START Profile could not be activated

[Former Member]

Hello,

I had a SAP ECC6 EhP4 system installed on Windows Failover Cluster, with ASCS instance and Central Instance on the first node and the dialog instance and the second node.

I have upgraded my system to ECC6 EhP7 / NW 7.40.

SUM porcess has merged Central instance profile with Start profile.

It seems that it didn't do it for dialog instance.

I always have a start profile and an instance profile for dialog instance.

Now, when importing profiles from RZ10, I have this issue :

Log for the import of profiles

Start profile \\FRDGRHD39SAP\sapmnt\D39\SYS\profile\START_D01_FRDGRHD39A02

Could not be activated

Can you help me?

Hi Chris,

We had exactly the same issue after updating our SAP ERP 6.0 EHP4 systems to SAP ERP 6.0 EHP7.

Please have a look at SAP note 1528297. It describes the merge of START- and instance profile and adaption of the service definition for (A)SCS instances, but it worked for our standalone dialog instances as well. After a restart of the dialog instance with the changed profile / service definition the error during the import of the profiles in RZ10 didn't come up again.

Best regards

Arno

One question.

While upgrading the system did you select the option "Update Dialog Instances" in the configuration phase ?

Hi,

    try to import the start profile from Dialoge instance or both cluster Nodes and activate it.

or you can see note  1528297 - Merge start profile with instance profile.

Hello,

in new versions Start profile is not used anymore. There should exist only default profile, which is applied always as first during the system start. After this, the instance profile is applied for each instance.

The path for your profile should probably be /usr/sap/D39/SYS/profile (as Deepanshu wrote). But it could differ since your message is telling this path: \\FRDGRHD39SAP\sapmnt\D39\SYS\profile\START_D01_FRDGRHD39A02

Anyway, I think there is no start profile anymore, so it could not be activated.

Kind regards

Hello,

/usr/sap/D39/SYS/profile is the same as \\FRDGRHD39SAP\sapmnt\D39\SYS\profile.

I tried to merge both instance and start profile and to delete start profile file but when importing in RZ10, it tries to find START profile and couldn't....

Hello

In RZ10, in the profile window press F4 , select the start profile, then in the "Edit profile" underneath select "Administration data" and "change".

Under Administration data" >> "Activation in operating system" file Check the path of the start profile and if it's wrong - fix it.

I still think there should be any start profile anymore in your version... Release Notes - Profile Parameters in the Application Server - What's New in SAP NetWeaver 7.4 (Rele...

Hello,

I can't see start profile anymore in RZ10, only DEFAULT and instances profile (CI and DI)

Regards

[Former Member]

Hello,

I agree about that. It seems that SUM process merged profiles only for CI and not for DI.

Hi

Have you do the import profile on both cluster Nodes?

Regards

Hello,

profile files are on a shared directory.

Regards

[Sriram2009]

Hi chri

Kindly check the follows

1. In both Cluster nodes SAP instance are on?

2. In fail over cluster resources are online?

3. In both cluster node profiles are imported by using transaction Code RZ10 ?

Hi,

yes, SAP instance are on in both cluster node.

Fail over cluster resources are online.

Do I need to switch resources to second node to import profiles whereas profile files are on shared directory?

Regards

[Sriram2009]

Hi

Yes you can do that.
