Problem in Transaction Usage report in Virsa toolbox in virsa FF

We have recently installed virsa firefighter.
When we run Transaction Usage report in Virsa toolbox,selection by " Transaction",it gives all the transaction run in the particular client till date and not just the tcode for which we want the report.
For can be the reason for such a result?

Hi,
This may be possible if the trace is activated in the TA ST01. But it is not advisable to keep this trace for a prolonged period as it has an adverse effect in the system performance.
For a smaller user base, u can enable the security log in TA SM19, The report can be pulled from TA SM20.
Hope this helps.

Transaction usage report in 4.6B

Hi,
I'm trying to get a transaction usage report of the last 3 months out of 4.6B.
Can someone point me in the right direction?
This information is easier to get to in 4.7, but I can't find it in 4.6B.
Please help.
Thanks

Thank you Ashley!
What you have done in your systems in very admirable - although I know some folks who claim that if you lock down people's access to such an extent that they become inflexible (e.g. cannot start arbitrary reports of their choice)... then it motivates them more to find those loop-holes you refer to which appear from time to time, instead of keeping them blissfully ignorant. I am not one of those folks though, and don't believe in "security in obscurity" because I am sure that someone who enters the system with malice or fraudulent intentions will not care about it either...
2 "gotchas" with reports are those intended only for background jobs and therefore don't have a transaction code to start them, necessarily. I guess it is not that difficult to create one, and there is also the possibility to debug programs scheduled in SM37 using the job-debugger (JDBG).
The other is that some standard reports are delivered without a transaction code to start them, or at least none which is obvious. Again, I guess one could easily create a transaction to start the report if there is intention to use it periodically.
I think much of this new awareness (and legal requirements) came long after the ABAP reporting itself was invented, and this causes some teething problems and a transition phase in the SAP world.
In very early days, there was nothing to stop a user from running a report... (except the checks in the report itself). Those were "the good old days"...
Then came SA38 for ABAP reporting purposes and ABAP itself (as it's German acronym hints at) was for customers to create additional reporting outputs... (ha ha ha :-).
The best (and most consistent) security is still that each program (including function modules, particularly if they are remote enabled and methods) perform the the correct authority-checks which are niether too weak nor too strict, because this mitigates many of the risks when answering the "what if the user can break out of the tcode?" question. This is one of the reasons why I am a big BAPI fan (see transaction BAPI).
To me it seems that the greater the risk of starting reports is percieved to be, the less confidence in the quality of the programming is hiding behind it. This is true of programs from all name ranges.
My 2 cents,
Julius

RE:Transaction usage report not updating.

Hi All,
I am on 5.2 SP9 and I am facing an issue wherein the transaction usage report is not getting updated by the lateast report. To illustrate, I created a role with transaction PFCG and assigned it to a user. Now, when the user executes the PFCG, the report should be updated and it should show that this user also executed PFCG today, which isn't the case.
Would like to know if anyone has a clue how to resolve the same. As in, did i miss out on anything which needs to configured/done before running this report.
Thanks a tonne in advance.

Hersh.

Hello Joy,
Thanks for your reply but the transaction usage reports I am mentioning here are actuallyu the transaction usage reports for "Role Expert" not for "FireFighter".

Linked Server problem on Transaction Usage???

Hi,
I am using SQL Server 2008 R2 and we have a linked server connection to Oracle 11g. We have a table on Oracle thats why we need to do some CRUD operations on both servers. I got this error while trying to update/insert in both servers in a transaction as follows. How can I fix this???
Best Regards.
The operation could not be performed because OLE DB provider "OraOLEDB.Oracle" for linked server "***" was unable to begin a distributed transaction.
OLE DB provider "OraOLEDB.Oracle" for linked server "***" returned message "New transaction cannot enlist in the specified transaction coordinator. ".
Sample code:
conn.Open()
myTransaction = conn.BeginTransaction()
'This is ORACLE
Dim comm As New Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand("UPDATE [***]..[**].[***] SET ApprovedBy=@approvedBy,ApproveDate=@approvalDate,Approved=@approved, StatusId=@StatusId where RequestID=@requestID", conn)
'Add to Transaction
comm.Transaction = myTransaction
comm.Parameters.AddWithValue("@approvedBy", appBy)
comm.Parameters.AddWithValue("@approvalDate", appDate)
comm.Parameters.AddWithValue("@approved", app)
comm.Parameters.AddWithValue("@StatusId", status)
comm.Parameters.AddWithValue("@requestID", reqId)
comm.ExecuteNonQuery()
'This is SQL Server
Dim comm1 As New Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand("INSERT INTO Table1 (DeliveryNo,VendorId) VALUES(@DeliveryNo,@VendorId)", conn)
'Add to Transaction
comm1.Transaction = myTransaction
comm1.Parameters.AddWithValue("@DeliveryNo", deliveryID)
comm1.Parameters.AddWithValue("@ID", ID)
comm1.ExecuteNonQuery()
'Commit Transactions & Close
myTransaction.Commit()
conn.Close()

Open the OUI, click the Installed products button.
You can also infer the info by checking to see if you have "OracleMTSRecoveryService" running in Services, and whether you have oramts.dll in your OH\BIN directory.

FF: Unable to view Reports in Virsa Toolbox.

HI All,
I am using FireFighter Version 5.2 SP5 Patch 1 and facing issues in the Firefighter Tool box. Also, I have VIRSANH add-on release 520_700 with Level 010 in the backend.
When i enter transaction "/n/virsa/vfat" and click on the Virsa Toolbox button, i am not able to see the standard reports on the screen. The tree structure shown just has the text - "Node text not found" displayed.
Would wish if any one could give a clue how to resolve the same.
Thanks and Regards,
Hersh.

Hi,
You have to activate the BC set /VIRSA/FFTAB_52 via transaction SCPR20.
This would have to be done in your dev client and then transported to the various clients in the landscape.
This is mentioned in the Fire Fighter 5.2 ABAP Component Installation documentation.

Virsa Toolbox - Reason/Activity & Log Report

Hello and Happy New Year!
I have been experiencing an issue where I am frequently kicked out of the SAP GUI when running some of the Virsa Tool Box -- Virsa Utilities and Reports --- Reason/Activity & Log Reports specifically. My SAP GUI is 710, Build 967944, Patch Level 7 and my FF/SPM is 5.2 SP12. This problem of getting kicked out started at or near the end of the year and continues today. There is really no rhyme or reason when or why it happens, but I want to see if anyone else experiences this same issue or if anyone knows of a work around/resolution?
Regards,
Greg

I have upgraded the 7.10 GUI to SP15 and the problem still exists. I had our Basis team take a look at the logs and it shows that my connection was terminated or that I lost connection. Also, as a side note, the problem is not server specific.
To provide a little more info, this problem occurs after I have ran the report and then save the file to my desktop as an .rtf. It is intermittent and could happen when I run either report and could occur 50% of the time. I still get the final report, but the GUI will disappear.

Error in starting transaction using report painter

Hi,
We have a problem when starting a z-transaction:
Transaction: START_REPORT
D_SREPOVARI-REPORTTYPE = RE
D_SREPOVARI-EXTDREPORT = FBR 01RFRRS02                       ZDE-PL01
The error message says there's a problem in the generated report GPCDBE7ZKBGDJXRP5IAE2BOUBDM
When I go to se38 and click on syntax chec, the result is this:
          IF RFRRS02-ERGSL EQ '88' "
          AND RFRRS02-GJAHR EQ VAR001 AND
           VAR001"
          AND RFRRS02-VERSN EQ 'EKDE'.
            CLEAR: Z. SP = C00001.
Looks to me like the " is not properly placed.
Maybe it should look like this:
          IF RFRRS02-ERGSL EQ '88'
"AND RFRRS02-GJAHR EQ VAR001 AND VAR001"
          AND RFRRS02-VERSN EQ 'EKDE'.
            CLEAR: Z. SP = C00001.
Then it would be okay.
Or something is missing here. Is there something wrong in the report painter report definition ?
Any hints ?
Thank you
Edited by: Joachim Nerreter on Feb 17, 2012 12:48 PM

You can get the details from SREPOVARI table.
Give report type as RE ( drilldown reporting ) and extended name as your fbr* and execute.
You can find the tree and based on tree the program.
You can find the report painter program from GRR3 transaction.

Usage Report Results Confusion

Hi Everyone,
Here is some background before I ask my question:
I set up a hierarchy and populated it VM entities no problem. I set up my own basic pricing model that was based on "Actual Usage" and had no base rates, no fixed costs, no other costs, and no rules associated with it. I ran a couple usage reports using this pricing model.
The first usage report I generated on my hierarchy was for the time frame 11/06/2012 to 11/06/2013 (1 year) and the report produced results which I looked okay. I only asked for it to show CPU, Memory, and Storage.
So I my second usage report on the same hierarchy and for this one the time frame was set for 05/06/2013 to 11/06/2013 (6 months) and the the results produced almost exactly DOUBLE the usage for EVERY resource.
I thought this was strange considering the time frames overlap and if anything the YEAR time span would have to have at least the same usage stats if not higher than the 6 month time span it includes.
So, my question is, did I mess up the pricing model or billing policy somewhere to have this happen? Or does the usage report generate on an average of some sort?
I just can't figure out how this is possible.
Thanks for any help in advance!
-Richie

Hi Richie,
Can you please attach the pdf reports for the same issue and tell about the problematic VMs. I will try to give you an explanation for the same.
Thanks,

Usage Report for SSM 7.0

Usage Report for SSM 7.0
We need to track the usage of SSM by our users and report the number of logins.
I believe there is a trace file that is produced somewhere in SSM.
Can anyone suggest the best method to produce a 'Usage Report' based on a trace file or something simliar?
Regards
David

Rohini,
The direct answer for this question is to look into some web analytic tools. Basically, you tag each page with hyperlink markup language that the web analytic tools tracks.
A typical web analytic tool can show you which pages were visited (and which weren't), who came in to look and how long they stayed - usually for tracking outside users you are just getting IP addresses, but with tracking internal folks you will be able to set it up to track them. Also they include things like typical user paths - where did they land and then where did they go.
This is something you would work with using the analytic tool you selected. Web analytics is a whole discipline onto itself and so you shouldn't have any problems finding consultants to set up whatever software you want to use. My experience, from long ago, was that these are tools have many out of the box features that make it easy to set up.
Most web analytic tools are set up for customers/consumers/visitors and used by marketing or web designers. When you look at employees as your customers/visitors, there isn't a whole lot of difference in setting up a tool to track that kind of usage.
As I said before, I don't have any recommendation to provide about which tool would exactly meet your need, many come with a variety of options, plans, and pricing.
Good luck,
Bob

Application Usage Report Blank - ARD 3.8

We are trying to run an Application Usage Report on one of our clients. We are using both 3.8 Admin and Client.
It will run the report but the output is simply blank.
Has anyone seen this before? Any advice. Tried it on several clients and same issue each time.

Hi all - I'm suffering from similar ARD/VNC/ScreenSharing problems, too - in this case however Yosemite to Yosemite!
Client computer:
     Laptop: MacBook Pro
     Yosemite 10.10.2
     ARD 3.8.3
Remote Computer:
     Desktop: MacMini
     Yosemite 10.10.3
     ARD 3.8.3
I cannot connect to my remote machine (to control or just view it), neither with ARD nor with VNC.
It does not work with Remote Management enabled nor Screen Sharing.
Attempting a connection reports - after a while - the error "Connection failed ... Please make sure that Screen Sharing ... is enabled" (but it is enabled!)
In the log on the client machine the following entry appears:
Screen Sharing: SSSessionView.m:1815:-[SSSessionView ssSession:connectDidFail:]: Communications error
In the log on the remote machine the following entry appears:
com.apple.xpc.launchd[1]: (com.apple.screensharing[692]) Endpoint has been activated through legacy launch(3) APIs. Please switch to XPC or bootstrap_check_in(): com.apple.screensharing.server
Note, however that other functions work:
- On my Laptop ARD reports that the remote computer is available and displays the user and the current application correctly
- A connection does seem to be established between the client and the remote machine, because I can send a "Message to the Administrator" from the remote machine back to the client machine, which is correctly displayed on the client machine.
Come on Apple - you seem to have forgotten your credo "It just works!"
I thought I would never say it, but thank god for TeamViewer!

ITunes U Usage Report Missing Data

Greetings All;
We just received our monthly iTunes Usage report and for the week of 7/24 and 7/31, the report shows "0" activity in all fields.
Anyone experiencing a similar issue? Any thoughts? Thanks!

Hello,
I have the same problem. The two reports (dz and the regular) show 0 of the two weeks 7/24 and 7/31. Also the data of the week of 2011-07-17 is incorrect (compared to the one sent a couple of weeks ago.)

SQL Server 2008 R2 Disk Usage report showing incorrect data file

When I go to ANY database (System, AdventureWorks*, user) in Managemant Studio, I right-click on the db, select Reports, select Standard Reports, and select Disk Usage. The disk usage report shows the correct db on top, but always only shows AdventureWorks_Data.mdf
when I expand Disk Space Used by Data Files section. This happens to any db I try. When I look at Database Properties/Files for that database, the logical and physical file names are correct.
Since the correct files appear in Database Properties/Files, I'm hoping it's just a bug in the report. Same thing happens if I run a Disk Usage by Table report for ANY database, The tables for AdventureWorks always only appear,
Thanks, Mike

Thanks Tibor!
I looked at the Properties for my login under Security/Logins and it shows my default db to be master. Not sure if this is correct, but it sounds plausible. I'll see if I can report the problem.
The only issue I can think of that was out of the ordinary for the install of 2008 R2 EE was this:
I originally installed 2005 DE, since it wouldn't expire. After the install of 2005 DE, I decided to uninstall it and install 2008 R2 EE. In between the installs of 2005 DE and 2008 R2 EE, I installed/uninstalled stupid stuff like 2008
Express, 2008 Express with Advanced Services (?), and 2008 EE. After each uninstall I also did a system restore to be safe.
Now each time I open Management Studio, i get a pop-up stating that there are SQL Server 2005 registered servers on my sytem and asks me if I want to add them into Management Studio. I always say no.
The AdventureWorks db is from 2005 and was installed automatically with 2005. I installed the 2005, 2008, and 2008 R2 AdventureWorks databases to my R2 for class. I'm not sure now if the Disk Usage report is showing me AdventureWorks_Data.mdf
because of my install into 2008 R2 EE or my previous install of 2005 DE.
Hope this kind of makes sense...
