Trigger Process Chain Fails

Hi All,
We have a BI 3.5 System.We use the Maestro Background Job utility to fire background jobs in the SAP system including the process chain.
Of late, we have been experiencing problems wherein the process chain is not triggered automatically from the maestro application as scheduled.
It fails with the following error log in maestro :
JOB : NWPAGENT#NWPDLYMASTERCHN.NWPSTARTCHANGE
= USER : master
= JCLFILE : / -job DAILY_MASTER_CHAIN -i pchain_ -c C

It dosen't throw any dump.In fact the BI_PROCESS_TRIGGER background job shows completed successfully in SM37.
Any help.
Thanks & Regards,
Navin

Navin,
this can have several issues. Please verify the r3user profile in your BI system, the r3user which is defined in the r3batch options file. The SAP user must have the profile S_BI-WHM_RFC assigned, additionally to the access right definition explained in the Tivoli Workload Scheduler for Applications users guide.
If this does not solve your problem, please contact IBM support and open a problem management report.
Kind regards

Using Alert Framework to send email notifications when Process Chain fails

Hi Everyone,
I've configured ALRTCATDEF in Solution Manager, selected the alerting option for Process Chains in - RSPC > Attributes > Alerting, but it looks like whenever any process chain fails, an email notification will be sent to the same recipients.
Is there anyway to have an ALRCATDEF - alert category for different process chains, so that different recipients receive notifications for different Process Chains.
Thanks,
Ken

Interesting....I was actually hoping for different recipients for different process chains.
E.g. for our
CRM process chain - Support Team 1
FI process chain - Support Team 2
and so on and so on.
I think the only way may be creating a custom process type and implementing a class for this process type that calls function SALRT_CREATE_API. Then adding this process type to the process chain, with a different variant for each.
However if anyone knows a way to do this in a SAP standard way using the Alert Framework, that would be great.
Cheers,
Ken

How to Trigger process chains??

hi all
How to Trigger process chains??
Can anybody step by steps??
thanks
Senthil

The background control options are available to directly schedule the start process. You can start the start process immediately , that is when activating the process chain, for a specified time, or after a particular event. When you activate the process chain, the start process is scheduled in the background as defined in your selections.
You can also trigger the start of a process chain via a meta chain. A meta chain is when a process chain, to which you set this start condition, is fixed to another process chain. The process chain is started directly by this meta chain.
When you start the start process via a meta chain, it is not scheduled after you activated the related process chain. The process is only started when the meta chain, to which it is linked, is running.
The remaining chain processes, that is the application processes and the collection processes, are scheduled to wait for an event.
The start process has the following special features:
Only the start process can be scheduled without a predecessor process.
The start process can not be a successor to another process.
Only one start process is allowed for each process chain.
One start process can only be used in an individual process chain

PI Interface Posting Files - Trigger Process Chain Issue

Dear Reader,
Situation -
We get multiple flat files from source system via PI interface. To process this in BW 7.0 side we have created the web service interface. In the function module we have written a code to trigger process chain, once a data is posted.
Issue -
As there are multiple files being posted, the PC runs on completion of the every single post, which is not desired. We need to run the process chain only once at the end of all the files being posted.
Notes -
1. Number of files keep varying.
2. Clubbing all the files in a single file and then posting it would cause performance issues.
Request your help in find a way like -
1. A file being posted of name, say 'START PC', which can be trapped in the funciton module and controll the PC call.
2. <any Other idea>

vinay gupta

Trigger process chains from UNIX

Hi,
I just wanted to know how can we trigger Process chains from UNIX Server.
Any pointers will be appreciated.
Thanks

I suggest to use the sapevt.exe.
With it you can trigger an event in the SAP system with the execution of a simple command file (.bat for ex.)
So the event will start the chain as you require.
You can find more info for sapevt in:

What will u do if process chain fails?

Hi gurus
What will u do if process chain fails?
Thank in advance?
Raju

Hi rajaiah
Firstly if a process chain fails, identify the process that has failed and on the context menu of the failed process you will get an option called display message where you can find the exact reason for the failure. A process chain can fail in many cases. So first try to find the error occured . For example if a process chain has failed due to invalid records then we have to edit the psa and reload the data from psa to data target (reconstruction). Based on the error message you need to take the necessary actions...
Hope this may help you.. please assign points if found helpful.

Harish.

Send sms when bi process chain failed

Hi SAP Gurus,
Is some one inform me how is it possible to send an SMS when a process chain failed ?
Is there a possibility to paramter something on the SAP BI system to execute this action ?
Thanks

Hi,
I dont think there is an SMS option . But an email can be send when a Process chain gets failed. The detail step for this is
1. go to ALRTCATDEF
2. select classification "Process Chains"
3. click on display/change
4. double-click on "error in a process of a process chain"
5. click on "fixed recipients"
6. write in your username (you have to maintain your e-mail address in SU01 for that to work)
7. save
8. In RSPC, take the required process chain
9. go into edit mode
10. from the menu, select Process chain -> attributes -> alerting
11. check "send alerts if errors occur"

Hi Venkatesh,
thank you, i have resolved this issue.

Process chain failed at AND process type ?

hi all .
Process chain failed at AND process type ?
and it is giving message Job cancelled after system exception ERROR_MESSAGE .
what is the reason & solution .
regards ,
srinivas ,

Hi,
That depends on the system behaviour... There is no issue in that... You can repeate the process.. If there is no repeat option available then you can on the detail view.. there is a chance that you will get a repeat option there.. If not then copy the chain.. remove the loaded process and add one starter chain an continue the chain in immediate mode...

Process chain failed on creating Indexes

Hello All,
Since a few days our process chains have failed because of an impossibility to create Indexes.
Job BI_PROCESS_INDEX can run for 3 days without any result. Usually it runs during 4 seconds.
When we stop this job, the next day the process chain fails to delete indexes.
If we run RSRV for our infocube we get the following error :
ORACLE: The status of index /BI0/E0PA_C01~040 is INVALID
Our DBA says it's a BW issue.
Any idea to solve this issue ?
Thanks &
Regards
Catherine

If we run RSRV for our infocube we get the following error :
ORACLE: The status of index /BI0/E0PA_C01~040 is INVALID
I hope u followed the below to check cube.
RSRV -> Tests in Transaction RSRV -> All Elementary Tests -> Database -> Database Statistics for an InfoCube and its Aggregates
In that case, did u execute "Correct Error" (button in toolbar) to fix that error ?
If that does not fix the issue,
cannot u delete (button in toolbar) and reschedule Process chain (delete index -> DTP load to Cube -> create index) to create index ??
