Master database logical file names are different - Please Help!

Today I noticed that one of the server in our environment,
when i run
SELECT *
FROM sys.database_files
i got results
data_space_id name
1 master2
0 master_Log2
Please note logical name of the master database files.
But, in SSMS if i right click and choose properties for master database, it shows logical file names are master, mastlog.
How can this be happened? How can i fix this issue and make it both same names for master database?
Please help!

How to create the logical file name

Hi All,
    I have requirement where i need to post the Inventory Management data. for this i need to execute std. program RM07MMBL which is having logical file name in the selection screen. but i have placed my input file in application server.
   Can any one tell how to create the Logical filename which refers the physical path. I also tried <b>t-code SF01 & Table - FILENAMEC</b>I and found that we need to add an entry in this table but i really dont know how we have to do since this table cannot be maintained in SM30 also..
Help Me.
Thanks in Advance!...
Regards,
Ramkumar

Hi Ram,
Try using FILE transaction code...
Follow these steps to create:::
Double click on Logical file Path Definition
Click on New Entries,
Give Logical file Path name as Z_LOGICAL PATH and save it
now choose this path and double click on Assignemt of Physical path to Logical path
double click on the OS name
Give some description and give some Physical path name from AL11 transaction and save it
Now Double click on Logical File Name Definition,
Click on New Entries,
Give some logical file name: Z_LOGICAL_FILENAME
Physical file: test
Data Format: BIN
Logical Path: Z_LOGICAL PATH
Hope this helps

Logical file name or logical path name incorrectly defined

Dear All,
We are doing archival in our IDES for test purpose before we do it to our Production.
Steps Performed
Copied AM_ASSET archive object to ZAM_ASSET
Logical Path
Logical path    ZAM_ASSET
Name            Asset
Syntax group    UNIX       Unix compatible
Physical path   /archive/test/<FILENAME>
Logical File Name
   Logical file    ZAMASSET
   Name            Asset
   Physical file   FI_<MONTH>_<DAY>.txt
   Data format     ASC
   Applicat.area   AM
   Logical path    ZAM_ASSET
But when we run the WRITE though SARA , in the job log we get the following
Logical file name or logical path name incorrectly defined
When generating a file name for an archive file that is to be created, the system determined that the logical file name FIAA_ARCHIVE_DATA_FILE or the logical path name ARCHIVE_GLOBAL_PATH was defined incorrectly.
But we have maintained a Logical name ZAMASSET , so we are unable to change the location of archived file and as well as the format.
So is there any setting we need to maintain apart from the logical file name and logical file path.
Suggestions are highly appreciated.
Thanks in anticipation

hi,
follow this steps :
- transaction SARA
- enter authorization objects, eg SD_VBAK
- hit button CUSTOMIZING
- Archiving Object-Specific Customizing: execute Technical Setting
- field Logical File Name enter or select ARCHIVE_DATA_FILE
- leave CONTENT REPOSITORY as blank if you are not using 3rd party for storing (eg. IBM Tivoli)
- back to customizing
- from Basis Customizing, execute : Cross-Client File Names/Paths
- on Logical FIle Path Definition, highlight (select) ARCHIVE_GLOBAL_PATH on the right pane
- double click on the Assignment of Physical Paths to Logical Path on the left pane
- double click on OS used, eg. UNIX, define Physical Path where archive file (on WRITE process) will be stored
- save changes made
- double click Logical File Definition, Cross Client on the left pane
- double click ARCHIVE_DATA_FILE on the right pane
- make sure that logical path is already set to ARCHIVE_GLOBAL_PATH
- save changes made
this setting also can be done using transaction FILE
we have experienced on this case using SAP standard archiving (SARA, SARI) and everything is fine with this setting above.
hope it help you.

OHD - Logical File Name

Hello all,
I have a question about using a logical file name in an OHD (BI 7.0). Because we need to transport the OHD to a different server, we cannot use the File option in defining the OHD. We need to use the option, Logical File. In t-Code FILE, we cannot seem to create a physical path that the OHD recognizes.
This is the path in AL11 where we want the file to end up: /usr/sap/BIP/DVEBMGS17/work/GGLF010.CSV with a server of prdsap01. We are creating the OHD in a different system with a different server and path. How should the physical path (mapped to the logical path) be defined. I know we have to use <FILENAME> to represent the OHD output file (GGLF010). What variables do we use for the rest of the path? Do the variables have to be specifically defined or are they delivered by SAP?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Sheila

I don't know if this is relevant to this issue, but seems related.
When using OHD I noticed that two files are produced, the data file and the header file, unfortunatly when writing to the application server the file names output are identical. Therefore the header file overwrites the data file - anyone else experience this???
It is not possible to do anything about this using FILE settings so as a workaround (becasue I couldn't find/ an OSS note) I modified the standard class to ensure the data and header files names were unique:
METHOD: DETERMINE_FILENAME of class CL_RSB_FILE_GENERAL
o_filename_ctrl = l_filename.
*{ INSERT
*SAP BUG RENAMING HEADER FILE ELSE DUPLICATE FILES WILL OCCUR!!!
REPLACE '.CSV' IN o_filename_ctrl with '_HDR.CSV'.
*} INSERT
clear n_requid_current.
endmethod.
This assumes that the file output has .CSV as a file extension. This worked and now I get both the header and the data file.
If anyone could let me know if you have experienced this and how you resolved it would be nice.
cheers,
Asep

How to creat the logical file name.

Hello All,

FU FILE_GET_NAME
Text
Assign the Physical File Name Using a Logical File Name
Functionality
R/3 applications run on various platforms with various file systems. This function module enables you to use platform-independent logical file names in your application programs.
Based on definitions maintained in customizing tables for platform-independent file names, the function module converts a logical file name to the corresponding physical file name and path for the hardware platform concerned.
For this conversion to work for different platforms, the definition of a logical file name must include a logical file path, which in turn is converted to different physical file paths, depending on the particular platform. The platform-specific file name returned by the function module is composed of the physical file path for the current platform and the physical file name associated with the logical file name. Placeholders in physical file and path names are substituted at runtime by the corresponding current values.
Example
logical file name: MONTHLY_SALES_FILE
physical file name: VALUES<PARAM_1>
logical path: SALES_DATA_PATH
physical path (UNIX): /usr/<SYSID>/<FILENAME>
physical path (Windows): C:\SALES\<FILENAME>
Example 1
Get file name for UNIX platform
(current system: K11)
CALL FUNCTION 'FILE_GET_NAME'
EXPORTING
LOGICAL_FILENAME = 'MONTHLY_SALES_FILE'
IMPORTING
FILE_NAME = FILE
FILE_FORMAT = FORMAT.
Result:
FILE = /usr/K11/VALUES
FORMAT = WK1
Example 2
Get file name for UNIX platform, passing a parameter
(current system: K11)
CALL FUNCTION 'FILE_GET_NAME'
EXPORTING
LOGICAL_FILENAME = 'MONTHLY_SALES_FILE'
PARAMETER_1 = '_TST'
IMPORTING
FILE_NAME = FILE
FILE_FORMAT = FORMAT.
Result:
FILE = /usr/K11/VALUES_TST
FORMAT = WK1
Example 3
Get file name for WINDOWS platform, with file name extension
CALL FUNCTION 'FILE_GET_NAME'
EXPORTING
LOGICAL_FILENAME = 'MONTHLY_SALES_FILE'
WITH_FILE_EXTENSION = 'X'
IMPORTING
FILE_NAME = FILE
FILE_FORMAT = FORMAT.
Result:
FILE = C:\SALES\VALUES.WK1
FORMAT = WK1
Notes
All definitions needed for the platform-independent assignment of file names are maintained client-independently with transaction FILE. Logical file names (but not logical file paths) can also be defined specifically for the current client with transaction SF01. Transaction SF07 generates a list of current definitions.
The following concepts are used in the platform-independent assignment of file names:
Logical file name
A descriptive name for a file which is associated with these values:
physical file name
file format
logical file path.
If no logical file path is specified, the function module returns the physical file name only; placeholders are substituted by current values.
Physical file name
The physical file name may contain placeholders.
Logical file path
A descriptive name for a path which is associated with these values:
syntax groups (groups of operating systems)
physical file paths.
Physical file path
The physical file path is defined for a particular syntax group. It must contain the reserved word <FILENAME> as a placeholder for the file name. It may also contain other placeholders.
Operating system
Presentation server and application server can run under different operating systems. The current value for the application server can be obtained from the system field SY-OPSYS, the value for the presentation server by calling function module WS_QUERY.
Both operating systems must be defined and assigned to a syntax group.
Syntax group
Group of operating systems with a common syntax for file and path names (e.g. HP-UX and SINIX).
Placeholder
Reserved words, set in angle brackets, which can be included in physical file and path names (e.g. <DATE>, <FILENAME>). You can find information on possible reserved words in the online help (F1 help) for the fields physical file name and physical file path when maintaining platform-independent file names with transaction FILE.
If the logical path associated with a logical file name does not specify a physical path for the current operating system (syntax group), the path stored in the profile parameter DIR_GLOBAL of the current system is used for generating a complete platform-specific file name.
Parameters
CLIENT
LOGICAL_FILENAME
OPERATING_SYSTEM
PARAMETER_1
PARAMETER_2
PARAMETER_3
USE_PRESENTATION_SERVER
WITH_FILE_EXTENSION
USE_BUFFER
ELEMINATE_BLANKS
EMERGENCY_FLAG
FILE_FORMAT
FILE_NAME
Exceptions
FILE_NOT_FOUND
Function Group
SFIL

Hi.
In file txn,
click on "Logical File Name Definition, Cross-Client" from the left.
Then click position and check for your logical file name.
If you dont get it, it means you need to create it. You can click on New Entries to create.
Thanks

Hoe to logical file name using "FILE" transcation

I want to create a logical file name using "FILE" transaction , i have file path '/xfer/OUT/IDD0230 ' that cureently hard coded in program but i want to avoid hard code .

You need to go to FILE transction, create new entry.
You need to specify Physical name i.e value hardcoded in your program
and corresponding new Logical Path which enduser will be entering.
In code u ned to decode Logical path to physical path as its actual path.
Award points if helpful.

In LSMW while executing the specify file step logical file name and path.

Hi ,
In LSMW , while executing the specify file step, logical file name and path is mandatory field to entry, but in some of other LSMW objects, these fields are not mandatory one, i want to know is it possible for me to do hide the logical file name and path field in specify file step.
thanks
Md nisar

Hi,
For some Transactions while executing the Specify file step Logical File and Logical Path are mandatory.
In this case Converted file will be stored in the application server. According to the specified Logical File and Logical path.
Hope this will help you....
