Archiving Jobs

Hi Friends,
I have archived the data from ODS. After completed the process there are 3 finished jobs in sm37 with different time duration.
As my knowledge one is for dleting the records and another one is for writing the records. But what about the 3rd one.
Kindly can any body explain me.
Thanks,
Shaliny.

Hello,
Please ask in the
Visual Basic .Net Language forum on MSDN if you want a program.
If you are creating a script or batch file, I'd ask in
The Official Scripting Guys Forum!
Neither place is a good place to go to if you want someone else to do the work for you.
If you want hints or suggestions to improve what you already have, then the above suggestions are valid.

Schedule archiving jobs

Hi,
We are trying to schedule periodically the archiving jobs for several objects.
To be more specific, we begin with MM_EKKO archiving object and we would like to chain the 3 steps : preprocessor the write, then delete.
Chaining delete after write is easy : In "technical Setting", we just have to tickle "start automatically" in the "delete jobs" parameters.
But how to chain automatically write step after preprocessor ?
Obviously, I tried usual options in SM36 and used "after job" parameter. But what job can I enter as the job name for precprocessor is automatically generated by SAP and changed at every new job (the date and time are included in the name, e.g : ARV_MM_EKKO_SUB20110406163238) ?
Do I need to use an exernal third party scheduler to do this ?

Serge,
I have been researching on your query lately and have put accross this question to some Archiving Experts at my end. Hopefully, will come up with a full-proof solution.
But in the meantime, if you have a sandbox or if you can do a research, please do the following:
1. In SARA, under the TECHNICAL SETTINGS tab go to the VERIFY ARCHIVE FILES box.
2. There just click on the following, Before Deleting, Before Reading and Before Reloading.
3. I think this BEFORE READING box could be a solution.
4. And for deletion check the START AUTOMATICALLY option.
Please try this and let us know. If solved, okay and if not then I will reply back after conveying from the experts.

Long runnning IDOC Archiving jobs: ARV_IDOC_WRI* are being observed in PRD system with Avg runtime > 150,000 sec.
Job Details:
Main Program: RSEXARCA

These jobs are also resource consuming & extensively using CPU & Memory.
For info: These jobs are getting finished but only after long runtime.

Please suggest as to how the job runtime can be reduced.
Awaiting for your reply.

Hi,
Since the variant used is fetching data for the entire month, you could try splitting the jobs and have multiple runs instead.
You can also try to schedule the jobs when there is minimum system load, incase its not already done.
As far as the program is concerned, if this is standard program, there is little scope for tuning.
You can always check for related index quality and statements with high CPU costs to better understand why the job is running for such a long duration.

How archiving jobs (WRI) on specific server

I have one database and two application servers. Whenever I start archiving jobs (WRI) are created on database server. I would like to push archiving on one other application server(but do not know how to do that). If i shedule job(..SUB..) and force it to an application server (long lasting) WRI jobs are being executed againon database server. How to avoid that
In trx "Sara"->customizing->Cross archiving Objects Customizing: Technical settings there is an setting "Server group for Background Processing" but I do not know what to set as Server Group Name(is it an logon group out of smlg or?). Setting like server_<SID>_<Inst.nr.) is not correct.
Please help

Hi,
You have to maintain the server group in transaction SM61--> button "Job Servergruppen" (nice english transalation !)

Automate Archiving Jobs

Hi
We wanted to run the Archive jobs every year by Company Code and Object wise.
We have around 7 sales companies and 10 objects so we have to run 70 jobs Every year. So we wanted to automate this process so that we dodnt need to eneter the texts etc and schedule the jobs every year.
But these are the problems which we are facing:
1.If we wanted to Archive SD_VBAK object for the ABC Sales org , then we need to enter some text( some thing like "ABC Slaes org 1999 Year Sales docs") in the varaint(this can done using table TVARVC(By using Dynamic variants).
2. But after the jobs, we need to change the Spool paramaters,where in we will select the output device,Storage Mode as " Archive " only, and Text same as which I used earlier in step .1.
But how can we make this Text field to get the value from TVARVC or somewhere ? Sicne its Popo-up box.(This spool text will be the Archove File name ,which will be displayed when we are reading the Archives.)
Can somebody help to advice what are ways to Automate the Archive jobs( so that users doenst need to run these 70 jobs manually every year by entering Text and spool text etc..?
We are running on SAP 4.7 version.
Thankyou

SARA is the tcode for archive objects

Scheduling of Archive jobs

Hi,
i really need to apologize here, but i did not found an appropriate forum to ask this, neither a forum for ADK archiving development kit nor a forum about XBP (intercepted jobs). If there is a froum for asking questions like this you can slap me for that
The archiving object is configured to schedule the ARVSTO jobs automatically which we want to keep to spread the load over a certain time and not to have a bunch of archiving jobs always running at a specific time.
In this system we do not have a connection to a central job scheduling tool due to license costs.
The problem is that sometimes ARVSTO jobs are scheduled exactly at the time where our IXOS serving is going down for 15 minutes for maintanence.
I'm now looking for ANY possibility to avoid that ARVSTO jobs are scheduled between 4 and 5 o'clock. I hat a look at OSS notes 458670 and 604496, with those notes i can avoid that the jobs are starting automatically but i need an external job scheduler or i need to start them manually. I dont have a job scheduler and i dont want to do this manually.
I had a look at report RSARCHD to do a modifaction but as far as i can see this one is only scheduling the ARVDEL jobs.
So does anyone have an idea to solve this? Even if it is a modification, or en enhancement, a BADI or en exit, i dont care.
Thanks in advance.

Create one procedure and write all your logic which you want to schedure.
Please execute the below block to set the job.
Please change ### with Your PROCEDURE NAME WITH PARAMETER.
'SYSDATE+1/1440' = Indicate that your job execute every minute..
DECLARE
X NUMBER;
BEGIN
SYS.DBMS_JOB.SUBMIT
( job => X
,what => '###'
,next_date => to_date('17/02/2010 12:54:32','dd/mm/yyyy hh24:mi:ss')
,interval => 'SYSDATE+1/1440 '
,no_parse => TRUE
SYS.DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('Job Number is: ' || to_char(x));
END;

Archive jobs / Delete job

I have some questions regarding Archiving / Deleting..
1) What are the implication of not setting 'DELETION' category parameters in 'Specific configuration'.
2) How do I delete the messages that are archived? Will 'Delete job' handle this also?
3) Also I had archived some messages using Archiving job.. When try to lookup this message using 'Archived XML Messages (Search using Archive), I get a list of Archived messages. When I click on any of this messages, I get "Could not find message in archive" message.

hi,
- did you activate SAP_BC_XMB info structure?
- did you do all the configuration?
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/0e/80553b4d53273de10000000a114084/content.htm
BTW
you can also fill activated information structure retrospectively for already existing archives:

Problem while Scheduling Archive Jobs from SXMB_ADM

Dear all,
I am using this blog to delete and archive messages.
/people/deepak.shah/blog/2010/04/22/archiving-deletion-of-messages-in-pi--part-2
I have configured Retention periods from SXMB_ADM and there by scheduled Archive Jobs through SXMB_ADM itself.
Now when i check in SM37, after Archive jobs scheduled , i am not able to see 2 jobs as described in this Blog.
i am able to see only one Job with name "SAP_BC_XMB_ARCHIVE200"
Please assist me what might be the problem
Regards

Hi Ganesh,
Thank you for replying. Once this SAP_BC_XMB_ARCHIVE200 is finished, one more job has been generated
ARV_BC_XMB_WRP20100602112115. But this is not for deletion . it is doing archiving
When i check the log, SAP_BC_XMB_ARCHIVE200 contains the program as RSXMB_ARCHIVE_PLAN
and ARV_BC_XMB_WRP20100602112115 job contains the program as RSXMB_ARCHIVE_MESSAGES
There is no job generated for deletion of Archived ones.
>>Deletion job starts automatically if in archiving setting u have selected START AUTOMATICALLY option for deletion .
Could you please let me know where this should be done while doing Archiving jobs??
Regards

Archive Job error

Hi friends,
I have done Archive configuration setup. In Define interfaces for archiving given 1 interface (which i want to do archive) and retention period as 1 day under asynchronous XML msgs. Scheduled a archiving job on the same day. After all these, I triggered one successful msg. The job ARV_BC_XMB_WRP* gets cancelled with error msg "Error when accessing the archive data". But I am not able to see the archive file in the physical path given in the configuration.
whr this msg gets archived?
Could any one help me wht is the problem and how to correct this?
thanx,
kumar

Hi Sumit,
Thanx for ur reply.
Got the msg ID from table and that cancelled msg in Moni and that gets archived whn job ran today.
Cancelled msgs are getting archived only If I maintain the below entry
category            Parameters                                         Current value
RUNTIME    PERSIST_ARCH_MANUAL_CHANGES          1
in Integration Engine Configuration ---> Specific Configuration.
But in this case, every cancelled msg getting archived irrespective of the Interfaces given in Define Interfaces for Archiving. But i need to archive the cancelled msgs only for the interfaces defined.
To do this, I selected the "Manually cancelled Msgs" check box for the interface given in Define Interfaces for Archiving, but not working.
Again help me out on this.
Thanx,
Kumar.

XI Archiving: Restarting a terminated archived job.

Hi All,
Due to some constraints, our PI server (devt) has only 9.5 GB of disk space for the archive directory. We have 300,000 messages that is flagged for archiving and it seems that the archiving job will terminate with a dataset_write_error which we assume is caused because there is not enough disk space in the archive folders.
After moving the previous archive files out of the directory to reclaim the disk space, we restarted the archive job.Will restarting the archive job allow the archive job to pick up from where it was terminated or will it "restart" from beginning?
Anyone experienced something similar before?

Dear Lugman,
the behaviour of the new archiving job depends on the configuration of archiving object BC_XMB (transaction AOBJ). If the option "Do Not Before End of Write Phase" is set (default), then the next archiving job will start from the very beginning. In this case all archive file written by the previous job can be deleted. If the option is de-selected the new archiving job will start with the last archiving file. All files that were written sucessfully before the error ocurred are safe.
In general you might also want to increase the retention period temporarily. This way you reduce the number of messages to be archived in one single blow and you have better control on the data volume that is written to file.
Best regards,

LMS 3.2 RME 4.3.1 Archive Jobs hang

LMS 3.2 Windows 2003 R2 8Gig RAM
Managing ~4000 devices currently on LMS 3.1. Built new LMS3.2 server and patched to RME 4.3.1.
Import from csv file works fine and RME inventory collection/ Campus Manager Data Collection all works perfectly.
Archive Jobs hang (at random device #'s) after starting successfully.
I have tried restarting ConfigMgmtServer process, rebooting, even reinit CMF, RME and ANI db and starting from scratch but issue persists.
Are there any known issues with LMS 3.2 on Archive Jobs hanging or should I debug and open TAC case?

Resolution Summary:Checked the dcmaService.log and found the following recurring statements.
com.cisco.nm.xms.xdi.pkgs.LibCommon.common.CommonUtility,getMinSupportedVersion,406,Descr = 12.2(50)SE
[ Tue Oct 26 15:58:45 CDT 2010 ],DEBUG,[main],com.cisco.nm.xms.xdi.pkgs.LibCommon.common.CommonUtility,getMinSupportedVersion,405,suppSysId = .1.3.6.1.4.1.9.1.927
[ Tue Oct 26 15:58:45 CDT 2010
Checked that the device IOS was well above the version specified in the logs, so thought may be an issue with the device packages.
Checked the mdf version was 1.25 which came as default when we install LMS 3.2, so upgraded the mdf version to 1.45.
Still the issue didn't got solved, so upgraded the RME device packages and now the archive job was successful.

J2EE Archiving Job

Hi All,
can we do some archiving for J2EE Engine? I have configured archiving job for Integration engine but not for je22 engine.
I have seen option of background process in adapter engine. and there is a option for job of type 'archive'. How does archiving in J2ee engine work. I can see that there is already default delete and recover job configured there.
As far i know the default delete program run every day and it deletes the adapter engine message. So because of these i cannot see the adapter engine message for yesterday or day before yesterday. Am I right?
What does the recover job work?

Archive job never completed

Hello all;
I have sent archived ADK admin, job started, log said archived data already but the archive job status never green.
still incomplete session and hanging in the system.
Pls advise why job never completed .
Thx in advance.

Hello,
To check to see if the archive file is actually available, go to the Management data of the archive object (from transaction SARA), expand the archive session to see the file(s), double click on the file and look at the Archive Administration: Archive File Detail information. Check at the bottom of the pop-up box and you should be able to see the File Name, the Logicial Path and the Physical File Name.

Hello All,
My current proj in archiving got over this week.I am trying to find other archiving projects.
I finding it very limited job requirement posting in all the career sites. I would like to know whether job posting in archiving is always less amount or only becos this is not the correct time (due to slow down in US economy) new archiving jobs are not available?
thanks,
geetha.

Hi Geeta Ram,
Dont loose ur heart. there are decent openings in Archiving.
But right now, this is not the time to look for a job change. Wain for a few more months so that news abt US recession sinks down.
