What is private mode? When does user switch to user mode?
Private mode is a mode where the heap data is getting exclusively allocated by t
he user and is no more shared across the system. This happens when your extended
memory is exhausted.
How can I restrict the user from printing? (What authorizations should we disabl
e)
we can restrict using su01-defaults- clear the output device(if any).
How can I restrict the user from printing? (What authorizations should we disabl
e)
Use the object S_SPO_DEV to restirct.
What is osp$ mean? What if user is given with this authorisation?
OPS$ is the mechanism the <SID>adm users uses to connect to the database .
Why do you use DDIC user not SAP* for Support Packs and SPam?
Do _NOT_ use neither DDIC nor SAP* for applying support packages. Copy DDIC to a
separate user and use that user to apply them.
Can you kill a Job?
Yes
SM37
select

kill

If you have a long running Job, how do you analyse?

Use transaction SE30.
How to uncar car/sar files in a single shot?
on Unix:
$ for i in *.SAR; do SAPCAR -xvf $i; done
When we should use Transactional RFC ?
A transactional RFC means, that either both parties agree that the data was correc
tly transfered or not. There is no half data transfer .
What is the use of Trusted system. I know that there is no need of UID and PWD
to communicate with partner system. In what situation it is good to go for Trust
ed system ?
E. g. if you have an R/3 system and a BW system and don t want to maintain passwor
ds. Same goes for CRM and a lot of other systems/applications.

Let me know if my understanding below is correct:

1) By default the RFC destination is synchronous
2) Asynchronous RFC is used incase if the system initiated the RFC call no need
to wait for the response before it proceeds to something else.
Yes
that s right.
But keep in mind, that it s not only a technical issue whether to switch to asynch
ronous. The application must also be able to handle that correctly.
Which table contains the details related to Q defined in SPAM? Is there a way to
revert back the Q defined? If yes, How?
There is a delete button when you define the queue. If you already started the imp
ort it s no more possible since the system will become inconsistent.
What is a developer key? and how to generate a developer key?
The developer key is a combination of you installation number, your license key
(that you get from http://service.sap.com/licensekey) and the user name. You nee
d this for each person that will make changes (Dictionary or programs) in the sy
stem.
What is XI3.0 ? EXPLAIN XI = Exchange Infrastructure Part of Netweaver 2004.
SAP Exchange Infrastructure (SAP XI) is SAP s enterprise application integration (
EAI) software, a component of the NetWeaver product group used to facilitate the
exchange of information among a company s internal software and systems and those
of external parties. Like other NetWeaver components, SAP XI is compatible with
software products of other
companies.
SAP calls XI an integration broker because it mediates between entities with var
ying requirements in terms of connectivity, format, and protocols. According to
SAP, XI reduces integration costs by providing a common repository for interface
s. The central component of SAP XI is the SAP Integration Server, which facilita
tes interaction between diverse operating systems and applications across intern
al and external networked computer systems.
How to see when were the optimizer stats last time run? We are using win2k, ora
cle 9, sapr346c.
Assumed DB=Oracle
Select any table lets take MARA here but you should do the same for MSEG and few
others to see whether the dates match or not.Run the following command on the c
ommand prompt:select last_analyzed from dba_tables where table_name like %MARA% ;
This gives you a straight answer .Else you can always fish around in DB14 for se
eing when the optimzer stats were updated.
What is the use of profile paramater ztta/roll_area?
The value specifies the size of the roll area in bytes. The roll area is one of
several memory areas, which satisfies the user requests of user programs. For te
chnical reasons, however, the first 250 KB or so of a user context are always st
ored in the roll area, further data
- up to the roll area limit ztta/roll_first,
- in the extended memory, up to the limit ztta/roll_extension or if extended mem
ory is exhausted, then
- again in the roll area, until the roll area is full, then
- in the local process area, up to the limit abap/heap_area_dia or abap/heap_are
a_total or until the address space or the
swap space is exhausted.
Followed by termination with errors like STORAGE_PARAMETERS_WRONG_SET an error c
ode, that points to memory bottleneck Minimum data transfer with context change;
however, the increase helps to avoid problems (address space, swap space, opera
ting system paging).

What is R/3? and what is basis version?

SAP Basis:
- Provides the runtime environment for all SAP applications
- Optimally embeds the application in the system environment
- Defines a stable architecture framework for system enhancements
- Contains the tools for administering the entire system
- Allows the distribution of resources and system components
- Provides interfaces for decentralized system parts and external products.
An R/3 instance is a group of R/3 services that are started and stopped as a uni
t (by an R/3 dispatcher) and have a common instance profile. The name of an R/3
instance is composed of letters standing for the relevant services, and an insta
nce number which is unique for each computer. The services may be D, V, E, B, M,
G, or S, which respectively stand for dialogue, update, enqueue, background, me
ssage, gateway, and spool services.
I would like to know the version or name of SAP that is implemented in real time
?
This is a very generic question and really depends on what you are implementing
(modules).
The history of the R/3? is
3.0D Basis 300
3.0E Basis 300
3.0F Basis 300
3.1H Basis 310
3.1I Basis 310
4.0B Basis 400
4.5B Basis 450
4.6C Basis 460
4.71 Basis 6.20
4.72 Basis 6.20
5.00 Basis 6.40 (ECC 5.0
Enterprise Core components)
6.00 Basis 7.00 (ECC 6.0)
actually in RampUp
All of those have increased business functionality and interfaces to other syste
ms (CRM, BW etc.)
What is mysap?
It s a term for all the systems that in a contract (e. g. a MySAP business suite c
onsist of ERP2005, CRM2005, SRM2005).
What is the systems configuration required to implement SAP.. i.e for production
,development and QAS servers the hard disk space, RAM, Processor
This also depends on what your are implementing, how many users will work on the
system, how many records in what area are created etc.
We need a BIG database system and an even bigger application server for ~ 900 us
ers and 12 languages.
What is ASAP?
It s an old term for an implementation strategy. Blueprint -> prototype -> goLive
(if you want to say it in one sentence).
How should I set priority for Printing say like user, teamlead, project manager
?
There s nothing like priority settings for spool processes. Just define more (profil
e parameter rdisp/wp_no_spool) processes so people don t need to wait.
Using Tc SGEN I have generated 74% job and later I have terminated the job. I wi
sh to start generating from where it stopped I have refreshed but to no chance n
othing was done. How should I further proceed so as to complete the remaining jo
b..
Start SGEN again and select the same you have selected before. It will popup and
ask if you want to start from scratch or generate the just the remaining.

Ask him/her to describe how SAP handles Memory Management?

ST02 / ST03 In general via table buffers, you could go into the whole Work Proce
ss, roll in, roll out, heap (private) memory, etc. however just as a Unix or DBA
admin would know, is you look this up when needed for the exact specifics.
Ask him/her to describe where they would look at the buffer statistics, and what
steps they would use to adjust them?
ST02, RZ10
Ask him/her to describe how to setup a printer in SAP or where they would look
to research why a user/users can not print?
SPAD, SP01, SM50, SU01
Keep the interview to 3 general areas:
DB (what is the directory structure/ where are the files kept oracle alerts, ini
t.ora, redo logs, archive logs, etc.; possibly some basics stuff like what to do
high level when the archive directory fills up, etc. Keep this minimal as from a
SAP basis admin point of view Oracle is just a big giant bit bucket and SAP can
handle to the daily monitoring and maintenance itself.
OS (what is the directory structure (what is NFS mounted and why / where are the
message files contained for the OS error log; basic commands for the OS eg. Uni
x, mv, cp, ls, grep, ps-ef, df-k, etc. That is pretty much all the SAP basis adm
in will need to know. Client/Server architecture.
SAP (what is the directory structure / where are files located ie. profiles
star
t, instance, default (what are they and what is the order of precendence) start
is for statup only, instance is the first to be read then the default and if a g
iven parameter cannot be found in the instance or then the default then the inte
rnal standard is taken from RZ10 setting.
You can ask them to ran Transaction codes to you. Menus constanly change so go w
ith T-codes. He should have a good knowledge of the following areas; transports,
user / print / spool / batch management, monitoring, client tools and copies, s
upport packages, kernel patches, workload analysis, Roles and Security, etc.
The standard list of t-codes is pretty much
SM50, SM51, SM66, SM12, SM13, SM21, DB01, DB02, DB13, ST01, ST02, ST03, ST04, ST
05, ST06, SU01, SUIM, PFCG, SCC4, SE01, SE09, SE10, SPAM, SM35, SM36, SM37, SPAD
, SP01 SCC3, SCCL, SCC9 this are pretty much you heavy hitters for monitoring an
d support.
I would ask in general how he would troubleshoot the following:
- User cannot connect to SAP
check SAP logon settings, ping the host, check message server, check dispatcher,
etc.
- User cannot print
check SAP user setup, check SPAD, check spools, check unix queue or print queue
at the os level, etc
- System seems slow
check SM66, SM51, SM50, SM21, ST06, ST03, SMLG, AL08 etc.
Some important things to remember is to ask not get specific to your installatio
n or specific system setup as all SAP instances are different, keep your questio
n to general topics and general answers.
The most important thing to notice when choosing a candidate is not how they par
rot back answers to you, but if they can
a) think for themselves and
b) they actually like to and will keep on learning as no one knows it all and
c) they have a good background and willingness to perform analyis and will keep
on digginging until the answer is found or until their resources are exhausted a
nd then they will pull in what is required to figure it out.
