Hi experts,

I've scheduled a job which is running to long and I want to cancel now.

The scheduling I have done via DBACOCKPIT, as there is no option to cancel in, I guess I have to do that in isql.

However, what is the command for that?

Kind regards

Hi Guys

Im getting an error when scheduling an Backup via DB13

Stored procedure 'saptools.dbo.SP_ADM_DUMPDB' not found. Specify owner.objectname or use sp_help to check whether the object exists (sp_help may produce lots of output).

This is only occurring on a system which was updated to ASE 15.7.133. On other systems which version is 15.7.122 is working fine

I have performed all activities detailed in Note  1607816 and also imported note 1882376 - SYB: DBA Cockpit Correction Collection SAP Basis 7.40 which has several correction

Tried to find this stored procedure on both systems, in DB not updated Stored Procedure is found, on the other is not present

Hello together,

is there a possibility to schedule jobs in DBACOCKPIT and give them a name?
I want to schedule sql staments and the job title is always SQL_SCRIPT.

Hi,

I was wondering if there is a simple command to create a new user for our DEV database, who will only have read permissions?

I created a user test, in the DEV database.But now I want to give it read access to the entire DEC database.
In the documentaton I can only find how to give the permission per table, but not for the entire database.

Best regards,

Menno

Hi Experts,

Please help,

I had a situation like I have lost all the passwords SA, SAPSA, SAPSSO so I was forced to regenerate to SA password to get into database. I have followed a procedure 1872806. Got the password for SA with that I have changed the SAPSA and SAPSSO passwords.

+++SYBADM shows the connection was successfully established. But we are failing to trigger auto backups.

Also the scheduled calender jobs are failing after the password resets. More over SA is locked.

At OS level I am getting a message worker jsj__RunSQLJob:jsd_MakeConnection() failed for user sapsa to server SID”

Please help on this situation.

Hello Colleagues,

I am having BI/BW system of following configuration, which is a dual stack split system and having same DB :

Current Landscape: (NW 7.02 SPS16 BW, Distributed )

1. ABAP Stack
SID : ABA
Primary Application Instance Hostname :host1
Database Host : host2
DB SID: ABA
Database Type: Max DB
OS : Windows

2. JAVA Stack
SID:  JAV
Primary Application Instance Hostname : host1
Database SID : ABA (same as ABAP SID)
Database Host : host2
Database Type : Max DB
OS: Windows

Desired Target Landscape
1. ABAP Stack
SID : ABA
Primary Application Instance Hostname :host3
Database SID : ABA
Database Host : host4
Database Type : Sybase ASE
OS : Linux
2. JAVA Stack
SID:  JAV
Primary Application Instance Hostname :host3
Database SID : ABA
Database Host : host4
Database Type : Sybase ASE
OS : Linux

In this scenario, will below TO LEVEL steps will work :

1. Install ASCS & SCS in host3 .

2. Perform parallel export import from source DB (Max DB) to target DB (ASE).

3. Install PAS .

Please provide your suggestion how to proceed forward.

Can help me someone with the following issues?

We are testing the database inmemory option for SAP ASE, the purpose is to reduce the execution time of the batch process, but we have had the following problems:

When we have enabled full dml_logging the log is consumed very quickly and we visualize LOG SUSPEND message therefore we have placed this dml_logging minimal

Could this help us optimize the runtime on a batch process?

That we could have disadvantages when using this option?

Thanks in Advance

Hi experts,

we have a db running since weeks and suddenly (today morning) the Data Cache Hit Ratio is very low (around 50%).

How can I analyze this and increase it back to around 100%?

I still have not found some information about what it is good for and what it means.

Kind regards

If I want to disable transaction log is

use master

go

sp_dboption SBP, 'trunc',true

go

use SBP

go

checkpoint

go

and I want to enable again

use master

go

sp_dboption SBP, 'trunc',false

go

use SBP

go

checkpoint

go

The checkpoint command is mandatory to change the mode of transaction log?

Hi,

tonight we have got some dumps with SQL error 7794 on a select single for a custom table:

At the same time I see that there is an update statistic on this table...

Have you got any idea? The box is on Windows 2012R2 with ASE 15.7.131

Thank you.

Dear Experts,

Please explain me the concept of fragmentation in detail.

Regards,

Dilip Voora.

Hi All,

We are getting below error in our Production System frequently.

ASE Error SQL1105][SAP][ASE ODBC Driver][Adaptive Server Enterprise]Can't allocate space for object 'syslogs' in database 'saptools' because 'logsegment' segment is full/has no free extents. If you ran out of space in syslogs, dump the transaction log. Otherwise, use ALTER DATABASE to increase the size of the segment.

When ever the above issue is occurring THEN we are adding the space to saptools database and the related file system (/sybase/GTT/sapdiag) & it is running out of space now.

FYI.

We have not enabled the Transaction Log backup as we have space issues. Please advice for the permanent solution.

Regards,

Karthik

Hi guys

After perfoming an ASE Upgrade on a Solution Manager system running in Windows Server 2012/ASE 15.7, Java Stack is not starting

I have performed an Upgrade as recommended in SAP Note 1982469 - SYB: Updating SAP ASE with saphostctrl / sapdbctrl.

Updated Database with command

saphostctrl -user <user> <password> -function LiveDatabaseUpdate -dbname <SAPSID> -dbtype syb
-updatemethod Execute -updateoption TASK=UPDATE_ASE -updateoption DROP_LOCATION="<drop location>"

Since it was a major upgrade from 15.7 to 16 I have also adapted secure store

rsecssfx put DB_CONNECT/SYB/SYBSID_USER syb<sapsid> -plain

rsecssfx put DB_CONNECT/SYB/SYBSID_PASSWORD <password>

rsecssfx put DB_CONNECT/SYB/SAPSID_USER <sapsid>adm -plain

rsecssfx put DB_CONNECT/SYB/SAPSID_PASSWORD <password>

Also updated ODBC and JDBC drivers on Windows: <drive>:\usr\sap\<SID>\SYS\global\syb\NTAMD64, and updated Kernel to latest version 721EXT

In the Bootstrap log you can see its failing to connect to Database, but ABAP stack is working and DB is accessible.

Tried to access to Config Tool and also fails connecting to DB

Any idea what could be causing this?

Also after ASE 16 Upgrade, there are no logs under J:\sybase\ASD\ASE-16_0\install, where are now logs files related to DB?

Best

Martin

unable to install sysbase database

can you plz sugget me

Hi All,

In DBA Cockpit of Sybase ASE 15.7 we found the following error in Self-Monitoring:

When I went to the Collector Configuration, I saw the message "System <SID> is not configured for HA/DR. Data collector must be dropped!". What is the proper response for this error?

It seems that this related to High Availability scenario, which we will not configure this time, so is there anyway to bypass this error or remove the collectors?

I'm looking forward to your feedbacks.

Regards,

Duy

DBA Cockpit: Automatic Table Maintenance for SAP ASE

General Availability of SAP Adaptive Server Enterprise

Hi All,

We have SYBASE ASE 15.7.0.131 in our ECC 6.0 system (SAP_BASIS 740 SP 9). I tried to perform the Configuration Check in DBA Cockpit, but it failed with the error "Required data collector Tables is not set up properly"

The following 2 errors are seen from DBA Cockpit:

• [ASE Error SQL2812][SAP][ASE ODBC Driver][Adaptive Server Enterprise]Stored procedure 'saptools..SP_ADM_CONFIGCHECK' not found.
• [ASE Error SQL208:42000][SAP][ASE ODBC Driver][Adaptive Server Enterprise]saptools..CFGCHK_RULEBOOK not found.

In DBA Cockpit Self-Monitoring, there are errors as in the following screenshot:

The errors related to some corresponding tables which does not exist. One of the warning showed "Table DBH_SNAP_TABLES: Column 'NumLevel0Waiters' does not exist". Another warning is "Another version of procedure 'saptools..SP_DBH_FWK_CLEANUP' found!"

In addition, when I tried to dump a database in DBA Cockpit, the dump failed due to the following error "Stored procedure 'saptools.dbo.SP_ADM_DUMPDB' not found". It seems that there is something wrong with the database saptools, but I could not find any thing in DBACOCKPIT error log.

We have implemented the following notes, but they did not solve the problems:

• 2170712 (SYB: DBACOCKPIT, Various Fixes for SAP Configuration Check) in both the managed system (ECC) and the managing system (Solution Manager).
• 1558958 (SYB: DBA Cockpit Correction Collection SAP Basis 7.02..) in Solution Manager
• 1882376 (SYB: DBA Cockpit Correction Collection SAP Basis 7.40) in the ECC System.

What should I do to troubleshoot those errors?

I would be very grateful for any contribution.

Best regards,

Duy

Since I patched to the above I now get lots of these in the error log.

Unfortunately each occurrence of one of these is matched to a connection leak in sp_who, these show as 'MAINTENANCE_TOKEN' spids (you can kill them off with kill spid BTW), I remember from years ago this really means that it was a failed connection process.

I know which client they come from, the IP is in master.sysprocesses, in fact I can prove it by stopping the client process from running.

The client process is a third party monitoring server (GEB / ServerCheck) that just pings the hostname:port to see if the ASE server is up.

I can't patch further up the environment with this hanging over, if the monitoring server can cause connection leaks. maybe something else out there could be port scanning for instance.

Anyone else tried SP134 yet ?
