Isolate app server from external RFC's, idocs

There is a server in our SAP R3 landscape that needs to be isolated both from user logon, external communiction like idocs and also load balancing of batch jobs to this server.
The user logon is no issue, config via SMLG by not including the server in the logon groups.
The external idoc coming in is still an issue to be addressed.
So is the batch job issue. This server requires background processes. But we don't want general batch jobs load balanaced to this server.
If idocs were balanced to that server, potentially they would wait (because of heavy procesing occuring on this server) and could processes to backup.
Can these be eliminated via usage of RZ12? By default a server in the environment will be in that group.
Could the server effectively be isolated by creating some bogus server logon group and assigning the server to it?
So 2 issues:
1. isolate server from idocs
2. isolate server from having batch jobs load balanced to it.
Any thoughts appreciated on this matter of isolating a server from the rest of the landscape so that it can be dedicated to a specific process.

We understand the issues of you as below.
1. isolate server from idocs (The external idoc coming in is still an issue to be addressed)
- As u already eliminated the target server from SMLG, User login are managed but why external IDOC's are coming.
View-1) if the IDOC's are coming from other ABAP System, Check the RFC Connections of Source ABAP System to This Target ABAP System, Are they using by any chance LOGON group "SPACE". if yes...pl assign it to a Custom LOGON GROUP of Source which does not include the application server you desire.
View-2) if the IDOC's are coming directly from an external NON-ABAP System, Analyze where the external RFC server is registered..Secondly.....How the Inbound IDOCS are processed by Function Module....Select " TRIGGER BY BACK GROUND PROGRAM" instead "TRIGGER IMMEDIATELY" to build a control thru which BATCH Server the INBOUND IDOCS are processed.
2. isolate server from having batch jobs load balanced to it.
This you can acheive it as Mr.Sunil Bujade said thru SM61 in this thread.
3. HTTP Logins to thru that application server
If your ECC System connected to a Portal , and you are experience some WEB logins (IC) login on this application server ,
Do not activate the parameters on the application server where you do not desire HTTP Connections, which will stop HTTP Logins.
icm/server_port_0
icm/host_name_full
login/accept_sso2_ticket
login/create_sso2_ticket
(or)
You should Disable / Deactivate ICM of application server said by Mr.Khaiser in this thread ( I think after every restart ).
If time allows have a look of these Notes.
SAP Note 0001385751 Deactivating background processing
SAP Note 0000786412 Determining execution server of jobs w/o target server
SAP Note 0001359508 Background server groups: Blank server name in server group
SAP Note 0000519059 FAQ: Background processing system
A Final Question,
In which scenario, A server is not for GUI LOGINS, not for Specific BATCH Jobs, not for HTTP Logins, is required.. May we request a Technical Scenario was required such application server which may be useful to connect to the requirement when similar demand in our landscape.

Upgrading My Oracle App Server from 10.1.2 to 10.1.3 without uninstalling ?

Hi All,
Is their any way we can just upgrade the app server from 10.1.2 to 10.1.3 with uninstalling the older 10.1.2 and reinstalling 10.1.3 ?
Thanks
Raghavendra

No and yes. Please note that 10.1.2 is a full release and 10.1.3 is a Java only release, i.e. no Portal, Forms, Reports, Discoverer, Web Cache etc.
Please check out the document "Oracle Application Server Upgrade and Compatibility Guide" on the Documentation Disk for 10.1.3.
http://download-east.oracle.com/docs/cd/B25221_04/getstart.htm
Check chapter 1.2 "What Does It Mean to Upgrade to 10g Release 3 (10.1.3)?"

Need to make periodic request to App Server from NSAPI SAF

I have to send a keep alive ping to a existing Session on our app server from a NSAPI SAF on IWS6.
First, is making a direct socket call the best way to handle it or is there another suggestion for sending the request.
Second, if using the direct socket connection is the way to go do I need to use the net_* methods within the NSAPI code or can I use native socket code.
Third, will there be any issues with making this type of socket call from a spawned thread, and can I use the native threads on Sun Solarias.
Some code examples would be very helpful since I can't find much at all on the site.

NSAPI doesn't expose any infrastructure for managing outbound connections, and the list of supported net_* functions does not include socket, bind, or connect analogs. You are probably best off using native socket code.
On Solaris, you can create your thread using the NSAPI systhread_create function or the Solaris pthread_create or thr_create functions. Note that you should not call NSAPI functions from a thread you create yourself unless you first call the NSAPI prepare_nsapi_thread function.

Accessing txt files in the App server from web application

Hi All,
We have a use case, where we need to access txt files from the ADF web application.
We will display to the user the path of the file and whenever he/she clicks, it should be downloaded automatically to the users machine.
Environments we need to develop: JDeveloper 10.1.3.4 and Oracle App Server 10.1.3.1
And our server has credentials and only those who have access to the server can access the files.
Point me or suggest me a good solution to this use case.
Regards,
Naga.

Hi Joonas,
i was able to download the files, thanks a lot for your guidance. i will mark your answer as correct.
Can you let me know how to achieve the following usecase.
1. there will be multiple text files in the server i.e., out of our web application context like in some folder
2. And we need to give user a http link and if he clicks on the link that file should be downloaded automatically to his machine.
and we are using oracle app server 10.1.3.4, please point me to some document or example.
thank you.

Adobe LiveCycle ES 8.2 Installation Error can't configure the App Server from Config Manager

Hello All-
We are trying to install the Adobe LiveCycle ES 8.2 SP2 and we are getting some issues while configuring the Application Server from the Config Manager, not sure why are those showing up, we never had these issues before when we installed 8.0, please look at the lcm log and the screenshot I provided for the errors which we are getting.
We are trying to configure the remote Application Server WebSphere on Linux from my machine which is on Windows and i made the target Application Server as WebSphere and target platform as linux when i initially installed the livecycle media.
The LCM logs say it failed to run the jacl scripts in the LiveCycle root directory and we wonder why is it pointing for the target Application Server to the Application Server which resides on my machine rather than it should point to the one on server. I am not sure what's going on and we did exactly what we did for 8.0.
Below are the environment details where we are trying to install.
Adobe LiveCycle ES: 8.2 SP2
Database: IBM DB2 9.1 FP4.
JVM Version and Vendor: 1.5.0 IBM Corporation
Application server: IBM WebSphere Application Server/6.1.0.19
Operating System: Linux
Hardware: x86 .
Any help will be appreciated!
Thanks-
Karthik.

Hi All,
Even i was facing the same issue but i was able to resolve it.
Although the earlier reply from karthik_chowdary was sent way back in 2008 and i think would have got resolved till now, but still the resolution which i have found is
The port i was using on the app server conf screen was that of application server HTTP Port.
But here in case of WebSphere ND, we need to use port specified in WAS UI > System administrator > Deployment manager > Ports
Try using that by default it is 8879.
And this resolved the issue.

Upgrading Oracle Apps Server from 10g (10.1.3.0) to 10.1.3.5

Have the following question.
First time upgrading Oracle Apps Server. So not that familiar in this area.
1. Step 6.1.2 in Oracle Application Server Patch Set Notes it says 
If you are applying 10g Release 3 (10.1.3) Patch Set 5 (10.1.3.5.0) to a 10g Release 3 (10.1.3.0.0) Oracle home and your system uses Enterprise Javabeans 3.0 applications, then you must undeploy your applications before applying the patch 
When I try to start Application Server Control I get the following error, please advice

Do we have to undeploye EJB3.0

Hi,
It seems like you are upgrading E-Business Suite . If thats the case its better post the problem in Ebiz forum. Also post the document id you are following, your app and db release, OS release. We do not deploy J2EE applications on Ebiz Tech Stack app server. So un-deployment should not be applicable here.

Patching only forms on app-server from 10.1.2.2 to 10.1.2.3 possible?

Hello!
We have an application-server 10gR2 with the full patchset 2 running on an aix-machine for some years now.
This has the forms-server 10.1.2.2 running.
Our forms applications run on the client with JRE (1.5, 1.6) and use webutil without problems.
To support IE8 and Windows7 for our forms-clients we need Forms-Version 10.1.2.3 as stated in the certification-matrix.
As installing the Full Patchset3 on the AIX application-server seems to bee a pain, I would like to know, if it is possible - an supported - to ONLY patch the forms-component on the application-server and leave all other components untouched?
For Patching the app-serv I've found:
Oracle Application Server 10g Release 2 (10.1.2) Support Status and Alerts [ID 329361.1]
Note 415222.1 Steps to Maintain Oracle Application Server 10g Release 2 (10.1.2)
and Forms Servlet (frmsrv.jar) Not Updated After Patching to 10.1.2.3 [ID 1058514.1]
and there seems to bee an "Forms-Patch Bundle"
and Note 1188127.1 Oracle Forms 10.1.2.3 Bundle Patch Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
and ...
Any ideas or hints, if patching only forms is possible?
BTW: There was no real test-environment set up :-( . So I can only clone the prod-env. And with that I have to change the ip and hostname of the app-serv which is another story...
Thanks for any hints - charly

No, you have to apply the full patch.
As installing the Full Patchset3 on the AIX application-server seems to bee a painThis is not a good reason to avoid applying a patch. This is common in all infrastructures, not just Oracle.

Passing message text from external RFC server into SAP EXCEPTION parameter

In function module CREDIT_CARD_SETTLEMENT the following DYNAMIC function module call exists:
------ Send items for settlement to a RFC function -------------------
    CALL FUNCTION l_fnset
         DESTINATION l_rfcset
         EXPORTING   i_ccseth                = i_ccseth
         TABLES      t_settab                = t_settab
                     t_setexd_h              = t_setexd_h
                     t_setexd_i              = t_setexd_i
         EXCEPTIONS system_failure          = 01 MESSAGE rfc_msg_text
                     communication_failure   = 02 MESSAGE rfc_msg_text
                     call_function_not_found = 03.
This is the code which calls an external credit card application server. I'm trying to figure out how, on the server side, I can return a message into the rfc_msg_text variable on the system_failure or communication_failure EXCEPTIONS.
Ive found several examples of this construct in ABAP code in the SAP side but I cant for the life of me find anything that shows how to set this up in our external server.
There are several SAP function modules like RFC_PING that have similar constructs but I cant see the compiled C code to tell what command to use to fill in that text. I can raise the exception, just not fill in the text.
Any ideas?

Hi Eric,
I do not quite understand the problem.
Is there an external NON-SAP system, that needs to do the call?
Within any external SAP system (inside the RFC Function Module) you can raise exceptions in the following manner:
MESSAGE e398(00) WITH par1 par2 par3 par4 RAISING exception_1.
Message 398 in class 00 contains only & & & & as text.
Each & is replaced by par1 through par4.
Suppose par1='Order' par2='1234' par3='invalid' par4=''.
Then a message would be build like: Order 1234 invalid.
This all would reside in the remote called function module.
When you call this module and after any exception in the call the addition MESSAGE rfc_msg_txt was put, then the variable rfc_msg_txt='Order 1234 invalid'.
But as already stated before, i'm not quite sure what the problem is. Shed some light to it.
Greetz,
Rob.

Can I use same IP to static to internal server from external dedicated ip?

M question is would it cause my problems if I had the outside interface external ip mapped to vlan2 with the same ip address as I am trying to create static route to my server? Or is this OK? Keep in mind these are imaginary ips.
I was trying to use this command but it was not letting me:
static (inside,outside) tcp 99.89.69.333 3389 192.168.6.2 3389 netmask 255.255.255.255
Here is the front end of my config
ASA Version 7.2(4)
hostname ciscoasa
domain-name default.domain.invalid
enable password DowJbZ7jrm5Nkm5B encrypted
passwd 2KFQnbNIdI.2KYOU encrypted
names
interface Vlan1
nameif inside
security-level 100
ip address 192.168.6.254 255.255.255.0
interface Vlan2
nameif outside
security-level 0
ip address 99.89.69.333 255.255.255.248
interface Ethernet0/0
switchport access vlan 2
interface Ethernet0/1

Since you are using the outside interface ip address in your static PAT, you should use the keyword "interface" as follows:
static (inside,outside) tcp interface 3389 192.168.6.2 3389 netmask 255.255.255.255

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

How to Get Host Name Domain Name : Port No. for App Server From Forms

Forms 10g r2
I am looking to run various forms and reports from within a form. I am using web_show_document. I am passing the URL which includes "http://{host name . domain name : port number}/forms/frmservlet?config=schema1_schema2 form=ab0001 p_param1=151 p_param2=1409 p_x=X". My schema1_schema2 config section in formsweb.cfg contains user name, password, connection information.
All works well when the actual host_name.domain_name:port_no are hard-coded within a string that is used for the URL with web_show_document, but I need to be able to distribute the form without hard-coding the host_name, domain_name, and port_no.
I have looked in forms help for application properties, system variables, and within this forum for the built-in or system variable that returns this information, but have not found it.
Can someone please tell me how I can get this information (host_name, domain_name, and port_number for the application server on which the form is currently running) so that I can build this working URL dynamically?
I appologize if I have overlooked it within this forum.
Thanks greatly,
James

Thanks, Rosario.
As it turns out, I don't need the IAS Host_Name, Domain_name, and Port_No. Instead, I can do what I described by stripping off precisely THAT information leaving a URL that looks like:
v_url := "/forms/frmservlet?config=schema1_schema2 form=ab0001 p_param1=151 p_param2=1409 p_x=X";
WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT(v_url,'_blank');
The original IAS Host_Name, Domain_Name, and Port_No. are assumed and the named config -- schema1_schema2 is still properly referenced so as to use the username/password and connect string to the 2nd schema. This is done by use of the relative path.

What is the difference between rfc and idoc

hi,
My name is rambabu.can anyone of u please tell me the main differences between idoc and rfc??
Thanks in Advance

hi Ramesh,
Remote Function Calls (RFC) and data exchange through IDoc
message documents. RFC makes direct and synchronous calls of a program in
the remote system. If the caller is an external program it will call an
RFC-enabled function in R/3 and if the calling program is the R/3 system
it will call an RFC-function in another R/3-system or it will call a
non-R/3 program through a gateway-proxy (usually rfcexec.exe). BAPIs are
a subset of the RFC-enabled function modules, especially designed as
Application Programming Interface (API) to the SAP business object, or in
other words: are function modules officially released by SAP to be called
from external programs.
IDocs are text encoded documents with a rigid structure that are used to
exchange data between R/3 and a foreign system. Instead of calling a
program in the destination system directly, the data is first packed into
an IDoc and then sent to the receiving system, where it is analyzed and
properly processed. Therefore an IDoc data exchange is always an
asynchronous process. The significant difference between simple RFC-calls
and IDoc data exchange is the fact, that every action performed on IDocs
are protocolled by R/3 and IDocs can be reprocessed if an error occurred
in one of the message steps.
While IDocs have to be understood as a data exchange protocol, EDI and ALE
are typical use cases for IDocs. R/3 uses IDocs for both EDI and ALE to
deliver data to the receiving system. ALE is basically the scheduling
mechanism that defines when and between which partners and what kind of
data will be exchanged on a regular or event triggered basis. Such a
set-up is called an ALE-scenario.

App Server 8.1 remote acess

Hi,
I am trying to connect to a Sun App Server from the JMS client application: SimpleProducer from chapter 33 of http://java.sun.com/j2ee/1.4/docs/tutorial/doc/index.html
It works fine when run on the same machine where the server is running. But when I try it from a remote machine, I get an infinite chain of error messages beginning with:
Destination name is jms/Queue

When the server is local I run this command from the simple/build directory:

and it works successfully.
From a remote machine I run the below command from the simple/build
directory:
#java -Dorg.omg.CORBA.ORBInitialHost=myservername SimpleProducer
jms/Queue
Sounds that at some point the application is trying to connect to the localhost. Specifying a properties file as below does not help either.

java.naming.provider.url=iiop://myservername:3700java.naming.factory.state=com.sun.corba.ee.impl.presentation.rmi.JNDIStateFactoryImpl
Running those applications to access a local server works fine on both machines. I want to have a client accessing the server remotely. Do I need to edit/compile source code of those applications in some other way? Isn't specifying a remote server from command line enough? I have tried any suggestions found on the Internet or anything coming to my mind but no success so far. I appreciate any clues.
thanks,
Farshad

Apparently, the system tries to connect to the localhost at some point! I changed the jndi.properties to:
java.naming.factory.initial=com.sun.enterprise.naming.SerialInitContextFactory
org.omg.CORBA.ORBInitialHost=myservername
org.omg.CORBA.ORBInitialPort=3700
java.naming.provider.url=iiop://myservername:3700
Now, executing
#java -Djms.properties=jndi.properties SimpleProducer jms/Queue
gives the below message while if I change "myservername" to "localhost" and run an App Server locally it works quite fine. What am I missing?! Isn't it enough to have a remote server name in that jndi.properties to make the same application work with a remote server? I appreciate any help.

10.1.2.3 app server, xml, and Module version="101020300" and upgrade=yes

We upgraded our app server from 10.1.2.2 to 10.1.2.3. I converted some of our Oracle Forms to xml before upgrading. I noticed the following "Module version" element and value? What version of Oracle Forms is this 10.1.0.2 , 10.1.2.2, or 10.1.2.3. When I add upgrade=yes on the compile line the fmb file dates do not change and the xml version tag stays the same in unix. Whenver I do this on windows the files dates of the fmbs do change, but the version tag also stays the same. Is it possible the 10.1.2.3 compiler uses 10.1.0.2 version for fmbs and knows there is nothing to change so it leaves the fmb untouched when upgrade=yes?
<?xml version = '1.0' encoding = 'UTF-8'?>

Although the "upgrade" option does not throw an error, it really doesn't apply any longer. It was used historically to convert SqlForms to Forms Menu Modules. Here is the text from the Forms Online help for this option:
Upgrades modules from Oracle Forms 4.5, or from SQL*Menu 5.0, to an Oracle Forms menu module.You gain nothing from including "upgrade=yes" when you compile your 10.1.2 modules.
Regarding the Module version you see in the XML or FMT, this version represents the engine used to create the module and not the Forms version. This version will not necessarily line up with the Forms version to which you are accustom to viewing. This is more of an internal reference. Your form's modules will not change in any way when you patch from 10.1.2.0 to 10.1.2.2 to 10.1.2.3. This is why there is generally no need to recompile when you patch. The changes are made in our product and not your app.
