Startup Agent sapstartsrv timing out

[former_member790212]

Hi All,

We are not able to bring up Netweaver app server after we mounted the installation on our new server. Can you help me here in identifying the root cause ?

Here is the output we got when we troubleshoot

sapeis-dev-01:nsdadm 79> /usr/sap/NSD/SCS01/exe/sapcontrol -nr 01 -function WaitforServiceStarted 120 10

FAIL: Timeout
