Hi All,

We have Build DR Standby System which we have restored from Prod System into a Standby System.

We have used the Log Shipping Script which is available in the below wiki Link

HowTo - Standby System (Recovery from Log Backup) - MaxDB - SCN Wiki

Our SAP Landscape Environment is Windows OS 2008 and MAXDB 7.6

Well, This Script  consist in 3 files: Standby.Bat, Recovery_Builder, Recovery_Apply. We have implemented these scripts in STANDBY SERVER,

We've tried to adapt the code for our system landscape but when we execute the script we're running into an error:

And we are facing issue in the 2nd Script RECOVERY_BUILDER, As per the script it will Set DB to Admin mode and then builds the import list and exports to script file.

I have tried this script but no success i.e i cannot generate the Script file, The Script is Working till : EXIT LOOP

Please find our adapted Script with changed LOG Path, DBMCLI, Passwords

RECOVERY BUILDER :

          )

:end

The Live DB variable is PROD Server Hostname FQDN

LOG Backup Path = Z:\DR_DataBackup\Log_Bkp

Backup_Medium_Label = SDB_log_bkp

I have run the script manually with 3 log files generated manually, The Script is giving me values of Current USED log page and LAST LOG PAGE,

After this EXIT LOOP the script comes out of loop and doesn't generating the script file.

Could you provide me what are wrong in my adapted scripts and help me with them??

Thanks,

Hi,

I (succesfully, as far as I can tell) installed MaxDB on a Windows 7 Professional x64 Vmware virtual PC (maxdb-all-win-64bit-x86_64-7_8_02_28) and now want to also install MaxDB database studio (maxdb-studio-win-64bit-x86_64-7_9_08_01). While the installation seems to finish successfully, I'm running into errors after starting (as administrator). First error is

'Loading preference values failed; default values will be used

Reason:

Missing object type: :Loader'

then

'Could not read preferences

Reason:

Missing object type: :SQLSTUDIO'

The Event log viewer shows warnings about the utilities path not specified and again Errors about 'Missing object type:: preferences'

While Eclipse then starts up, it is not possible to work with the locally installed DB (which seems to be detectect, however). Again there are errors about

'Missing object type::preferences' as well as

'Could not load mounted Local Folders'

'Can not get registration preferences'

'Get login attributes failed'

'User management exception: Missing object tye::UM_CONNECTION_KEY_REPLACE_WITH_DATABASE_NAME'

Searching the web using these errors does result in too much help, , unfortunately, for UM_CONNECTION_KEY_REPLACE_WITH_DATABASE_NAME I do net get a single hit with google.

First I thought my Java SDK 1.7, is too recent, so I uninstalled DB studio and Java and tried again with Oracle jdk-6u37-windows-x64, but I'm getting the same errors. I also noted that, as it seems, the DB Studio remembered the password from the previous installation. It did not ask for a new one during the new installation but asked for the old one after I started it (I consider this a bug).

Any ideas anyone? Any help would be appreciated.

Maybe I should also note that at first I had a broken MaxDB installation (it failed to load the system tables), which I uninstalled, however and reinstalled (then succesfully).

Thanks in advance and best regards,

Thomas

Hi,

I have installed SAP Netweaver developer Studio 6.40 which installed MAXDB database also. Due to some reason I had to unistall the trial version of Developer studio, in this process developer studio got unistalled but not MAXDB.

*----

I use Add/Remove programs and uninstall MaxDB. I get the messages like this.....

Start uninstallation now (y/n) : Y (resoponse)

then message displays

found instance of J2E, cannot remove package..first remove all instances...

*----

I have stopped all the services, even then Iam getting such error message. How do I uninstall?

Help needed.

Hello Colleagues,

I tried to install the SAP Max Database Studio 7.9.08 in a 64 bit version on a Windows 7 64bit (Intel) PC.

The newest version as SAP package "MAXDBSTDDSK7908_4-20006288.SAR" downloaded at Service Market Place.

After unzip with SAPCAR I executed the Setup "SDBSETUP.exe" with the default values.

Standard path "C:\sapdb\...

I tried es with different path like "C:\Program Files\sapdb\ ... with the same error situation

At SAPMax - XML Log Viewer I found serveral error's

ERR: Invalid value for type "path"

...

ERR: install registry not found

ERR: Cannot open install registry

...

ERR: Service check failed

ERR: Cannot open "C:\Windows\SysWOW64\drivers\etc\services" to write: No such file or directory

...

After check with "SAP Note 1097311 - SAP MaxDB Database Studio installation" I asume the issue is related to the Registry-Key path.

This ist the SAP requirement:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SYSTEM \ CurrentControlSet \ Control \ Windows \

SystemDirectory

Wert: "%SystemRoot%\system32" (type REG_EXPAND_SZ)

I have following values on the client PC:

SystemDirectory     REG_SZ     C:\Windows\SysWOW64

I don't think I can change the Windows 7 standard value/path here to the SAP value?!

Does anyone know the problem and how I am able to solve it?

Many thanks advance!

Regards,

Jochen

Hi All,

Hi Folks,

We have configured the user event dispatcher on livecache system with MAX DB database though dispatcher is activated but we are not receiving alerts on mail. In run directory M:\sapdb\SID\data\wrk\SID dbm.cfg is created with the following parameters

DBADTL              =1

AUTOSAVE            =1

RunEventDispatcher  =yes

SDBED_SMTPSENDERAD  =SID-Sandbox-LiveCache@company.com

SDBED_SMTPSERVERS   =smtphost.company.com:25

RunUserDispatcher   =yes

Also dbm_whitelist.cfg is created using user SIDADM but there is no entry in file it is empty. We have configured the following alerts

0000000001.((Name == "Offline") && (Priority == 3))=sdbmail "<subject>Test</subject> <body>The database name is $DBNAME$</body> <recipient>ashans@company.com</recipient>";

0000000002.((Name == "Online") && (Priority == 3))=sdbmail "<subject>Test</subject> <body>The database name is $DBNAME$</body> <recipient>ashans@company.com</recipient>";

FILEVERSION=7.9.08.29

entries are there in dbm_ed_user.cfg file.

Whenever i bring down/up the MAXDB database i supposed to get an alerts but I am not receiving any alert on recipient address and in logs i did not find any error. Can you please let me know if i missed any point.

Thanks

Ashish

We already tried to import a backup into a new server with the latest 7.9.08.32 - but the error remains the same.

In the Db Error File we get:

Running the "Structural Consistency Check" returned:

OK

Your database structure is consistent.

Pages Used: 31.546 Pages (252.368 KB)

All applications (beside those that access MetaData) work fine.

Access to the data itself works without problems.

Is there a way to repair the catalog information?

Any help is really appreciated.

Hello

After migrating a sapdb instance (7.3 system) to maxdb 7.6 I have problems with the superdba and the control user.s The password that I think they should be the right do not work.

Now I'm looking for the possibility to reset the password of superdba and/or control user.

Please do not send me the notes

25591 - Changing the DBM, SYSDBA and DBA user passwords

and

39439 - XUSER entries for SAP DB and MaxDB

as done in many other SDN threads. This doesn't work for me because you can change the password only if you know the actual password (standarlogins superdba/admin and control/control do not work btw).

Does anyone know how to reset those passwords?

Thanks and regards

Marco

Hi everyone

I have SAP Solution Manager 7.1 On Linux suse 11 and MaxDB 7.8 with SID ZZZ. The password of dba user SAPZZZ was changed.

The old password was for example'XxHh$115' (with special caracter $) and the new password is 'XxSYy2015'.

I change the password in Database studio following the instructions of the sap notes:

25591 - Password change for DBM and DBA users

39439 - XUSER entries for SAP MaxDB

The change of the password was succesfully.

I obtain an error in the transactioN DB13 and using dbmcli command:

dbmcli: hostname_xx:ssmadm 69> dbmcli -d ZZZ -u SAPZZZ,XxSYy2015

Error! Connection failed to node (local) for database ZZZ:

-24950,ERR_USRFAIL: User authorization failed

In DB13: Name and Server    :

ZZZ - hostname_xx Function          

: DBM_GETF Command          

: DBAHIST DATE=20141010 Error            

: DBM Error Return Code        :        -2 Error Message    

: ERR_USRFAIL: User authorization failed

I try to change the password via dbmcli with the following command:

dbmcli -u SAPZZZ,XxHh\$115 -uk DEFAULT -us SAPZZZ,XxSYy2015 -d ZZZ -n hostname_xx

but the error is: Error! wrong username or password!

Database studio is working fine, I can to execute backups with the user SAPZZZ.

Please help us to solve it, I need schedule the database backup using the transaction DB13 but the job ended with message: -24950,ERR_USRFAIL: User authorization failed.

Thanks in advanced for your help.

Best Regards,

Osmany Martínez

Hi,

I have installed SAP Netweaver developer Studio 6.40 which installed MAXDB database also. Due to some reason I had to unistall the trial version of Developer studio, in this process developer studio got unistalled but not MAXDB.

*----

I use Add/Remove programs and uninstall MaxDB. I get the messages like this.....

Start uninstallation now (y/n) : Y (resoponse)

then message displays

found instance of J2E, cannot remove package..first remove all instances...

*----

I have stopped all the services, even then Iam getting such error message. How do I uninstall?

Help needed.

Hello,

I'm writing back following an old thread in 2009 on this forum, related to a problem with MaxDB and "AK Cachedirectory full" problems. You can find the previous thread here: What can we so against Error "-9400 AK Cachedirectory full"?

The problem was actually never resolved: we could more or less live with it, and we managed to reduce it for a while, but we are having that problem again almost every day now. We actually fixed various points since 2009 and our system has changed quite a lot.

We use MaxDB 7.8.02 (BUILD 038-121-249-252) with the JDBC Driver sapdbc-7.6.09_000-000-010-635.jar. Note that we don't use MaxDB in a SAP environment as we have our own business application.

Following some very helpful feedback from Lars Breddemann, we fixed various points in our system: for example, result sets were not always properly closed, this is now done immediately after the query has been executed and the result rows were read. We also follow the advise from Elke Zietlow to always close a connection and its associated prepared statements when the error occurs. This also helps in most cases, but sometimes when the error occurs, even closing the connection and its prepared statements does not help and the problem "escalates" until we have to restart the db to fix the problem.

Back to the discussion in 2009, I used the two statements given by Lars to monitor the catalog cache usage: when I run this multiple times, I see that all result sets are properly closed as I only see the ones currently being used and they disappear.

One important point is that our java application keeps many prepared statements open in a cache, to have them ready to be reused. We can have up to 10'000 prepared statements open, with up to 100 jdbc connections. Actually the AK Cachedirectory full problem happens sometimes very soon after we restart our system and db, so at that time the number of prepared statements can be very low, which seems to indicate that the number of prepared statements being open is not necessarily linked to the problem.

Also in the discussion in 2009, Lars mentioned the fact that we use prepared statements of the type TYPE_SCROLL_INSENSITIVE and he was asking if we could not use TYPE_FORWARD_ONLY. Would this really make a difference? We need the TYPE_SCROLL_INSENSITIVE in many cases because we use some iterators to scroll up and down the result sets, so using TYPE_FORWARD_ONLY would require changing quite some code. I also saw in the MaxDB code that using the type TYPE_SCROLL_INSENSITIVE adds the string "FOR REUSE" to the sql statement, what does it exactly mean?

Amy help to fix that problem would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,

I have standalone MAXDB 7.7 database on Linux. I want to connect it to Solman7.1 for monitoring. I have pushed the data of server to SLD after installing diagnostic agent and hostcontrol agent . XUSER entry is also mentained on server.  But SLD is only able identify host detail and not the maxdb database present on th servers.

On server, i could see log in file /usr/sap/hostctrl/work/XCMDOUT.LOG as:

"

Start subprocess as user with uid: sapadm

--------------------------------------------------------------

> Subprocess starts at 20150410144138

Execute Command : /sapdb/programs/bin/dbmcli -U SDB -U SDB -n <hostname> db_state

Error! Connection failed to node <hostname> for database SDB:

database instance not found

> Subprocess stops at 20150410144138

> Subprocess call failed

"

But when i directly execute command /sapdb/programs/bin/dbmcli -U SDB -U SDB -n <hostname> db_state on server, It able to fetch the db detail fine as:

OK

State

ONLINE

Please help me understand how to proceed and how to fix this issue.
