I can see a SYSFAIL message in the job log, but I can't understand what it means?

what is the context?
I loaded data from R/3 to the ODS succesfully. Now, I want to pass the data from the ODS to an Infocube, so, I selected "Update ODS Data in Dta Target", and then I selected "Initial Update". Once in the Scheduler I check there was no prior init load. The only available "Processing" option is "Data Target Only", so I can't choose "PSA only". I check the Update Mode is Initialize Delta Process (grey), and I choose "Start later in background", with immediate start.
There is 140,000 records in the ODS.
The Update rule does nothing but passing the data up to the cube.
what is the sympthom?
Once the load is running, I can see the process working with SM50.
I check the monitor and the data is been read and written into the infocube, but the process is really slow.
After some time the monitor shows no changes, and the job log shows one or more messages like:
tRFC: Data package = 000003, TID = AC1403113BE243F0F3FE0009, duration = 00:10:18, ARFCSTATE = SYSFAIL
and some time later the monitor goes red by time out.
that's what is going on.

How to read Skype connection logs (.log files in /...

Hi all,
A funny problem but really important - please help!
I set up logging to find out causes of some tech problems occuring during my calls, as it described here: https://support.skype.com/en/faq/FA12321/how-do-i-create-log-files
So, I get now /Logs folder with .log files.
But they are not text files and I don't know what this format is and what tool can read them(
Skype tech support doesn't know as well. Please help, who knows, how to read these .log files?
Thanks!
ps my OS is Ubuntu Linux

It's somewhat odd that the Skype tech support staffer you spoke with doesn't know what to do with the logs, as the instructions you posted say to place them in a ZIP file and sent it to them. Since the log files I observed start with 'BLOGBEGIN,' there must be software to parse the file. Also...you never described the tech problems during calls which prompted you to enable logging; and if Skype Support suggested it (which seems doubtful, given they didn't know what to do with the files). Perhaps you can provide a description of the issue?

How to write in job log

Hello. I want to write certain information in a background job log of my ABAP. Because the job last several hours, I need to inform the user the step the job is in.
Does anyone know how to do that?
TIA

This is weird. With your solution the Job log registers an event without description.
Example:
11.03.2006 23:09:06 Job started
11.03.2006 23:09:06 Step 001 started (program XXXX, variant &0000000000000, user name xxxx)
11.03.2006 23:09:06
11.03.2006 23:09:10
11.03.2006 23:09:13

How to read the BDB log ... and other questions

I am using a bdb database interface in the application openldap. When the bdb database there is established it creates, in addition to the data storage diles, a log file (log.0000000001). "file log.0000000001" reports that to be a binary file. How does one read that log?
I have asked this question on the openldap forum and was advised it can be read using tools provided by Oracle to support Berkeley DB, and was furhter advised to go the the Oracle Berkeley DB site. Well, I have done that ... looked around for evidence of any such "tools", but have found nothing.
Also, was advised there (in the openldap forum) that having that log file in the same directory with the data files is not a good idea, that it should be on a different spindle for performance purposes. I have looked at the BDB reference manual on line here but find no configuration options to move that log file to a different location.
Help? Thanks.

Hi Robert,
The information about setting log directories can be found here:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/berkeley-db/db/api_c/env_set_lg_dir.html
General information about log files that you may want to read about:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/berkeley-db/db/gsg_txn/C/index.html
You can use db_printlog to display the log files:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/berkeley-db/db/utility/db_printlog.html
The above link will also point you to a place to review the output. The db_printlog utility should be installed as part of your distribution.

How to view Oracle job logs

Oracle 10g:
I have following job:
procedure create_or_replace_job as
begin
begin
dbms_scheduler.drop_job(job_name => merge_job_name);
exception
when others then
/* ignore */
commit;
end;
dbms_scheduler.create_job(job_name => merge_job_name,
job_type => 'STORED_PROCEDURE',
job_action => merge_proc_name,
start_date => to_timestamp('01-Jan-1970 ' || merge_job_time,
'DD-Mon-RRRR HH24:MI:SS'),
repeat_interval => 'FREQ = DAILY; INTERVAL = 1');
commit;
end;
But I want to see when job ran and if there were any errors.

I am looking at how long it took for "GATHER_STATS_JOB" to run also when it started and when it ended. But none of the views that I queried give me that detail. I tried:

My jobs end up "cancelled". And I can't read the job log.

Problem:
User runs program "zmakechild" and this creates 4 batch jobs to
start immediately with job names child1 to child4. But, each time
only one job is completed and other 3 cancel. Examining batch
process logs show deadlock on table TST01.
SM21 shows following error:
Database error: TemSe->XRTAB(3)->1 for table TST01 key [850]JOBLGX041944
Solution:
TST01 did not have a primary index at the database level. PSS created one and it worked.

How to send a job log/Spool once the job completed in an other Jobchain

I have a Jobchain which raises events when Job goes to status error.
After that a job starts which sends a mail. In this Job I have the parameter:
raising_job_id:
=waitEvents.NSN_JOB_ON_ERRORO.raiserJobId so I can pass the Job ID and send it in the mail.
But how can I also pass the Joblog of the errorjob to the sending mailjob ?
relative_job_id and loblog parameters from system_mail_send job does not work because it's not in the sam Jobchain.
Do I have to use some pre/post running actions ?
I'm not familiar with Java programming
Br
Uwe

Hello,
Then this is your lucky day! Since you already have enough knowledge to get the job id from the raiser event you are already half way there! This is because the System_Mail_Send job also understands an arbitrary job id as a RelativeJob. So if you pass the found job id into the RelativeJob parameter and * into the JobFile parameter all output files from the failed job will be send out.

Reading and writing a JOB LOG

Hi
How do we read the job log?
How do we display it?
Regards
Nishant

HI
GOOD
GO THROUGH THIS
Use
All message types issued by a program running in the background are stored in a job log, which you can display either to obtain information on a prematurely terminated program or to complete a detailed investigation of a particular background processing run. A separate log file is created for each job.
Deleting Log Files
You should never delete log files directly. If you want to clear the log directory, you must delete the jobs to which the logs belong. In the process, the logs are also deleted.
Job logs are held in the TemSe temporary sequential objects storage facility. TemSe is configured to always store job logs as operating system files in the shared SAP directories. If you delete log files directly at the operating system level, you create inconsistencies in the TemSe database, which you'll then need to eliminate with the Consistency check function in Transaction SP12.
Log Messages
Log messages are generally output using ABAP keyword MESSAGE. With the exception of ABAP breakpoint statistics, no other data is normally output to the job log.
ABAP Short Dumps
If an ABAP program generated a dump when it terminated abnormally, you can display the dump by clicking on the Abend message.
Batch Input Messages
Messages output during batch input sessions are not recorded in the job log. These messages are output only to the batch input system.
Procedure
       1.      Go to Select Background Jobs using Transaction SM37 or by choosing CCMS ® Jobs ® Maintenance.
       2.      Select the jobs you want to review in the job log by specifying conditions that identify the job or jobs, including job name, user name, job status, start condition, or contents of a job step. Execute this selection to see a list of jobs that match these criteria.
       3.      In the Job overview screen, select your desired job and choose Job log.
       4.      In the Job Log Entries for ).
       6.      For further information about a particular item in the job log, select the line and choose Long text. The resulting help screen can include further information about diagnosing the message, the systems response to the message, and how the user should follow up.

Error reading job logs of Apps server from Central Instance

Dear Gurus,
We have newly installed system with one CI ( cluster environment) and 2 application Instances.
Systems are recently installed by other team. I am looking into support part after handover.
We have noticed below error while reading failed background job logs from our CI. If suppose any job is failing, we can read respective job log from that application instance but it throws error while reading job log from CI to either of application instance.
I checked /sapmnt/SID/global is shared among all 3 servers and i am successfully able to "Touch a" from applications instances.
Even though i have given "777" permissions to all folders like /sapmnt/SID , /sapmnt/SID/global , /sapmnt/SID/global/400JOB*
I am not able to read job log from CI , for same failed job I can read job log from respective application instance.
Error log :
Error reading job log JOBLGX00080700X39290
Message no. BT167
Diagnosis
The background processing system was unable to read the job log named in the message.
This message suggests that there is a problem with the TEMSE storage system of the SAP system. The TEMSE storage system is a repository for temporary objects, such as job logs and spool requests. Job logs are always stored in the TEMSE as operating system files.
This error occurs if the TEMSE system is not able to find or access the file that contains the text of the job log that you requested. Possible causes for the loss or unavailability of the job log include the following:
Someone deleted the required TEMSE file (from the operating system, not from within the SAP system).
A CRON (or equivalent scheduler) job has deleted the TEMSE file.
The file system in which the TEMSE stores its files is not mounted or is not accessible (NFS problem, disk failure, or similar problem).
The TEMSE reorganize or consistency check functions were used within the SAP system and deleted the job log.
SM21 logs :
Error 2 for write/read access to a file. File = /usr/sap/SID/SYS/global
BP_JOBLOG_SHOW: Failed to display jobs. Reason:
> Error reading job log JOBLGX00080700X39290
Strange this is I can check failed job log on one application instance frfom other application instance but not from CI.
Kindly throw some lights where to check.
Regards,

Hi Shravan,
I guess it is related to permission to /sapmnt/SID/global folder. Please ensure owner is sidadm:sapsys in all the systems viz CI, App servers etc.
Check the mounting options are correctly set with read/write mode.
Hope this helps.

Deepak Kori

Message with IDOC number, created by LSMW, missing in job log in SM37

Hi gurus,
We have a temporary interface which uses LSMW to create IDOCs and update in SAP. It's used for materials, BOMs and document info records. In LSMW we have defined standard message types MATMAS_BAPI, BOMMAT and DOCUMENT_LOAD for the IDOCs. All these have the same problem.
A background job runs and starts LSMW. In the job log in SM37 I want to see which IDOCs were created. For some reason this is different in my development system and my test system, and as far as I know all settings should be the same. In the test system LSMW creates more message lines in the job log, than it does in the dev system. Message number E0-097 is "IDOC XXXX added", and this is missing in the dev system.
This is what it looks like in the dev system:
Data transfer started for object 'MATMAS' (project 'X', subobject 'Y')             /SAPDMC/LSMW   501    I
Import program executed successfully                                                             /SAPDMC/LSMW   509    I
File 'XXX.lsmw.read' exists                                                                               /SAPDMC/LSMW   502    I

Data transfer terminated for object 'MATMAS' (project 'X', subproject 'Y')       /SAPDMC/LSMW 516    I
And this is what it looks like in the test system. More information, which is exactly what I want in dev system too:
Data transfer started for object 'MATMAS' (project 'X', subobject 'Y')             /SAPDMC/LSMW   501    I
Import program executed successfully                                                             /SAPDMC/LSMW 509    I

File 'XXX.lsmw.conv' exists                                                                              /SAPDMC/LSMW   502   I
IDoc '0000000002489289' added                                                                      E0                         097   S
File 'XXX.lsmw.conv' transferred for IDoc generation                                      /SAPDMC/LSMW   812   I
Data transfer terminated for object 'MATMAS' (project 'X', subproject 'Y')      /SAPDMC/LSMW   516   I
In both cases the IDOC is created and update works fine.
My only issue is that I can't see the IDOC number in the dev system. I know I can get the IDOC number in WE02, but in this case we have program logic which reads the job log to be able to check IDOC status before sending OK message back to the other side of the interface.
I hope any of you can have an idea how I can update somewhere to get message E0-097 with IDOC number into the log.

Hi Arun,
If you want to show your messages in the job log you have to use the MESSAGE statement. In case you use WRITE statements an output list be created which can be found in the spool (there is an icon to go to the spool directly).
