Hi there

An key user expressed this wish. I guess in there she wants to see files

Dear Jan,

Since the path reside in the application server, the user should not be able to view/access it directly unless there is a particular purpose.

Hello,

With the FILE Tcode you will create the Logical path and Physical path in the AL11 tcode so better you try wile FILE Tcode.

Hi,

To add a new directory in AL11, guess what, you have to use AL11 !

Suppose your servers use Windows and you have defined a directory for output files on the central instance server which can be accessed from any server (CI and DI) as
CIserver\Share

Launch AL11

Click on the "Configure Button".

Enter :

Directory Name :
CIserver\Share

Param. name : DIR_Share (the logical name you choose)

ServerName : all

Press the "Create" button.

And voila, you can use your new directory from AL11 !

Hi,

is almost correct:

Launch AL11

Click on the "Configure Button".

Press the "Create" button.

Enter :

Directory Name :
CIserver\Share

Param. name : DIR_Share (the logical name you choose)

ServerName : all

Press the "Save" button.

You will get the green message. Created successfully.

Hi jan Bo ,

Once you give your inputs like for directry name, alias name and server name insted of selecting add, you first save the settings and then say add.... make sure that you have given the sernane same as how it looks in SM51 (Ex: hostname_sid_inst#) now go back and see the diffarence....Hope it will rid form your problem.

Hi guys,

I can create a directory like "DIR_MINE", "/usr/sap/<sid_id>/DVEBMGS04/work", and the server name on SM51 without using parameters in tcode FILE.

So how does tcode: AL11 and tcode: FILE relate?

Thanks, Mike

Hi.. if no configure button in AL11 tcode. what should i do to make it appear?

 I wander how to add an pat to al11.

If you want to add a path in AL11, you will need to explicitly include in the profile parameter though rz10. For example, the paths which you can see in AL11 can be displayed in rz11 too. But i wonder why you need to add another path in AL11.

Hope this helps..

Cheers,
