How to see sap work process from linux

[Former Member]

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 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

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 ?

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

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

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
