Sum Tool

Knowing your current SAP R3
SPAM Level
Some friends ask me how to get information about support package level on their current SAP R/3
server. Actually it is very simple. Just follow this next step:
Type SPAM on your SAPGUI command screen.
You this SPAM screen. SPAM program also has its level. You can see it on the top of it. My current
SPAM version is 6.20 level 26.
To check other support package level, just press Package level button.
On the left side, you see support package component such as SAP_BASIS (SAP Basis
Component), SAP_ABA (Cross Application Component), SAP_APPL (Logistics and Accounting),
SAP_HR (Human Resources), etc.
For level package, just check level component. For example, SAP_BASIS has its level 64.
OK, thats all you need to know about your current support package level. On the next tutorial, Ill
guide you about how to increase your support package level.

What to do with SPDD and SPAU
Support pack upgrade prerequisites
How to uncar Support packs.
How to update SPAM in sap
Pre-requisites for Support Package :

Download support pack from SAP Service market Place
Uncar Support Packs .SAR Files SAP
Check enough space under /usr/sap/trans directory.
Installing the support package using transaction
SPAM
Log into SAP GUI, client 000 as user upgrade
Go to transaction SPAM
Step 1 : SPAM/SAINT Update:

A SPAM/SAINT Update contains updates Support Package Manager (SPAM) program as well
Add-On Installation Tool SAINT program. SPAM/SAINT update is recommended for support
package upgrade.
Step 2 : Load Package :

Load support packages we have two options:-
1. From Application Server

2. From Front End >> If file size is less than 16 MB.
Normally we do it from Application Server:
From the menu bar select Support Packages >> Load Packages >> From Application Server this
will load all of the support packages into the queue
Step 3 : Display/Define Queue:
Click the Display/Define button
Step 4 : Calculate Queue:

Click the All Components button/Select particular components
Click the Calculate Queue button
Click the Green Check button

Step 5 : Import Queue:
Click the Truck icon at the upper left to execute the import
Click on the green checkmark only after making setting in Start option as below:
As seen in the screenshot above, the phases in a SPAM upgrade are:

Preparation: all the preparatory and test steps are performed in this module (such as the test
import and Add-on conflict verification). >> Select Dialog from Start Option
Import 1: Dictionary objects are imported and activated in this module. The changes that result
from importing and activating the dictionary are still in an inactive state in the system.>> Select
Background from Start Option
Import 2: The remaining import steps are performed in this module, including activating the
inactive dictionary nametabs. Here, since changes are being imported in various transport
objects, no productive operation can take place while this module is running. This avoids any
inconsistencies.>> Select Background from Start Option
Clean Up: All the clean up activities are performed in this module, notably a modification
adjustment of the Repository objects.>> Select Manual/dialog from Start Option
Step 6 : Adjust SPDD and SPAU:
CALL SPAU when below screen comes and capture SPAU and send it to ABAP Team,Similarly
do for SPDD.
Then press Continue button:
SPAU: This transaction is used for adjusting the objects imported during the upgrade
SPDD: This transaction is used for adjusting the data dictionary objects imported during the
upgrade
Click on the green checkmark.
Click on the green checkmark.
Step 7 : Confirm Queue:

Confirm the queue by going to Support Package Confirm
Once Support packs are imported successfully then Run SGEN as below:
Generating objects using transaction SGEN

NOTE: Before you run SGEN make sure that database archiving is off.
Go to transaction SGEN
Click on Generate all objects of selected software component
Click continue
Select All and Press Continue
Select the Server (Note: Production will have CI and Dialog but not Dev, DC or Sandbox)
Click continue
Press the Start Job Directly button (this screen is called Load Generator Job Monitor)

Whenever we plan for any upgrade (ehp, version), before generating stack file we need to check active
system usage else during configuration phase wel get Stack mismatch error:
Error:
Validation of deployment queue completed with error: The stack does not match the system. Probably
the system was changed after the stack was generated. Synchronize the system with SAP Solution
Manager and then generate a new stack.

SUM Upgrade Error:
During the upgrade we generally get below error in Check phase if we dont have correct Java Instance
ID of system:
Error:
The central instance ID that would be calculated by the batch config utility is <XYZ>.
The following problem has occurred during step
execution: com.sap.sdt.j2ee.services.servicesimpl.AnalyseChecksResultsException:
The detected instance ID <XYZ> and the one calculated from the box number <ABC> do not match. A
possible reason for that is that you have changed the box number in the central instance
instance.properties file.
Root Cause:
This error comes if during the system copy/refresh java part was not taken care by standard SAP tool
We fixed java manually from Configtool after system refresh.
Solution :
Please take Java export of source system and again perform Java Import in target system using System
copy tool SWPM.

How to Activate Business Function sap

By admin September 24, 2016
What is Business Function in sap

When we upgrade our SAP system ( EHP upgrade or Version Upgrade) during Stack generation
file ,we select Business Usage and Technical usage and based upon our selection for Technical
Usage at the end of the upgrade some additional Business Function comes in our upgraded
system.
In order to get those business functionalities in upgraded system ,we need to activate
corresponding Business Function else There is no use of upgrade from Business point of view.
How to Activate Business

Function sap
Go to Sap T Code : SFW5
Click on Continue:
Select related Business Function and Press Activate Changes.
NOTE: Its very dangerous to activate Business Functions without knowledge / proper
understanding ,Dont Do it in Production directly as some business functions are not
reversible.
After activation business functions,we need to activate related services from SICF.
Refer SAP documentation for activation of Business Functions for more details.

How to Deploy SCA file using SDM

Software Deployment Manager Command
Line
Software Deployment Manager
tool SDM | How to Deploy SCA
file using SDM Command Line
Software Deployment Manager SDM tool comes with the SAP Java stack.
In SAP Netweaver 2004 ,We used to deploy java support patches using Software Deployment
Manager SDM but later JSPM (JaVa Support Pack Manager) came into picture in NW 2004s
JSPM was advance tool compare to SDM.It automatically calculate Queue and import Java
Patches ,We can say easy method to deploy java Patches.
But internally JSPM calls SDM only and patches are deployed with SDM only.
So we can say SDM is core of JSPM Java Support Pack Manager.

In this tutorial i cover, how we can apply Java patch with SDM,suppose we have single Java
patch so applying with JSPM is time consuming and SDM is good approach in this case.Here i
am explaining to deploy java patches with command line:
Please follow below commands in sequence:
Step 1: Goto SDM program directory:

cd /usr/sap/<SID>/DVEBMGS<instance no>/SDM/program
Step 1: Stop SDM server :
StopServer.sh
Step 3 :Start SDM= JStartup in standalone mode means not intregated with Java-
sdm.sh jstartup mode=standalone
Step 4: Deploy Java Patch with below command-
sdm.sh deploy file=<complete path of SCA/SDA file>
Step 5 :Start SDM-JStartup in integrated mode with JAVA-

sdm.sh jstartup mode=integrated
Step 6: Start SDM server-

StartServer.sh

What is SSFS and How we can add SSFS authentication
SSFS (Secure Storage in File System) configuration

What is SSFS:
As of kernel release 7.20, SAP has therefore introduced a new method of securely storing the database
password and for connecting to the database: "Secure Storage in File System" (SSFS). The encrypted
password for the SAP database user is then no longer stored in the database, but in the file system.
Prior to SSFS, the connection between the SAP system (AS ABAP) and the SAP tools that use the ABAP
database interface (R3trans, R3load etc.) to the database via SQLNet (using the database alias name, for
like configured in TNS) worked in such a way that an OPS$ connection (with the database user
OPS$<SID>ADM) that was authorized by the operating system user sidadm was created first ( via
"connect /@TNS"). With this approach access to the table OPS$<SID>ADM.SAPUSER, and to this table
was only allowed. It contains the encrypted password for the actual database connection of the SAP
database user (default name Schema User).
Referred SAP Notes:
1. 1639578 = Documents Basis instructions/steps below.
2. 1623922 = Provides overview on how to connect to the Database using SSFS.
3. 1622837 = Documents steps/instructions to be taken care of by DBA team.
High Level Sequence:

Step 1: Basis change internal connect. This is all accomplished in Note #1 above.
Step 2: DBA change the external connect. This is all accomplished in Note #3 above.
Step 3: DBA drop OPS$ and old authentication
NOTE: No application validation required.
SW pre-requisites:
We should at a minimum, needs to be at Kernel 720, Patch 98. Referred SAP Note 1611877.
Basis Steps to be performed for to enable SSFS authentication:
1. Preparing and securing the file system

Create dir rsecssfs/data and rsecssfs/key Under /sapmnt/SID/global/security.Make sure to give
appropriate permission.
<server:sidadm> mkdir rsecssfs

<server:sidadm> chmod 775 rsecssfs
<server:sidadm> rsecssfs
<server:sidadm> mkdir data
<server:sidadm> mkdir key
<server:sidadm> chmod 777 data key
2. Maintaining the SSFS profile parameters:

Add below mentioned parameter in Default profile-

level
GRC 10.1 installation Guide high level steps:
SAP Access Control 10.1, Process Control 10.1, and Risk Management 10.1 are part of the SAP
solutions for governance, risk, and compliance (GRC). SAP Access Control 10.1 runs on SAP
NetWeaver 7.40 SP02 (on non-HANA or HANA databases).
From Basis side high level steps for installation are mentioned below:
Steps for GRC 10.1 system:
1. Install NW 7.40 SP 04 AS ABAP by SWPM.

2. For Access Control, Process Control & Risk Management ,install Software Component:
GRCFND_A. as ADDON from SAINT. or SUM on installed system
3. We need to install Software Component: SLL-LEG ,if we want to use Global Trade system on
installed system
4. We need to install Software component :GRFD_STRUCTURE,if we want to use content life
cycle management on installed system.
5. Activating the Applications in Clients
6. Checking SAP ICF Services >> Activate services
7. Configuring the SAP Net Weaver Gateway
8. Maintaining Plug-in Settings >> Once plug-ins are installed in Backend systems.
9. Activating BC Sets >> Based upon client requirement, we need to activate BC sets ,it may be
related to AC,PC and RM.
10. Creating the Initial User in the ABAP System for process control.
Steps for Backend systems:

Installation of Plug-In for AC/PC 10.1 on ERP
GRCPIERP Used for HR function
GRCPINW Used for Non HR functions.
SLL_PI Used for GTS plugin.
Portal and BW are optional: Portal and BW are optional based on requirement. To enable the
printing of PDFs from Process Control reports and Risk Management reports We need to install
GRC plugin Portal Content & BI content on portal and BW respectively. BI Java Usage Type
must be installed on the same system as the Adobe Document Services. As we dont have any
portal system in our landscape so dont see any requirement to install separate portal.
We can also use NWBC as web client to access GRC ,if we dont use portal.

SPUMG is very important tool used in Non unicode to Unicode conversion.It is standrad Tcode
provided by SAP based upon our SAP release.
SPUMG is used in Preconversion Phase:
Preconversion phase means,before doing actual unicode conversion,We need to complete many
presteps or we can say we need to prepare our system for Unicode Conversion so mostly
preconversion presteps are covered bt SPUMG Tcode.
How to Use SPUMG:

SPUMG is used to prepare the database tables of a non-Unicode system for conversion phase
(R3load). Its results are stored in the Export Control Table and the Language List.
Goto Tocde: SPUMG

First thing we need to do with SPUMG is >
Restart SPUMG:
After a restart, you will be displayed the entrance screen of SPUMG. All data which might have
been already entered in SPUMG are now deleted.
Go to Scanner Restart SPUMG
After Restart of SPUMG we can perform highligted Steped with the help of SPUMG.

TDMS- TEST DATA MIGRATION

SERVER PRESTEPS
SAP Test Data Migration Server (SAP TDMS) is a high-speed data tool that transfers business
data from your SAP production system to your development, test, quality training system.
By enabling the transfer of just the relevant set of application data from the SAP production
system, SAP TDMS allows you to create a lean and consistent non-production system.
Recommended system settings for TDMS
Refer to OSS Note 890797 for the recommended settings for Control / Central / Sender /
Receiver systems.
Some of the required system settings are given below:
Central system:
Dialog work processes 15 (minimum 6)
Background work processes 10 (minimum 8)
Profile parameters: rec/client=off, rdisp/max_wprun_time=900 (s)
DB settings logging switched off (NOARCHIVELOGMODE)
System change options (SCC4) Allowed changes to repository and Cross-client customizing
Sender system:
Profile parameters: rdisp/max_wprun_time=1800 (s)
Receiver system:
Profile parameters: rdisp/max_wprun_time=1800 (s)
DB settings logging switched off (NOARCHIVELOGMODE)
UNDO tablespace ~2% of estimated data transfer, UNDO RETENTION TIME set
appropriately (lowered)
Make sure to set the Database in NOARCHLOG mode for Central & Receiver Systems before
starting the copy.
The Database will be unmounted and remounted during the archivelog mode change.
Also, please make sure you have adequate freespace available in DB of the Receiver system.
Also, keep an eye on filesystem /usr/sap/ of Central system as the size of stats file will increase
rapidly during copy which may lead to the filesystem getting full.
