What is private mode? When does user switch to user mode?
Private mode is a mode where the heap data is getting exclusively allocated
by the user and is no more shared across the system. This happens when
your extended memory is exhausted.
What is osp$ mean? What if user is given with this authorisation?
OPS$ is the mechanism the <SID>adm users uses to connect to the
database .
Why do you use DDIC user not SAP* for Support Packs and SPam?
Do _NOT_ use neither DDIC nor SAP* for applying support packages. Copy
DDIC to a separate user and use that user to apply them.
Can you kill a Job?
Yes - SM37 - select - kill
If you have a long running Job, how do you analyse?
Use transaction SE30.
How to uncar car/sar files in a single shot?
on Unix:
$ for i in *.SAR; do SAPCAR -xvf $i; done
When we should use Transactional RFC ?
A "transactional RFC" means, that either both parties agree that the data
was correctly transfered - or not. There is no "half data transfer".
What is the use of Trusted system. I know that there is no need of UID and
PWD to communicate with partner system. In what situation it is good to go
for Trusted system ?
E. g. if you have an R/3 system and a BW system and don't want to
maintain passwords. Same goes for CRM and a lot of other
systems/applications.
Let me know if my understanding below is correct:
1) By default the RFC destination is synchronous
2) Asynchronous RFC is used incase if the system initiated the RFC call no
need to wait for the response before it proceeds to something else.
Yes - that's right.
But keep in mind, that it's not only a technical issue whether to switch to
asynchronous. The application must also be able to handle that correctly.
Which table contains the details related to Q defined in SPAM? Is there a
way to revert back the Q defined? If yes, How?
There is a "delete" button when you define the queue. If you already started
the import it's no more possible since the system will become inconsistent.
What is a developer key? and how to generate a developer key?

key (that you get from http://service.sap.com/licensekey) and the user

name. You need this for each person that will make changes (Dictionary or
programs) in the system.
How to see when were the optimizer stats last time run? We are using
win2k, oracle 9, sapr346c.
Assumed DB=Oracle
Select any table lets take MARA here but you should do the same for MSEG
and few others to see whether the dates match or not.Run the following
command on the command prompt:select last_analyzed from dba_tables where table_name like '%MARA%';
This gives you a straight answer .Else you can always fish around in DB14
for seeing when the optimzer stats were updated.
What is the use of profile paramater ztta/roll_area?
The value specifies the size of the roll area in bytes. The roll area is one of
several memory areas, which satisfies the user requests of user programs.
For technical reasons, however, the first 250 KB or so of a user context are
always stored in the roll area, further data
- up to the roll area limit ztta/roll_first,
- in the extended memory, up to the limit ztta/roll_extension or if extended
memory is exhausted, then
- again in the roll area, until the roll area is full, then
- in the local process area, up to the limit abap/heap_area_dia or
abap/heap_area_total or until the address space or the
swap space is exhausted.
Followed by termination with errors like
STORAGE_PARAMETERS_WRONG_SET an error code, that points to
memory bottleneck Minimum data transfer with context change; however,
the increase helps to avoid problems (address space, swap space,
operating system paging).
*-- Anupam Sharma
What is R/3? and what is basis version?
SAP Basis:
- Provides the runtime environment for all SAP applications
- Optimally embeds the application in the system environment
- Defines a stable architecture framework for system enhancements
- Contains the tools for administering the entire system
- Allows the distribution of resources and system components
- Provides interfaces for decentralized system parts and external products.
An R/3 instance is a group of R/3 services that are started and stopped as
a unit (by an R/3 dispatcher) and have a common instance profile. The
name of an R/3 instance is composed of letters standing for the relevant
services, and an instance number which is unique for each computer. The
services may be D, V, E, B, M, G, or S, which respectively stand for
dialogue, update, enqueue, background, message, gateway, and spool
services.
I would like to know the version or name of SAP that is implemented in real
time?
This is a very generic question and really depends on what you are

systems (CRM, BW etc.)
What is mysap?
It's a term for all the systems that in a contract (e. g. a MySAP business
suite consist of ERP2005, CRM2005, SRM2005).
What is the systems configuration required to implement SAP.. i.e for
production,development and QAS servers the hard disk space, RAM,
Processor
This also depends on what your are implementing, how many users will
work on the system, how many records in what area are created etc.
We need a BIG database system and an even bigger application server for
~ 900 users and 12 languages.
What is ASAP?
It's an old term for an implementation strategy. Blueprint -> prototype ->
goLive (if you want to say it in one sentence).
How should I set priority for Printing say like user, teamlead, project
manager?
There's nothing like "priority" settings for spool processes. Just define more
(profile parameter rdisp/wp_no_spool) processes so people don't need to
wait.
Using Tc SGEN I have generated 74% job and later I have terminated the
job. I wish to start generating from where it stopped I have refreshed but to
no chance nothing was done. How should I further proceed so as to
complete the remaining job..
Start SGEN again and select the same you have selected before. It will
popup and ask if you want to start from scratch or generate the just the
remaining
How can I lock a transaction?
Use transaction SM01.
Look for the transaction you want and then check the Locked box.
Why should I lock a transaction?
Because some transactions are dangerous and a user without the proper
training may accidentally corrupt or destroy the system.
Page 3 of 61
2016/12/05, 7*03 PM
How can I see what users are currently logged on an R/3 system?
Use either transaction SM04 or AL08.
What is the fastest way to log off in SAPGUI?
Type /NEX at the command field.
Notice that this transaction exists without asking for confirmation. Save your
work before using it.
How do I find information about transaction codes?

Run transaction SE93 to create, edit or display transactions.
How do I check for errors in R/3?
Run transaction SM21 for read the System Log.
How do I logon to a SAPServX FTP server?
User = ftp; password = ftp.
Do I always have to use the new visual design in SAPGUI (EnjoySAP)?
No. In fact, you can switch to the SAPGUI light. Simply use the SAP
Configuration program in Control Panel.
How do I log on to SAPNet?
Use transaction OSS1 to log on to SAPNet R/3 FrontEnd. To log on to
SAPNet R/3 Web visit: http://service.sap.com.
Can I copy all users from client to another?
Yes. Use copy profile SAP_USER.
Can I script the starting and stopping of R/3?
Definitely. You can use the SAPSTART, SAPSRVKILL and
SAPNTWAITFORHALT executables.
Where can I get a list of all transaction codes in SAP?
The following tables hold all SAP transactions:
Table TSTC stores all transaction codes and their respective ABAP
program.
Table TSTCT stores the text (or description) for each transaction.
Table THSTC has also documentation for all transaction. It is a copy of
TSTCT.
Table TSTCP stores the possible parameters for each transaction.
Where can I get a list of all tables in SAP?
Table DD02L stores all tables in SAP.
How can I hide a client from the users?
Page 4 of 61
2016/12/05, 7*03 PM
There is no way to actually hide a client but there is a workaround: delete

the entry in table T000 via SCC4. This way, nobody will able to log on to it.
To unhide it, simply re-create the entry via SCC4.
How can I lock a client?
You can use one of these two: 1) delete the entry in table T000 via SCC4; 2)
run tp locksys at the OS level.
How can I determine the size of a client?
You can run a local client copy in test mode.
How do I backup a database?
You can create a maintenance plan or use the backup database SQL
statement in Query Analyzer or OSQL.
Within SAP, you can use DB13.
What is the transaction to access the language utility?
Transaction SMLT takes you to the Language Transport Utility.
How can I see all the available icons in SAP?
Execute transaction BIBS and select Elements -> Icon Overview.
You can use the code that appears on the last column in order to put icons
in system messages (SM02).
ABAP Query does not seem to work, what should I do?
It could be that you need to execute report RSAQUM40 to set the release
flag. See SAP note 92124 for more information.
What happens if I start a dialog instance but the database and SAP services
are down on the central instance?
The SAP_xx and SAPOSCOL services will start.
However, the work processes will end soon after being started.
What happens if I start a dialog instance but only the database services are
up on the central instance?
The SAP services will start and so will the work processes. However,
because the message server is down on the central instance users will get
the message No logon possible (no hardware ID received by message
server) when trying to log on. No user logins will work. The Process List in
the SAP MMC will stay in yellow.
If using Single Sign-On, do the passwords in SAP and Windows have to
match?
No. Only the user IDs must match for single-on to work.
*****Can I import transports between different R/3 releases?
Read the technical and logical problems SAP reports when doing transports
between different R/3 releases.

SAP Notes 126776 and 330267
I lost the password for SAP*. What can I do?

You can delete the record for SAP* in table USR02 as follows:
delete USR02 where BNAME=SAP* and MANDT=XXX
Replace XXX for a valid client number.
Can SAP be installed on FAT or FAT32 partitions?No. SAP needs to be
installed on NTFS partitions only.
How can I quickly check if the passwords for the accounts SAP*, DDIC,
SAPCPIC and EarlyWatch are not the default ones?
Run SE38 and execute report RSUSR003.
Can I copy just data from client to another?
No. There is no copy profile that allows you to copy just data.
For this you need to configure and use ALE or buy a third-party program
that has this type of functionality.
Can Query Analyzer tell me if there is insufficient disk space to restore a
database?
Yes. It will display message (Msg) 3257 indicating that there is not enough
disk space to perform the restore.
Check some questions
1.What is the difference between System Trace, Developer Trace and
System Log?
ST01 - System Trace which will be required when you want to record trace
for system
ST05- Performance Trace (Developer Trace) which is required when any
user
Complaining for a long transaction and you want to record all activity of
Transaction.
SM21- System log is for the recent logs for your CI and application server.
What ever happen in SAP it will write a system log.
System Trace:
If you want to record the internal SAP system activities, use the function
SAP System Trace. Recording the processes in your application server
enables you to monitor the system and facilitates troubleshooting.
Developer Trace:
Developer traces contain technical information for use in the event of
Page 6 of 61
2016/12/05, 7*03 PM
problems with your system. Using the entries in the developer traces
requires a sophisticated knowledge of the host systems in which your SAP
system is running and of the SAP system itself.
System Log:
You can use the log to pinpoint and correct errors occurring in your system
and its environment.
To work with system logs, choose Tools -> Administration from the R/3
initial screen. When the System Administration initial screen appears,
choose Monitoring -> System log. Alternatively, you can choose Test ->
System log from the ABAP/4 Development Workbench initial screen.

2.Incase, My sap system was down (Users are unable to login to sap
system) How to analyze this problem?
If you are not able to connect to the system first of all you should check
network connectivity.
If SAP system is down then Check
1. SAPMMC
2. Logs
3. Databse connection to SAP system (Listener in case of oracle)
4. SapService and Database services.
3.How to import the transport request at operating system Level? When
importing a transport request, what are the common errors you faced?
tp addtobuffer K9######
tp import K9###### Client=###
It is much easier to manage transport requests using Tx STMS rather than

Page 9 of 61
2016/12/05, 7*03 PM
import.
Errors Faced:
TP or R3trans are old then Upgrading them is the only option.
TMSADM related error: change in configuration, RFC not working
Import Queue can't be read: generally because of the services like
SapService or SIDADM not able to read the trans directory.
4.For example, my sap system having patch number was 8.I want to apply
patch 9 and 10.Mistakenly I will apply the patch directly 11 without applying
9 and 10.How sap system will recognize this problem?
If you are applying Patching in SPAM/SAINT- it will not allow you to jump
from 8 to 10.
In case of applying Patching to Java using JSPM, it will allow you to jump to
Higher level without causing any issue.
If you are patching SAP GUI, it will allow to jump.
5.One user unable to execute one t-code, that is authorization object is
missing, How to add this authorization object to user?
SUM53 will show the exact Authorization object missing, SUIM will help you
finding the relevant role having that authorization object. SAP security team
can assign desired role to the user and he will be able to execute Tcode.
6.for example, consider a client 800.This client having 75 users. But 15
users account was locked. I want to unlock this 15 users account at a time.
How to do?
SU10->enter 15 username-unlock (Control F5)
7.what is the use of parameter tab, and personalization tab in user master
record? What is the use of account id in logon tab?
Parameter Tab and personalization used by Security team to provide extra
access.
8.how to change the number of work process at OS level? How to analyze
the status of work process at OS level?
Go to usr\sap\\sys\profile choose DVEGBMS profile(instance profile)and
change no. of work process.
you can check in SAPMMC, status will be shown under abap work process

2016/12/05, 7*03 PM
11.what are the prerequisite for before applying support packs? Shall I apply
sap basis patch to all the system, like BW, ABAP, HR, etc.
Planning should be done, Support packs should be downloaded and
uncared and OCS queue should be uploaded.
Then you need downtime, Lock the users, Define the queue and change
setting according to the need. Better to test run. Then apply SAP Basis and
ABAP packages at first then others!!
12.For example, I want to transfer 50GB of data from DEV to Quality. I am

using client export and import method; can you tell me how many hours
take for client export and import? And also How many hours take for
remote client copy?
12-13 hours approx
Not sure but it depends on system load and network connections!!
13.How to perform a client import and export at OS level?
Through Homogenous System copy.
First of all we will export the client and then we will import it.
14.What is the use of reference and service user in sap?

Refrence user should not be used to login to the system. It is only for
refrence so that new users can be copied from it directly.
Service user is used to allow multiple login from single ID.
By Default- 6 Login per Service User is allowed.
15.For example, I scheduled one ABAP program as a background job, But
it was running 10 days and above. How to analyze this problem?
You can check logs in SM37.
16.How to take a sap backup using BRTOOLS explain the procedure?
When using BRTOOLS, which backup device, you are used (Drive/tape)?
Not done that Yet now. but it is easier to take backup using BRTOOLs as
BR TOOLS are self explainatory.
17.When applying a support pack to sap system. Can you tell me what are
errors you are faced?
ABAP program was syntatically incorrect, update that program doing
manual correction given in SAP NOTE as SAP note can not be applied if
SPAM has got error.
R3trans and TP were old (we should have checked that as prerequisite)
R3trans was waiting for some file but did not get it.
Object Found locked..release them to move SPAM.

What is client 000 in SAP R/3?
Client 000 is defined as the SAP standard and the customer cannot change
it. This client serves as a copy template for the creation of further clients.
What are the different type of work process ?

The following work process in SAP R/3
Dialog (D): each dispatcher needs at least 2 dialog work processes (not
shown above)
Page 51 of 61
2016/12/05, 7*03 PM
Spool (S): at least 1 per R/3 System (more than 1 per dispatcher allowed)
Update (V): at least 1 per R/3 System (more than 1 per dispatcher
allowed)
Background (B): at least 2 per R/3 System (more than 1 per dispatcher
allowed)
Enqueue (E): exactly 1 per R/3 System (only 1 E work process is required
and allowed)
How do you start SAP R/3?
To start R/3, run the shell script startsap from the home directory of user
<sid>adm.
startsap starts the saposcol process, which is the statistics collector for
operating system resource data, if it is not yet running.
startsap calls the script startdb, which starts the database if it is not
already started.
startsap then starts the central instance.
The R/3 System administrator can start additional instances and
application servers. To start the instances independently of the database,
use the script startsap.
startsap has the following options:
startsap r3: Checks if the database is running; if it is, only the instance is
started
startsap db: Starts only the database
startsap all: Default entry; starts both the database and the R/3 instance
In what sequence are profile parameter read?
R/3 processes read the appropriate parameters from a C source in the R/3
kernel
The default profile /usr/sap/<SID>/SYS/profile/DEFAULT.PFL is read;
profile values already defined in the C source are replaced with the values in
the default profile
The instance profile
/usr/sap/<SID>/SYS/profile/<SID>_<instance>_<hostname> is read; profile
values already defined in the default profile or in the C source are replaced
with the values defined in the instance profile
This procedure ensures that system parameter values reflect the instance
profile and the values in the default profile and the C source.
What are the step involved before stopping R/3 system?

Before stopping any R/3 system following steps are basic steps to be
performed.
Before the R/3 System is stopped, the R/3 System administrator should
check the:
Check if any background jobs from any application server are active or
have been triggered externally. Use transaction SM37
Check if the background work process BTC is running in any application
Page 52 of 61
2016/12/05, 7*03 PM
server.
Check if any update records are open when the system is stopped, the
records are rolled back and set to status init. At startup, the records are
processed again.
The administrator must decide whether to interrupt the jobs or wait until
they are finished.
Give system users advance warning of the system shutdown. To create a
system message, you can use transaction SM02.
Before shutting down the system, use transaction SM04 to check whether
users are still logged on, and ask them to log off.
The R/3 System administrator and administrators of external systems
should also inform one another about data transfers between their
respective systems.
How do you check the work process from UNIX?

Use the following commands.
To check all the work processes:
ps -ef | grep <SID> | grep dw
To check the message server:
ps -ef | grep <SID> | grep ms
To check the SAP OS collector:
ps -ef | grep sapos
How do you display the server name?

To display the server name, use transaction SM51. Information about the
process types is also displayed. For further information, select one of the
instances and choose Processes. Alternatively, to display the system
processes, use transaction SM66.
How do you display all active users in your system?

To display the overview of all active users on the instance where you are
logged on, use transaction SM04. For a user overview of the whole system,
call transaction AL08.
Q. What happens to locks when the enqueue server is restarted?

A. If they have not been saved to disk in the backup file, they will be lost.
The locks that are inherited by the update task when COMMIT WORK is
executed after CALL FUNCTION .. IN UPDATE TASK are saved to the disk.
The locks are saved to disk when the update request becomes valid, that is,
with the COMMIT WORK. Each time the enqueue server is restarted, the
lock entries saved on the disk are reloaded to the lock table. A lock is saved
to disk at the point at which the backup flag is set.
Page 53 of 61
2016/12/05, 7*03 PM
Q. The enqueue server is a single-point-of-failure in the SAP System. Can I

guarantee high availability for the Enqueue Server?
A. To guarantee this you must use the standalone Enqueue Server with the
Replication Server. This is described in the documentation Standalone
Enqueue Server.
SAP note 524816 contains the prerequisites that must be fulfilled for using
the standalone Enqueue Servers with the Replication Server.
Q. Where is the lock table stored?

A. In the main memory (shared memory) of the enqueue server. All work
processes on the enqueue server has access to the table. External
application servers execute their lock operations in the enqueue process on
the enqueue server. Communication in this case takes place via the relevant
dispatchers and the message server.
Q. Can locks exist directly after startup?

A. Yes, the saved locks, which were inherited by the update task, are
reloaded to the lock table during startup (see first question).
Q. How fast are lock operations?

A. In work processes on the enqueue server, a few 100 microseconds. In
work processes of external application servers you have to include network
communications and process changes. Depending on CPU and network
load this amounts to a few milliseconds.
Q. What should I do first if a problem arises?

A. Use the diagnosis functions:
sm12 Extras Diagnosis and then
sm12 Extras Diagnosis in update
If a problem is reported, back up the trace files dev_w*, dev_disp, dev_eq*
and check the Syslog.
Q. The following message is displayed in the diagnosis details in SM12:
Lock management operation mode
Internal lock management in same process
What does this message mean and what are the other options?
A. "Internal lock management in same work process" in the diagnosis
function means that you are logged onto the enqueue server and your work
process can access the lock table straight away. You do not have to
delegate enqueue requests to an enqueue process on a remote enqueue
server. If you are logged onto an application server that is not an enqueue
Page 54 of 61
2016/12/05, 7*03 PM
server, the diagnosis function will provide you with the name of the enqueue
server.
Each SAP System has exactly one application server that functions as an
enqueue server. This enqueue server maintains the lock table, which is
located in a shared memory segment. All of the work processes on the
enqueue server can access the lock table. All work processes on other
application servers delegate their enqueue requests to a special enqueue
work process on the enqueue server.
This procedure is configured automatically. The parameter line
"rdisp/enqname =<application server name>" in the default profile
DEFAULT.PFL indicates which application server is currently acting as the
enqueue server. When an application server detects that its name matches
the name of the enqueue server, it creates the lock table and all of its work
processes process enqueue requests inline. If an application server detects
that its name does not match the name of the enqueue server, it sends all
enqueue requests to the enqueue server.
Work processes of the type "enqueue" guarantee that incoming requests
are processed immediately. One enqueue process is usually sufficient. In
very large SAP Systems with many application servers, a second process
can be beneficial. However, it is not expedient to define more than two
enqueue processes. If the transaction SM50 -> [CPU] shows that only the
first enqueue process is being used, the bottleneck is due to something
else.
Q.Why is an enqueue work process required in a central system? Don't all

work processes have the same access to the shared memory and thus to
the lock table?
A. Although the enqueue process is not used in a central system, it does
not do any harm. Since almost all customers install an application server
sooner or later, problems will inevitably arise if the enqueue process is
missing. For this reason, the enqueue diagnosis function will output an error
if an enqueue process has not been configured.
Q. Are the locks in the lock table also set at the database level? If not,
database functions could be used to process objects locked in the SAP
system.
A. Locks are not set on the database. The lock table is stored in the main
memory of the enqueue server.
Q. Is a lock table built if an enqueue work process is not started on the

enqueue server in the instance profile?
A. Yes, because the work processes on the enqueue server use the lock
table directly, and not via the enqueue process. The latter is only responsible
for lock requests from external application servers.
Page 55 of 61
2016/12/05, 7*03 PM
Q.How can I find out who is currently holding the ungranted lock? In other
words, how can check the program after an ENQUEUE to determine which
use is currently holding the lock so that I can let him or her know?
A. When the ENQUEUE_... function module is returned, the name of the
lock owner is listed in SY-MSGV1.
Q. Can I use special characters in my lock argument (especially the at sign

(@))?
A. The at symbol is used as a wildcard in SAP locks (enqueues). In other
words, it can stand for any other character during collision checks. For
example, the parameter value 12345@ locks the quantities 123450 to
123459, 12345a to 12345z, and 12345A to 12345Z, and all other values
with any special character in the 6th character position.
This is described in detail in the section Lock Collisions.
In order to prevent the wildcard mechanism from being activated in SAP
locks when it is not required, you need to ensure when enqueue function
modules are called that key value parameters do not contain any wildcard
characters.
If key values that you want to use to lock individual entities do contain
wildcard characters, you have to replace the wildcards with different
characters before the enqueue is called.
Q. With a single-process system as an enqueue server, we have reached X

SD Benchmark users. Can this number be increased by using a
multiprocessor system (message server on the same machine as the
enqueue server)? Can we assume that scaling is linear (number of CPUs * X
SD users)? How many processes are advisable if message servers,
dispatchers, one dialog, and two enqueue processes are to run on the
system?
A. A significant increase in the enqueue server throughput can be expected
by using several processors. The CPU load on the enqueue server is
distributed relatively evenly between message server, dispatchers, and
enqueue work processes, which means that up to 3 processors can be
occupied simultaneously. Dispatchers and message server represent the
bottleneck with the enqueue. Linear scaling can be expected for up to 3
processors, even if lock requests are so frequent that message server,
dispatchers, and work processes are occupied simultaneously. Due to
asynchronous system processes (for example, syncer), using more
processors can further enhance throughput.
Q. The Syslog often contains messages such as "Enqueue: total wait time
during locking: 2500 seconds". How should I analyze this problem? Or is
the entry not critical? (There are no records of terminations or timeouts.)
Page 56 of 61
2016/12/05, 7*03 PM
A. The message is output for information purposes only but may indicate
parallel processing errors with ABAP programs. The specified wait time is
the time that has elapsed since startup due to the use of the WAIT
parameter when the enqueue function module was called.
The WAIT parameter enables a lock attempt to be repeated a number of
times, for example, so that the update task does not have to be cancelled
when a lock is set temporarily by other programs. The work process
remains busy between the lock attempts.
Q. User cannot connect to SAP
A. Check SAP logon settings, ping the host, check message server, check
dispatcher, etc
Q. User cannot print

A. See if the user has proper authoriztion. check SAP user setup, check
SPAD, check spools, check unix queue or print queue at the os level, etc
