Process chain failure due to weekly maintanence

Hi experts,
we have BI sytem shutdown every week ok sundays due weekly system maintanence.In that process we have few process chain failure as well as batch job failures and each time we have to fix it by manual loading of data.
Any one help me fixing it once for ever.
Thanks for your help.
Thanks
Smitha.

Hi,
Is ur PC running when the system is shut down?? if yes then u have to fix manually...The best practice is to finish off the loads before the system is shut down. Make sure that all the deltas are pulled before the system is down..
try this for restarting PC

after cleaning up all the datatargets u can restart it as mentioned in the above link...

Infopackage in process chain failing due to short dump on regular basis.

HI Experts,
There is a daily process chain in which one of the element (infopackage) fails due to short dump on regular basis (At least twice in a week) please find the message below
Runtime Errors         DBIF_RSQL_SQL_ERROR
Exception              CX_SY_OPEN_SQL_DB
Short text
SQL error in the database when accessing a table.
And in job log it is showing ARFCSTATE = SYSFAIL
We are able to resolve it just manual update and the process goes fine no issues but my question here is what is the exact reason for this and how to resolve it permanently or decrease the frequency of the error.
Please if any one can tell the root cause and the solution to avoid the issue in future on regular basis.
and also can any one elaborate what is ARFCSTATE = SYSFAIL,for trfc check we don't have access to SM58 in ECC side
and trfc is fine in bw side
Appreciate for not giving the general solutions like repeated solutions already posted in SDN
with regards,
musai

You can contact your BASIS person he can help you reg table space issue. it says used space is 98% and free space is 1.03%.
ask your basis to set a threshold to check the space and send a mail notification to all daily regarding the space allocation and utilization.
ARFCSTATE = SYSFAIL means the TRFC did not processed properly to the BW system from source.
Monitoring object with information about tRFC and qRFC calls that are waiting to be executed in this system; after they have been executed, they are deleted from table ARFCRSTATE.
Are there any hung TRFCs which are not processed to BW side. have you checked it
first check
load monitor -- menu -- environment -- job overview -- status of job(is it finsihed or not?) - check the job log -- ther try to find out the hung TRFc
press find --tyep "sysfail" ok -- it will display all the hung or fialed TRFCs which are not processed to BW system.
if you find the hung TID with respect to your load.. next goto SM58 trasaction to process the trfcs manually or use the load monitor menu -- environment -- transaction RFC -- source sys -- it will take you to same SM58 screen -- click F8 it will display the hung TRFc in that duration.
select the TRFc and click on F6 to process them manually.
also check the loackwaits anddead locks in ST04/DB6COCKPIT.( ask basis to check) if any dead locks are there they will take care of it.
check for short dumps in st22 if any and try to analyse.
Check the SM21 system logs.

Master Data Process chains failing due to special charecters?

hi experts,
we have done all the master data(FI,SD,LO,QM,PM,MM,PP,PS) and created process chains and transported into production system.
when we run the process chains we are facing lot of issues regarding special charecters.
for example. 0MAT_VEND_ATTR Data source.
MATERIAL VENDOR (field - IDNLF).
'UDGÅET
&''UDGÅR
&''UDGÅET
&''36/5599/LED./FÆLLES
&''SØTRANSPORT &
those are the special charecters are coming when i try to execute through RSKC the above Material Vendors, its giving different special chars for different MATERIAL VENDORS like below.
FÆLLESSØTRANSPORT
04/5160/FORSØGSAFD.
(5150)FORSØGSAFD.
like that there are about 15 master data chains are failing.
due to that reason the below transcation chars are not executing.
please suggest me is there any routine or is there any procedure to take care of unpredicted special charecters loading successfully into BW.
regards
venuscm

I don't think its a global setting problem.
Permit the char in RSKC...
Check with the functional team why they are getting Special char values in the loads. ask them to rectify the special char so that you can extract the same to BW side.
go through the blog links provided earlier in my post...
Check the below link which might be of some use to you,..

Process chain failed due to activation of a DSO

Hi friends,
Three four days back the process chain has been failed due to the activation error.The issue was with data and i have deleted the request in manage screen and reloaded again as repeat of delta with corrections in PSA. Which is afterwards activation is successful. Now process chain is getting failed daily saying that request is not present in the DSO( Request is no longer exists in the DSO ). But manual activation of DSO is successful.
Please help me in this reagrd.
Regards,
anil
PS: I tried by removing process chain from scheduling and rescheduling back.

Hi........
Deleting request from the PSA will not help............what is the update mode of ur ODS..........if it is overwritten............then no probs...load the request again in the target...........if not..........then do one thing...........push the request again in the target.........then...........make the QM status red................then delete the request again............just check whether u face the same issue again or not...........
Generally we face this issue............suppose we load a delta request successfully in the target.........then we delete the request without making the QM status red............and after that next delta also loaded............then while activation...............it will ask for the deleted request...........I think there is some confusion...........and u can try the trick..............it may work............

Debjani........

'AND' process in a process chain failure - need help

For the first time and out of no where, two separate 'AND' processes in two separate process chains failed on two separate days. It displayed error the same messages in both isntances as below. It seems that when the first load completed and the second was still in progress, this 'AND' attempted excecute and failed.
I had to manually resume the chain by setting the 'AND' status'to 'G' in RSPCPROCESSLOG table. I also plan to recreate those 'AND'.
But did anyone here experience this problem and know the root cause?
Thanks for any assistance!
Julian
This AND process is not waiting for event RSPROCESS, parameter
Job cancelled after system exception ERROR_MESSAGE

Thanks, Shambhu!
I am planning to create new ones. But my problem is that I hate to recreate all 'AND's I have in all our chains. There are a lot of them. But if I don't, I have no idea which is the next victim ...

Process chain hangs due to locks in SM12

We are currently experiencing issues when executing the process chains. The process chain hangs at one or more DTP loads without executing the following step even though the DTP load is successfully complete (Green). Upon research found that the system locks in SM12 are not released for these DTP loads which is causing the process chain to hang.
Once I delete the lock manually, the process chain continues with the subsequent steps. This is painful during night time loads and hence am wondering if you guyz are aware of a fix for this problem.
FYI, we our system is BI 7.0 and SP 13. Any leads towards the solution are highly appreciated. Thanks!

hi Chetan,
Please enlight me, with your suggestion here you are asking to increase the BGD processes for that particular process chain or for system (SID) as whole?
Please help to understand better.
Thanks in advance

Process chain failing (due to back ground jobs)

Dear Friends
Did anybody help me in this topic.
The DTP's of the particular process chain is failing frequently.
The reason is background jobs causing error
why this happens every time?
Did parallel data loading in the DTP may cause any backgound error?
Is it possible for only one update to the DTP at a time?
Thanks in advance for your replies
With Regards
Riyad

Dear,
Check may be helpful and search SDN you will find many related posts.

"Syntax error in the MDX statement " in Process chain failure??Urgent pls

Hi Experts,
could any one suggest me the procedure to rectify the below problems in process chain?
1."Syntax error in the MDX statement "
2."Error when getting data (Error when getting data (AXI))"

In which case it'll be that Access has a different date format to MySQL, and you're trying to push the string "'25-Apr-12 10:55 PM" into Access, which it's not understanding. To get around this, you need to treat your variable as a true date/time object, rather than a formatted string.
CFQueryParams should be used on absolutely every database platform, they'll stop your website being vulnerable to SQL Injection attacks for one, which at the moment you're wide open to. Replace your query with something like this:
<cfquery name="input_comments" datasource="#DSN#" username="#DSNUSER#" password="#DSNPASS#">
      INSERT INTO comments(
                         commenter,
                         comment,
                         datetime,
                         post_id
               VALUES(
                         <cfqueryparam cfsqltype="cf_sql_varchar" value="#form.commenter#" />,
                         <cfqueryparam cfsqltype="cf_sql_varchar" value="#form.comment#" />,
                         now(),
                         <cfqueryparam cfsqltype="cf_sql_numeric" value="#form.post_id#" /> )
</cfquery>
The QueryParams will handle the data types for you, and should pass values around more safely and with fewer issues. Assuming you just want to store the current date and time you don't even need to get ColdFusion involved, as databases have their own functions for this. I believe Access' version is simply NOW(), so I've put that in your query.
Give the above a go.

Process chain failure

Hi Guys,
We have process chain defined for sales order history upload from BW to APO planning area. Its failed with logs :
1- DataSource 8PBSD_C01 has to be replicated (time stamp, see long text).
DataSource 8PBSD_C01 does not have the same status as the source system in the Business Information Warehouse.
The time stamp in the source system is 19.12.2008 23:55:19.
The time stamp in the BW system is 30.07.2008 16:36:49.
2- Errors in source system.
Message no. RSM340
The process chain failed at very first step. please help to resolve it.
Quick question:
1. how to see the planning area wether it's on full load or delta load?
2. how to compare the planning area data and infocube data so that i can see data difference?
Cheers
PK

Thanks a lot Venkat. Here is process steps which i am going to follow.Since, i am doing it very first time ,please let me know if any step is missing/doing anything wrong.
Steps to solve this problem
Replicate data source
Step 1 u2013 Replicate source system. In RSA1 go to BW data source data mart -BW info cube (8PBSD_C01). Right click on info cube and click on REPLICATE META DATA.
STEP 2- Activate Transformation rule for APO info cube 8PBSCM_C04 and save in transport request.
STEP 2.1- Activate Data Transfer Process and save in same transport number.
STEP 3- Delete initializations in info package.
STEP 4 u2013 Select Delta initialization with data transfer.
STEP 5 u2013 Execute info package.
Prerequisites
STEP 1- Delete APO info cube 8PBSCM_C04 data.(how to do it?)
STEP 2- Delete PSA data.(how to do it?)
STEP 3- Delete Index in APO info cube 8PBSCM_C04. (Manage  performance delete index).(how to do it?)
STEP 4- Check planning area data in Live Cache. Delete and regenerate Live Cache.(how to do it?)

Hi,
I scheduled a process chain to run once every hour and sometimes it fails for knowing problem.
I would like to get an email every time it fails.
Could someone guide me how to get a document which gives the steps to follow or provide me a step by step for this.
Thanks,

Hi Mohamed,
You can create messages for a process that are trigerred either when the process failes, or succeeds, by right clicking on a process and choosing Create Message.
