//SAP is shared in window Platform

Hi All,
Could anyone please let me know that why the SAP folder is shared in window platform.
I am talking about /USR/SAP, in this SAP is shared to all the user in server.
And i have unshared it as per the security policy, and from 1 month i have not found any issue in the system.
Hence, could any one please confirm why by default this folder is shared.
Thanks in advance.
Best Regards,
Prashant Dubey

> Could anyone please let me know that why the SAP folder is shared in window platform.
Because all tools use UNC paths (like
server\share) to access the tools and not drive letters.
Additionally, that is needed for the transport system and also if you have several application servers that share the same kernel.
> And i have unshared it as per the security policy, and from 1 month i have not found any issue in the system.
You may run into problems later (upgrades etc.)
> Hence, could any one please confirm why by default this folder is shared.
This topic is covered in the installation guide.

SAP NW 7.0 Java trial version on windows platform

Hi,
I am searching for a SAP NW 7.0 Java trial version on windows platform in the "Downloads" sessions. But I couldn't find it there. Can anybody help me finding this trial version?
Thanks,
Kris

Hi Kris
Except the trial version, if you have a Sxxxxxxx user in Service Market Place(http://service.sap.com), I would like to recommend
you install the netweaver developer workplace version, which can be installed on your laptop with windows XP, which should
be better than the trial version.
Thanks

SAP NetWeaver 2004 & 2004s Trials and Previews on Windows Platform

Has anybody installed "SAP NetWeaver 2004 & 2004s Trials and Previews on Windows Platform" which is in the downloads section.
It says it supports Windows2000, & Windows XP also, but when I tried to install it on Windows XP says "prerequisite conditions not met. you need windows 2003Server or worktation etc" message. Even then I tried continuing installtion but it failed.
Also, did anyone try installing it on Windows Vista? Any luck?

SAP App server on windows uses paging not RAM... need help

Experts,
We have installed a separate SAP application server on windows 2003 service pack 2. Our server has 25 GB Ram and 2 processors each with 4 cores. We have set the extended memory of SAP to 5 GB. Now, the problem is that: when we start the SAP instance on this machine then it is taking memory from Paging not From RAM. We have paging set to 20 GB and if we examine the server then our RAM is free and paging is in used by SAP instance. Our SAP version is ERP 6.0 and NW 7.01
Please guide and help me so that SAP instance on our windows machine utilize RAM not paging.
Thanks,,
Yasir

I highly suggest upgrading to Windows 2008 (R2).
Windows 2003 has known issues with huge amounts of shared memory which can't be fixed in that old OS. You may decrease this effect with
Note 1009297 - Windows Server 2003 Family: High Paging Rates
The effect is also indirectly described in
Note 1316558 - System hang situations on Windows Server 2003
Upgrade to Windows 2008 (R2), Windows 2003 is almost 10 years old. It's like you would use Windows 98 on a todays PC.

Content Coversion in Receiver Channel to Windows platform adding xtra space

I am using SAP's content conversion module, MessageTransformBean, to build a file from a proxy. If I send the file to a UNIX platform, everything is ok. If I send the file to a Windows platform, an extra space is added at the end of each line, making the record length 1 character too long. I changed it to comma delimited, and the extra space was not added. Is there anything special I need to do when sending to a Windows platform?

Cannot execute sapevt.exe on a Windows platform

Hi
for some reason I cannot get the sapevt.exe program to raise an event in SAP when running on a Windows platform. The command line I'm using is :
D:\usr\sap\<SID>\SYS\exe\uc\NTAMD64\sapevt.exe event=EVENT_NAME -t2 name=<SID> pf=D:\usr\sap\<SID>\SYS\profile\DEFAULT.PFL
It doesn't write an dev.evt trace file either. Also I'm using inside a VB script.
I can raise the event from within SAP Tcode SM62 and it runs fine in a Unix environment with slightly different parameters of course
Anybody help please.
I've looked at notes 802172 and others and tried all the suggestions within.
Thanks
Regards
Steve

I have the following command defined in SM69 that works on our Windows-based SAP systems:
Operating system command = sapevt
Parameters for operating system command = ? -p ? -t pf=$/DIR_INSTALL/\profile\default.pfl
Additional Parameters Allowed is checked
What not try and define that and then trigger it inside SAP itself? It might clue you in as to what the issue might be. The input parameters are the event name and then any additional parameters when triggering the event.

PI Migration from AS/400 to Windows platform

Dear pals,
I've been assigned the task of migration of PI infrastructure of our organization,which is currently based on AS/400(IBM I-series). I've to migrate it to windows platform (Windows 2008 Ent.Edition,64-Bit). Please if someone could provide guidance over the matter.

Running PI on iSeries or Windows platform??

Hi,
We are in the process of purchasing/installing PI 7.1. We are running our ECC6.0 on iSeries and we are now considering what platform to use for the PI. Our server guys are a bit worried that a PI on the iSeries might cause performance problems or the need to purchase additional hardware.
Are there any advantages (or disadvantages) to put the PI on a windows platform when ECC is on iSeries?
best regards,
Glenn Karlsson

Hi Glenn,
have you done your choice ?
I can say that iSeries is much more stable for SAP Java stack !
Naturally depending on the volume of messages worked by PI ......... and the HW available resouces on your iseries server.
I've bad feedback from my customers with PI on Windows but depends on workload.
You might do a sizing by your IBM partner.
No problems with a mixed landscape windows for PI and iseries for ECC.
Kind Regards
Fabio

More than one SAP systems on same Windows Server 2003 - Oracle 10g

Hello Experts,
We have Windows Server 2003 with 32 GB RAM, 2 quadcore CPU, plenty of space. Already running with NW 700 AS Java on Oracle 10g.
Now we need to install a seperate NW 700 AS Java central instance - so please help me in clarifying following doubts - we don't want to use MCOD.
1. Do we need to install Oracle 10g software again or we can use the existing Oracle 10g installed files. If yes then will the Oracle Home for both the SAP instances will be same - any steps needs to be done for that.
2. Any other steps which needs to be taken care before and after the second instance installation.
3.SAP Note 98252 - speaks about changes in oraInst.loc before the second instance installation - Does it applicable for Windows - Oracle environment also. I am not able to find out this file.
Listener and Tnsnames file changes mentioned in this note seems to be applicable on windows platform also.
Pointers to related documentation would be highly appreciated.
Thanks
Davinder

Hello Davinder,
> 1. Do we need to install Oracle 10g software again or we can use the existing Oracle 10g installed files. If yes then will the Oracle Home for both the SAP instances will be same - any steps needs to be done for that
Theoretical you can use the same ORACLE_HOME, but i would really recommend to install the database software again in a different ORACLE_HOME. It will make a lot of things easier
> 2. Any other steps which needs to be taken care before and after the second instance installation.
The same as by the first installation, but keep in mind of the listener port - you will need to specify a different one.
> Does it applicable for Windows - Oracle environment also. I am not able to find out this file.
On windows it is a registry key (for more information please take a look at metalink note #564192.1)

SAP BPC 7.0 - Microsoft Platform - SP Upgrade Question

Hi Experts,
I was tasked to upgrade the SP of our client's SAP BPC 7.0 -Microsoft Platform System from Release 7.0.116 (SP07) to SP09. Details are below
Prod System:
Multi Server : 2 Servers
Application Server:
Windows Server 2003, Enterprise Ed SP2 32-Bit
IIS Web Server
SAP BPC 7.0 Release 7.0.116
Database Server:
Microsoft Windows Server 2003 x64 64-Bit
MS SQL 2008 64-Bit
My question, since Server Manager Version 7.0.116 is equal to SP07, do i need to download SP08 and SP09, and then apply SP08, and the underlying patch on top of SP08, then SP09, or can i just simply download only SP09 and then install it only in our App Server, since it was mention in the Upgrade Guide that SP of SAP BPC are cumulative. And if there are any configuration settings that i need to take unto consideration? I'm new to this one since I'm accustomed of SP Upgrade in SAP ECC Systems in TxCode SPAM.
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
After performing the steps Nilanjan suggested you may want to look at the Post-Installation Steps recommended by SAP. They are as below:
Post-Installation Steps
1. If you already have an application set in your previous version, do the following:
a) After installing this support package, update existing reports by choosing Publish Report on the Web Administration page.
b) If you have already enabled Insight, update existing reports by choosing Build Report on the Insight Dashboard page.
c) To apply fixes available for business rules, choose Modify Application within the Administration Console. Do not select options related to desired application.
2. This support package contains an appset parameter called RETRIEVE_ON_OFFLINE. To restrict data retrieval while an application set is unavailable, access the Appset Parameter page within Web Administration, then add a key named RETRIEVE_ON_OFFLINE with one of the following values:
1, which allows retrieval or data export while the application set is unavailable.
0, which prevents retrieval or data export while the application set is unavailable.
Log off and then logon to BPC for Office if the system offline message displays after setting the application set to Available. This downloads the dimension cache file if a dimension member or structure has changed while the system was offline.
3. We recommend changing the syntax of dimension formulas related to CSS message [IM 1249006] Data Integrity Issue with Account dimension / 4 Hierarchies as follows:
a) Use [%dimension%].[%current hierarchy%].CurrentMember. Level.Ordinal>0 instead of [%dimension%].[%the other hierarchy%].[All %dimension%.%the other hierarchy%] in dimension formulas to check the status of the current view of the current hierarchy because the current member may have been changed as a member of another hierarchy within multiple hierarchy dimensions.
b) Use 0 (zero) instead of NULL in IIF statements when the member from the current view does not match the condition of the IIF statement, as NULL may return an incorrect value. For example, if the hierarchy is the third hierarchy, #iif([Account].[H3].CurrentMember.Level.Ordinal>0,%Arg%, 0).
4. To run the Management Console in multiple server environments, change Authentication and Access Control of the ManagementConsole virtual directory in IIS from Integrated Windows Authentication to Basic Authentication. You can find the virtual directory on the Application server in the Directory Security tab of the virtual directory's property in IIS.
Hope this helps.

When I try to start the business connector through a Windows service then I get the message "Could not start the SAP Business Connector Service on Local Computer. Error 126: The specified module could not be found".
I have a working business connector installation on a Windows 2000 server, and when I checked the error log of that installation I noticed that it had logged the same errors about the 'WmPartners' package. It on the other hand didn't have any problems loading the 'SAP' package.
I tried installing the business connector on two different systems with identical results. Has anybody been able to get the business connector to work on Windows XP?
