Many CIF queues in READY status

Hello Experts,
We have currently 30,000 CIF queues in our production system in READY status and those are stuck since long.I tried program RSQOWKEX to process queues.Its working for one queue at a time but not many at one shot if i give CIF*.
Please please suggest.

Nisha,
I will assume you are talking about outbound queues. Sounds like the schedular.is not running, or else you may have a communication or resource problem.
If your queue(s) are unregistered, you can register them using SMQS. Look for a missing destination, or a destination with a 'U' (unregistered) in the first column. Also, it can't hurt to 'Activate'. Don't be alarmed if in a few moments the status reverts to 'inactive', this just means that the scheduler is temporarily idle, and has decided that it has nothing to do. More info at
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_scm70/helpdata/EN/4c/cf5c3c3b067331e10000000a114084/frameset.htm
You can mass process 'Ready' queues in APO using /SAPAPO/CQ. Deselect 'only blocked' select Expand Node, enter all the possible source/destination systems, execute. In the resulting list, look for anything other than the green check, double click. The list of 'ready' queues will appear on the right. Select all, hit the activate Icon (matchstick). Wait. 30K queues may take a day, depending on the content.

Queues in READY status for no apparent reason

Dear All,
This question has been posted many times but never saw a conclusive answer on this forum.
To repeat, I see queues being built in READY status in APO inbound for no apparent reason.
All settings of scheduler being fine (SMQS - Type R), there are large number of queues awaiting to be manually unlocked from READY status and they get cleared on unlock. There are no waiting queues but still entries in say an update of a stock queue are like 70+. I am able to clear them manually but that would be stupidity when I am talking of 30K queues build up thus.
Its not that not a single queue is moving. Some are getting processed (RUNNING) on their own but thats at snails speed as compared to the queues in READY.
I have scheduled the report /SAPAPO/RCIFRESTART that seems to have scheuled something in the background but I cant trace that job.
Please help.
Regards,
Loknath

Loknath,
If you have 'many' queues 'RUNNING' for a long period of time, LUWs that are inline behind them will eventually stop trying. You can restart these queues with the /SAPAPO/RCIFRESTART program mentioned above.
There are lots of ways to tune queues to meet business requirements. Speak to your local CIF expert.
Some people use a job to run /SAPAPO/RCIFRESTART on a regular schedule. I have seen a system where this job is scheduled to run hourly.
30K queues is not really reasonable. If you always have this backlog, then there is a performance issue that needs to be addressed (SCM is not able to process the data as fast as ECC is sending). If this is a startup, then you just have to be patient. Initial loads can sometimes take days to fully clear all queues, especially if the SCM is sized a bit on the small side. Continue restarting until you have cleared all queues, then see if they begin to build again.

Messages stuck in Inbound Queue with Ready Status

Hi All,
The messages in the Inbound queue are getting stuck in Ready status.
I have to manually Unlock each queue to start the processing.
After some time again all the message queue are back to the Ready State.
Please help me on this issue.

Outbound queues are in ready status

Hi,
In our system outbound queue are getting stuck in READY status. They are not getting executed automtically from READY status we have to manually exceute them in SMQ2.
How i can clear the queue which are in READY status.
Thanks & Regards,
Koushal Solanki

Hi,
Please check if there is any standard background job available to schedule it to run for every 5 or 10 minutes so that it will check the queues with Ready status and then execute them automatically. Also, check the reasons why jobs are coming to Ready status.

CIF Queue gettign stuck in 'ready' state

Hi,
I am facing a problem in using CIF functionality while transferrting Master data and transaction data from R/3 to APO.
I have selected inbound queue processing for APO system and have also registered the queue in APO.
But when I actually CIF any data, it gets stuck in the outbound queue of the R/3 system in 'Ready' state.
Then I always need to manually activate the queue in SMQ1 to transfer the data to APO.
The same thing happens during online transfer of transaction data.
I want the data to be transferred automatically rather tahn activating the CIF queue each time.
Please help.
Thanks,
Ameet

Hi Ameet
Please following setting.
1. User setting
-R/3 T-CD CFC2 (For debuf Area, please check whether your user has "R" or not)
-APO T-CD /SAPAPO/C4 (For debug, please check whether your user has "R : debug on" or not)
2. Queue scheduler setting in both system
Inbound scheduler
T-CD SMQR please make sure whether you have inbound scheduler setting.
If there is not, you can create it by hitting Registration button.
"Registration" => Queue Name CF*, and lest of it can be leave as default.
Outbound scheduler
T-CD SMQS
Please make sure you have entry to your SCM system.
Type should be "R". If it is not R, outbound scheduler is not activated.
So please select entry and and hit registration button again. Then type will change
to "R".
I hope this help your problem.

Issue - CIF queue for activation of IM requiring manual activation.

Hi,
For inbound setting, the CIF queue for activation of IM is getting stuck with ready status. Consequently the background job getting failed with time limit exceed status.
The same queue when activated manually, gets cleared. Thus requirng manual intevetion.
Please suggest solution to get rid of this manual intervention.
Thanks and regards,
Sushant

Hi Sushant,
If you use inbound queues check QIN scheduler on SCM side - transaction SMQR.
From help:
Call transaction SMQR and choose Registration.
Enter the queue name CF* and make the required settings.
EXEMODE: Execution mode (D - Dialog work process; B - Batch work process)
MAXTIME: Maximum runtime that the QIN scheduler uses for activating a destination;
default value: 60 seconds
USERDEST: RFC destination with LOGON data. Specification of a logical destination
with its own language on the local
system. This means that the burden of integration can be distributed to a server group.
NRETRY: Number of repetitions for failed calls, default value: 30
RDELAY: Wait time between individual calls, default value: 300

Job to process messages in Ready Status in SMQ2 ECC

Hello friends,
I am sending out messages from SAP ECC to PI using proxy . The messages are getting stuck in SMQ2 in READY status. I have to each time manually go and activate the queue to send the message out of SAP ECC.
Is there any job to process them automatically that needs to be set up in SAP ECC ?
Thank you,
Teresa

Hi,
Investigate why messages were strucked in Queues, there could be some reason, i suggest you too deregister and register queues once again.
if possible assign sepprate queue for proxy interface.

CIF QUEUE in R3

Hi,
For the CIF Queues in R3, i could see the errors in SMQ1 and SMQ2 ..how do we find the cause of the error,
Pls answer,
Regards,
Dhanush

Hi,
Many a times, you see the reason in the error itself.
For example., you may see the error "Integration model not active for material XXX in Plant YYYY".
For finding the root cause , you will have to study the related processes in detail( how the process is performed in SAP ECC or APO).
From experience, the majoirty cause of the errors could be attirbuted to 1. Master Data Errors, 2. job / process failures 3. Bugs
Please refer to OSS note 563806 ( FAQ: APO CIF) , which is gives a very good insight in CIF issues, best practices etc.

Queues in READY State

Dear Friends,
This is regarding the queues in DOE being in READY state for a long time.
When we trigger delta download, we see some queues in READY state for a long time ( > 2 minutes ).
Example :
DOEBWA_00G_007_0_13FL.
We have executed the transaction sdoe_activate_q in the middleware for all the queue name ( sdoe* , mmw* , et al).
Are we missing something?
Thanks in Advance.
Suresh BJ

I don't know about this report, but the place to check for your problem is the transaction SMQR.
1. If the queues are clearing up after some time, then its not a problem of registration. So you should see your corresponding queue patterns 'R'egistered here.
2. Look at the 'Scheduler Status'. Is it 'Waiting'? If yes, then it means your scheduler (the guy who distributes queue entries to dialog work processes for processing) is waiting for a work process to get free. => Then the problem is with having too few dialog work processes.
Cheers

Export message in READY status before oaiimport

Hi all,
We do not use migrate for production environment but OAIIMPORT as :
- oaiimport is more reliable
- we don't want to let production people doing those manipulations with ISTUDIO
But we have a problem as we begin to have a lot of flows on production (and around 10 running adapters ) :
IF a message stay in the ready status in the OAI_HUB_QUEUE we do not want to loose this message (The oaiimport drop the whole queue)
Question : is it possible to do a normal export of the oai_hub_queue before the oaiimport so as import this queue after the oaiimport ?
Does someone as the same issue ?
regards

Hello,
The problem was i think that we used these parameters (for DB adapters) :
agent_pipeline_from_hub=false
agent_pipeline_to_hub=false
The effect of these parameters is to suppress file persistence which is "more secure" as database persistence is more reliable (cluster node)
But the main drawback is that the oaiexport/oaiimport method for upgrading production repository is no more safely usable as explained in the first message.
We will desactivate these parameters.
Thank you,
Olivier

Stop CIF queues always during online Backup on SCM system

Hello,
On Upgrade Guide "SAP SCM 5.1 ABAP UNIX Oracle Version 1.00" under
chapter 3.4 --> Backup before prepare JAVA we found this :
"Before performing a database backup, you have to stop the CIF queues in your
SAP SCM system in order to ensure a consistent recovery state."
Is this relevant for every online backups (also outside from Upgrading)?
Should we stop the CIF queues on daily online backups too? Or is this a special-feature during Upgrade?
BR
Ray Purucker

Hello,
Do you have above said log file available ?
Instead of the option 'Overflow log path', did you try rollforward with the option of timestamp (point in time) (till the time you have the log files) Or with the option overflow log path but with 'NORETRIEVE' as well ?
For the query status command, Last committed transaction time stamp is not what you thought.
Please revise the command options,
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/db2luw/v8/index.jsp?topic=/com.ibm.db2.udb.doc/core/r0001978.htm
'It is looking for log file S0000XXX.LOG whose time stamp is older than the time stamp of online backup.'
If you want to restore only until the online backup, then use the option End of Backup and stop - to rollforward until the last log when backup was in progress
Thanks

Query on CIF Queues

Hi Apo Experts,
I am having some queries on CIF queues...
> I am getting below SYSFAIL error in outbound queues at APO Side.
I can see that error text as " Material status does not allow a planned independent " . But there is no material number in the error text. So i double clikced the queue again. then i get the below screen which gives information about LUW , whichj is very very long ....
Q1. How to know the material number in this particular queue ? I have posted the same question in previous post and i got reply that u need to keep clicking the queue until u find material number. I have done the same , but i didnt find any material number. I was getting this LUW Information , which is very long and it is in digital coding .
(""" I have checked these queues in SCM Queue Manager also, and i was unable to find the material numner )
Q2. How to process this Queue again ? Can i maintain the Material Status in ECC Side and process this queue again ?
Q3. One question on LUW. Does all the material numbers which are assigned in one Particular Integration model form a single LUW ??
Suppose i have given 10 materials in a integration model X and another 5 materials in another integration model Y , Then there will be two LUW's .. is it right ??
Q4. ( this may question may sound stupid but still.... ) .. Outbound queue in APO gets created when we are transferring something from APO to R/3 , and system was unable to process. So due to the error, an Outbound Queue gets created . My question is , If suppose there is a porblem in R/3 side, then whether an Inbound queue gets created at R/3 side ?? Or only Outbound Queue in APO gets created ?? or both gets created ??
I am having above serious doubts and working on the same. Request to kindly provide your inputs .Thanks to all for your time and support. Good Day !!
Regards,
Raghavendra

Hi Emani,
Below information is based on best of my knowledge and experience, please try and let me know i this helps.
Q1. How to know the material number in this particular queue ? I have posted the same question in previous post and i got reply that u need to keep clicking the queue until u find material number. I have done the same , but i didnt find any material number. I was getting this LUW Information , which is very long and it is in digital coding .
(""" I have checked these queues in SCM Queue Manager also, and i was unable to find the material numner )
Ans: Please follow below steps
SMQ1/SMQ2 --> double click on queue name ---> again double click on queue name ---> again double click on queue name.
You will reach on a screen with heading , here you will be able to see material name and other information;
Q2. How to process this Queue again ? Can i maintain the Material Status in ECC Side and process this queue again ?
ANS: This will depend on the error message you are getting under status column, if this is due to some temporary reasons, then you can try executing by pressing execute button , or you might need to delete the queue ---> remove reason of sysfail ---> regenerate the queue.
Q3. One question on LUW. Does all the material numbers which are assigned in one Particular Integration model form a single LUW ??
Suppose i have given 10 materials in a integration model X and another 5 materials in another integration model Y , Then there will be two LUW's .. is it right ??
ANS: Please check below link for more details on qRFC administration
qRFC Administration - Connectivity - SAP Library
Further for different objects different LUWs got formed i.e. Sales Orders, Purchase Orders, Stock etc., you can find more information on qRFC communication model in below link.
http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_06/helpdata/en/48/9be66e1f84062ee10000000a42189d/content.htm?frameset=/en/48/9c44f92ab0062fe10000000a42189d/frameset.htm
Q4. ( this may question may sound stupid but still.... ) .. Outbound queue in APO gets created when we are transferring something from APO to R/3 , and system was unable to process. So due to the error, an Outbound Queue gets created . My question is , If suppose there is a porblem in R/3 side, then whether an Inbound queue gets created at R/3 side ?? Or only Outbound Queue in APO gets created ?? or both gets created ??
ANS: Queues are getting created whenever you transfer some data from one system to another, if there is some issue then the queue doesn't get cleared, it gets stuck.
If you are sending data from ECC to APO then it creates outbound queue in ECC and if it gets cleared then an Inbound queue in APO.
Hope this answers your query.

How to Debugg CIF queue

Hi All,
When we transfer material master data from R/3 to APO then data is not updating in APO system.Could you please let me know the steps to debug CIF queue while transferring data from R/3 to APO.
Thanks
Mohit khandelwal

Hi Mohit,
On a functional perspective, if you need to debut the queue, goto
smq1 and smq2 transactions (in APO or in R/3 based on where the
error lies) and execute it, you will get the list of queues under error.
If there are sysfails, double click on it by keeping the cursor on the
queue name and keep clicking it so that the entire LUW will gets
opened and you can see the error information.
For viewing the detailed log of the error, use transactions
slg1, cfg1.
