What could be the reason that the Job ends immediately with no significant warnings or error in the log?

Hi Manoj
Following Notes will be helpful to you to analyze the problem
Note 894279 - Background processing in SAP Solution Manager
Note 1246329 - RDSMOPBACK_AUTOSESSIONS: Additional displays
Note 1163920 - SM:Scheduler: Improved display in job log
Note 946607 - Automatic diagnosis in SAP Solution Manager
SAP Note 727998 "Complete Replacement of Service Definitions for SDCC/SDCCN"
Note 986973 - How to analyze problems with EarlyWatch Alerts in SolMan
however, is this problem occurring for sessions of ALL the systems today, if yes, then something wrong only in solman, last note of the above shows you to manually run the job interactively, may be will help in analyzing and i hope SDCCN settings in Solman are already fine..
thanks

    Dear Anand,
    Did you perform a complete service definition replacement for SDCC/SDCCN as described in the note?
    These are manual steps you need to perform on the system and are not code corrections.
    I would suggest you perform it, if you have not, and check the SDCCN logs to review the process ran cleanly.
    Note: Please make sure SDCC_OSS is functioning and a connection to SAP can be made before
    deleting the service definitions.
    If you have already replaced the service defintions on the Solution Manager system, then no point doing it again. However checking a note and applying it are not the same thing. So I am uncertain if you replaced the service definitions or not. The dump you are getting in SM:EXEC SERVICES suggests its due to a problem with the service definitons. The recommendation is to replace them according to the process described in SAP Note 727998. If you have not done so please do so.
    If you have successfully replaced the service definitions are you still getting the same dump, or has it possibly changed?
    Regards,
    Paul

  • How to debug the background job in ABAP

    Hi Guys,
    Can anyone let me know how to debug the background job in ABAP.
    Thanks in advance
    peter

    Hi,
    Goto SM37 and see the log if any is there and based on that you can check the code.
    you can't debug background job.
    Create a Variant for the Program and
    Schedule JOB in background:
    Go to SM36 create a Job
    enter Program and Variant for that program in STEP..
    click on Start Condition
    Click on DATE and TIME enter date scheduled Start and END times
    click on Period Values
    Click on HOURLY/WEEKLY etc
    CLick on RESTRICTIONS also to use further criteria.
    so your job will be scheduled and run as per your requirement.
    and in SM37 Transaction check the status of that JOB
    Check this link for scheduling jobs..

    Hi Pedro,
    I insert my answer from a similar thread.
    As a pitty, that's a well known error.
    Please check [SAP Note 727998|http://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/727998]
    Basically, these three steps needs to be performed:
    1) BDL_DELETE_ALL_TABLES
    2) SDCCN - Refresh Service Definitions
    3) Generate Logfuncs
    SE37: /BDL/_GENERATE_LOGFUNCINCLUDES
    OPTION: ALL
    It's also described in the Implementation Guide (IMG), transaction SPRO in the SAP Solution Manager system:
    SAP Solution Manager -> Configuration -> Basic Settings -> Standard Configuration of Basic Settings -> Solution Manager -> Service Data Control Center
    -> Activate the Service Data Control Center in the Solution Manager
    -> Generate Includes for Service Data Contol Center
    With the next ST-PI Support Package. The steps can be triggered via the menu of transaction SDCCN.
    Best regards,

  • Copying the background job

    Hi,
    I have a background job with has a start condition after execution of a particular event.
    Now i need to copy this background job to another name and execute it. I tried using the function module BP_JOB_COPY, but that copied the background job without the job start conditions. How can i copy the background job along with start conditions.
    Thank you in anticipation.

  • How to cancel the background job processing in ABAP programming?

    Hi,
    I have a requirement where i need to cancel the job depending on some constraint. My code is something like this:
    Select some data from the table.
    if sy-subrc = 0.
    Do nothing.
    Else
    Cancel the job
    call function 'BP_JOB_ABORT'
      exporting
       jobcount                         = number
        jobname                          = name
    EXCEPTIONS
       CHECKING_OF_JOB_HAS_FAILED       = 1
       JOB_ABORT_HAS_FAILED             = 2
       JOB_DOES_NOT_EXIST               = 3
       JOB_IS_NOT_ACTIVE                = 4
       NO_ABORT_PRIVILEGE_GIVEN         = 5
       OTHERS                           = 6
    The above code is cancelling the job but it is throwing an exception called CX_SY_DYN_CALL_PARAM_MISSING because i dint pass job count. How can we find the job count of next job that is going to run? Or How to handle the exception which it is throwing. Even if i try to handle that exception something like this:
    TRY
    call function 'BP_JOB_ABORT'
      exporting
       jobcount                         = number
        jobname                          = name
    EXCEPTIONS
       CHECKING_OF_JOB_HAS_FAILED       = 1
       JOB_ABORT_HAS_FAILED             = 2
       JOB_DOES_NOT_EXIST               = 3
       JOB_IS_NOT_ACTIVE                = 4
       NO_ABORT_PRIVILEGE_GIVEN         = 5
       OTHERS                           = 6
    RAISE EXCEPTION TYPE CX_SY_DYN_CALL_PARAM_MISSING.
    CATCH
    CX_SY_DYN_CALL_PARAM_MISSING.
    ENDTRY.
    It avoids the exception but it doesnt cancel the job.  I even tried with function modules like JOB_OPEN
    JOB_SUBMIT,BP_JOB_SELECT,BP_JOB_ABORT and tried to build some logic using status overview table (TBTCO) and TBTCP (Jobstep overview table).
    Can someone suggest me the right way to write this program ?
    Thanks in advance.

    Create an background job with 2 steps. The first step in the background job calls the program ZBACKJOB_STEP1.  In the variant we have a wrong material number
    If the material number is not found in Mara, the next step in the job should not get executed and the job should get cancelled..
    In the above posts i had asked how do I get the job count of the job that is currently triggering the program at the runtimeu2026..If u see the below code uu2019ll get to know.. We have to use the standard structure TBTCM which captures the properties/characteristics of the job.
    REPORT ZBACKJOB_STEP1.
    TABLES: MARA,TBTCM.
    PARAMETERS : MATNR TYPE MATNR.
    START-OF-SELECTION.
      SELECT SINGLE * FROM MARA WHERE MATNR = MATNR.
      IF SY-SUBRC IS INITIAL.
        WRITE / : 'This is the material selected on the selection-screen' , MARA-MATNR.
    ELSE.
            CALL FUNCTION 'GET_JOB_RUNTIME_INFO'
          IMPORTING
            EVENTID                                    = TBTCM-EVENTID
            EVENTPARM                             = TBTCM-EVENTPARM
            EXTERNAL_PROGRAM_ACTIVE = TBTCM-XPGACTIVE
            JOBCOUNT                                = TBTCM-JOBCOUNT
            JOBNAME                                  = TBTCM-JOBNAME
            STEPCOUNT                              = TBTCM-STEPCOUNT
          EXCEPTIONS
            NO_RUNTIME_INFO                    = 1
            OTHERS                                     = 2.
        IF SY-SUBRC = 0.
          CALL FUNCTION 'BP_JOB_ABORT'
            EXPORTING
              JOBCOUNT                                     = TBTCM-JOBCOUNT
              JOBNAME                                       = TBTCM-JOBNAME
            EXCEPTIONS
              CHECKING_OF_JOB_HAS_FAILED  = 1
              JOB_ABORT_HAS_FAILED              = 2
              JOB_DOES_NOT_EXIST                   = 3
              JOB_IS_NOT_ACTIVE                      = 4
              NO_ABORT_PRIVILEGE_GIVEN       = 5
              OTHERS                                         = 6.
          IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.
          ENDIF.
        ENDIF.
      ENDIF.

  • Certain Maintenance Plan not getting scheduled in the background job

    Hi Gurus,
    I am facing an issue here.
    A weekly background job (RISTRA20) runs every weekend and schedules the maintenance plans.
    But we have noticed that some maintenance plans are not getting scheduled. i.e no orders or schedule is getting generated.
    When I run IP30 manually for these plans then the schedule gets generated and orders get called.
    I have checked up the background job and it is running fine.
    Also, i have noticed a similarity in all these plans which are not getting scheduled. There schedule has been restarted (through IP10) at somepoint or the other.
    But i don't see any direct impact of this?
    Can any of you provide some help on this?? Points will be rewarded.
    Thanks and regards,
    Nitin Saini

    Hi Narender,
    Thanks for replying.
    The message number for 'Groups don't match' is ME303.
    I think this does not have anything to do with the restart as i have done further investigation.
    Whenever I run IP30 with sortfield input as AS02*, i get the error as mentioned above for a certain number of maintenance plans while the remaining plans get scheduled.
    If i run IP30 for any other sort fields, it runs fine and i don't encounter the error
    mentioned above.
    If you send me ur email address, i could forward you screen-shots of the issue.

  • Actual Varaint Name used in the Background Job

    Hi,
    When a program is executed in Background made the selection screen variant selected is not the one that is shown in the Background Job Step information. There we see variant as &0000000000044.
    I want to find the actual variant that was selected at the time of running the program in background mode.
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    I also faced the same issue and after my R&D i found a workaround for this. Check this out.
    Create a selection screen parameter and hide it.
    PARAMETERS: po_varnt TYPE sy-slset NO-DISPLAY.
    Now place below code in AT SELECTIO-SCREEN OUTPUT event.
    AT SELECTION-SCREEN OUTPUT.
        CHECK sy-batch IS INITIAL.
        CLEAR po_varnt.
        MOVE sy-slset TO po_varnt.
    If you are running in background by pressing F9 from selection screen, Use your hided parameter po_varnt for the variant name instead of sy-slset.
    If you are running the report in foreground or through SM36 then you can use sy-slset to know the variant name.
    Thanks,
    Vinod.

  • How to schedule the background job if report have Presentation server files

    Hi All,
    I have searched the forums and found , the way for the scheduling the background job if report selection screen have the presentation server file input.
    1. Using the Open data set method.
    And my client is not OK with Open dataset way, it there any other way to do this, As we are using the EXCEL file.
    Thanks and Regards,
    Bharani

    Hi,
    As said above it is generally not possible. Since your client most obviously doesn't like graphical background I would recomend storing data as till now, but show it with your own report in more userfriendly way. For example:
    - as ALV Grid
    - in excel with use of OLE either as embedded in SAP or new window (check transaction OLE for example)
    - with use of webdynpro

  • How to schedule the background job daily twice?

    Hi,
    How to schedule the background job daily twice? any conditions?
    Regards,
    Srihitha

    see the step by step procedure.
    Scheduling Background Jobs:
    1. Background jobs are scheduled by Basis administrators using transaction SM36.
    2. To run a report in a background, a job needs to be created with a step using the report name
    and a variant for selection parameters. It is recommended to create a separate variant for each
    scheduled job to produce results for specific dates (e.g. previous month) or organizational units (e.g.
    company codes).
    3. While defining the step, the spool parameters needs to be specified
    (Step-> Print Specifications->Properties) to secure the output of the report and help authorized users
    to find the spool request. The following parameters needs to be maintained:
    a. Time of printing: set to “Send to SAP spooler Only for now”
    b. Name – abbreviated name to identify the job output
    c. Title – free form description for the report output
    d. Authorization – a value defined by Security in user profiles to allow those users to access
    this spool request (authorization object S_SPO_ACT, value SPOAUTH). Only users with matching
    authorization value in their profiles will be able to see the output.
    e. Department – set to appropriate department/functional area name. This field can be used in
    a search later.
    f. Retention period – set to “Do not delete” if the report output needs to be retained for more
    than 8 days. Once the archiving/document repository solution is in place the spool requests could
    be automatically moved to the archive/repository. Storage Mode parameter on the same screen
    could be used to immediately send the output to archive instead of creating a spool request.
    Configuring user access:
    1. To access a report output created by a background job, a user must have at
    least access to SP01 (Spool requests) transaction without restriction on the user
    name (however by itself it will not let the user to see all spool requests). To have
    that access the user must have S_ADMI_FCD authorization object in the profile with
    SPOR (or SP01) value of S_ADMI_FCD parameter (maintained by Security).
    2. To access a particular job’s output in the spool, the user must have
    S_SPO_ACT object in the profile with SPOAUTH parameter matching the value used
    in the Print Specifications of the job (see p. 3.d above).
    3. Levels of access to the spool (display, print once, reprint, download, etc) are
    controlled by SPOACTION parameter of S_SPO_ACT. The user must have at least
    BASE access (display).
    On-line reports:
    1. Exactly the same configuration can be maintained for any output produced
    from R/3. If a user clicks “Parameters” button on a SAP Printer selection dialog, it
    allows to specify all the parameters as described in p. 3 of
    “Scheduling background jobs” section. Thus any output created by an online report
    can be saved and accessed by any user authorized to access that spool request
    (access restriction provided by the Authorization field of the spool request
    attributes, see p. 3.d of “Scheduling background jobs” section).
    Access to report’s output:
    1. A user that had proper access (see Configuring user access above) can
    retrieve a job/report output through transaction SP01.
    2. The selection screen can be configured by clicking “Further selection
    criteria…” button (e.g. to bring “Spool request name (suffix 2)” field or hide other
    fields).
    3. The following fields can be used to search for a specific output (Note that
    Created By must be blank when searching for scheduled job’s outputs)
    a. Spool request name (suffix 2) – corresponds to a spool name in p. 3.b in
    “Scheduling background jobs” section above).
    b. Date created – to find an output of a job that ran within a certain date range.
    c. Title – corresponds to spool Title in p. 3.c in “Scheduling background jobs”
    section above).
    d. Department - corresponds to spool Department in p. 3.e in “Scheduling
    background jobs” section above).
    4. Upon entering selection criteria, the user clicks the Execute button to
    retrieve the list of matching spool requests.
    5. From the spool list the user can use several function such as view the
    content of a spool request, print the spool request, view attributed of the spool
    request, etc. (some functions may need special authorization, see p.3 in
    Configuring user access)
    a. Click the Print button to print the spool request with the default attributes
    (usually defined with the job definition). It will print it on a printer that was
    specified when a job was created.
    b. Click the “Print with changed attributed” button to print the spool request
    with the different attributes (e.g. changing the printer name).
    c. Click the “Display contents” button to preview the spool request contents. A
    Print and Download functions are available from the preview mode.

  • How to stop the background job "Sap_collector_for_job_statistic"

    Dear All,
    Kindly let me know how to stop the Background job "Sap_collector_for_job_statistic" which is running everyday.
    We want to stop this background job.
    Kindly suggest.
    Regards,
    Mullairaja

    Select the Job using SM37 transaction. In the Menu Choose
    Job ---> Cancel Active Job.
    Before you do this it may be good idea to check the pid using SM50.
    It will be using a Background work process. Check the pid and the status.
    Select the same and in the Menu Choose Process --> Cancel with Core.
    Refresh and check in SM37 for the Active and Cancelled Jobs.

    else.
      write:  /1 'JOBCOUNT  = ', xv_jobcn.
      write:  /1 'JOBNAME   = ', xv_jobnm.
      write:  /1 'STEPCOUNT = ', xv_stepc.
    endif.
                                                                                    commit work.
    In online mode you get a SUBRC = 1, in batch mode you get the informations (here: in SPOOL)
    Please check it on your system!
