PSA Deletion Process failed in Process Chain

Hi..I have a bizzarre issue...
I have created one process step in Process chain for deletion of PSA data of a particulur data source(o days).Every setting is fine.
Except for it fails and gives message:
Data inconsistency; Partition /BIC/B0001723000 not deleted
Then I do the repeat in Process Chain and it completes successfully.
Can anybody throw some light??

Hi,
Go to se14 and adjust it - /BIC/B0001723000
thats it,
Best regards,

PSA Deletion Issue from the Process Chain

Hi,
I am facing problem in PSA Deletion from the chain. Scenario and issue as follow:
Scenario:
I have a PSA deletion Chain which got trigger daily. Which contains the many "Deletion of Requests from PSA" step. Datasources in the steps are from 3 different source system. Previously all are working fine. I am using 7.1 version.
Issue:
1. All PSA Deletion step working fine except the BW source system Datasources.
2. Few of the Datasources from BW source system are working fine(i.e, deleting the requests as per the condition given in the step.) and few are not(i.e, it does not pick up any request for deletion, but it have to delete some requests as per the conditions.).
All the PSA deletion steps are turns to green when chain executed.Few of them is not working from august and few are from the october(i.e, Not any specific date)
Please suggest me the solution for above issue.
Thanks in Advance.
Himanshu.

Hi ,
Goto display/maintain variant of the PSA deletion step and compare conditions of the Infopackages which delete data successfully with those which do not .
The condition given for the info-package whose data is not deleted from PSA , is not being satisfied that might be the reason the request is not deleted from the infopackage.

Rollup process failing in process chain

Hi All,
Daily the rollup processin in our process chain failing due to the fallowing error
"ORA-01400: cannot insert NULL into
("SAPBIW"."/BIC/E100093"."KEY_100093U") "
But once we repeat the rollup process in the process chain it is getting successfull.
Can you suggest solution for this error.
Thanks
Suneel

Hi Suneel,
As correctly mentioned by other to check logs and PSA data, you shour also check notes available on this error.
Probabaly some data in a field is causing this error, so need to analyize the values which are coming.
There are few notes on this:
ORA-1406 error/ ORA-1400 Cannot insert NULL
SAP Note Number: 211617
Hope it helps...

Event data change process failed in process chain

Hi All,
We have a process chain to broadcast the workbooks where we have three event data change processes in succession.
When this process chain is executed, the first event data change process is getting executed successfully, but the second process is getting failed every time. The error message is 'Session terminated.Cannot precalculate the workbook...'. Please let me know if anyone has faced the same kind of problem and also the remedy for it.
Thanks in advance
Hima Bindu

Hi,
Check the load on the precalculation server, also any errors occured for the precalculation of the workbook.

PSA Deletion variant in Process chain

When I add more than one PSA tables in one process step of Process chain would the deletion happen sequentially or parallelly?
In other words, if I have some 20 PSA tables to be deleted, can I put all of them in one step or should I put them in different steps - some 4 or 5 steps - to reduce load on system? (I need to keep only 2 days data in each table).

Hi,
it will happen sequentially. You can put them in one process step.
However, I recommend to include the PSA deletion systematically in each corresponding chain since you can control it and monitor it better.
hope this helps...

H how to find if the psa table is included in psa deletion process chain

Hi all
can anybody tell me .
I have a psa table it's technical name is /BIC/B*
h how to find the above psa table is included in psa deletion process chain or not
please help me

Hi
Ope the PC in RSPC1 -->go to planning view of process chain
in left side you will find different types of process types.
under other BW process types folder -->you will find process type "Delete request from PSA"
drag this into your process chain planning view and customize it based on your requirements.
check the below article for step by step procedure
http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/a02ba9e7-bb6f-2c10-09b4-e86b9fcbad41?QuickLink=index&overridelayout=true

PSA Deletion through Process Chain

Hi Experts,
Currently I am working on the BW3.5 version. I would like to delete the old PSA req through Process Chain. I need some clarification. Please provide me your suggestions. Thanks in advance.
1)In SAP-BW 3.5 version, there is only one process type u2018Deleting Requests from the PSAu2019 is available to do this activity. This process type can delete the requests from the PSA only or Will it delete PSA and Change Log tables!!!!! In the SDN threads, some people said it delete the PSA requests only and some said it delete the PSA requests as well as Change Log.
2)Currently we are having six process chain and each has master & transaction data load(Data load through PSA).
Similarly I am planning to create six PSA deletion process chain which includes master & transaction data deletion. Here I am got little complication on finding Object Name(PSA Table Name).Please refer the screen shot.Is there any short cut to find full list of Object Name(PSA Table) which is currently available in the Process chain every day load.
3)On the request selection, i prefer "Only sucessfully booked/updated req.". I did not select"Only those req with errors,that are not booked in a data target". Please share your view on this selection preference.

Hi Murali,
Thanks for the response. I do understand about the identifying the data source & PSA retention period(days). Let me elaborate my question little more. Thanks.

This process type can delete the requests from the PSA only or Will it delete PSA and Change Log tables!!!!! In the SDN threads, some people said it delete the PSA requests only and some said it delete the PSA requests as well as Change Log.If i am not mistaken, In BW 3.5 PSA deletion will leads through Change Log also.Am i right?

So I can go through info pkg level and find the data source,then i can identify the PSA table name. But is there any other simplest way to find the PSA table name.

Please share your view on this selection preference. May i know that which option is optimal on normal business process. If i did not select both options, then will that delete all the request in PSA!!!
Thanks.

/BIC/ namespace not modifiable, can't create PSA delete variant in process

Hello,
When I attempt to create a PSA delete process in a process chain, I get an error message as such:
Namespace '/BIC/' must be set to 'changeable' (transaction SE06)
Message no. R7063
I have had Basis dot his for me before and it worked, but it takes a lot of change menagement to do this. I have asked Basis to leave it modifiable in SE06, but they will not. Is that the only way to be able to create PSA process variants is to have Basis use SE06? I looked in Object Changeability, but nothing stuck out. I should not have to have Basis do this task every time. Please let me know if there is a better way.
Thank you.
Brent

Hi Brent
I believe /BIC/ namespace should remain modifiable where you are creating PSA deletion process.
You can check if that is the case in your system.
Check in TRNSPACE table with namespace /BIC/ .. changagle flag should be X. I think it should be in your production also

Process Chans:PSA Deletion

Hello Experts,
We are using a number of process chains (for transactional data).
Is it better to have a seperate process chain which performs the PSA deletion for all PSA tables? or is it better to include PSA deletion node seperately in respective process chains?
Please advice.
Regards,
LM.

Hi,
Its like PSA (persistent Storage area) since its a mandatory in Bi 7.0 so its loade too frequently, as a matter of fact it becomes too clumsy over the time, as a result it takes a whole lot of time to get deleted ,
including the deletion step in a Process chain will expand the running time to indefinite so its better to keep it as a seperate chain.
Hope this will suffice your concern
Thax & Regards

Problem delete chang log from process chain BW 7.01

We have upgrade BW from 3.5 version to 7.01 version two month ago.
Now I realized that the process chain running one a week to delete PSA and change log don't work well after upgrade.
The process chain end without errors (status is green), but the change log are not deleted.
In the test system I try to delete the Change Log in 2 mode:
1-with the variant "Deletion of Requests from the Change Log " and the datastoreobject = myods and all the option (correct request, incorrect request and "Delete Activation Requests Only"). In the log i see this messagge
The following excluded selections will be processed:
No excluded selections found
The following included selectiosn will be processed:
Pattern: DataStore = 0FIGL_O06, InfoArea = *
The following reqeust selections were set:
Number of days = 0000000010, Successful = X, Incorrect = X, Curr. Requests =
The following change logs were selected:
2-with the variant "Deletion of Requests from PSA " and the datasource= 8myods and all the option (correct request, incorrect request). In the log i see this messagge
The following excluded selections will be processed:
No excluded selections found
The following included selectiosn will be processed:
Pattern: DS = 80FIGL_O06, LS = BWTCLNT100, IS = , AC =
The following reqeust selections were set:
Number of days = 0000000015, Successful = X, Incorrect = X, Load requests =
The following PSAs were selected:
In both case the change log is not deleted.
I can delete the change log only using Manage screen of my ods and then using Menu -> Environment ->Delete Change Log Data.
Anna Maria

I see that this topic is still active/unanswered...
We're having the same problem, but not just changelogs, also for PSAs. We have a weekly process chain that does housekeeping on our BW system, cleaning up PSAs and changelogs, compressing cubes, realigning time-dep masterdata and renewing indexes.
The PSA chain runs fine and about 90% of all PSAs get deleted, but there are some datasources (all of them are of type 8* datamart datasources) that don't get their PSAs deleted. It says "The following PSAs were selected:" and then nothing happens...
I tried all tickbox combinations and checked that there are no PSA entries blocked by invalid partitions. Manual deletion (via "manage" in the datasource) works fine, but is tedious and time consuming.
Also, most of the 8* datasource PSAs do get deleted. Just a handful (+/- 25) get skipped somehow.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Eduard
PS: We're still running 3.5-style backend dataflow, but will eventually get converted to transformations and DTPs. But that's not on our agenda (yet).

Initiate and Fill BIA Index Step Fails in Process Chain

HI!
       In our weekend scenario for a cube, we refresh the data in a cube. What we do is, we delete BIA indexes before the data refresh in the cube, load the data, recreate the indexes using "Initialize and Fill BIA" step.
Last run the filling process failed and in the log it showed this message:
Lock for table 'table name'. Job will be restarted again later
We have it for many tables and at the end of the log:
FILLING_FAILED >CHECK LOG!!!!!
Please any advice in this?
Thanks,
Ghassan Matar

HI!
    After the investigation, we found that the root cause of the lock is the ODS Activation. We have two ODS's activation jobs running at the same time we were initialize and fill BIA indexes. We tested that in Staging and it causes the lock as well.
We implemented the Note 1223239 by setting the following parameters:
WRITEINDEX =        180
WAITTIME =            60
This weekend, the ODS Activation step ended before the BIA Initialize and Fill step by 4 minutes. The step created the indexes for the cube tables but it didn't continue to fill any index and it failed.
The Log is here.
NEW INDEX: /BI0/SVTYPE                                                                                RSD_TREX        100          S
NEW INDEX: /BI0/SSALESORG                                                                                RSD_TREX        100          S
NEW INDEX: /BIC/SZREGION                                                                                RSD_TREX        100          S

Also, after implementing the note: 1223239 with the parameters above, THE ODS Activation step was running in parallel with BIA Initalize and Fill step. the lock occured and after the completion of ODS Activation step all the locked tables get unlocked and filled properly except for 5 tables. It seems to me like kind of dead lock between these 5 tables. they take all the remaining time of the step and at the end BIA Initalize and Fill fails.
If you will notice in our log, it is only 5 tables remaining and they are repeated every minute. At the end, the step failed.
03:59:26 Lock for table '/BIC/SSEGRULE'. Job will be restarted again later
03:59:26 Lock for table '/BIC/SNPM_YEAR'. Job will be restarted again later

Deleting Request Automatically in Process Chains

Hi
I have two scenario's..
1. Data sources e.g. 0CO_OM_OPA_1, 0CO_OM_CCA_1 and 0CO_OM_WBS_1, it supports ONLY FULL data extraction process.. So, while extracting data, I want to delete the PSA request automatically, to have not more than 2 request, and the rest should be automatically deleted. Also, the Request needs to be deleted from DSO as well. How to delete the change log..
2. If a data source which supports DELTA process, what is the best practices to Delete data from PSA, DSO and cube???
3. what are the some of the routines jobs that needs to run to maintain BI system more effeciently ?
Thanks in advance

Hi.........
Delete PSA request will not delete Change Log table...............If u r in BI 7.0.then there is one process type : Delete Change log request..........this will delete Change log table.........but in BW 3.5.......there is no such Process types.........
Anyways.............if u r doing Data Marting..........then if u delete PSA table then Change log will get deleted..............since in this case PSA table is nothing but the Change log table.........
2. If a data source which supports DELTA process, what is the best practices to Delete data from PSA, DSO and cube???
Suppose U hav many process chains loading different targets...........then create a seperate chain for PSA deletion............include change log deletion also there.........completeion of the daily loads.........execute that chain..............but don't delete recent requests from PSA and change log both............delete old request.....like older than 10 days..............otherwise suppose any error occur............u cannot reload the request...........For change log.u cannot do delta............for foir pSA again u hav to do extraction........

Regarding "Delete Index" process in the process chain.

Hi Gurus
In the process chain, I have Delete Index -> Load Info pacakge -> Create Index process in the above order.
I am loading few records, so no need to delete indexes everytime. Can i remove the "Delete Index" process from the Chain without deleting the Create Index process. Or do I have to delete both.
Could you please clarify my doubt if possible in detail.
Thanks,
Regards,
aarthi

With the numbers you provided, you probably don't need to have the steps. With Oracle (not sure about all the other DB flavors) there are some other considerations:
Not having the indexes when loading the data can improve the load time since the bitmap indexes are not very efficient with respect to inserts/updates. The more dimensions you have, the more indexes there will be and the more noticable the impact of having the indexes present when loading.
The drop index process only drops the F fact table indexes. If you compress your cubes regularly so that you don't have many uncompressed requests, the index rebuild time will remain small, but if you have many uncompressed requests in your cube, the index rebuild time can begin to exceed whatever time you might save on the load with indexes deleted.
With bitmap indexes present, you can also occasionally receive a ORA-0600 deadlock error during the load process, and that can be prevented by dropping the indexes before loading or chose the load option packet by packet so that two packets are not trying to update the same index block at the same time.
Another concern in shops where reporting on the cube might occur during the load process - if you drop indexes prior to a load, any one trying to run a query on teh cube could have poor query performance since all the indexes will be missing onthe F fact table, this agina becomes more apparent the more data you have in the uncompressed fact table.
So it really comes down to your environment, but certainly drop the indexes any time you have large loads.

How to reset an failed asynchron abap-process in a process-chain?

Hi specialists,
I've got a process-chain which triggers (as one of its steps) an abap-program.
The program should run asychroniously, so the process-chain waits until the programm reports its ending.
When the abap-program fails/crashes/dumps, then the endings is never reported and the process-chain gets stuck.
If I try to re-run that process-chain, it fails again with the message "Variant XYZ still executing from previous run".
What I already found so far is the following note:
The process chain management will not know if your program terminates!
Thus if you re-start the chain, this will also terminate, because the old run would not have finished yet. To avoid this, you need to manually set the process in the chain log view in the process monitor to terminate before you start again.
My problem: I cannot find any possibility to set the process to "terminate" in the chain's log view.
Could you please gimme a hint where I can find that option?
Best regards,
Marco

Hi,
You can remove the process chain from scheduling before staring the process chain again.
Also can edit the entries in RSPROCESSLOG table before running the process chain.
Alternatively you can create a custom ABAP process type which handles the success as well as fail cases.
Refer : [How To- Trigger subsequent processes in a Process Chain based on the Success or Failure of ABAP program|/people/balaji.venugopal/blog/2009/04/07/how-to-trigger-subsequent-processes-in-a-process-chain-based-on-the-success-or-failure-of-abap-program]
