AREP package in SGeSAP

Voldoo — Thu, 06 Nov 2008 17:03:09 GMT

Hi all

We are currently implementing SGeSAP on Linux plateform
We have created a package dbcijciE90 which start correctly ASCS00 + SCS01 + DB Oracle and then all the application servers (D10,D20 D30 and D40)
This package is working fine everything is coming up correctly.

The package has a sap configuration file sap.config

But we must implement AREP (Abap replication enqueue), functionality provided by HP SG; For this apparently we must create a dedicated package which start the AREP (package created arepE90).

The problem we encounter is the following.

When the package arepE90 starts , it takes in account its own sap config file saparep.config + sap.config file (config file of the main package), so it stop all the landscape before starting is and then doing its own job (just to start arep process)

Do you how to avoid this.

Many thanks for your help

Shalom,

This question is way to complex to answer properly without more information.

AT the very least, I'd need to see the error or start up logs.

More than likely there is a problem in the SG package script. Logs are where I would look to begin diagnosis.

At the very least it seems yo have a typo in arepE90.cntl.

You have:
# ADD customer defined halt commands.
: # do nothing instruction, because a function must contain some command.

test_return 52
. /usr/local/cmcluster/conf/E90/sapwas.sh stop E90

The test_return should be after the stop command.

If this is not your problem it will cause problems later.

Hi all

I have solved my issue after reading again the documentation and especially this section

Configuration of Application Server Handling
â ¢ If a sap.config file exist, it will overrule previous files and is effective.
â ¢ If a sap.config file exist, it will overrule previous files and is effective.

So the only thing I have done is to add AS treatment in saparepE90.config
And I have set the value ASTREAT=0 ( Do nothing) .... And it apparently it works fine :-))

In the second sap.config add the treatement of the application serveur.
Parameter ASTREAT needs to be set to 0 (nothing to do)

This section will overrull the configuration of the main sap configuration file (sap.config or sap.conf)
