Hello Yuvaraj M B,
first, update the target database to the vestion of the source database kernel including the LCAPPS.
Then run the copy procedure using backup/restore.
See note 457425.
Pay attention to Reason and Prerequisites section:
"4. The same liveCache version is installed on the target host and the source host."

HI there,
why don't you take a closer look to what is in the message?
> Internal errorcode, Error code 9050 "disk_not_accessible"
> 20017,RestartFilesystem failed with 'I/O error'
> ERROR : Restart not possible (please check KnlMsg)
There is a problem with the liveCache disks.
This problem prevents that the liveCache can be started.
For more information you should look into the KNLMSG file.
Why don't you just do that?
The file will tell you what file is the problem and what kind of problem there is with the file.

SCM + Live cache

Hi All,
we are planning to install SCM Server version 5.0 with live cache server ,
please help on connectivity with Live cache server
In SCm 4 it is inbuit , does we require separate Live cache server for any SCm Version
We are stuck on this ,
please help
Thanks & Regds
Manish

Hi Manish
Yes, you would need a seperate server for Live Cache, we just completed installation of SCM 5.1 with LiveCache 7.7
Install the Live Cache 7.7 as per the install guide (This is MAX DB not Oracle) or the version you need on a seperate server.
You can do this install before you install SCM system, when you are in the install process of SCM system it will prompt you to enter LiveCache details. Or if you wish you can do it later.
IMP: There will not be any GUI to start and stop Live Cache alone, start and stop of Live Cache happens from SCM system using the transaction LC10.
Once both systems are up and running, use LC10 from SCM system to complete the post install steps and complete the configuration. DO NOT GET CONFUSED WITH POST INSTALLTION PART in the Live Cache install guide, these should be done from SCM system.
Backups: You need seperate backups for SCM and for LCA (Standard SAP naming convention for LiveCache Database)
Hope this helps. Let me know if you understand this.
Thanks

Installing Live Cache Server on SCM 4.1 system

Hi All,
I have installed an SCM 4.1 Abap + Java System and Live cache client was installed during SCM 4.1 installation.
I would like to install Live cache server and i have problems with it.
I have downloaded the following installation guide
SAP liveCache 7.5.0 For SAP SCM Server 4.1
Document Version 1.02 u2013 April 8th, 2005
Guide tells us to use installation master CD for installating Live cache Server but note 708118 tells us to use the CD 51031447
04 Nov 05 Windows AMD64: Start Installation from liveCache CD
Start the installation of the liveCache server or client from the liveCache
CD (number 51031447) and not from the installation master CD (number
51031443)
Upon checking the cd 51031447 i see SDBINST.exe and upon clicking it i get the following screen

Hi All,
I went ahead with Option 0 and it asked me for Kernel file and i provided the files.
I checked logs in /sapdb/wrk directory and i see that Installation of SAP livecache finished successfully.

SCM5.0 Live Cache issue

Hello,
I am a newer from SCM5.0. I have 2 questions regarding live cache for SCM5.0.
1) if I want to run SNP or PP/DS, the live cache is necessary. that means, we MUST install live cache for APO planning run.
2) From now on, no 32 bit live cache version for SCM5.0. I can just install 64 bit live cache version for SCM5.0. right?
Could anyone give me some comments on the 2 issue? thanks in advance.
Best Regards,
Karl

Hi Karl,
1. In APO whatever runs you take there should be liveCache. The data will be refreshed from database to livecache and is accessed.
In APO data is stored either order series or time series.
2. Yes you have to install 64 bit.

What are the possible live cache issues turn up for demand planning?

HI all,
Can anyone tell me the issues that may arise iin live cache and how to ensure the performance and maintenace of live cache that a planning area is utilizing it.
if the utilization is high how to bring it down!!
Can anyone pls guide me on this!!!
Thanks
Pooja

Hi Pooja,
1) Accumulation of logs created during demand planning jobs will have an impact on performance
and affect livecache and hence to be cleared periodically
2) Livecache consistency check to be performance at planned intervals
which will reduce livecache issues
3) Through om13 transaction, you can analyse the livecache and LCA objects
and act accordingly
4) You can also carry out /SAPAPO/PSTRUCONS - Consistency Check for Planning Object
Structure and /SAPAPO/TSCONS - Consistency Check for Time Series Network related to
demand planning to avoid livecache issues later

Hi having a problem upgrading SCM 4.1 APO Live Cache

Hi I am new to SCM and I came into a project that was already started, I am doing a SUM upgrade and its at the upgrade of Live Cache I need to run the report /SAPAPO/OM_LC_UPGRADE_70 and perform all steps in section A. when I try to run the report it comes back "No shared library for the database with ID LCA" I checked LC10 and saw in the Settings that the database is still pointing back to the source system it was copied from. Like I said I walked into this in the middle the they are upgrading from SCM 4.1 to 7.0EHP3 on SQL 2012 and Windows 2012 so they built the 2012 Vm installed the Central services and when they installed the DB it was an attach / detach method and I installed the DB instance. Question should any of the file directories have come with the attach db there are no sapdb in the directories do I just install the live cache and that installs the maxdb and makes the directories /sapdb/ because I see them in the source system? I tried installing the live cache that came with the original system but it had errors.

Hi All,

Unable to delete Order does not exist in live cache but in table POSMAPN

Hi Experts,
We are facing an issue where purchase order is not available in live cache (which means no GUID) but exists in database table POSMAPN. We have tried to delete it using standard SAP inconsistent order deletion program and also using BAPI BAPI_POSRVAPS_DELMULTI but not able to delete it.
Can anybody suggest a method by which we can get rid of this order from the system.
Thanks a lot.
Best Regards,
Chandan

Hi Chandan,
Apologize me for taking your question in a wrong perspective. If you want to delete the same then you need to Re-CIF the order from ECC so that it would come and sit in Live Cache. Once done, try using the BAPI.
If you are not successful with the above approach try running the consistency report /SAPAPO/SDRQCR21 in APO system
so that it first corrects the inconsistency between ECC and APO (Live Cache + DB tables) and then use the BAPI to delete the PO.
Not sure if you have tried this way. If this does not solve your purpose you need to check SAP Notes.
Thanks,
Babu Kilari

What is the significance of Live Cache in demand planning ?

Hi all,
Can anyone explain me significance of live cache in the demand planning. What are the issues will turn up for live cache if it is not properly maintained?
Thanks
Pooja

Hi Pooja,
SAP has come up with Live cache concept for storage and most important, quick and efficient processing of transactional data. Its a layer between data base and GUI and even the search methods and storage space has been optimized due to its structure. In DP it is used for storage of time series data whereas in SNP it can store both time series and order series data.
Regarding your second query, it is recommended to have Live cache consistency on a periodic basis for synchrinising data between LC and database tables. You can face many issues due to LC inconsistency as incorrect time series generation, Transactional data discrepancy, COM routine errors during background processing etc.
Let me know if it helps

Gaurav

DBM Error return code -11 in LC10 Administration in SCM System Live Cache

Thanks and regards,
Vaibhav

Hello Vaibhav,
while using transaction LC10, the error 11 "tp error: Terminating. [nlsui0.c ...]" occurs. The user authorization with tp fails and the application server cannot connect to the liveCache.
I assumed, that it's due to a library version mismatch, tp cannot use the liveCahe UNICODE libraries.
Please check, that the tp call at the command line works properly. And a dbmcli call in the transaction SM49 with the tp options
(dbmcli ::
-d <LC-SID> -n <LC-servername> -tpp <profile> -tpi <system-SID>
-tpc <connection - LCA/LDA> dbm_version)
works also properly.
I recommend you to update the liveCache client software on the Application server.
If you've got access to OSS/Service Market Place, then please take a look at note
649814 how to update the liveCache client software on the application server.
< Please also review the SAP notes 847736 & 831108 >
Before the liveCache client version will be upgraded on the application
server you can use the workaround by switching off the central authorization for the liveCache LCA/LDA connections:
In transaction LC10, choose Integration and deactivate the option Central authorization, then save.
If you are the official SAP customer, I recommend you to create the ticket to SAP on 'BC-DB-LVC' queue.
Thank you and best regards, Natalia Khlopina
