SMLG load balance

Dear Experts,
We are using logon groups for load balance. Logon quality is used to determine the next logon server.
We want to change this algorith with something like round robin. Each dialog instance should accept one user so user count will be identical on all dialog instances.
Any way to perform this?
best Regards

Dear Sez .
I am not sure about changing the algorithm to round robin as desired but we can improve poor distibution of user.
++++++++++++
RSRZLLG0 is the report that updates the data used by SMLG. RSRZLLG0
itself is called by SAPMSSY6 which is an automatically started report (aso-called 'autoabap', which will be started all five minutes. Or, to be
more exactly, will be started at the interval that is given in the
parameter rdisp/autoabaptime (default 300 seconds).
Please go to transaction SMLG, and than goto -> load distribution.
There you will see a response time of the individual application
servers.
1. Assign Heavy transaction user groups to the servers with more
computing power and memory. This will ensure that even if these users use the resource concurrently, they will not face performance issues
to a greater extent.
2. Estimating the optimum value for response time and logged in users is Difficult. But you can definitely base these values on the average
response of the server that is acceptable to the users and they can
work comfortably without performance issues. The number of users can
be based upon the situations that you have faced when :
a) n Number of users were logged in and the performance of the server was acceptable.
b) y Number of users were logged in and users started complaining
about the server response.
The limits that we discussed do influence the algorithm for load
balancing to some extent. But at the same time we cannot fully influencethe same. However you can try to implement the changes and further fine
tune the limits as per requirements.
Due to the large fluctuations in response times for each instance
then you should consider the changes in the logon load balancing
algorithm of note #51789 (Poor user distribution in logon distribution)
to give more weighting to the users than response time than default
for Quality values in SMLG to get more equal load balancing between
the instances.
Hope this information may / may not help you

  • Exposing a webservice on ECC 5.0 in a load balancing setup

    Hi
       We have a webservice exposed on ECC 5.0 that is being invoked by an external system. When we move this webservice to our production environment - which is load balanced and has a logon group setup - we need to be able to expose this webservice - not on a single application server - but be available on the logon group ( message server ) so that the url that we provide for the webservice to the external system does not contain  a single application server - but points to the logon group. We do not have a web dispatcher in our environment/architecture.
    How do we go about exposing this point-to-point webservice on ECC 5.0 in a load balanced setup ? Any suggestions, experiences that can be shared ?

    This  can be done though SICF.
    If you click on a service, their is a service data tab.
    underthat tab is a Load Balancing option.
    This then points the service at the SMLG logon group.

  • Error while configuring logon load balancing

    Hi,
    I am trring to configure logon load balancing in cluster environment.
    I had created the logon group using T-Code SMLG and assigned the message server to logon group.
    I am using SAP GUI 720.
    In the front end system, i had added the host file entry as well as added u201Csapma<SID>  3600/tcpu201D as my CI instance number is 00.
    I had created u201Csapmsg.iniu201D and put the entries as below based on sapnote 38119

    Ex: <SID>=x.x.x.x
         <SID>=x.x.x.x
    Message Server Description
    <System ID 1>=<Description of message server 1>
    Ex: <SID>=CI
    But while selecting u201CGroup/Server Selectionu201D I am getting error   u201CError: partner x.x.x.x:sapms<SID> not reached u201C.
    On the logon pad I had given the following information:

  • RFC Sender (XI 3.0, SP14) Load Balancing doesn't work

    Hi all,
    We're "desperately" trying to use the Load Balancing option of RFC Sender Adapter (XI 3.0, SP14). It doesn't work.
    The Adapter can not register to the sender SAP server. But when we do not use the "Load Balancing" option, everything works well.
    We did follow the XI guidelines step-by-step. All necessary configurations in XI and in SAP sender system (TA: SM59) are "properly" done and reviewed by different experts several times.
    Do you have, by chance any running scenario using "Load Balancing" within a RFC Adapter? If yes, I would appreciate if you can share it with me. 
    Thanks a lot!
    Regards,
    Khaled

    Hello Khaled,
    the RFC sender adapter registers a program at the SAP Gateway. Load Balancing for the Sender Adapter means, that you have at least two J2EE server nodes within your XI installation. On all these server nodes the same RFC sender adapter is started and register the same program at the same gateway. The load balancing is then handled by the gateway. That means, that for the sender adapter the settings are the same, even if you use load balancing or not.
    The settings are, e.g.
    - SID=ABC
    - hostname=abchost (central instance, message server)
    - hostname=xyzhost (additional dialog instance of ABC)
    - instance nr=00
    application server (gateway): xi1host
    application server service (gw-service): sapgw00
    programm id: could be freely choosen
    The Metadata Repository could be connected using load balancing. Here a user need to log on to the system.
    The settings here must be:
    Message-Server: abchost
    Message-Server-Service: sapmsABC
    System-ID: ABC
    Logon-Group: e.g. PUBLIC; this logon group need to be created in system ABC using transaction SMLG
    For the RFC-Receiver Adapter the same settings as for the Metadata could be used.
    Keep in mind, that for the RFC Sender Adapter a RFC connection of type T must be created in transaction SM59 in system ABC.

  • Load balancing testing.

    Hi Gurus,
    For load balancing purpose we have installed sap in one more box (crm
    quality system). now i need to test whether load balancing is
    happening or not in below scenarios..
    1.) Test the Load balancing on the C.I and D.I.
    2.) Take Multiple Logins and compare the Load Balancing
    3.) Maintain the Variation of Job such as on-line process and background.
    4.) Monitor the Login System for each Variation
    So first i tested the transaction codes like sm04, and smlg and checked with users and how much bytes they are occuping i have tested.
    please give me your inputs in which way i could test it better  and what are all the various aspects??
    Thanks

    HI ,
    For load balancing you can check the load on the Ci and DI .
    Just goto SM51 ,there you shall see the CI and the DI there.double click on the ci.
    Now run St02 and st03n and St06 and check the performance.
    Do the same for the Application Server.
    I shall suggest that if you have more application server Just Remove the CI from the logon load balancing to have better performance.
    for more details go through this Link to check logon load balancing at os level

  • Load Balancing Rules for BIGIP

    I am running single-user applications that fall into two

    The files being streamed are on a NAS.

    Hello!
    Found this post while searching information about RFC and Logon Groups...
    I have some mess in my head with SMLG functionality and RZ12. As I know SMLG we can use to distribute users to application server instances, it gives us good achievement in performance. With RZ12 we can distribute RFC connection of particular job for parallel execution on predefined application server. With SMQS and SMQR transaction we can set "Name of AS Group" to route RFC-execution on certain server or servers. But I have troubles with understanding. Imagine, we set up group 1 with 2 servers (name it RFC_GR1), and group 2 with another 2 servers (name it RFC_GR2). How could qRFC scheduler decide on which RFC server group (RFC_GR1 or RFC_GR2) distribute RFC-execution? How to interact "Name of AS Group" with RFC groups if we can set only one group?   How could we distribute RFC-execution depending on our logon groups (smlg)? We would like to distribute RFC depending on SAP logon groups. Is it possible? Or do I compare apple and orange?

  • Load balancing by RZ12 Serger Groups

    Hi.
    I'm trying to get some knowledge about this subject for my prod. BI system. Maybe some of you, almighty masters of SAP administration (standard flattering), could give me a hand
    Here's the situation: We've a BI system (NW 7.0 ehp1) with 4 servers ( CI + 3 appl.serv). We've defined both a server group (RZ12) and a logon group (SMLG), with the same name, for bw load purposes. That means mostly background and dialog processes, with less number of end-user logons, so I'm focusing in the Server Group configuration.
    Now, the problem: Basically, the number of processes are not properly balanced. Servers 1 and 2 get about the 80% of the work, while other two, 3 and 4 just the other 20%.
    I've been reading and investigating but most of the documentation refeers to the logon group load balancing algorithms in SMLG, by the setting of group-dependnet atribute "Ext. RFC-enabled", with it's corresponding "Fab.Typ" algorithm
    What i want to know if it's there's a way to know that balancing algorithm/method it's being used in RZ12 rfc server groups, and how can I verify and even modify that behaviour.
    I've been checking this notes:
    Note 593058 - New RFC load balancing procedure
    Note 1508504 - Load balancing in background processing
    Also:
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70ehp1/helpdata/en/a4/db833d4c47ea4ea1a9b7af3c535ff2/content.htm

  • Logon Load Balancing error

    Hi
    I am trying to setup Logon Load Balancing for our ERP system, I have setup the logon groups in TX SMLG, the landscape consists of DB server app1 and app2, I have created a logon group for app1 and logon group for app2, I have then created a new system entry in the SAP Logon Pad under Group/Server Selection, here I have a problem in that when I enter the message server I get a message saying Error: hostname <message server> unknown, however when I enter the ip address for the message server I get the list of logon groups appear, however, I have entered the sapmsS02 3600/tcp setting within the services file, I have also added the ipaddress and the hostname of the message server into the hosts file, but I still cannot get the hostname to work within the message server.  When I test the logon I get the error message Logon Balancing Error 88: Cannot connect to message server (rc=9), I have searched the net and most people just suggest entering the details into the services file and host file, also a sap note which suggests issues within the registry for Microsft MSN which I have checked and still have the same issue.
    Does anyone have anymore ideas as to what this could be or what to try next?
    Thanks for your help
    Jay

    Dear Jay,
    It is not the service that can not be resolved, that is translated into an IP address, but the hostname. It depends on your system and the way in which it does hostname resolution, whether the hosts file will be used at all. So please check with the keyword 'hostname resolution' on how to set this up on your landscape.
    Best Regards,
    Tim

    How to find the port & host  used for load balancer in Dual stack systems. ABAP & Java.

    Thanks
    As I mentioned that you can see the configured ports in your system earlier.
    Now you have to decide which port you want to use and open that port in your firewall.
    I am not sure which load balancer you want to configure.
    Is it a hardware device or software?
    In my point of view ,we have smlg configured in ABAP for load balancing.
    Do you want a load balancing for web clients since you mentioned sapwebdispatcher.?

  • Portal Landscape - With 2 CSM (load balance) related question

    Hi,
      We are currently having a portal landscape (Dev, QA -2 app servers, PRD - 4 app servers). The load balancing happens on Production Portal using CSM (load balancer) and it does SSL offloading for security encryption and it lands onto one of the application servers. When we try to login to portal it authenticates using the LDAP (OID). And we have some links which takes to backend R/3, BW etc (we use SAP load balance using SMLG logon group)
    Now due to another special project the following is what we are planning:
    1. Adding couple of more application servers for production portal or having seperate second portal landscape itself
    2. Adding couple of more application servers for R/3 production server (load balance can be done with special logon group for that)
    Questions are:
    1. When we land into current production portal page and click a iview link for the special project it should go only to those special portal app servers (planning to do through another CSM) and from their to backend R/3. In this scenario how the authentication (or sso ticket) happens when it goes from CSM to another CSM, will it ask for login again or any issue will happen with SSO ticket ?
    2. If we decide to go for second portal landscape and in the same scenario when login to current prod portal page and click a iview link for the special project it should go to that another production portal,in that case what will happen to the login authentication happened through the first portal and SSO ticket ?
    3. Suppose if we go to the second production portal directly through a website and if the user tries to login using the same id to first portal how portal will deal in terms of security (SSO) and also how backend R/3 will behave when same id comes as part of SSO.
    Or if anyone thinks of any other issue apart from SSO or encryption related things which i need to be aware of, kindly let me know.
    Thanks,
    Murali.

    I am not sure what CSM is, but I would expect it only does ssl offloading and a sort of "reverse proxy" against the cluster.
    >1. When we land into current production portal page and click a iview link for the special project it should go only to those special portal app servers (planning to do through another CSM) and from their to backend R/3. In this >scenario how the authentication (or sso ticket) happens when it goes from CSM to another CSM, will it ask for login again or any issue will happen with SSO ticket ?
    This depends on the host name you use for the two CSM clusters. If they have the same subdomain, there should be no problem as the SAP Logon Ticket (MYSAPSSO2) cookie is issued to the sub domain of the portal.
    If they do not have the same subdomain, the second CSM cluster will receive the request without the MYSAPSSO2 cookie, and will therefore trigger reauthentication.
    >2. If we decide to go for second portal landscape and in the same scenario when login to current prod portal page and click a iview link for the special project it should go to that another production portal,in that case what will >happen to the login authentication happened through the first portal and SSO ticket ?
    It will fail, as the MYSAPSSO2 cookie from the first portal is not recognized in the second. However, you can easily setup so that the second portal trusts the first and does a logon based on its credentials
    >3. Suppose if we go to the second production portal directly through a website and if the user tries to login using the same id to first portal how portal will deal in terms of security (SSO) and also how backend R/3 will behave >when same id comes as part of SSO.
    I assume both portal will be setup against the same LDAP/UME source. Therefore it will allow the logon. The backend systems should trust both the first and second portal (STRUSTSSO2 transaction)
    I think your architecture choice comes down to if the new project has special considerations with regards to versioning of portal. If it does, it would be sensible to separate it into a separate portal (and you can always integrate them with the first portal through portal federation if you have a relatively new version).

    Is your backend system configured correctly in your SLD ?
    Go to transaction SMMS on your backend system that your are connecting to. Click on Goto=>Parameters=>Display. Look for "server port" value.
    This should give you the TCP/IP port for your message server. It could be 3600 or 3601 (36NN - where NN is the instance number).
    In your services file, if you made the entry at the end of the file, press Enter (Return) after your entry.
    Try restarting your server after making the above changes.
