Logon Load Balancing error

Hi
I am trying to setup Logon Load Balancing for our ERP system, I have setup the logon groups in TX SMLG, the landscape consists of DB server app1 and app2, I have created a logon group for app1 and logon group for app2, I have then created a new system entry in the SAP Logon Pad under Group/Server Selection, here I have a problem in that when I enter the message server I get a message saying Error: hostname <message server> unknown, however when I enter the ip address for the message server I get the list of logon groups appear, however, I have entered the sapmsS02 3600/tcp setting within the services file, I have also added the ipaddress and the hostname of the message server into the hosts file, but I still cannot get the hostname to work within the message server.  When I test the logon I get the error message Logon Balancing Error 88: Cannot connect to message server (rc=9), I have searched the net and most people just suggest entering the details into the services file and host file, also a sap note which suggests issues within the registry for Microsft MSN which I have checked and still have the same issue.
Does anyone have anymore ideas as to what this could be or what to try next?
Thanks for your help
Jay

Dear Jay,
It is not the service that can not be resolved, that is translated into an IP address, but the hostname. It depends on your system and the way in which it does hostname resolution, whether the hosts file will be used at all. So please check with the keyword 'hostname resolution' on how to set this up on your landscape.
Best Regards,
Tim

  • Error while configuring logon load balancing

    Hi,
    I am trring to configure logon load balancing in cluster environment.
    I had created the logon group using T-Code SMLG and assigned the message server to logon group.
    I am using SAP GUI 720.
    In the front end system, i had added the host file entry as well as added u201Csapma<SID>  3600/tcpu201D as my CI instance number is 00.
    I had created u201Csapmsg.iniu201D and put the entries as below based on sapnote 38119
    Message Server
    System ID 1>=<Name or IP address of message server 1>
    Ex: <SID>=x.x.x.x
         <SID>=x.x.x.x
    Message Server Description
    <System ID 1>=<Description of message server 1>
    Ex: <SID>=CI
    But while selecting u201CGroup/Server Selectionu201D I am getting error   u201CError: partner x.x.x.x:sapms<SID> not reached u201C.
    On the logon pad I had given the following information:
    Description: PRD
    System ID: <SID>
    Message Server: IP address of CI package
    I am not able to find the exact reason of the error and how to proceed to resolve the error.

    Did you enter sapma<SID> or sapms<SID> to the services file on the Windows machine?

  • Load balancing error 88: Cannot connect to message server (rc=9)

    Hi,
    We are facing a problem in the system object.
    initially we created a system object with loadbalancing template ,and everything worked fine, but after couple of months we found a error "Load balancing error 88: Cannot connect to message server (rc=9)", so we have created a Dedicated application server object which resolved our issue.
    My question is why has this problem occured, and since my client side has lot number of users and we wish to keep the system back to load balancing object.
    How can i make my system object work back, what might be the causes?
    Thanks
    Srivastsa Kondapally

    Load balancing only works if the message server is available and the logon group specified exists as well.  If one of those changes, then it will break until you get the values set correctly.

  • Load balancing error 88

    Dear all,
    We are suddenly  facing a problem in the PRD system. There user are getting the below error and if they restart there system than  it is solved
    Load balancing error 88: Cannot connect to message server (rc=9)  
    few days back  We have upgrade the system from ecc5 to ecc6 and its only
    Please suggest why the error is coming and how to solved it
    Regards,
    Kumar

    check the /etc/services file for a proper port setting for the R/3 message server "sapms<sid>" at 36xx. You can try connecting the SAPgw directly to the dispatcher at port 32xx where XX is the instance number. If that connection is good, then it appears to be a logon load balancing configuration problem which uses the message server.
    This is usually because it cannot connect to the message server. Please check the dev_ms for any errors. if it is intermittent it is likely to be a network problem ( see note 500235 Network Diagnosis with NIPING.
    Check following SApnotes :
    #n21559: Examination of SAPGUI problems  could be useful.
    Please also check the note 882741 for the more info about this problem.

  • Logon Load Balancing

    Hello,
    I have installed PI 7.1 on Oracle with an additional application server instance (DI).
    In Central Instance I have created two logon groups and in my services file i have added "sapms<SID>    3640/tcp and  sapms<SID>   3642/tcp" of the following Directory "C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc". Now I am able to see the created groups in my Logon Pad. i have added CI as PIP1 and DI as PIP2 in my logon pad and can login to the respective server.
    Could you please guide if this is sufficient for load balancing.
    I have another situation:  Using the logon pad, i will try to login into the Dialog Instance (PIP2). If PIP2 is down, will it direct me to login into Central instance(PIP1)? If not, how to achieve this.
    Thanks,
    Subbu

    Hello Mark,
    Why did you use a different system number for the second application server?
    My CI number is 40 and my dialog instance number is 42..do i need to change anything whih i have placed in Services file.
    Mark, i have stopped the DI and i tried logging into the logon group for DI but it has not directed me to login into CI but inturn has thrown me an error that DI is down.
    Please suggest me to achieve the above condition.
    Thanks,

  • Logon load quality error

    Dears,
    I checked one error in RZ20 in logon load quality option.
    LogonLoadQuality               [ 1 Alert ], 6  < 50   current value below threshold value
    Then i check in SMLG that one of my instance is having very less load quality than other.
    Instance        St  Resp.time(ms) Thrshd User Thrshd Sample   Quality Dialog steps
    msldbci_PRD_00               343          27         13:15:36   13            107
    MSLAPP_PRD_01                143          31         13:18:37  296            202
    One is 13 and other 296.
    Please suggest how can i balance this ratio.
    Deepak

    Please suggest how can i balance this ratio.
    You can't, Quality is calculated by an algorithm that takes in count lots of different factors to produce a quality value... The value of quality basically will tell SMLG where to allocate the next user that try to login. (instance with the lower value on quality).
    Hope that helps

  • Load Balancing Error

    Scenario breakdown :
    I have two app servers on hand version 6 (App1) and (App2) and a singular web server - IWS 4.1(Web1).
    Solution thus far :
    I have chosen to use App2 as the Sync Primary and App1 as the Backup. Created a new cluster "mohrelxcluster" in kregedit and created two entries at location Clusters\mohrelxcluster\SyncServers to include both servers at port 10818(kxs). I have futher setup round robin polling under CCS0\LoadDb. I set the following values under CCS0\LoadDb\ServerWeights:
    - ipaddressApp1:10818=50
    - ipaddressApp2:10818=50
    Finally, created the needed entry under CCS0\ClusterName:
    -mohrelxcluster=0
    Upon doing so, I started both servers according to order of precedence App2 first then App1.
    Log Findings :
    As anticipated, according to the kxs log files on both machines shows the broadcasting and processing of information between Sync Primary and Backup. (indicated by the sending to and receiving from <ipaddressinhex:10818>).
    In the iasdsync log file on App2(Sync Primary) - App2 has be recognized as Primary and App1 as backup.
    Problem :
    Upon starting up the ksvradmin interface, the following error is trigged : An error occured while reading in load balancing values server app1. Upon clicking on app1's icon and clicking on the cluster tab, the "mohrelxcluster" cannot be seen.
    Many thanks for reviewing. Here's hoping some one can help
    Regards
    Sathya

    HI
    Are you sharing single LDAP for these two application servers. If not, you have to create those cluster entries in two regitries (Kregedit). (both syncserver entries and clustername=0 entries)
    If you are sharing single LDAP, the entries under SyncServers can be created once but you need to create ,
    <clustername>=0 entry under CCSO\ClusterName in two registries.
    Hope this helps.

    Error Message - %PIX|ASA-3-713128: Connection attempt to VCPIP redirected to VCA peer IP_address via load balancing
    Explanation - This message appears when a connection attempt has been made to the VCPIP and has been redirected to a less loaded peer using load balancing.
    Recommended Action - None required.
    Error Message - %PIX|ASA-3-713902 descriptive_event_string
    Explanation - This system log message could have several possible text strings describing an error. This may be the result of a configuration error either on the headend or remote access client.
    Recommended Action - It might be necessary to troubleshoot the configuration to determine the cause of the error. Check the ISAKMP and crypto map configuration on both peers.

  • Logon load balancing issue

    Hello Experts,
    We are having an issue with our load balancing.
    We have 4 app servers ,2 for batch and 2 for dialog.
    Dialog are used by SICF service for user to login. But the load is goign to the batch servers as well.Batch servers are running with different logon group and dialog( sicf) with another logon group.
    The load is distributed by Webdispatcher to these servers.
    Can you please provide some hint whe the load is going to another servers which are not meant to handle dialog requests.
    Regards
    Ajay Sandal

    Hi Ajay,
    I suspect your dialog request would be distributing from web-dispatcher.
    Web-dispatcher just performs its own function, it would not see if you have configured two as a dialog server and two for batch jobs.
    In case WD sees available diag WPs, on any of these servers, it will distribute the request to available ones.
    If you want to check the same, then deactivate batch job servers from WD.
    For batch job load balancing, I would suggest you to use logon group for batch jobs.
    To do the same call transaction SM61 -> Job-servergruppen -> create a logon group and assign batch servers.
    In turn to distribute batch jobs, you would need to configure batch servers (created in SM61) while scheduling batch job.
    Let me know if this helps, or your observation so that we could provide some more input on this issue.
    Cheers !!!

  • DirectAccess Load Balancing Error

    Hi 
    Just seeing if anyone has come across the following error when trying to enable Network Load Balancing in DA 2012.
    Error is The length of the prefix used to assign IPv6 addresses to DirectAccess clients connecting over IP-HTTPS should be 59 bits.
    Any help would be good
    Thanks

    Hi,
    By default, DirectAccess accept a /64 prefix for the IP-HTTPS range on a single server.
    This is the IPv6 range for your clients.
    When moving to NLB, you must use a /59 range because each DirectAccess server in the Cluster will receive a /64 range based on the range you defined in the console.
    Let's say you implement a 2001::1000:/59, server1 will use 2001::1000:/64 for the clients, server2 will use 2001::1001:/64, etc...

  • Sun appserver 8 load balancer error

    Hi everybody. I'm having some trouble using the load balancer plugin for apache 2 over a linux box. I've followed the install guide, compiled apache2 using the libraries, and everything looks ok, but when starting apache2 with the load balancing module enabled, I get the following error:

    My server is linux RHEL 3, apache version is 2.0.59.
    Please any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

    You might have simply forgotten to create and/or copy loadbalancer.xml into your apache_webserver_instance/conf/ directory.
    You can try to recreate it using 'asadmin create-http-lb-config' command, see:
