How you will do client copy? If SAP * user is not available
at all in your system then how u will do client copy?
|
A.
|
Just go to RZ04 and increase the number of background processes in
the specified operation mode. We do a system copy using SCCL transaction.
If SAP* is not available,
→login at OS level as SIDADM
and
→sqlplus /nolog connect /as
sysdba;
→delete sapsr3.usr02 where
mandt='' and bname='SAP*';
→ go to
/usr/sap/SID/SYS/profile →and change the default profile.
→Add the parameter
ogin/no_automatic_user_sapstar=0
(0R)
→go to RZ10, select default
profile and extended maintenance and change.
→ add the parameter
ogin/no_automatic_user_sapstar=0

What is supplementation language?
|
A.
|
Use the language supplementation function to fill in the gaps in a
language that has not been translated completely.
Supplementation actions are client-specific. The languages are supplemented
in the client in which you are logged on.
If you use multiple clients, you must supplement the languages explicitly in
each production client.
You can also access the texts stored in cross-client database tables from all
clients simultaneously. The default setting specifies that cross-client
tables are supplemented when you are logged on to client 000.

|
Name some drawbacks of SAP?
|
A.
|
There are many benefits to implementing an integrated solution such
as SAP. Commercial benefits would include having a single source for your
financial information. Capturing your business transactions in one location
allows you to easily review inventory, customer and vendor activity. On the
technical side, a solution on a single platform will enable easier
maintenance and support, reducing costs. Having a consolidated system means
fewer interfaces to support. By having a single system of record your human
resources will become familiar with terminology associated with this data and
the standard processes. This may improve communication and create a work
force that is easier to transfer between roles. Any drawbacks to such a
solution would depend on the amount of restrictions you choose to place on
your environment. New business solutions may have to fit within the current
system, technology must be compatible and human resources must adapt to
handle data in certain standard processes.

Query. The data of an ODS Object can be updated with a delta update into
InfoCubes and/or other ODS Objects in the same system or across systems. In
contrast to multi-dimensional data storage with InfoCubes, the data in ODS
Objects is stored in transparent, flat database tables.

Profiles are the component of the older SAP releases, this was not
replaced in the newer versions but a new layer was placed above Profiles,
Roles. Profiles are therefore a subcomponent of Roles, they have a one too
many relationship where when authorization objects overflow one profiles
limit it will create a second profile for that Role and so on. Roles are
logically assigned to users to give the newer functionality of Roles (Menus
etc), but profiles are assigned to give the authorizations.

What are homogeneous copy and heterogeneous copy and how
you will do that? How to import the OSS notes? What is OCS how to apply OCS
patches? ABAP service pack level can found in SPAM, but how to find the java
stack level?
|
A.
|
Homogeneous copy is done when the source and target system are on the
same OS and Database. Heterogeneous Copy is done when the source and target
system differ either in OS or Database. Any ONE difference needs a
heterogeneous copy. Homogenous copy is done by export/import technique. Heterogeneous
copy is done by system migration. It is same as export/import except that it
will ask for target OS and DB type and needs a key to be entered. OSS notes
are applied using T-code SNOTE. Java stack level can be found at
http://hostname.domain.com/500 go to system info to find the java stack
level.
|

|
How to transport from uses from one client to another?
|
A.
|
First export the objects for transport from the table AQLDB to the
transport table AQTDB. This creates a transport request for the transport
system that includes all entries created by the export from table AQTDB
(transport dataset). The request covers all the entries from table AQTDB
(transport dataset) generated by the export and has a name which corresponds
to transport system conventions (sysKnnnnnn). In the table AQTDB, the
transport dataset is stored under a key which matches the name of the transport
request. If you are transporting within one SAP system (that is only from one
client to another), you can also import the transport dataset from the target
client. In this case, you use the name of the transport request which is
specified during the export and matches the key of the transport dataset in
the table AQTDB. During this import, the system reads the transport dataset
from the transport table AQTDB into the table AQLDB. At the same time, it
performs numerous checks which ensure that no inconsistencies occur in the
table AQLDB.

organized interface where a user can access and work with any type of
document assigned to them in the Business Information Warehouse, such as
workbooks, links, and BW Web reports. The BW database itself is segmented
into discrete data areas called InfoCubes that are made up of data and
associated metadata. The BEx analyzer allows the user to examine segmented
data in a variety of useful combinations, for example when comparing financial
data for different fiscal years.

|
What SAP tools you use to install SAP patches?
|
A.
|
SPAM is the sap tool used to install sap patches But if patches is
less then 10MB at that time you will Run transaction SPAM, if patches greater
than 10 MB at that time you have to uncar by using SAPCAR File name and after
UNCAR put the file in /user/trans/directory.
|
42.
|
Can SAP patches be installed when other users are online?
|
A.
|
No, We can’t do this because there will be some programs and tables
which will get updated when applying support packages. if some user is using
that program or table then the support package manager will not be able to
update and it will terminate with dump. So it’s better to apply support packs
when there are no users login into system. Performance will also be better if
there is no users login into system.

43.
|
How to monitor user accessed transactions (Tcode) day wise?
|
A.
|
The transaction codes to monitor user accessed transactions are as
follows : ST01, ST05. By putting the trace on we can find what are the
various activities performed by the user along with the missing
authorizations of a particular user.
|
44.
|
Why do you usually choose to implement SAP?
|
A.
|
Because sap has so many advantages to others, like :-
1. Sap is componentized (summation of moduled).
2. Software & hardware independent.
3. R/3 architecture.
4. Own programming language (abap)
4-generation.
5. Supports at different level are also.
6. Sap is able to fit easily
