Hi Reddy,

Call STMS t-code. Then, click on "Import Overview" (F5). Select the system that you want to see on list and click on "Goto-> tp Parameters". So, you will see "TRANSDIR" parameter on the list. By doing so, you can decide whether it is a local transport directory or common transport directory.

Hi Reddy,

simple.. go to AL11 transaction and check.

Other than transport directory info, u get some many other important information also.

Hi Reddy,

Ok, your trans directory is "/usr/sap/trans/". So, can you see same files by using AL11 under trans directory under all application servers? If all the files are same (more than likely), it is a shared folder.

Hi Reddy,

if your your intention is to know the systems using the trans directory do this

cd /usr/sap/trans/buffer

ls -lrt

you will find the systems using this directory.

Login to sun OS in each of the 3 systems and run a command

df -k /usr/sap/trans

The output of the command should tell you whether it is local or shared.

Hello Reddy,

Honestly i don't think its possible to view information about NFS mounts from SAP.

I think this information can be viewed only from the OS level.

If you are able to view it through SAP, i would be glad to know, please do post that method here in this post.

Siddhesh
