TemplateConfigTool vs. Recommended Parameters

Hello,
We have implemented a NW '04 SPS15 landscape and used the Template Configuration Tool to apply the appropriate settings on the J2EE. Just before the Go-Live checks I noticed that the Dispatcher and Server, Manager ==> ThreadManager settings are not what are recommended in the presentation "Fine Tune the Performance of your SAP Portal".
For example,
The presentation shows that the ThreadManager should be:
InitialThreadCount = 100
MaxThreadCount = 200
MinThreadCount = 100
Although the base installation parameters were slightly different from that of the presentations listed "defaults", I now question the changes that were implemented when we ran the Template Configuration Tool with the Portal.zip configuration file...
I have adjusted the ThreadManager settings to that of the recommended values in the presentation but I am not sure if:
a) I should keep those settings or are they specificly set by the Tool?
b) I should review the old tuning documentation and check to see what is recommended vs. current
I cannot find other documentation on the tuning parameter requirements for J2EE running a portal. Maybe I am missing something? I was depending on the Tool for the recommended parameters.
Any suggestions or ideas are welcomed.
Judson

Hi Paul,
I will issue points but I want you to know that there are many differences in the configuration applied byt he Template Configuration Tool that are not recommended by SAP for a go-live check. I am not sure if it's the "check" process/software or the Portal.ZIP file for the Template Config Tool - but they are not in-synch.
Mind you - they are not that far out - but again, this is a tool that one would eventually "trust" as the ZIP files are expected to be up-to-date with the best performance parameters... (I guess).
But thanks very much anyway,
An example is that the ThreadManager settings (min/max/change) are set to 40 using the Tool, 100/200/100 (respectively) for the tuning presentation and finally, 20/20/20 for the go-live check... (confusing but implemented)
Kind regards,
Judson

Recommendation parameters 10g

Hi people,
I´m checking the parameters of the note 830576 - Parameter recommendations for Oracle 10g over my fresh installed sap system, but i´ve the next doubt about the value of one parameter.
The note says this:
The parameter EVENT is recommended with the value "10027 trace name context forever, level 1"
I´ve executed the select from note 1171650 and i get this value
NAME
event (10027)
RECOMMENDATION
add with value "10027 trace name context forever, level 1"
REMARK
avoid process state dump at deadlock
SET
N
IS_VALUE
empty--> this field appears empty
SHOULD_BE_VALUE
10027 trace name context forever, level 1
The string "10027 trace name context forever, level 1"      will be appear in the field IS_VALUE? Or the parameter is corrected implememented?
More thanks

Just to add -
We don't have to add only this single line value '10027 trace name context forever, level 1' to the parameter EVENT.
There are multiple sting values to be assigned. as specified in note as well, for e.g.
event='10027 trace name context forever, level 1','10028 trace name context forever, level 1','10162 trace name context forever, level 1','10191 trace name context forever, level 1','38043 trace name context forever, level 1','38068 trace name context forever, level 100'
But when you are really going to modify the parameter EVENT, then you have consider the specific format there in command line, we faced some problems when did for the first time.
Thanks

Maintain Server parameters to allow huge file size to pass through XI

Hello SAP Gurus,
i would like to know how can i check this Server parameters in SAP PI Configuration :
u2022 UME Parameters : To look into the pool size and poolmax wait parameters - UME recommended parameters (like: poolmaxsize=50, poolmaxwait=60000)
u2022 Tuning Parameters: To look/define the Message Size Limit u201Clike: EO_MSG_SIZE_LIMIT = 0000100u201D under tuning category
u2022 ICM Parameters: To consider ICM parameters (ex: icm/conn_timeout = 900000. icm/HTTP/max_request_size_KB = 2097152)
This is required for allowing huge file size to pass through XI.
Regards,
Ravi

Hi Michael,
I did the settings you just mentioned in the link.
I got through the First step where the file got processed and 50000 record data got divided into on 50000 idocs.
But when its is posting this in BW system, then the outbound status of the message is " Message has error status on outbound side"
And when i see BW there are no idocs in that system. Is it that the RFC connection between XI and BW had timed out and so it did not got processed at outbound side. Or there is some other setting required ?
Also, when we tried it with 20 K file then the outbound status is also successful.
Please let me know how to resolve this issue .

Ravi

Hello Kumar,
The following should be the recommended parameters for your case. Always take a backup of initSID.ora and spfileSID.ora file before making the changes.
fixcontrol Bug fix control parameter
*._fix_control='5705630:ON','5765456:3','6221403:ON','6329318:ON','6399597:ON','6430500:ON','6440977:ON','6626018:ON','6670551:ON','6972291:ON','7325597:ON','7692248:ON','7891471:ON'

Resize db_cache depending on your needs. For your case, I would recommend at least 2GB of RAM for db_cache
pushjoin_union_view
pushjoin_union_view = false
Set this as true if 6917874 fix is implemented.
In addition Oracle processes should be calculated as follows
Oracle Processes =
{ ABAP WP X 2 +
J2ee Server Processes*MaxConnection + Parallel_Max_Servers   + 40 }
Hope I am clear.

Kernell parameters of Java stack

Hi,
I´ve installed an abap and java stacks. In the post-installation guide, explains that we should change some kernell parameters (146289 and 835474), but this steps I´ve done in the abap stack but in the java stack i don´t know how to check the parameters.
How can i do this?
Or in the kernell config of java stack is the step JVM Settings?
More thanks

Hi,
With the Java system you don't have to worry about kernel parameters, the jvm parameters are important though and note 723909 is valid for your system as mentioned earlier. These parameters get set at installation, its worth just double checking them via the configtool (particulary the memory parameters). Note 723909 covers sun/oracle and HP-UX jvms, if you use an IBM jdk note 1024539 has the recommended parameters.
Kind regards,
Cathal

Handling xml message of size more than 100mb in SAP PI 7.1

Dear Experts,
Is it possible for PI to pick-up and process a XML message of size more than 100 MB in PI 7.1 EHP-1?
If yes, can you please let me know how to handle it?
Thank you.

Hi Saravana,
it is not a best practice to more than 100mb..
you can increase below parameters and so that you would be able to process for the best..
u2022     UME Parameters : May be we need to look into the pool size and poolmax wait parameters - UME recommended parameters (like: poolmaxsize=50, poolmaxwait=60000)
u2022     Tuning Parameters: May be we need to look/define the Message Size Limit u201Clike: EO_MSG_SIZE_LIMIT = 0000100u201D under tuning category
u2022     ICM Parameters: May be we need to consider ICM parameters (ex: icm/conn_timeout = 900000. icm/HTTP/max_request_size_KB = 2097152)
Thanks and Regards,

Process flow execute "complete" in Runtime Audit Browser but it hangs

I create a process flow that contain 4 sub-process flow, each sub-process flow contains several mapping. Each mapping in the process flow will be executed one by one if previous mapping execute successfully. If any error or warning, it will be ended with "End_Error" or "End_Warning". And I deploy the process flow to the workflow server successfully.
Sometimes the process will hang in some certain mapping when execute the process flow. After long time waiting, the status of process flow execution in Audit Browser will be "Complete", but in fact, the sub-porcess ended with that mapping and the next mappings will not be execute. This can be monitored in the Audit browser, as if the whole process "break" at that mapping.
In workflow monitor, I found the workflow has not complete yet. The status of that mapping node is "Notified", not "complete". So I have to abort the workflow in the monitor.
Sometimes when I try again it will be ok. If I deploy the process to another instance that in dw instance, it will also be ok. The dw instance use owb recommend parameters when we install db instance. All the mapping use the default parameters except "Default operation mode", here we use "row based".
Can somebody give me some hint?
Thanks.
OWB 10g rel 1, db: 10g rel2, workflow: 2.6.4

Hi Naidu
Yes you are absolutely right. When you press the cancel button in the GUI, the runtime repository does not get the signal that he is been asked to stop and abort. The GUI cancels himself but the background oracle process is still on !!!. The only way to do is to kill the oracle session. Another way I tried to tackle is
go to the directiry OWB/10.1/owb/rtp/sql and run the file @list_request.sql in sqlplus. Note that you have to login as runtime repositiry owner. After you get the audit id, run the file abort_exec_request.sql and supply the audit id that you obtained by running list_requests.sql. Sometimes it does not work also . Hence the best method is to kill the process

File adapter and large file

hi experts, i have a problem:
i have configured sender file adapter to send 4mb file from FTP server, so when i upload file to FTP, file adapter don't upload it, file just stay in folder.
I have tried to upload small file, is about 16kb, so it works fine, without any errors
I checked communication channel log in RWB, there are not any errors, all leds are green.
So i don't know how to upload 4mb file, also i checked all rights and permissions for file and user, they all have admin rights - "777".
Can anybody give me some suggestion or solution?
Thanks all for reply.

Hi,
Try to increase your server parameters as below and try ....then you would be able to process large data
u2022     UME Parameters : May be we need to look into the pool size and poolmax wait parameters - UME recommended parameters (like: poolmaxsize=50, poolmaxwait=60000)
u2022     Tuning Parameters: May be we need to look/define the Message Size Limit u201Clike: EO_MSG_SIZE_LIMIT = 0000100u201D under tuning category

How much volume of data (Flat file) XI 3.0 can handle?

Hi Experts,
I am using XI 3.0 system,
my scenario is (BW)File->XI--->File(Third Party)
So there is a huge amount data, it has about more than 500MB file.
what would be the best size , if we divide the file into chunks and process them in XI 3.0?
can i divide into 50MB files a each and then process it?
can any one suggest me what would be be the best size to divide it into multiple files.
from the performance point of view.
Thanks
Sai

SAI,
yesss....You need to check the tuning parameters with your basis team..
Check below parameters:
u2022                     UME Parameters : May be we need to look into the pool size and poolmax wait parameters - UME recommended parameters (like: poolmaxsize=50, poolmaxwait=60000)
u2022     Tuning Parameters: May be we need to look/define the Message Size Limit u201Clike: EO_MSG_SIZE_LIMIT = 0000100u201D under tuning category
u2022     ICM Parameters: May be we need to consider ICM parameters (ex: icm/conn_timeout = 900000. icm/HTTP/max_request_size_KB = 2097152)
if this is the case you would be able to process 20 MB file easily

CLM - Maximum File Size for Contract Documents

We did a search but did not find an answer for this. For the CLM system does anybody know SAP's recommendation on the maximum file size that the application can reliably handle for contract documents? We recently increased the maximum file size from 10MB to 50MB to accommodate a larger than allowed file size. Now the business has requested the capacity to add files (pdf files) up to 115MB. Would increasing our file limit to approximately 150MB be within the recommended parameters?

There is no specific recommendation for maximum file sizes as this depends on how your time-out parameters are set, your server resources and network (also tunneling policies). The fact is the higher the filesize the more risk you run in unreliable uploads. Compressing files before uploading is a good practise for larger files.
These are the same issues which you would run into if you for example upload to a sharepoint site or even a copy on a shared drive, it all depends on the same parameters.
Tunneling policies could also affect your performance as it will limit the upload speeds according the priority set on certain network activities and if it limits your bandwidth you run in the risk of time-out so as you see there is no straight answer to your question. I know customers who can without no problem upload 150Mb files and others who already have issues with 50Mb.
Unfortunate, as I do not know your architecture and infrastructure I can only advice to stresstest the conditions of 150 Mb uploades with several user ids and see if you get time-outs or if it degrades the network performance. One of the questions you should ask your business is how frequent are the occurences of 150Mb+ uploads and if it is the appropiate way. It could be that these are very rare and in that case you could ask them to do this outside the busy hours of the network which will provides you less risk in problems.

Tape_copy_command

Hi,
We are using Netbackup for taking the backup.In the init<sid>.sap we are using tape_copy_command=cpio. Our os is Solaris. Please confirm whether we can take the backup using Netbackup with tape_copy_command=dd.
Regards
Mukunthan

In theory yes. Nothing indicates that it might not work. If I was you I would do a test run on a sandbox system.
Read the info available in help.sap.com and remember to keep an eye in the recommended parameters.

We have huge partitioned fact table with nearly 1 billion of data(15GB export dump) for range by month partition holding 24 months data. Any special recommendation you prefer for parameters (AWM etc.) ?
or else any recommendation to Create cube strategies ?
Also any recommandation on Cube partition and Database 11g paramater(int.ora) related changes for OLAP 11g cube ?
Thanks in advance,
Debashis

There are recommended parameters and recommended strategies in the Oracle documentation.
For starters, I recommend these guides:
VLDB and Partitioning Guide
Data Warehousing Guide
OLAP User's Guide
All of which can be found at:
