IMPORT FROM / EXPORT TO SHARED BUFFER - Problem with overwriting

[Former Member]

Hi experts,

I want to use the shared memory to store just one parameter and work with it.

The scenario is like this: In report A the parameter is written to shared memory using EXPORT TO SHARED BUFFER. Later another report (report B) also uses the EXPORT command in order to change the parameters value.

The problem is that it seems as if the second EXPORT command does not work properly. It seems as if sometimes overwriting of the parameter value takes place and sometimes not.

Does anyone has an idea why the EXPORT command do not always work?

Thanks for all answers in advance!

Best regards,

Hi Torben,

I am guessing you have multiple application servers in your environment.

Please read this thread and you can find a solution for this at the end.

Hi Shambu,

if I look into SM51 or SMMS there is just one application server the system runs on.

It must be something else.
