Process Monito: Meaning of Status HOLD and Reasn PRIVATE

Hi all,
Sometimes our development systems tends to react extremely slowly.
If I can get the process overiew in SM50, I see that all Dialog processes are uses and we have a whole bunch of users with Status HOLD and Reasn PRIVATE - no DEBUG, no wait RFC, no DB access active.
Nobody can explain what that means and what the reason may be.
TNX for any hints.
Regards
Clemens

Yes, it is all in the help.
PRIV means that the user's memory limit has been exceeded for this work process and that the process will be locked until enough memory is available on the system.
Some companies just don't have the money to buy some memory - they prefer to pay consultants waiting time

ServiceDesk with status HOLD and SLA Calculation

Hello there experts,
I was trying to figure out a scenario with ServiceDesk and SLA... I got SLA working but thinking about the third parties that will be using the system we came up with the following Issue:
Imagine that you have a SLA enabled based on Priority then a new request of support came up... there´s a standard status called Proposed Solution... imagine that this is not the final status and its just a suggesting of solution then it must be tested by the "other side" of the support... so the SLA is counting and the bomb will blow up in the servicedesk hands but this is waiting a response from the "customer" or even a third party person that is not concerned about the SLA since its for the support and not for him.
I was thinking like: Why to control SLA if you cannot stop the clock for a "customer action"?
Some ideas came up my mind such put into the mentioned status some specific action but I dont have a clue if theres some CRM method that stops clock.
I saw some threads regarding the "Stop time" but none was conclusing... Am I thinking wrong with this "HOLD" status or u agree with me that this is a big lack of functionallity from SAP?
Thanks in advance for any idea/response/solution you may post here.

As usual a very good answer from you Pascal and I think it´s really something that lacks in Solution manager....
The "hold" status is something basic at any helpdesk functionallity who uses SLA to control the time.
I was just wondering that it could be a best practice to have a continuous clock ticking even in the situation of "Customer Action"... the SAP uses this status and I wonder if they track time and how they do that...
Anyway I am thinking to go for development but I am just leveraging some points.... following your instructions Pascal, I really have at the cockpit the option to go for Menu ->System->Changes Document to find the info about when the status was changed... Is there any other place I can check that?
Points awarded for your answer

How do I process messages with status = "Holding"

Hi,
How do I process messages with status = "Holding" from the RWB-Message Monitoring - Adapter Engine?
I did a quick scan for records with errors in the same queue (ConversationID), but could not find any.
I tried to cancel the one with the smallest sequential number, but I got the error - "Unable to cancel 1 of 1 messages; update the status"
Please help.
Thanks
Sudheer

Hi,
"Holding comes into play when ur scenario is having multiple inbound interfaces and you checked "Maintained order at runtime"in interface determination in ID. Suppose message will hit first inbound interface once it is successful then it will hit second inbound interface. If first inbound interface fails then most of the message will be in "Holding" status depends upon XI AF queues ID.
I did a quick scan for records with errors in the same queue (ConversationID), but could not find any.
You will not find bcoz of AE archiving settings.
Try to check the with business guys, whether they need the order of processing. If not the case try to Uncheck the box "Maintain Order at runtime".

OWB 10gR2 map returning status = Complete and Result = Null in Process Flow

Hi,
I have an OWB process flow which invokes an OWB map. There are 2 outgoing transitions attached to the OWB map. 1st transition is a conditinal one (on SUCCESS) and the 2nd one is unconditional transition.
I am monitoring the status of process flow execution in Oracle Workflow monitor. After the process flow is initiated, sometimes the OWB map within shows status = complete and result = OK in workflow monitor (in tab - status). But sometimes it shows status = Complete and Result = Null. In this situation the execution is following the unconditional transition path.
Can anyone tell me what causes the OWB map to return a Result = NULL? Also sometimes I am getting the map returning a Result = Force (with the same status = Complete).
The configuration that I am working with is as below ---
OWB client version : 10.2.0.1.31
OWB repository version : 10.2.0.1.0
Oracle Workflow Version : 2.6.4.0.0
Database version : 10g Enterprise edition release 10.2.0.1.0

Hi Manohar,
1. You need to install Oracle HTTP server in a separate Oracle home.
2.Look for the dads.conf file in the installation. Edit the file, copy the sample code and paste it below and edit the pasted part as under ----
<Location /pls/<SID>>
SetHandler pls_handler
Order deny,allow
Allow from all
AllowOverride None
PlsqlDatabaseConnectString <server name>:<port>:<SID >
PlsqlAuthenticationMode Basic
PlsqlDefaultPage wfa_html.home
PlsqlNLSLanguage "AMERICAN_AMERICA.WE8ISO8859P1"
</Location>
3. STOP and START OPMN (Oracle Process Manager & Notification Server)
4. Use the URL in your internet browser like --- <HTTP server URL>/pls/<SID>/wfa_html.home
5. When prompted for user id and password, give the schema user id and password where the workflow engine is installed.
Hope this helps,
Swagata

OWB 10gR2 Process Flow returning status = Complete and Result = Null

Hi,
I have a process flows i ran lot of times with success (it shows status = complete and result = OK). It invokes a lot of mappings and other flows
Sometimes one of invoked mapping or flows shows status = complete and result = Null and main process too.
The main process i invoked by a PLSQL store procedure using wb_rt_api_exec package. When status = Null the store procedure hangs and I have to kill it.
When it happens, owb service restart (new record in WB_RT_SERVICE_JOB_LOGS).
Can anyone help me?
The configuration that I am working with is as below ---
OWB client version : 10.2.0.1.31
OWB repository version : 10.2.0.1.31
Oracle Workflow Version : 2.6.4.0.0
Database version : 10g Enterprise edition release 10.2.0.3.0

Sometimes transitions in process flows get scrambled and you have to fix them by hand.....this happens and I dont know why.
Basically what happens is: every operator in process flow has three outgoing transitions (in general) marked as 0, 1 and 2, when you take a look at details property of your operator then in the outgoing transitions tab you should have ORDER collumn 0, 1, 2 for warning, error and success.
If this is not the case (0,1,2) process will not know what to return as value, and what is more bizzare this works until it does not :)
I dont know if this is your case but it's worth checking.

Several processes in SM50 show status as stopped and reason SLEEP

I have several batch jobs that are running and then sometime it shows up status "stopped" and Reason "SlEEP". There have been some slow DB writes but not sure what I can do about this.
Should I let them go and let them resolve themselves. Sometimes these jobs will cause performance issues.
Or do I delete cancel them to restart in the low usage periods.

Hi..
Not sure about your KERNEL PATCH LEVEL.
Check this note..
Note 1357780 - Long "stop" status for batch proc.; reason for wait "sleep"
Secondly as Dibya said...
Look a closer look at work proces trace file,
if you do not see any info desired....
increase the "TRACE LEVEL" of work process and chase for reason log in tracef file.
WORKPROCESS Trace info should give some clue / info to do a deep dive analyiss of your issue.
If you avail SAP Verion/ Kernel Version/ DB Version / OS Version ...
give more light to the signing in users to put their comments close to your issue.
We are sure, With Dibya reply itself, you would have got the reasons for the issue.
Finally,
What is your system utlization during peakload to rate low usage periods.

What is difference process constraints and hold and defaulting rule.

hi,
what is difference process constraints and hold and defaulting rule.
please give me a brief about all three.

Your question is quite broad but I will try.
1) Processing constraints are rules that you can define in OM that help you control the actions you can take on Order Headers, Order Lines, Invoices etc.
e.g. you can setup a processing constraint that says if you have picked an order, then you cannot cancel it.
Oracle comes with some seeded constraints but you can define your additional constraints as well.
See http://www.oracleug.com/user-guide/order-management/holds for details
2) Hold is a way of stopping progress on an order. e.g. If the customer's credit limit has been exceeded, you can have a hold applied to it. This will stop the order from getting shipped.
See http://www.oracleug.com/user-guide/order-management/holds for details
3) Defaulting rule is a mechanism to default values on sales order headers / lines etc. You can specifiy defaulting conditions and associate them with custom actions. e.g. you can say that if order type is INTERNAL then default the SUBINVENTORY on the order line to SPARES. Again, Oracle comes with some seeded ones. You can write your own. The defaulting rules also let you encapsulate complex logic in a pl/sql function and invoke it to default fields.
see http://www.oracleug.com/user-guide/order-management/defaulting-rules for examples

Purging EOIO messages with status "Holding" at the adapter level in XI.

Hi,
I want to purge a set of messages (some 800) with status "Holding" at Adapter level in RunTime Workbench. I have gone through the blog "/people/stefan.grube/blog/2006/04/27/how-to-deal-with-stuck-eoio-messages-in-the-xi-30-adapter-framework which explain the way to reprocess the messages which are stuck in EOIO so that the rest in queue are processed but is there a way to purge a large number of messages in a EOIO queue which are holding for long, at the adpater framework level thorugh some option in Runtime workbench or Visual Administrator of J2EE server on which XI is running ?

Hi Gourav,
What do you mean by delete files from folder.
I have this problem and I can't get rid of the messages that are stuck in the adapter engine.
If I need step 3. how is that done?
Thanks.

Message status "Holding" - Message monitoring adapter framework

Hello,
We have some messages with the status "Holding" in a queue in the message monitoring in the adapter framework.
Normally you have to restart the first message of that queue. The message with the status "system error". Unfortunately this message is not available anymore because it is older than 30 days and the retetion period is 30 days.
I already read the blog about "[How to deal with stuck EOIO messages in the XI 3.0 Adapter Framework|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/weblogs;jsessionid=(J2EE3417100)ID1887311350DB01819286872323159351End?blog=/pub/wlg/3566]"
The blog does not mention what to do when the first message (sequential number) is not available anymore.
Is it possible to restart the messages in the queue in that case?
Thanks
Kind regards
Frank

Unfortunately this message is not available anymore because it is older than 30 days and the retetion period is 30 days.
I assume that the message was deleted.....in this case the next message in the queue will be blocking the queue....so try resending this message....even the blog mentions that you either solve the error or cancel the message....so now start from the second message....if possible solve the error for this message....if not possible to resolve then cancel it so that rest of the queue gets processed
From the blog:
Now the erroneous message is the first message in the display. You can look at the error reason, try to fix the problem and
resend or cancel the message to release the queue.

Abhishek.

Message struck in adapter engine with status Hold

Hi,
In intergaration engine all messages are processed, I have checked SMQ1, SMQ2 (no message is struck in queue)
where as messages struck in adapter engine with status Hold, I have checked this in RWB. How to resolve this?
Regards,
Krishna

Hello,
Below is some information on how to resolve this type of issue:
1 - In the RWB, expand the tray for "Configure Table Columns" - by clicking on a square at the right end of this heading.
2 - Check the checkboxes for "Serialization Context" and "Sequence Number". These should then appear in the table columns as well.
3 - Add the Serialization Context to the Extended Filter Criteria. Search the messages in status HOLD based on this new additional criteria.
4 - Sort the messages in ascending order based on the Sequence no.
5 - Check the predecessor message of the first message in status "HOLD"
Based on the following status for this predecessor messages, the actions that can be taken for the HOLD messages are:
a - Predecessor is in Failed State/System Error : Cancel/Resend the
first message in status HOLD after this. Then the remaining messages
can be cancelled/resent.
b - Predecessor is in DLVD state(delivered state) : First Holding
message can be resent/cancelled followed by the others.
c - Predecessor is in NDLV(Non-Delivered Status) : Check why the
predecessor message failed and correct the reason for the failure.
Then resend the predecessor message and then cancel/resend the
remaining HOLD messages. Alternatively, you can directly try
resending this NDLV predecessor message and see if it goes. If it
goes, then the remaining HOLD messages can be resent/cancelled.
Another option could be to cancel this NDLV predecessor message so
that it goes to FAILED state and then cancel/resend remaining HOLD
messages.

Sarah

Message in status 'holding' without reasonable reason

Hi all,
I will explain this 'X file' problem.
We have an scenary between an R/3 --> XI --> R/3
The communication it's between an interface with .txt file; No conversion to XML, XI only does 2 steps at Interface Determination:
1º Writes in an FTP destination with Communication Channel Filereceiver
2º Executes an RFC who charges that file in a table at destination.
The interface sends between 100 and 200 files by day. At least 2 / 4 by day stays in status 'Holding'. These files are similar to another Succesfull messages.
At Integration Server, and SXMB_MONI, all logs are OK. But in Adapter Engine from RWB i see this log (For File CC and RFC CC):
2007-12-11 15:53:41     Success     Message successfully received by messaging system. Profile: XI URL: http://xixsap:59000/MessagingSystem/receive/AFW/XI Credential (User): XIISUSER
2007-12-11 15:53:41     Success     Using connection File_http://sap.com/xi/XI/System. Trying to put the message into the receive queue.
2007-12-11 15:53:41     Success     Message successfully put into the queue.
2007-12-11 15:53:41     Success     The message was successfully retrieved from the receive queue.
2007-12-11 15:53:41     Success     The message status set to HOLD.
If we make a "Resend", the message tries to be delivered again and sets to Hold.
If i resend the same file from original /out directory, it's processed fine.
Thanks in advance for your help

Hi Federico,
Holding is the state of an EOIO message that cannot be delivered until its predecessors have been delivered.
When the quality of service of the messages is exactly once in order (EOIO) and messages are delivered in the same sequence that they were sent from the sender system. For that reason a sequential number is assigned to the message.
When a message runs on an error during the processing, all other messages in the same queue will not be processed until the error is fixed or the erroneous message is cancelled from processing.
To solve the problem it is necessary to
1.find the message which blocks the queue.
2.If there are a huge number of messages in your system you search for the lowest sequential number in the queue.
3. If you know the name of the queue that is stuck, you can add the queue name as additional filter criteria. Click on Show Additional Criteria.
4. Enter the queue name to the field Conversation ID and set the parameter Quality of Service to Exactly Once in Order.
5. To be able to see the sequential numbers in the message monitor, you configure the table columns.
6. Add Conversation Id (that is the queue name) and Sequential Number to the table columns.
7. Scroll the window right to see the new columns. Sort the sequential number ascending (the upper triangle).
8Now the erroneous message is the first message in the display. You can look at the error reason, try to fix the problem and resend or cancel the message to release the queue.
9. After you have resent or cancelled the message all other message will be processed immediately.
You have of course to make sure, that the next message in sequence does not run on error too.

Hi,
Change the combination in message monitoring, this time chose Ingegration Engine & Database combination and if you have messages in holding then try to cancel them but first find and delete the system error messages if any.
If you get success here then change back the combination to Adapter Engine & Databse and then try to delete it again.
I am sure that it is possible coz same problem was there with me and then after doing some R&D I was able to delete them.

Query to track the holder and waiter info

I intend to use this query in a auto-generated mail which executes every 15 mins
I have put an outer join on the holder because the holder DML might have completed its execution (v$sqlarea might not have info about this holder DML) at the time the auto mail configuration fires this query
I am not a dba and was apprehensive if there is some mistake in the logic of my query.
