Former Member — Thu, 08 Aug 2013 07:18:21 GMT

Hi All,

I am using Solaris operating system, I tried to check work process from O/S level by "dpmon pf=<SID>_DVBMGS<instance no>_server " so its working fine in my quality and dev system, but when i am trying same steps in my PRD ,so it is not working with the below error

bash-3.00$ dpmon pf=IEP_DVEBMGS01_ITZECCAP

dpmon=>sapparam(2): fopenU("IEP_DVEBMGS01_ITZECCAP","r"): No such file or directory

dpmon=>No Profile used.

dpmon=>sapparam: SAPSYSTEMNAME neither in Profile nor in Commandline

DpMonInit failed - possibly no dispatcher running

DpMon: External/Internal dplib version: 110/247"

My PRD is on cluster, in this we have 3 application,

Please guide me how can i proceed the action in PRD.

Thanks and Regards,

Aziz.

Hi Aziz

i believe there is a lack of authorisation, can you go in your profile directory and run a ls -latr ?

Let me know

cheers

Hi Faizan,

Can you please try and execute 'dpmon pf=/sapmnt/SID/profile/DEFAULT.PFL' and let me know the results, as it just seems that you need to add SAPSYSTEMNAME parameter to the instance profile

Best Regards

Marius

HI andrea,

which directory u mean to give permission is,

-rw-r----- 1 iepadm sapsys 144 Jun 29 2009 .profile.1

-rw-r--r-- 1 iepadm sapsys 174 Jun 29 2009 local.profile

/usr/sap/IEP/SYS/profile

Hi Aziz

what happend when you do a check on the profile ?

sappfpar check pf=IEP_DVEBMGS01_ITZECCAP

did you also try just adding SAPSYSTEMNAME=IEP to the instance profile ?

Re: How to see sap work process from linux

Former Member — Thu, 08 Aug 2013 09:29:35 GMT

Hi Aziz

i am a bit confused. You run the command dpmon pf=<SID>_DVBMGS<instance no>_server where the profile is IEP_DVEBMGS01_ITZECCAP ? but the list you pasted doesn't show any profiles at all ...

One step back, can you run this find /usr/sap/IEP -name IEP_DVEBMGS01_ITZECCAP

in case it return something then launch dpmon pf=result_of_previous_search (and bear in mind that iepadm should have -rw against this file)

in case it doesnt i believe you have to retrieve the profile of your instance first

Let me know if you need further details

Hi Marius,

In my instance profile the sapsystemame=IEP already exist .

but,

when i hit command "sappfpar check pf=IEP_DVEBMGS01_ITZECCAP" the screen comes as below,

sappfpar check pf=IEP_DVEBMGS01_ITZECCAP

sappfpar=>sapparam(2): fopenU("IEP_DVEBMGS01_ITZECCAP","r"): No such file or directory

sappfpar=>No Profile used.

sappfpar=>sapparam: SAPSYSTEMNAME neither in Profile nor in Commandline

Re: How to see sap work process from linux

former_member206552 — Thu, 08 Aug 2013 10:44:18 GMT

HI Faizan

can you please go the the profile directory and check the permissions as suggested by Andrea,

ls -l /sapmnt/IEP/profile

and paste the results

Best Regards

Marius

Re: How to see sap work process from linux

Former Member — Thu, 08 Aug 2013 10:47:19 GMT

Hi Faizan,

In your profile directory if you run command ls -ltr what is the output you see?

is this all you see:

-rw-r----- 1 iepadm sapsys 144 Jun 29 2009 .profile.1

-rw-r--r-- 1 iepadm sapsys 174 Jun 29 2009 local.profile

If this is your complete output you are in the incorrect directory, usually as marius has stated:

It would be located in the directory

/usr/sap/SID/SYS/profile

So in your case go cd /usr/sap/IEP/SYS/profile

then do ls -ltr and give us output please.

Regards,

Johan

Aziz,

I'm here to help and we'll fix this.

Yes, probably this difference is because of cluster config. did you try the find command?

In same way your instance are up&running (hopefully) so probably the profile is somewhere somohow, you have just to find it and the everything will be clear and smooth

let me know

Re: How to see sap work process from linux

former_member206552 — Thu, 08 Aug 2013 11:04:54 GMT

I'm trying to figure out why when you run

bash-3.00$ dpmon pf=IEP_DVEBMGS01_ITZECCAP

it searches for it under /sapmnt/IEP/DVEBMGS01/DEFAULT.PFL

fopenU("/sapmnt/IEP/DVEBMGS01/DEFAULT.PFL","r"):

But ok, can you get some one to double chekc the cluster and also make sure that the user IEPADM is part of the correct groups ?

also can you try and run the dpmon command from a CSHELL

just type 'csh'

and try and execute the command again

Re: How to see sap work process from linux

Former Member — Thu, 08 Aug 2013 11:12:12 GMT

Hi Faizan,

It seems that the profile-directory is not correctly being shared between your SAP-servers on PRD-cluster. Or the environment is not correctly set on those servers.

Try this command on those PRD-servers, and compare with DEV & QAS for example: cdpro --> it should bring you directly to the profile-directory.

Alternatively, you should try to start dpmon with pf=/usr/sap/IEP/SYS/profile/your-instance-profile (full directory).

I hope this will help you.

Regards,

Andre

Andre,

I have been run command "cdpro", but it is giving error

"bash: cdpro: command not found "

i am also thought about some cluster issue may have there ... but i dnt have any idea about how to check the profile directory sheared in cluster or not and all,

please do the need full ..

Aziz.

Hello

dpmon=>sapparam(2): fopenU("IEP_DVEBMGS01_ITZECCAP","r"): No such file or directory

So it is evident that the profile is not available in the directory you are calling from.

Provide the output after executing the below commands

ps -ef | grep ms.sap

su - iepadm

cdpro

pwd

ls -la

Hi Faizan,

Mr. Wahudi makes a very good point.

Do df -h on your working and non working system.

Do comparison, if your profile dir is not mounted on prod you may have to contact linux team to add it.

Johan
