Curiosity about the level of load on SAP ERP systems

Hello all,
In my company, I'm in charge of the SAP capacity planning and so, every month, I fill several Excel sheets to follow the load of our systems.
I am curious to know if our load is similar to that of other SAP ERP customers.
I would be happy if some of you would like to post their monthly load statistics for R/3 or ECC systems.
Of course, I begin :
Production R/3 4.7 ext2 system, main modules SD and MM.
460 declared users, average 110 concurrent users
1 Win 2003 MSCS itanium cluster with 5 win 2000 32 bit app servers.
stats for November :
Thousands of steps
TOTAL :            22 500
Dialog :                 797
Background :        459
RFC :                4 439
UPD and UP2 : 14 418
HTTP :                  523
Average dialog step response time : 548 ms
Database size : 1.1 To
The load evolution of the system is
always increasing
stable for dialog steps (sapgui)
more and more external RFC calls
more and more web services calls
The system is less and less a transactional system and more and more a backoffice system executing services calls.
Thanks to all who will be interested to share this load information.
Regards,
Olivier

We are a manufacturing company and we have a lot of batch processing (MRP et al).
Yes - the systems are pretty big
DB-Server/CI: 4 x DualCore Opteron - 48 GB Memory (ENQ, BTC)
AppServer: 4 x Opteron 48 GB Memory
From a technical point of view we wouldn´t need the application server, the DB server could handle that load too.
The main requirement we have is, that the avg. reponse time in VA01 for each line item is below 450 ms everywhere on the world (China, Poland, Russia) on those remote locations - the system is in Germany - so we are trying to make sure, that the main time consumed on the box itself is rather small because of not always reliant network connections to the east part of the world (actually VPN). 1/3 - 1/2 of the actual avg. reponse time is consumed for network transmission.
On top of that we have about 550 printers defined because we print everything, that is related to the business process out of this SAP system which will also consume quite a bit of network speed/bandwith.
Our users are pretty much "regaled" with response time, on days, where the avg. time is increasing 100 ms, we get a LOT of calls because of a slow system. The benchmark assumed 2 seconds are unacceptable for our users thus it may appear, that the boxes are oversized but we need that power to ensure the speed.

How to analyse the main memory usage in SAP ERP systems?

Dear expert,
I'm doing a research work about analysing the main memory usage in SAP ERP systems.
I would like to find out what is load in buffers and when. That means, which process have the control of these memories and which are always performing something, tables loaded, and so on. Becuase I tried to isolate the space needed by a simple webservice call (create one material) in my test system, but even after a $SYN there are something stored in the buffers. I use a BAPI to avoid the execution of the SAPGUI and its repercussion in the system (I know the BAPI called uses resources too, but when I run this BAPI to get the statistics, it's like ST02, I get different values). Could someone help me or recommend something specific to read? Thanks a lot in advance.

Dear expert,
Thanks a lot for your answer. The point is now that I want to isolate the memory used by a webservice that I call, I mean, I would like to know how many memory is this webservice using in each buffer. And could you tell me where could I read something about the order that things happen in SAP System when a webservice is called (always memory related), that's which steps are done to store data in buffers and so on. Thanks in advance.

What is the difference between mySAP2004 and SAP ERP 2004?

Hi,
Can anybody tell me what is the difference between mySAP2004 and SAP ERP 2004?
If someone has the document, then please mail me at [email protected]
With Regards
tiffny

Hi Tiffny,
actually I don't see a difference as "mySAP2004" is not an official name for anything
There is "mySAP ERP 2004" which is the marketing name for a bunch of functionality provided by several different bits of software components.

Where i can find the deleted transport request in SAP development system?

where i can find the deleted transport request in SAP development system?

Hi,
When you delete the transport request from SE10 , you can not find the request entry from E070 and E071.
and only local change request are possible to delete from SE10 /SE09
if you are try to delete the change request with target system then it's gives you the error that request cannot be deleted because it contains locked objects.
It's not possible to find out the deleted request from SE10.

Need suggestion on importing BC SET : UKM_DCD_CUST in SAP ERP system

Dear Gurus,
Client wants me to import BC SET : UKM_DCD_CUST into SAP ERP system. I have found BC SET : UKM_DCD_CUST in T code SCPR20.
I have read most of the SCN discussion and got two way to import BC SET into ERP system as given below. But I need the appropriate way to do this. Can any one help me in this?
1. SCPR20 -> Activate BC set -> create customizing request to import into another system as per link :Business Configuration Sets (BC Sets) and their use - Basis Corner - SCN Wiki
2. Create TR in SE01 in 000 and import into required client as per below proc:
Usual procedure
1) BC SETS will be attached to SAP note usually. Download it and unzip it , you will get a *.bcs file
2) Call transaction SCPR20  BC set --> Upload In the dialog box that then appears, specify the files that you unpacked
Import the set BC into a package that you have defined. activate it with the "Expert mode"
3) You will also get a *.txt file with prog id , obj etc entries , then you have to go to SE09 and create a transport request in the source client of your Solution Manager system (client 000). Open the *.txt and copy the entries it contains into the transport request. Use transaction SCC1 to import the data in your Solution Manager client(s)
Thanks,
Anand Aseri

2). Client copies bring the Customization data but not WorkBench . So you might have to do transport of copies from Old Dev to >New Dev.
So you are saying that the system copy from Production will not bring Workbench data and I need to bring Workbench data by transports?
*system copy from Production will bring Workbench data also, but when you do client copy from development system again on top of client which already has production customization, data and workbench requests, Production customization and data will be overwritten from development customization and data (it depends on the profile you choose for the client copy) *
However Development Workbench requests are more and also has ongoing development work which might not be available in production client and those (Ongoing development workbench requests) you need to import in new system as transport of copies after the client copy
3). If you do system copy from Production and do client copy from dev...obviously Prod customization will be overwritten with Dev rite ?
That's what I expect to happen,
Ok, however, You might need to get Development Work too from the old dev system and don't forget about setting up of partner profiles in WE20.
It's just a thought , Do you have testing client in Dev, if not,You can leave the production client in development system and use it as testing client.
Create new client which is client copy of Old Dev and import WorkBench requests *
Thanks,
Arjun

PI Integration between SAP ERP system and Cloud for Customer

Hi,
We have set up integration between Cloud for Customer tenant and our SAP ERP system via PI.
For performing initial load, when we try to activate change pointers for Message types in the SALE transaction, we don't find the MATMAS_CFS and DEBMAS_CFS in the ERP system(IDES ECC 6.0 EhP6).
CODERINT 600(SP1 &2) are installed and BC set COD_BYD_ERP_INT is activated in the system.
Could anyone let us know what are we missing here, so that we can get the message types.
Also we tried using Message type MATMAS for sending a message from ERP to Cloud for Customer. In PI message monitoring, the status shows as 'Processed successfully', however we do not find the message in Business Communication Monitoring in the Cloud system. neither do we see the Business Object created for that Material master.
Please let me know how to debug such a scenario.

Generate PI alerts for Runtime exceptions in other SAP ERP system

Hi All
We usually get alerts in PI Alert inbox.
For some specific interfaces, we will need to raise an alert to other SAP ERP system user.
Is there anyway generating this kind of exception?
Thanks
Sai
Edited by: Sai Krishna on Jun 30, 2008 3:08 PM

Hi Sai,
There are 3 ways you can do this.
1) Like VJ said "sending an Email using mail adapter from with in a BPM" Which will be a little complex and preformance wise may be slow but sounds neat .
2) Use the Work Flow WS71000002 ( AlertSendWf ) to capture and trigger a RFC or a Mail to the concern system
For this you will require the services of a Workflow guy; but this will be fast and recommended if the error are being caught in a SAP to SAP landscape
3) You can use this link to generate a group email this is what I have implemented in our landscape

Know more detail about the Remote Support Platform for SAP Business One ?

SAP Business One 9.1 is about to release this year and we can see in the feature enhancements that a significant update is planned in the Remote Support Platform for SAP Business One, more commonly known as RSP. Let’s have a quick look what update is planned for RSP in version 9.1:
Enhancements planned in Remote Support Platform for SAP Business One 9.1
RSP is planned to support both SAP Business One on Microsoft SQL Server as well as SAP Business One on HANA Database
RSP Processes and Reports adapted to SAP HANA Database
With this plan RSP will help in the areas of Download, Installation, Go-Live Check, Monitoring, Upgrade and Support for SAP Business One both   on SQL Server and HANA.
But like me (non-SAP B1 Consultant) many of you have the question what is RSP and how it helps in support? Here I have tried to gather all information.
What is Remote Support Platform for SAP Business One?
The remote support platform for SAP Business One is designed to protect a SAP Business One installation by providing automated and remote support in a high-volume business.
The platform monitors the entire SAP Business One environment. By significantly reducing the time between the appearance, identification, and resolution of issues, the remote support platform for SAP Business One minimizes the impact on customer databases and processes.
Some Key Features of Remote Support Platform:
Showing alerts to SAP B1 Admin about the events which require their attention, such as low disk space, database backups, etc.
Incident Reports against the issues identified which require attention of SAP Support
Company Database Backup and Restore options
Regular fixes of Company Database inconsistencies
Check, Download and Install regular updates in SAP Business One
Upload Logs and required files to SAP Support or to Partner Support on regular basis
Some details about RSP Backup Management
Schedule daily, weekly, and monthly backups
Perform differential and full database backups
Back up transaction logs
Back up files to shared folders on a network
System Status Report through RSP
From June 1st 2013, it will be mandatory to install, configure and upload the System Status Report (SSR) from Remote Support Platform (RSP) for SAP Business One in order to receive support for messages of a technical nature (upgrades, performance & crashes, etc).
Database uploads only via RSP
From June 1st 2013 SAP Business One Support will only accept database uploads to SAP via remote support platform for SAP Business One. In certain exceptional circumstances STFP may be used but this will constitute a minority of cases.
Microsoft Windows PowerShell Scripting
In the remote support platform studio, you can create tasks using Microsoft Windows PowerShell scripting. PowerShell enables you to perform remote administrative tasks on customers’ Microsoft Windows operating systems, by providing full access to Component Object Model (COM) and Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI).Some Network Prerequisite for RSP
To achieve the internet connection test, you must allow port 80 for the RSP external communication
Disabling antivirus firewall or add the RSP to the trusted zone of the antivirus
Set the correct proxy
Disabling Windows firewall in the TP_link Wireless Configuration Utility

Illustrator CS2 crashes at launch about the time fonts load

I can not get illustrator CS2 to launch. Watching the splash screen/loader screen - illustrator seems to crash when loading the fonts. It isnt one font inparticular.
I have reinstalled the application and still cant get it to run.

It's grayed out because you need to change the
owner.
For this you'll need the Admin password for your
computer.
Click on the little padlock and change the owner to
your account. The group can be Admin.
From here, set "Other" to read & Write.
Apply to all enclosed items.
Before anyone trys to yell saying, "That's a huge
application security risk" we are trying to figure
this out without demolishing what the user has so
far. If this is successful, we can always go back and
tighten things back up.
Not working. I am thinking my font issue is not resolved. It is still quitting at the loading of fonts. I did get one error saying there was an error loading plug ins.- I have checked all my other applications and they are working- Quark, Photoshop, Dreamweaver, Flash, Acrobat..
I am not on a network- this is a stand alone computer.
When I ran verify disk an error came up the said (in red) invaild file name..

A question about the SharePoint services load balancer

Let's consider a farm with one WFE and two app servers, A and B. Both app servers are running the Managed Metadata Service (MMS).
User requests a page from the WFE, which talks to the database server. The operation needs information from the MMS, so the WFE requests information from the round robin load balancer for SharePoint web services. Let's say server A is down.
Here's my question - what happens next?
a) The round robin load balancer tells the WFE the MMS is on servers A & B. The WFE tries server A, fails, and returns a failure.
b) The round robin returns servers A & B. The WFE tries server A, which fails. The WFE then tries server B.
c) The round robin returns either A or B, depending on which is next in rotation. The WFE tries the server returned. If the server returned is A, the WFE returns a failure.
d) The round robin returns either A or B, depending on which is next in rotation. The WFE tries the server returned. If the server returned is A, the WFE queries the round robin service again.
e) The round robin knows server A is down, returns only server B to the WFE.

Business Intelligence Solutions

When a Service Application is down, the application load balancer removes that endpoint from the load balancer. When it becomes available again, it adds it back. This way the WFE would just contact the MMS endpoint that was available, not try and timeout
against an unavailable endpoint.

Integrate the Org structure and employees SAP HR system to CRM via ALE

Hi All,
We want to integrate the organization structure and employees from mySAP HR system to mySAP CRM system. We are also aware that the same can be achieved through ALE Interface between both these systems.
In addition to the HR Organization Structure from HR system, can we also bring over the Sales Organization Structure from R/3 using transaction CRMC_R3_ORG_GENERATE?
1) Can someone , please let us the possible challenges which might occur when we download HR Org structure from SAP HR to SAP CRM.?
2) What is the implication of maintaining an HR org structure and CRM Sales Org structure within the SAP CRM 52 system?
3) Any _precautions) should we take before doing the download via ALE??
Please get back, suitable points will be awarded.
Regards
Ritvij

Hi Ritvij,
Couple of things that spring to mind are:
1) When you do the initial data load (PFAL) try to ensure that no one is amending the Org structure as Objects can be locked and therefore not transferred. (on one of our test loads the top level was locked and therfore all subsequent levels were just transfered and we didn't have a top level)
2) Keep the 'forms of address' in CRM the same as the R/3 ones
3) Keep the same Employee and Org Unit IDs but prefix with (for exmaple) EM and OU in CRM. (Through the HR integration config in CRM). This may also (apparantley) aid you if set up something like an Employee interaction centre in the future.
I will update when other stuff springs to mind.
Cheers

FICA -IDOC for posting the billing data from NON-SAP ISU system

Hi,
Kindly note we are implementing NON-SAP ISU with SAP FICA for the finance implementation. In this context, we ahve identified BAPI for BP and CA. We have decided to go for transaction posting through the transaction FPE1. For this, we are looking for the transaction data IDOC which is CTRACDOCUMENT_ACCOUNT (FICA Posting) in the WEDI. But it seems that it is not yet released. Can anybody help me out for this to either identify the equivalent IDOC or other method to post the data from Banner system (NON-SAP ISU ) system. We are presently not implmenting billing system in SAP ISU, but only FI system

Hi,
you can create the same...
but normal practice what we do is create swc for each system so that it is easy to maintain and easy to extend in the future..
or else follow some conventions if you are just starting the things..
