggle there?

You want changes to production documentation to require a change request first. Which branch gives you that gate, and what else must be in place?

After you activate sites in a solution, where does the site-to-system mapping actually get stored — and what would be the wrong way to model it?

A teammate calls a Solution Manager branch "a copy of the system." What is a branch actually, and which two does 7.2 give you out of the box?

Migrating from the old logical-component model, how many LCGs should each major software component have in 7.2 — and what's the common over-build mistake?

On a fresh SolMan, why can't you just start configuring process documentation or BPMon before anything else?

Beyond the two default branches, what does a typical four-branch solution add, and what are those two extras for?

When building BPMon configuration, why use a dedicated operation branch instead of working directly in production — and what's the final step people forget?

You created a solution in SOLADM and want to add a system, but it won't join. What prerequisite is almost certainly missing?

Someone says Solution Documentation only covers SAP processes. What's the scope it's actually the single source of truth for, and how is it expressed?
