Summary

The new Change Analysis (ABAP) is a tool to identify different kind of changes implemented in an SAP System – NetWeaver based, ABAP – during a given timeframe. The tool is released within transaction ST13 under Backoffice Tools for use by SAP or certified Service consultants and is only available in English.

Transaction ST13 and its toolset are delivered in Add-on ST-A/PI "Service Tools for Applications Plug-In" and the new Change Analysis (ABAP) tool will be available from ST-A/PI Release 01S*.

 

The objective of the document is to give information on how to use the Change Analysis (ABAP) tool. Official information can be reviewed in the Knowledge Based Article 2223746 - Backoffice Tools - Change Analysis (ABAP) in ST13.

 

Prerequisites & Limits

The new toolset Backoffice tools in ST13 which includes the Change Analysis (ABAP) tool will be available with the Add-on ST-A/PI Release 01S*. Please refer to SAP Note 69455 - Servicetools for Applications ST-A/PI (ST14, RTCCTOOL, ST12) for further information on how to install the Add-on.

In general a support user with minimal authorizations is needed to run the tool (refer to SAP Note 1405975 - Minimum Authorization Profile for Remote Service Delivery for necessary authorizations).

 

IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR THE EXECUTION OF THE TOOL:

According the selected timeframe the performance of the tool can increase significantly. Please choose proper selection criteria to restrict the result set to a minimum – normally < 7 days should be sufficient. In maximum you can select a timeframe of 30 days only.

 

Introduction

With the Change Analysis (ABAP) tool it is possible to identify:

- Start time & date of Active Hosts

- OS/DB/SAP Parameter Changes

- Transport Requests

- Imported from other System

- Transport Requests

- Created in current System

- Change time & -date of Specific Program/Function Group/Class

 

In the following section a detailed description is provided on how to access and make use of the tool:

1. Logon to the SAP System with your support user and run transaction ST13.

2. Choose tool “BACKOFFICE_TOOLS” and press the execute button.

3. On the following screen mark “Change Analysis (ABAP)” and Execute (F8). Then the selection screen of the tool will open up.

1.png

4. On the selection screen you have five different kind of options to select which changes should be identified. Please mark the once you need.

a. Start time & date of Active Hosts

This option will be selected all the time as it identifies on which Hosts the System is currently running and when they have been started up (date & time).

2.png

b. OS/DB/SAP Parameter Changes

This option can be selected to identify Parameter Changes mainly on SAP level during a specific timeframe. For OS and DB also other vendor specific tools should be considered as the Change Analysis (ABAP) won’t be single source of truth.

3.png

Please note:

- The maximal selectable timeframe is 30 days. The performance can increase significantly if no proper timeframe is chosen.

- The Job SAP COLLECTOR FOR PERFMONITOR and/or Report RSORA110 has to run to collect the newest parameter changes. Only after a successful run the changes will be visible. Further details can be found in SAP Note 1733253 - CCMS: Monitoring of parameter changes in SAP system.

 

c. Transport Requests - Imported from other System

This option can be selected to identify which Transport Requests have been imported from another System (e.g. DEV/QA) during a specific timeframe. As an additional option the development package can be specified to restrict the result set.

4.png

Please note: The maximal selectable timeframe is 30 days. The performance can increase significantly if no proper timeframe is chosen.

 

d. Transport Requests - Created in current System

This option can be selected to identify which Transport Requests have been created in the concurrent System – changes that have been implemented directly in the System - during a specific timeframe.

5.png

Please note: The maximal selectable timeframe is 30 days. The performance can increase significantly if no proper timeframe is chosen.

 

e. Specific Program/Function Group/Class

This option can be selected to identify the change date, time and user of the specific Program/Function Group/Class.

6.png

Please note: This check only makes sense if you have already identified a specific Program/Function Group/Class to be the cause of an issue and just want to reconfirm when it was changes and who changed it.

 

5. After you finished your selection press the button “Execute” to get the results of the change analysis.

6. For each option you selected a single Tab will be visible on the result screen.

a. Start time & date of Active Hosts

7.png

The result of this check shows all currently active Hosts of the SAP System with the associated IP address and start date and start time.

 

b. OS/DB/SAP Parameter Changes

8.png

The result of this check shows which kind of parameter was changes (OS, DB or SAP), on which host it was changes, when it was changed, the parameter name and only the new parameter value.

 

c. Transport Requests - Imported from other System

The result of this check shows all Transport Requests transported from another system (e.g. Development/Quality) into the current system with Transport Request ID and information on the changed object (type & name), who changed it, change date and time, client and also the short description of the transport request.

 

d. Transport Requests - Created in current System

9.png

The result of this check shows all Transport Requests directly created in the current system with TR ID and information on the changed object (type & name), who changed it, change date and time, client and also the short description of the transport request.

 

e. Specific Program/Function Group/Class

10.png

The result of this check shows the information who changed the Program/Function Group/Class and when it was changed.

Art of trobleshooting for a Basis Consultant :)

$
0
0

I started my career with SAP Basis and now after completing more than 5 years i really enjoy working as a Basis Consultant .The most important aspect for SAP Basis is troubleshooting when an issue occur .Here are some of the points and observation I want to document which can be helpful for a new resource in this practice.Any thing that occur has a logical reasoning nothing happens on own.So when an issue occurs we need to find what has changed whether there i a transport or any activity that has messed up.We have to not to be stubborn in our thinking for fixing an issue .We have to see over all perspective of an issue and to start troubleshooting from Scratch .

 

Also i think we should not trust on any one and double check every logs ,connection ,user ids and basic things.At some time in my career i have observed issue at a very ground level and wasting my time for more than 3-4 days.So initially we have to check and start from Basic level.We need to confirm from our level every thing rather than relying on others.Our motive should be positive and seeing from every perspective.

 

Issue can be at any level :-

Database

Os Level

Appliation Level

Network level

 

If we see any recent activity on these level then we can check logs at these first.

 

 

Also the important point is we have to be positive, energetic and never give up attitude while fixing an issue .At times in SAP Market i see people like only installing a SAP System like a binary software .But our profile is to Maintain SAP and keep it up and running 24*7.

Domain Name Change for SAP system

$
0
0

The aim of this document is to perform the following set of activities for the domain name to be changed from one domain to another domain which has been used during the time of installation in Windows environment.

 

1. Ensure that Services on Windows box are stopped

 

All the services related to Windows need to be stopped before that SAP system needs to be brought down for performing the changes.

 

2. Default Profile to be changed

 

The parameter SAPFQDN needs to be changed from old domain name to new domain name and a restart of the SAP system needs to be performed prior to the change to the profile.

 

Old Profile:

 

 

New Profile:

 

 

3. Host file entries

 

If the application servers are installed on Windows boxes, the host file entries need to be changed to from old domain name to new domain name.

 

For example, the old domain name is xxx.com and the new domain name is yyy.com. The host file entries look like below:

 

10.x.x.x abcde.xxx.com -- existing entry

 

10.x.x.x abcde.yyy.com -- replace the existing entry

 

 

4. Change to Registry setting on Windows

 

The entry BackConnectionHostnames need to be added to the registry. The value is a multi string value which will have the new domain name details with the computer name and this needs to be added at the location HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa\MSV1_0.



5. Reboot of Windows box


After all the required changes are performed on the Windows box a reboot of the complete box needs to be performed so that the changes take affect. Ensure that the services and SAP system are running successfully after the reboot.


6. Check the SAP Gateway Service


The SAP gateway service needs to be verified in transaction SMGW and ensure that the other systems are able to connect to the system.


 

7. TCP/IP Connections Check

 

All the RFC connections of type TCP/IP need to be verified to ensure that the gateway details defined in the RFC destination points to the changed domain name rather than the existing domain name.

 

 

8. System Landscape Configuration

 

The SLD Configuration in transactions SLDAPICUST and RZ70. They need to be changed accordingly so that the new domain name changed system talks to the Central SLD system.

 

 

 

 

9. Adobe Document Configuration

 

The RFC destination ADS of type 'G' needs to be changed accordingly and the program FP_TEST_00 needs to be executed in transaction SE38 to ensure the adobe document generation.

 

 

 

 

10. Database Connectivity

 

With the newer versions of SAP, there is a possibility of application server installed on Windows to communicate with database in a different Operating system which is on a different domain name due to the Secure Storage in File system (SSFS) concept.

 

 

All the above tests confirm that the domain name change has been successful.

Upgrade Process:

 

As mentioned in previous document , TREX version can be updated till 7.10 PL 57 via sapinst available under TREX UPDATE SAR file [format: TREX71_<version>-<*>.SAR >]. However from TREX 7.10 PL 58 onwards, SWPM (SWPM)needs to be used for TREX version update. Exceptionally , in some scenarios, shell scripts also requires to be used for TREX update, which will be shown in lateral part of this document.

 

Process 1 : Along with SWPM -

 

1. Download SWPM from below location :

 

https://service.sap.com/sltoolset (Need authorized S user ID)

>  SL ToolSet > Software Logistics Toolset 1.0

>  System Provisioning

>  Download Tool

>  Support Packages Patches

>  Select OS

>  SWPM10SP<*> 7<*>.SAR

 

 

2. Extract both the SWPM & TREX UPDATE SAR files and keep it in a separate location.

 

3. Execute SWPM with ROOT user and select "UPDATE - TREX System" as shown in below screen shot :

5.  Then provide residual inputs in following screens till EXECUTION phase. Once completed, check the TREX updated version in TREXADMIN (either via TREXADMIN transaction or else via TREXAdmin.sh script. If it gets updated then well and good or else follow Process - 2 .

 

Process 2 : Along with shell script -

 

1.  Navigate to TREX SAR file  extracted directory and then from tx_trex_content/TX<OS>/ execute following command via ROOT user :

 

./install.sh --action=update --sid=<TREX SID> --password=<password of TREX_SID_ADM user> --restart

 

At the end it should SUCCESSFUL as follows for successfull completion of TREX update :

Spool request cannot be transported from one system to another.

 

Reasons are listed as below:

 

- There might already be a request with the same number in the target system that would be overwritten.

- There will be various problems if the following attributes do not exist (or are different) in the target system:

 

  • codepage
  • format
  • UPE settings

       For SAPscript and Smartforms requests, there are even more restrictions

Setting up SMS/Email Alerts in SUM Tool in MS WINDOW

 

Steps below is Showing you how to configure SMS and Email ALERT in SUM tool.

Once it is configured, SUM will send a email/SMS to the configured email ID and SMS when the SUM tool is waiting for user input.

 

Pre-requisites:



Steps:


1. Create VB script (Alert.vbs) and place it in a location that can be accessed by SUM

Set objMail = CreateObject("CDO.Message")

Set objConf = CreateObject("CDO.Configuration")

Set objFlds = objConf.Fields

objFlds.Item("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/sendusing") = 2 'cdoSendUsingPort

objFlds.Item("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpserver") = "Your SMTP Server" 'your smtp server domain or IP address goes here

objFlds.Item("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpserverport") = 25 'default port for email

'uncomment next three lines if you need to use SMTP Authorization

'objFlds.Item("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/sendusername") = "your-username"

'objFlds.Item("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/sendpassword") = "your-password"

'objFlds.Item("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpauthenticate") = 1 'cdoBasic

objFlds.Update

objMail.Configuration = objConf

objMail.From = "email From "

objMail.To = "exampleemail@servername.com, examplephone@servername.com"

objMail.Subject = "SUM is Waiting for User Input"

objMail.TextBody = "Please Check SUM"

objMail.Send

Set objFlds = Nothing

Set objConf = Nothing

Set objMail = Nothing

 

Note: Save this file with file extension .VBS

 

2. Create the BAT (SendAlert.bat) file and place it in a location that can be accessed by SUM

X:\usr\sap\SID\SUM\SUMalertscript\Alert.vbs


3. Test the script

- verify the script can run without errors

- ensure you receive the email/SMS when you execute the script

 

4. Configuration in SUM tool (screen shot attached)

4.1. Launch SUM tool

4.2. select SUM tool ==> Select Alert ==> Alert Info

4.3. For "Program" select the script that you created SendAlert.bat

4.4. Leave "Alert File" default value or You can create file as you want with text in it

4.5. Set "Alert Delay" (default 500s)

4.6. Test the alert mechanism works by clicking the "Test" button

     - clicking the test button will call the script you prepared in step 1

     - so this should trigger an email alert

4.7. Ensure the "Set Active" check-box is checked

4.8. Press OK

Dear All,

 

I am herewith explaining the step by step way out for updating TREX server, which is very much required now in days in order to incorporate with dependent peripheral SAP SW Components . I am trying to architect the procedure based on one of my recent activity which includes following scenario :-

 

1. Old TREX Server : 7.10 SP40

2. Update Level : 7.10 SP55 (latest one)

3. OS: Windows 2008 (64 bit)

4. Number of connected SAP system RFCs : 3

 

Step 1: Check  the current version of TREX in connected SAP system though TREXADMIN T-Code.

Step 2: Download the latest patch level from SMP . Follow https://service.sap.com/swdc  >  Support Packages and Patches> Browse our Download Catalog> SAP NetWeaver and complementary products> SAP Netweaver > SAP NETWEAVER 7.0> Entry By Components > Search & Classification (TREX) > TREX 7.10 > Windows on X64 64 bit > TREX71_55-10004511.SAR

 

Step 3: Then extract it with SAPCAR with following command:-

sapcar -xvf <file name.SAR>

 

Step 4: Stop TREX service and also the Trex Admin console (if running somewhere).

 

Step 5: Execute SAPinst from the extracted directory :-

Step 6 :Choose "Update a TREX system" option :-

Step By Step Process to Update TREX Server

$

Dear All,

 

I am herewith explaining the step by step way out for updating TREX server, which is very much required now in days in order to incorporate with dependent peripheral SAP SW Components . I am trying to architect the procedure based on one of my recent activity which includes following scenario :-

 

1. Old TREX Server : 7.10 SP40

2. Update Level : 7.10 SP55 (latest one)

3. OS: Windows 2008 (64 bit)

4. Number of connected SAP system RFCs : 3

 

Step 1: Check  the current version of TREX in connected SAP system though TREXADMIN T-Code.

Step 2: Download the latest patch level from SMP . Follow https://service.sap.com/swdc  >  Support Packages and Patches> Browse our Download Catalog> SAP NetWeaver and complementary products> SAP Netweaver > SAP NETWEAVER 7.0> Entry By Components > Search & Classification (TREX) > TREX 7.10 > Windows on X64 64 bit > TREX71_55-10004511.SAR

 

Step 3: Then extract it with SAPCAR with following command:-

sapcar -xvf <file name.SAR>

 

Step 4: Stop TREX service and also the Trex Admin console (if running somewhere).

 

Step 5: Execute SAPinst from the extracted directory :-

Step 6 :Choose "Update a TREX system" option :-

You can take restart of TREX server manually later on though MMC.

Step 7: Restart the TREX server through MMC and then you can check the latest version again in TREXADMIN.

NB: TREX Upgrade process from 7.1- PL 58 onwards, you can follow updated document - http://scn.sap.com/docs/DOC-69966
