Info on package size

Hi,
I would like to understand what does this setting means in infopackage
Maximum size of a data packet in kByte = 50000?
How do I determine what is the package size that is going to come from the source system? Is there any documentation or notes that tells what the suitable package size is?
Number of data packets per Info-IDoc = 10
How does records get divided per package? On what logic?
I extracted the data into PSA.
DP 1 = 8000 records
DP2 = 9500
DP3 = 8400.
The number of records is not same in all the packages. How does it work?
Thanks
Annie

The individual records are sent in packages of varying sizes in the data transfer to the Business Information Warehouse. Using these parameters you determine the maximum size of such a package and therefore how much of the main memory may be used for the creation of the data package.
SAP recommends a data package size between 10 and 50 MB.
if you transfer a lot of fields, you can transfer less lines...
if you transfer less fields, you transfer more lines,...

Maximum package size for data packages was exceeded and Process terminated

Hello Guru,
When i am execute the process chain i got this message Maximum package size for data packages was exceeded and Process terminated,any body help to me in this case how can i proceed.
Thanks & Regards,

Hi,
When the load is not getiing processed due to huge volume of data, or more number of records per data packet, Please try the below option.
1) Reduce the IDOC size to 8000 and number of data packets per IDOC as 10. This can be done in info package settings.
2) Run the load only to PSA.
3) Once the load is succesfull , then push the data to targets.
In this way you can overcome this issue.
You can also try RSCUSTV* where * is an integer to change data load settings.
Change Datapackage size for extraction, use Transaction RSCUSTV6.
Change Datapackage size when upload from an R/3 system, set this value in R/3 Customizing (SBIW -> General settings -> Control parameters for data transfer).
IN R/3, T-Code SBIW --> Genaral settings --> Maintain Control Parameters for Data Transfer (source system specific)
Hope this helps.

Installed package size and more

first question,
how do I know the final space required by a package and its dependencies on the hard disk after the install?
cos pacman gives an info about the size of the download but thats not necessary the final space required by the installation.
second, is there a way to make pacman install a package and its dependencies into a directory, for instance to check the structure of a certain package (sort of what slackware does)

tuxman wrote:thanks everybody for the feedback.
my purpose is to analize the way a package would look into the filesystem once installed, where goes this and that file, in order to create modules for a live CD.
You need pacman -Sl support which is not implemented yet.
tuxman wrote:I have a doubt about the info given by pacman at download time yet.
Currently Pacman ouptuts only the total size of packages to be installed/upgraded.This will be changed in the future versions.
tuxman wrote:For instance, if I make pacman -Su it will download a bunch of packages, lets say 100MB but they will overwrite the existing ones, so the final space claimed on the hard disk will be less than 100MB
Or maybe I got it wrong eheheh
Hmm... this is more complicated, I doubt this will be implemented soon (if ever).
IMHO it will be enough (and easy to implement) only total size of all packages to be downloaded.
Calculating the resulting size of packages to be installed minus packages to be removed (replaced) is more complex.

Data package size

What is the basic difference between RSCUSTV6 & SBIW->General setting ->Maintain Control parameters in relation of modification of data package format.

Hi,
Just see the help on
Maintain Control Parameters for Data Transfer:
1. Source System
Enter the logical system of your source client and assign the control parameters you selected to it.
You can find further information on the source client in the source system by choosing the path
Tools -> Administration -> Management -> Client Maintenance.
2. Maximum Size of the Data Package
When you transfer data into BW, the individual data records are sent in packages of variable size. You can use these parameters to control how large a typical data packet like this is.
If no entry was maintained then the data is transferred with a default setting of 10,000 kBytes per data packet. The memory requirement not only depends on the settings of the data package, but also on the size of the transfer structure and the memory requirement of the relevant extractor.
3. Maximum Number of Rows in a Data Package
With large data packages, the memory requirement mainly depends on the number of data recrods that are transferred with this package. Using this parameter you control the maximum number of data records that the data package should contain.
By default a maximum of 100,000 records are transferred per data package.
The maximum main memory requiremen per data package is approximately 2 Max. Rows 1000 Byte.
4. Frequency
The specified frequency determines the number of IDocs that an Info IDoc is to be sent to, or how many data IDocs an Info Idoc describes.
Frequency 1 is set by default.. This means that an Info Idoc follows every data Idoc. In general, you should select a frequency between 5 and 10 but no higher than 20.
The bigger the data IDoc packet, the lower the frequency setting should be. In this way, when you upload you can obtain information on the respective data loading in relatively short spans of time .
With the help of every Info IDoc, you can check the BW monitor to see if there are any errors in the loading process. If there are none, then the traffic light in the monitor will be green. The Info IDocs contain information such as whether the respective data IDocs were uploaded correctly.
5. Maximum number of parallel processes for the data transfer
An entry in this field is only relevant from release 3.1I onwards.
Enter a number larger than 0. The maximum number of parallel processes is set by default at 2. The ideal parameter selection depends on the configuration of the application server, which you use for transferring data.
6. Background job target system
Enter the name of the application server on which the extraction job is to be processed.
To determine the name of the application server, choose
Tools -> Administration -> Monitor -> System monitoring -> Server. The name of the application server is displayed in the column Computer.
7. Maximum Number of Data Packages in a Delta Request
With this parameter, you can restrict the number of data packages in a delta request or in the repetition of a delta request.
Only use this restriction when you expect delta requests with a very high data volume, so that, despite sufficiently large data package sizes, more than 1000 data packages can result in a request.
With an initial value or when the value is 0, there is no restriction. Only a value larger than 0 leads to a restriction in the number of data packages. For reasons of consistency, this number is not generally exactly adhered to. The actual restriction can, depending on how much the data is compressed in the qRFC queue , deviate from the given limit by up to 100.

Will it improve performance if PACKAGE SIZE added to a select query?

Hi Gurus
While doing the performance optimization I could see that in the code it is splitting the BKPF entries selected to a package of 500 and selecting from BSEG cluster table. In effect the remaining tables are also getting hit based on the no. of entries(packets) in the selected BKPF internal table.
Cant we use the package size 500 in the select statement instead of this spliting and hiting the tables in a do loop.
eg:-
      SELECT x v z
        FROM bseg
        APPENDING TABLE lt_bseg
        PACKAGE SIZE 500
        FOR ALL ENTRIES IN lt_coep
        WHERE bukrs = lt_coep-bukrs
        AND   belnr = lt_coep-belnr_fi
        AND   gjahr = lt_coep-gjahr.
When I read the keyword documentation I saw a note in that as " If the addition PACKAGE SIZE is specified together with FOR ALL ENTRIES, it is not passed to the database system, but is applied to the result set on the application server, after all selected rows have been read" I did not understand the meaning of this.
So I am confused whether I can go ahead with this approach or will go along with the already used BKPF split logic and selct from BSEG and other tables in DO loop.
Can you please help me << removed >>.
Thanks & Regards,
Shinimol.

Hi,
regarding your second doubt:
> Second doubt is on the note I saw in key word documentation. " If the addition PACKAGE SIZE is specified together with FOR ALL ENTRIES, it is not passed to the database system, but is applied to the result set on the application server, after all selected rows have been read. " I couldn't understnd this. When I debugged the select with F5 it was selecting 500 each till it reaches th end.
> So what does it mean, we can use this option or we should not use?
the FAE does your select in pieces and collects the result in the database interface in an inermediate buffer and
eliminates the duplicates there. AFTER this it gives you the number of rows back to your ABAP program that are specified with package size. It simply means that the package size addition has no effect on the memory consumptionfor the intermediate
buffer in the database interface.
Kind regards,
Hermann

Issue when number of records in a DSO exceeds DTP package size

Hi all,
I'm having a strange problem with the package size of my DTPs.
I move data from a DSO to another one while performing some transformations in an Export routine. The DTP has a package size of 6 million records.
When the number of records in the first DSO exceeds the package size, some of the records seem not to be processed properly by the transformation and this forces me to choose a very large number for the package size so that the ABAP code in the transformation is processed for all the records of the source DSO.
I can't understand why this is happening because package size is only supposed to determine the number of records to be processed in a single step and nothing else.
Am I right?
Thanks

My tip would also be the summary item

Package Size parameter in Partner Profile

Hello guys,
I'd need your advice. We have 2 systems (SAP and Non-SAP) and we need to connect them by mean of HR-PDC interface (IDoc communication is supported). We can create new Partner Profile in SAP and we can add a few IDoc types as Inbound Parameters of the partner profile. Then it is possible to define maximal package size for several IDoc types. I suppose that the Non-SAP system reads the Partner Profile and the "Package Size" parameter for the particular IDoc type before it sends some IDoc to SAP system. IDoc's size is limited by the parameter.
And now our problem. We need to insert XI between these 2 systems. XI should only forward IDocs and nothing else. How could I set up limitation of IDoc's size? Do you thing that following scenarion could be working?
I would define Partner Profile in XI same way as in the previous case in SAP. XI is configured to process IDocs in Integration Server by means of IDoc adapter. My expectation is that the Non-SAP system would read the partner profile in XI (including "Package Size" parameter) and then it would send IDoc to XI. Then XI would process the received IDocs in IDoc adapter.
How can be "Package Size" parameter useful for inbound IDocs?

Zbynek

Need you help !!! -- How to set PACKAGE SIZE in CURSOR?

Dear experts:
Does anybody know how to set the package size if you use cursor in your abap program?
My scenario is to select all the data from MARA table in which the data volumn is very big, and then process for some specific logic. When I try to select them into one internal table or use CURSOR without package, my abap program will abort after running for around 1 hour. So I was thinking if I can use cursor and set the PACKAGE SIZE like 10,000 and process the data by batch.
Here is my sample code:
OPEN CURSOR: CUR_MARA_TBL FOR
SELECT * FROM MARA.
DO.
FETCH NEXT CURSOR CUR_MARA_TBL INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF WA_MARA_TBL.
IF sy-subrc = 0.
......Detail logic......
ENDIF.
ENDDO.
I would appreciate if anybody can let me know how to set the package size based on the sample code above, or any webpage/article about that.
Any reply would be appreciated and thank you all in advance!
Best Regards.
Tim

The Spark List's layout property has the requestedRowCount and requestedMinRowCount properties.
You can either set a new layout property on your List like this:
<s:List>
        <s:layout>
            <s:VerticalLayout requestedMinRowCount="1" />
        </s:layout>
    </s:List>
or reskin the List and modify the VerticalLayout in your copy of ListSkin.

Package size in ABAP program

Hi
we have requirement to pull data from OHD via data services to text file.
data services does this by an auto generated abap program which pulls all the data of OHD at one go.
since data volume of OHD is huge can we split the volume like defining package size we do in dtp.
any insight on how to incorporate it in ABAP program would be of immense help.

Hi,
Try dividing result output/ records by characteristics in the OHD by applying filters at DTP level.
An alternate way out could be get all data into table and have custom developed program to load specific number of records by reading the output table in to flat file. Once those many records have been written to file, create new file and move on to writing new set of records.
Hope that helps.

"Maximum package size for data packages was exceded".

Hi,
We are getting the below error.
"Maximum package size for data packages was exceded".
In our scenario we are loading the data product key wise (which is a semantic key as well) to the DSO thro’ a start routine.
The logic in the start routine is such a way that it calculates the unique product counts , product key wise. Hence we are trying to
group the product key thro’ semantic groups.
Ex: In this example the product counts should be A = 1,B=2 ,C = 1
Product Key
Products
A
1000100
B
2000100
C
3000100
B
2000300
C
3000100
For some product keys the data is so huge that we could not load the data & we are getting the error.
Please suggest any alternate way to handle this thro’ code or introducing any other flow.
Regards,
Barla

HI
we can solve the issue by opening the system setting of data packer size
like below we have create 2 programs, 1 for open the system settings,2 for
close the settings .
1 start program
data: z_roidocprms like table of
roidocprms.
data: wa like line of z_roidocprms.
wa-slogsys = 'system_client' . wa-maxsize = '50000'. wa-statfrqu = '10'.
wa-maxprocs = '6'. wa-maxlines = '50000'.
insert wa into table z_roidocprms.
Modify roidocprms from table z_roidocprms .
2 close program
data: z_roidocprms like table of roidocprms.
data: wa like line of z_roidocprms.
wa-slogsys = 'syetm_client' . wa-maxsize = '50000'. wa-statfrqu = '10'.
wa-maxprocs = '6'. wa-maxlines = '50000'.
insert wa into table z_roidocprms.
modify roidocprms from table z_roidocprms .
data load infopakage settings we have to maintain like
below
we have create the process chain like as below
1 start progarm
data load infopakage
2 close program.
This might fix the problem.

Polu.

From some reason (i'm not sure why..) my whole iphoto library got deleted. I restored the whole library from my backup. The photos are blank but steel have the photo info. (date, res., size etc.) Do you know what's the prob.? why can't i see my pics.

from some reason (i'm not sure why..) my whole iphoto library got deleted. I restored the whole library from my backup. Now all the photos are blank but steel have the photo info. (date, res., size etc.) Do you know what's the prob.? why can't i see my pics.

It's says that file does not exist. How come? And why does it still show the image info.?
Where can i find those files (i have a daily backup)
The original image files are missing form your iPhoto library or iPhoto cannot find them, because the link to the originals has been broken. The image info is stored in the internal libraries, independent of the original files. That is, why you are still seeing them.
I restored the whole library from my backup.
Try restoring from an older backup, from before you first noticed the problem.
How large is the library, that you restored? Is the file size large enough to hold all your photos, or has the size been reduced? If the library is still large, the photos may still be inside, even if iPhoto cannot find them.
It's says that file does not exist. How come?
What happened, before your iPhoto library got deleted? Which applications have you been running, or which new software have installed or upgraded? Have you moved the library to a different disk or tried to use it from different user account or access it over the network?

PACKAGE SIZE n in SELECT query

Hi,
When using PACKAGE SIZE n option with SELECT queries, how to determine the best/optimum value of n ? Especially when we use this for querying tables like EKPO, EKKO etc.
Regards,
Anand.

> When using PACKAGE SIZE n option with SELECT queries, how to determine the best/optimum value of n ?
The 'package size' option to the select specifies how many
rows are returned in one chunk.
According to ABAP-Doku, it is best to use it with an internal table:
DATA: itab TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF SCARR WITH NON-UNIQUE
DEFAULT KEY INITIAL SIZE 10.
FIELD-SYMBOLS: <FS> TYPE scarr.
SELECT * INTO TABLE itab PACKAGE SIZE 20 FROM scarr.
LOOP AT itab ASSIGNING <FS>.
WRITE: / <FS>-carrid, <FS>-carrname.
ENDLOOP.
ENDSELECT.
But, basically, your application's requirements determine
what's the best value for n.
If you don't want a lot of DB-access, you choose a high
value for n. If you don't want a lot of data in memory, you adjust it to a lower value.
You can also use the 'up to n rows' construct in the select to limit the number of rows fetched from the db.
