Clean Up activities in R/3 systems

Hi Friends,
We are planning to do clean up activities in some of our Client systems.Need your suggestions and ideas regarding clean up activities.
1)What are all the things that we need to consider before we start with clean up activities?
2) What are all clean up activities that can be done in R/3 systems?.
3)What are all the precautionary steps to follow up to avoid any data sensitive datas while doing those clean up activities?
Apart from this what are all the things that can we do to improve tha performance of the system.
Any inputs or suggestion will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
With kind regards
Karthick

Hi Karthick,
You can check for the reorganization jobs running regularly in your system or not.(Follow the SAP notes that have already posted above)  if your system is aged you may need to put an archiving strategy in place to move old data to some archive destination. Before you do any work, where you think that any loss may have critical impact, you should have backup of database or entire file system backup or necessary back out plan so that you can recover.
Apart from this what are all the things that can we do to improve tha performance of the system.
in SAP system, performance bottleneck can lie in all the layers which will finally affect the users. 1. OS 2. Database. 3. Application.
You have to check for the real problem which can really solve the issue.
i. Set the database parameter according to SAP's recommendation for your platform/system type.
ii. Check for any long running programs, bring them to developers attention if they can be tuned.
iii. Check for missing index. missing index causes sqls on tables to run for longer times.
iv. Check for any h/w or other os level bottleneck (you can take the help from your os team if required).
FYI - As performance of SAP system is little difficult to analyse.. you may consider SAP course ADM315 workload analysis.

Debasis.

  • Why did my hardrive get wiped clean when I did a simple system update?

    On May 4th, 2010 my eMac, which is running Mac OS X (10.4.11) did it's automatic system update. I bought this eMac it was a refurb from eBay. I never had a single problem, it ran perfectly fine when I had tested it out, everything was great. I transferred some photos and music from my old Windows computer to the "new" eMac, and some of the music was newer and needed a system update to work properly. I thought nothing of it so I went to www.apple.com and looked for the update, found it, and started it. I had went ahead and stepped away while it updated to pass the time. Once I had gotten back I went ahead and restarted the computer like you must do with every update, when I had logged back in, my hard drive was wiped clean. At the time I was a little perturbed to say the least, but I passed it off as it not having an update in so long that it had just, more or less, reinstalled the new system update. Once again I passed it off not thinking anything of it, never had another problem out of it at all. I had put a many of programs such as Adobe Photoshop CS3, Adobe Audition, Dreamweaber, Garageband (full version), djay v3, and I had even JUST put Logic Studio on it, and many others. After putting, more or less, my entire livelihood on the eMac, (I create website designs, various ads, freelance photography and videography, and a verity of other logos, designs, insignia, emblems, ect...) it did another automatic update, now my ENTIRE hard drive is wiped clean. I no longer have possession of my software discs due to someone stealing them along with all my audio cds, and dvds. I don't have the money to spend on new software, (altogether my software added up to just over $2.5k) and now I am already feeling the effects. What can I do? Will Apple even help?

    As for your comment on this being my first Mac, and the program issue, you misunderstood. Yes the eMac is in fact my first, personally owned, Mac computer other than the original Apple II series floppy fed PC, in which me and my father owned. The only other Apple/Macintosh computer I had experience on was my father's 13" MacBook Pro, and 20" iMac (both ran OSX Tiger 10.4.11, just as the one I have know runs). The iMac was upgraded to Snow Leopard due to our need for better picture/video/audio editing software such as that of Adobe, and the Macbook Pro was sold because of a business that was started being siphoned out of money. I purchased the eMac from a small business based off of eBay. It had the majority of OSX Tiger software, only missing minor programs like Photobooth. Other than that, it had no wireless software like BlueTooth, Wi-Fi capabilities, wireless sync, ect... But alas, when you buy a Apple/Mac computer, you must take a few cutbacks when purchasing it (even refurb.) for around $120.00 including taxing, shipping, handling, ect... I purchased nearly all of my software from co-workers and friends who had an extra key, or I would receive the software disc from them, and buy a key. The only "illegal" thing I had on the computer was music I had downloaded from LimeWire. I have never, and will never, trust any software coming from a torrent download site.

  • Can I clean install a Windows 7 Pro System Builder on a Lenovo PC with Windows 8 preinstalled?

    Hi. I would like to clean install windows 7 on a Lenovo PC  that came with Windows 8 core preinstalled. I want to format the entire drive and remove windows 8 and clean install windows 7.  I already tried the clean install of Windows 7 Pro to get all of my drivers in line, and now I would like to buy a Product Key.
    Would  a Windows 7 Pro System Builder work in my case? Would it work just as smoothly as a retail version? I understand that the System Builder is an OEM version that includes the Product Key, COA, and DVD) Just want to make sure before I buy the System Builder version of Windows 7 Pro.  Thanks.
    Grazzie
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    that should be retail since it seemed to be used for pc upgrades either way your new system builder key should work. those are called refresh because they re-released them sincea bug was found in thier installers. Do you have any key in the computer atm? or is windows just waiting to be activated? 
    EDIT: its a good copy look here>  http://www.heidoc.net/joomla/technology-science/microsoft/14-windows-7-direct-download-links
    Should you want to use the DVD images permanently, and don't own a product key yet, you can order a Windows 7 OEM or retail version from Amazon. The OEM reinstallation versions contain a DVD with a product key just like the retail versions. They are significantly cheaper, but lack a proper box packaging, and don't include technical support by Microsoft. The OEM key will work with the Digital River downloads, so you can just pick the cheapest one. Sometimes better editions are the cheaper ones, so all of the following links to Amazon offers might be worth checking. I've already tried to find good deals for all editions and linked to them here:

  • General XI Connectivity  activities in the business system to connect to XI

    Hi,
    Is there any general/common XI connectivity activities/configuration to be done for a business systems (both SAP and Non-SAP) to preparfe it to able to talk to SAP XI ? Is there any mandatory tasks (sort of a checklist) to make a business system to be able to integrate it with SAP XI (apart from specific configuration).
    The SAP XI Master guide talks about XI Connectivity add-on client to be installed in the business system. I am not understanding as to what does that mean. For Example, if i want to integrate SAP SRM business system to SAP XI, what are the minimum XI connectivity related activites to be done on the SAP SRM system.
    I appreciate your input in this regard.
    Regards
    Ganesh

    Hello Nisar
    Thanks for the update,
    Let me say few points  about this particular problem:
    1>The interface "XX" from XI sends data to two systems( R3 -->RP1 & RY1), some thing like branched (same data is passed to both the reciever systems).
    And the second RY1 is copy of First system RP1 (Production sys) which is used for data loading purpose and every week there will be a refresh from First sys (RP1) to Second(RY1).
    2>Now the first sys(RP1) is recieving the data successfully from XI , and the second one (RY1) is getting failed .And this started after changing the Business system 871 to 100 .
    3>As mentioned by you , I have checked all the points mentioned
        i)In SM59 for XI (ABAP part) two rfc's are maintained (LCRSAPRFC & SAPSLDAPI) and the test connection is also fine...But I did not find these two connections in reciever systems(RP1 & RY1 too).
       ii)In reciever system RY1 ,when i went to RZ70 , i did not noticed any special settings and SLD Bridge :Gateway Information is not maitained over there .and the same thing in other reciever system(RP1) , with this can we confirm that there is nothing wrong in RZ70 settings.
       iii)In SLDAPICUST at recievers end for both systems nothing is mantained , where as in XI system all the details are maintained(Host name,port, user & password).
    I have translated the error log into english from the CC monitoring for this interface which is in portuguese language .
    It says that:
    RFC_ERROR_LOGON_FAILURE: 871 Mandante not in the system (select principal existing)
    Kindly advise me what to do ..for fixing this problem(this is pretty urgent and it is production env...)..
    If any information required , I can provide that.
    Best Regards

  • SAP BW Production Clean Up Activities

    Hi Friends !
    We are planning to perform clean up of SAP BW Prod. The motto is to free the space & delete all un-used objects. Few things to be considered :
    1) PSA deletion - Do we have any Tcode which gives the entire list of PSA? Then we can build a Process Chain & run weekly.
    2) List of unused queries which is not used since Jan 2011 (I guess we can create a query with the stats cube) - Need to find the details.
    3) List of unused objects - Once we get the unused query names, we can delete its dependent objects. Correct?
    4) Need to find out latest users & query which they are using
    5) Send communication to all the BW users
    6) Chek the RSMO & find which all data loads are happening daily...weekly...montly.
    Please add more in the list. Thanks.
    With Regards
    Rekha

    Hi...
    One more thing I can suggest you.......
    You can archive the old data of the infocube and ODS.......it will also free the memory space and will improve the performance...
    You can retrieve these archived data in future if required.....
    You can archive the data using the tcode : SARA
    Check the below document :

  • Clean install of Leopard made my system run slow

    I have a MacBook Pro 2.0 Core Duo 2GB RAM (first generation)
    Initially, I did an upgrade from Tiger to Leo and there was no slowness. I was asked one of the external audio interface manufacturers that their driver might not work properly if upgraded from Tiger to Leo (without clean install). It needs a clean install so I performed a clean install of Leopard.
    Now, my MacBook Pro is slow when I try to run (start) an applications e.g. Logic Pro 8 or when I try to navigate through folders. There is a delay in displaying icons or opening files. There is a huge delay when I try to switch from Arrange windows.
    Are there any services or back ground applications that I can turn off? Has anyone else experience similar issue?
    Thanks
    Mitch

    thats happening all the time. it is not a one time thing. if there was a run away process it should get killed when a reboot is performed right?
    it appears that i have to modify Leo so that only needed services and apps running but not sure which one to kill

    is there any way to completely wipe my hard drive clean without losing my operating system

    Stellar Wipe Mac is a wiping software that wiper a hard drive beyond the scope of recovery. You can select from the software which drive to wipe leaving the OS X intact. Else, if the drive is a single partition then no software will be able to wipe without wiping the OS X. So be careful.

  • Clean-up the BW system before Upgrade

    Hi ,
           We are planning to upgrade from 3.1 to 3.5 . We are planning to clean up the BW system before Upgrade. What are the clean up activities to be perform e.g clean up PSA , delete unused objects/queries etc.
    Please let me know if there is any documentation available on clean up.
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    I would rather start with the unused cube/ODS and probably archive them. Then delete the PSAs for them. You may also need to do a PSA clean-up activity.
    <b>
    To find unused queries: </b>There are 2 ways
    1. Goto ST03N and select expert mode and under BW system load,look for the queries. It lists all the queries which uses from past 3 months. So whatever object is missing in that is not used. This is the one way of listing the queries which are not used.
    2. In the technical content, you can check the queries on multiprovider 0BWTC_C10(queries realted to OLAP).
    Once you identify the unused queries then use the transaction RSZDELETE to delete them.
    <b>Workbooks:</b> Try RSWB_ROLES_REORG. This will delete workbooks etc which are not associated to a role or query.
    <b>Unused hierarchies: </b>Check this post: Unused Hierarchies
    <b>Unused master data: </b>Goto rsa1 -> infoobjects. Right click the infoobject and choose 'delete master data'. All 'unused' records will be deleted.
    <b>PSA Clean-up:: </b>Check the fn module :RSATREE_PSA_DELETE_BATCH

  • Cleaning old systems and applications from Mac

    I want to clean up my computer of old system folders and applications that are not it use but am afraid some settings will be lost. Is there a careful way to do this? Is spring cleaning or another 3rd party software the best option. I particularly want to get rid of CS, CS2, and CS3 but I notice that each time I upgrade it pulls information from the previous install and I don't want to mess up my CS4, or CS5 settings.

    !http://i46.tinypic.com/2nvn6f.gif!
    "I particularly want to get rid of CS, CS2, and CS3 but I notice that each time I upgrade it pulls information from the previous install and I don't want to mess up my CS4, or CS5 settings."
    Trash only the application. Leave the setting files alone.
    "I want to clean up my computer of old system folders and applications that are not it use but am afraid some settings will be lost. *Is there a careful way to do this?"*
    Leave the system folders alone is the +"golden rule"+ around here. Unless _you really know what you are doing,_ it's best to leave them be.
    For cleaning up your computer of unwanted and/or unneeded files here are a few suggestions:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305454 Mac OS X 10.4: FileVault - "There isn't enough space on your hard disk..." alert
    Empty the trash!
    Open up your application folder & go through all your apps. Trash all the apps you no longer want and/or use.
    An easier way to do this is to open the Application folder in list view & press the Command+j keys.
    In the the dialog that appears, click the "This Window Only" button & the "Calculate All Sizes" check box.
    Wait a bit until your file & folder sizes have all been calculated, then click the "Size" column to sort your apps from the fattest to the most anorexic.
    Get rid of all your photo files you don't want and/or need. Same goes for those pics off the websites you downloaded (gifs, jpegs, etc.).
    Get rid of all your music files you no longer listen too. Especially, if you already have the actual CD/DVDs or you can later redownload from a website.
    Use Spotlight to make sure you got rid of everything. You can even trash directly from Spotlight!
    Drag what you don't want and/or need to the trash. Better yet, download this neat little shareware app demo called AppZapper. It basically does all the work for you by not only trashing the apps but the apps preference files, caches & all its associated files.
    Another software that does the above is AppDelete. Best of all this software is free!
    Burn what you want and/or need onto CDs or DVDs.
    Not everyone has the luxury of purchasing an external HD and/or Mobile accounts to store their "stuff.”
    You can check with your ISP to see if they offer free storage space. Most if not all do now-a-days.
    There are thousands if not millions of free storage facilities on the web also. Use your favorite search engine to search them out as they come in different storage sizes to fit your needs & wants.
    Check for duplicate fonts.
    Applications>Font Book
    Select “All Fonts”
    If you see any “black dots” next to any fonts this mean you have duplicates and/or multiple versions of these fonts.
    To clean this up, select a “black dotted” font or the Apple + click to select multiple dotted fonts;
    Edit>Resolve>Duplicates.
    What the above does is turns off the duplicates & multiple version fonts. Not delete them.
    More than likely the “extras” were installed by other programs and/or other users.
    Clear out font caches
    Use FontNuke. It does all the work for you. And, best of all it’s FREE.
    Printer Drivers
    Get rid of all the printer drivers you don’t need & use except the ones for your current printer(s)/scanner(s).
    HD>Library>Printers Folder
    If you accidently threw something out that you needed for your printer/scanner it can be easily obtained from the manufacturer’s website and/or from the CD that came w/the printer/scanner.
    Garage Band
    Has about 1GB of loops stored. Get rid of some some them. You surely don’t use, like and/or need them all.
    HD>Library>Audio/Apple Loops>Apple>Apple Loops For GarageBand
    Or just get rid of the Garage Band app altogether if you don’t use it.
    Get rid of extra languages
    Strip your computer down to your “native” tongue.
    You can do this with a FREE utility called Monolingual. Another app that apparently does all the work for you. I’ve never used it. However, a lot of users here swear by & recommend it highly.
    However, there is a warning for *native English speakers*. Make sure you keep BOTH English and English (United States).
    Other Resources:
    HD Space Checkers:
    Disk Inventory X (FREE)
    WhatSize (SHAREWARE)
    OmniDiskSweeper (FREE)
    GrandPerspective (FREE - donation)
    Slimming your hard drive
    Rule of thumb: You should never let your hard drive get to where you have only 10-15% of space left.

  • Macbook Pro CPU system usage up to 98% for no reason

    Hi
    I really hope someone can help me out here as I am really lost at the moment. This is my first post so I apologise in advance in case I posted in the wrong forum.
    I updated my Macbook Pro (late 07 model) last week with 10.5.7 and smc 1.3 (software update not combo). My MBP has 4GB ram, all previous updates installed without any hitches and no new programs installed.
    Ever since then I have been having trouble with my MBP, mainly it would get really sluggish after one hour (almost to the second, no kidding, I timed it). I use Activity Monitor and Console to see what's hogging the machine can see that the CPU system usage goes to 95%+ while no new activities/programs have been launched.
    I tried many 'remedies' such as reinstalled the update using the combo download, disabled spotlight, disabled mobileme, reset smc/pram, turned off screen sharing and all to no avail.
    I reside in Asia bought my MBP here and therefore don't get to call Apple and ask their technicians and the two advises I got from the dealers here are (1) I am now a proud owner of a MBP brick and (2) I might get a chance to 'resurrect' it when there's a smc 1.4 update.
    Any help is appreciated.
    Thanks.
    It then gets

    Yes you are right. I did not ask AM to 'Show All Processes' just 'My Processes'. After reading your post I restarted my MBP, started AM straight away, chose 'Show All Processes' and waited... Sure enough, the most likely 'culprit' is 'AgentDaemon'.
    After some googling I found that it maybe related to a program called 'Network Magic' which I have been using for a year and a half and survived previous system upgrades by Apple.
    I shall look for a way to safely and cleanly remove this program from my system.
    Thank you very much for your help.
