Profile parameter

Hi to all:
What is the difference between the following parameters?
u2022 es2/initial_size_MB and em/initial_size_MB
u2022 es2/blocksize_KB and em/blocksize_KB
Thanks in advance

Hi Shyam.D:
I am so sorry because I cannot understand it because as I have read, only 3 memory areas is created into SAP system, that is Roll Area, Extended Memory and Heap Memory.
If we have one parameter to can define the size of Extended Memory (em/initial_size_MB), why SAP AG provides some parameter with similar effect?
In particular of AIX systems:
Extended Memory:
u2022     EM/TOTAL_SIZE_MB
u2022     em/max_size_MB
u2022     em/initial_size_MB
u2022     es2/initial_size_MB
I understand after read your text, that in Extended Memory we can limit the size of the part of only user context with es2/initial_size_MB   and with   em/initial_size_MB we can specified the total of Extended Memory.
We have a Memory Area (Extended Memory), and we can set the total size that the user context can fill it, it is true?
What difference between EM/TOTAL_SIZE_MB and em/max_size_MB???
I have read the documentation of this parameters but I do not understand if Extended Memory area is dynamical or static in size are concerned.
u2022     If it is dynamical, what is the reason that justifies this method?
u2022     If it is static (as I think, that is, that is, that SAP allocation all size of the memory are once SAP startup), what is the reason of em/max_size_MB???
I am so sorry for all questions about this, but the relevant information of this is not clear from my point of view.
Thanks in advance

Profile Parameter : Time out for executing query on the web

Hi gurus,
I am executing queries on the web directly. This can be done from query designer with the button that says "Execute query on web". The problem is that for queries that take more than 600 Secs to run, I get an Application timed out error. Queries that take less than this run smoothly.
Can anyone please tell me the profile parameter associated with this particular setting. It is not rdisp/max_wprun_time, I know for sure since the value for this profile parameter in my system is 9999. Please help.
Thanks & rgds,
Sree

Issue resolved.
Profile Paramter - icm/server_port_0
Current Value - PROT=HTTP,PORT=8000,TIMEOUT=60,PROCTIMEOUT=600

Profile parameter icm/host_name_full is not set correctly

Hi All,
I am working on Solution Manager 4.0. When I execute TCODE "SOLUTION_MANAGER", it gives the following error:
Profile parameter icm/host_name_full is not set correctly (see long text)
When I click on "Long Text", it gives me the following message widow:
Message Number: SOL_GRAPHIC002
Diagnosis
The graphic cannot be displayed, since the profile parameter icm/host_name_full is not set correctly.
Procedure
Set the profile parameter icm/host_name_full correctly.
For more information, see SAP Notes 434918 and 677118.
I have referred to both the notes above. In note# 434918, it says that I need latest kernel patch (which is 150).Also the icm/host_name_full parameter parameter was not there in Solution Manager, so I created in the following manner:
Parameter Name =icm/host_name_full
Parameter Value=smgdcs1s.example.com
But however, the error continues to be the same.
Kindly help me asap.
Thanks in advance.

Profile Parameter to execute Abap Program at user logon.

Hi Experts
I've written a small printer selection program to change the users profile parameter.
Is there another profile parameter that can be given to execute this program automatically
when the user logs on.....The reason why I'm looking for a profile parameter to do this is, that only
certain users need to have this happen at logon.
Kind Regards
Vic

Hi Javi,
I don't think you need a custom process chain for this. You can use delivered Process Chain for logic and hard-code your script name in the package. In that script you can call BADI that has your ABAP program inside.
You can find guides how to build BADI here:[How to Pass Parameters to Custom Logic BADI using START_BADI|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/20f4252d-98ca-2b10-e689-f85085ae2d12] or here [Creating Custom Script Logic Keyword BADI's - BPC NW|Creating Custom Script Logic Keyword BADI's - BPC NW;.
Method IF_UJ_CUSTOM_LOGIC~EXECUTE has IT_CV as one of parameters. In your script you probably have to use *XDIM_MEMBERSET to get parameters from DM prompt. IT_CV will have all XDIM members.
Please let me know if you have any other questions.

Gersh

User Profile Parameter ID KVS not work

Hi,
I've got some troubles with parameter id KVS. I set it in my user profile,
parameter = KVS
value = B2
description = Version (CO)
when I call report GPCQE53LSADXCC16KZ1R96N5156001, there are two fields with this parameter,
and their value remain "0" instead of "B2".
I need to put the parameter value on one of this two fields, how can I do?
Could someone help me?
thank you in advance,
Fede

You can run Incremental Sync from user profile 3-4 times. This will delete the user profile from SharePoint UPA.
Now, we need to run UPA clean job timer job available in Job Definition inside central administration.
This is a by design issue which you have raised. But, to get it done on the same day you need to follow above mentioned steps. This would be done in some hour and cannot be achieved in 4-5 minutes. So, your original request is a by design issue and can be
done i some hours.

Setting profile parameter icm/HTTP/error_templ_path

Hi, I have a SAP Enterprsie Portal installation with only java stack (no abap stack),
i want to set a profile parameter icm/HTTP/error_templ_path,
please direct me how to set this parameter,
also, i need this parameter to be applicable for the SAP web dispatcher, i mean it should be effective for all java instances (i have 2 java instances),
please help,.......................as there is no ABAP stack, i dont know where to set this parameter

That parameter you mentioned describes of where the error templates can be found
You can generate your own static or dynamic error pages for the ICM
which are sent to the client if an error occurs. Use this parameter
to specify the directory in which the ICM can find the pages.
If this parameter is not set, the ICM returns its own static error
page.
For information about how to generate the error pages, see the
documentation in the SAP Library or using the Help Portal.
SAP Web Application Server -> Client/Server Technology ->
Architecture of the SAP Web Application Server -> SAP Web
Application Server Components -> Internet Communication Manager ->
Error Handling Using the ICM.
Eventhough u have only java stack u'll have an ICM.
Since the value for the parameter is just a string mentioning the path of the folder which contains the customised web pages.
Mention the same path in all the instance profiles (in your case 2 java instances).

Configuring profile parameter for a table lock object

Hi Experts-
I want to set the 'wait time' (_WAIT) parameter as a profile parameter for a table lock object.
I have created a lock object on a ZTable. I lock and unlock this object in exclusive non-cumulative mode through the enqueue and dequeue lock object function modules. These generated FMs are invoked via my custom function module.
My function module will run in the background as a scheduled task in R/3. I execute the Enqueue FM at the start of the FM and keep the table locked until the last step finishes in my FM and then I Dequeue it. I want to have the processing wait and retry the Enqueuring FM at set intervals in case the one run doesn't finish entirely and a new run of this same job kicks off.
Thank you,
- Vik.

Set the wait parameter = 'X'. These means that if it encounters a lock, then it will wait a certain time for the lock to be released. This certain time is a system value set by your basis team. I don't imagine it being a very long time.
CALL FUNCTION 'ENQUEUE_EZPIPHYINVREF'
       EXPORTING
            MODE_ZPIPHYINVREF = 'E'
            MANDT             = SY-MANDT
            _WAIT             = 'X'.

Profile parameter for passwords - conflicting documentations.

Greetings!
I've encountered an issue with profile parameter login/password_max_idle_productive
Integrated help in SU01 says:
You can use the profile parameter login/password_max_idle_productive to define the point as of which the validity of the productive password ends. The time is calculated from the date of the last password change plus the number of days specified in the profile parameter. Password-based logon is then not possible from this point.
This makes this parameter redundant (we have login/password_expiration_time ).
SAP Library says (see link below):
Specifies the maximum period for which a productive password (a password chosen by the user) remains valid if it is not used.
Which suggests that the time after which passwords are considered expired is calculated from last logon date plus whatever is the parameter value.
SU01 help specifies explicitly how this parameter works but it conflicts with a more ambiguous description found in the SAP Library. The observed system behavior on logon is in line with SU01 help, but report RSUSR200 does not list the user as having an expired productive password.
We're on ECC 6.0, release 701 with support package 3. I could not find any SAP notes relating to this issue.
Has anyone encountered this issue before or have I just run into an odd glitch?
[SAP Library|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70ehp1/helpdata/en/22/41c43ac23cef2fe10000000a114084/frameset.htm]

It sounds like you have a requirement to set the expiration time (when the user has to change the password) which is for a different user group than those for which you want to disable an idle password. Currently, both are global settings and affect both user groups (actually, all users of type DIALOG and COMMUNICATION - only SERVICE and SYSTEM type users are not affected).
In that there is an option for you... but be aware of license implications... or you can upgrade to 7.02 early next year (I think this is the correct release, time and release "alias" for it..) and then the config your security policies client dependently!
Currently, your best option is to not set these two global parameters illogically and monitor the user group manually from RSUSR200.
In the wild, many folks use the user type difference to workaround this, but that is also global to the user type so they are excepted from the expiration time as well. Additionally, not all functionality is available to them on the client side (e.g. SAP Logon Tickets won't work) and the authority-checks are even slightly different on some special cases.
Personally, I don't understand why users with authorizations to make purchase requests only should change their passwords more often (expiration time) or be more active (idle time) than those with SAP_ALL etc.
> I hadn't considered SSO since we do not currently use it.
SSO solves several of these problems by deleting the password completely...

Julius

PI 7.1 Exchange profile parameter:

Hi
I got a chance to have a look at PI 7.1. While going through the Exchange Profile parameters, I found a new addition to the existing parameter list. Its called internal. I could not find any information about it.
help.sap documenation also does not make a mention of this parameter
I want to know why this parameter is required. Please help.
Best regards,
Hari

Hi,
I am not sure but most of the Exchange profile parameter are to be for SAP Intyernal use only that should not be altered while custom Installations.
May be that kind of paramteres have sagreegated under Internal category to restrict the changes for it.
Thanks

Setting profile parameter

Hi all,
To use dynamic error handling in the ICM or Web dispatcher, we must set the profile parameter icm/HTTP/error_templ_path to the directory with the error template files.
How can we do this? Where do we set the profile parameter? Is there any TCode for this?
Regards,
Saurabh

go to rz10
choose instance profile
choose radiobutton extended maintenance.
click change
in the resulting screen click create button now using F4 choose the desired paramter and set its value
check out this online documentation about error template and where it can be stored.

Profile parameter changes

Hi gurus,
while changing the profile parameter login/min_password_lng, getting error E:login/min_password_lng is not identified identically on all servers. kindly help me to change the profile parameter login/min_password_lng.
thanks in Advance,
Anbu

Hi,
When you define a parameter at instance level this overrides the global definition. I believe you have removed the instance level definition for this parameter ?? Ensure that this parameter is defined ONLY in the DEFAULT profile . The summary is to have one value for this parameter for the whole SAP system rather than having different values for different application servers as a security policy parameter(of this kind) is something to do with a complete SAP system.
Let us know.
cheers !

Profile Parameter changes after RAM Upgrade?

Hi,
We are using SAP ECC 6.0 on AIX 5.3 and IBM p595 seriers
Now we have upgrade the Physical memory (RAM) from 8 GB to 16 GB.
After Upgrading/Degrading the Physical memory (RAM) from the Server,What manual Changes has to be done for Profile parameter.Please provide the details.
Cheers
Deepu

Hi ,
After Changing the RAM in SAP System ..
1) Increase the No of Work Processes , If Required
2) Increase the size of Memory Areas ( Size of Extended Memory) , If you face any Memory Dumps
3) Increase the SAP Buffer Sizes ( Program Buffer etc.) to have better performance.
But it is not compulsary that you should change these parameters but changing these Paramters Values will improve performance of SYstem

Abap/SIGCHILD_default profile parameter

Hi All,
I tried to add the parameter abap/SIGCHILD_default in instance profile and it's value as 'on' but I recieve a message - 'Unknown parameter abap/SIGCHILD_default, a check cannot be performed', 'Parameter value not permitted'.
I already referred the Note 790017 - sy-subrc of CLOSE DATASET if FILTER addition used and our SAP release is 701 EhP4.
However, still I continued and now parameter is added into the profile and profile is activated after SAP restart.
Any idea why it says that parameter not permitted? And I think still this parameter has no relavance in our system because we recieved that particular message ?
Thanks and Regards

Hi Juan,
Thanks for quick reply.
I found another note similar to what you said, for e.g. Note 903245 - VMC Profile Parameters are not known in RZ10/RZ11, however parameters are different.
This note suggests, 'You can add VMC parameters with RZ10, also if RZ10 doesn't know the parameter name. Important is, that the kernel knows it. If the kernel doesn't know the parameter too, it will be ignored.'
Please confirm, is it the similar case here with 'abap/SIGCHILD_default' ? In earlier note I pasted it was written - 'In the SAP Kernel 7.00, the profile parameter abap/SIGCHILD_default is available since Patch Level 0'. So I think for our SAP Release 701 this parameter is already available for our kernel and it will work fine despite that 'unknown parameter' message in RZ10 ?
In RZ11, I see the same messgae - 'The parameter name is not known'.
Thanks & Regards
Subba Rao

Profile Parameter required

One of our new password policy's requirement is to have
" The new password may have no more than 1 pair(s) of repeating
characters"
Could anyone please provide me the profile parameter by which we can set this rule?
I had given some examples for the same in attached doc.

Hi Jan,
The new password mechanisms allow you to use "pass-phrases" in stead of "passwords". Too many entries in USR40 only weaken the password by excluding patterns for a dictionary attack.
For example, you can now use a pass-phrase such as:
"This passw0rd is easy to guess!"
or
"Do keep the kitch3n clean?"
or
"1 2 3 4...Goalllllllll!!!!!!!!!!"
If all words with paîrs of ASCII characters or patterns were forbidden, then the pass-phrase is weakened.
Rather throw in a special character and a digit and train the users to use pass-phrases. This can be hard though with folks who have been around for a long time and have a mental block at the 8th character of the SAPGui logon screen. I count myself to that league as well
In my opinion only company names, SID's, months and seasons are still usefull in USR40, along with swearwords...
Cheers,
Julius

Profile parameter name

Hi Gurus,
What is the profile parameter name which is used to increase the character length of user name?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
There is NO such profile parameter exists to control the character length of User Name.
You can change the character length of this field in the following way ONLY.
Go to TCode: SE11 and Change the character length of the field " BNAME " (Data Element: XUBNAME) in the USR* tables. Basically you need to change the Data element character length from default 12 to your desired value.
But the main heads up is that you need a Developer Access key, as this is "Modifiation" and Not customization.
Please let me know if these information is helpful.

Dipanjan
