How to I remove packages from S.A.I.N.T.

[maryjane_steele2]

I have unwanted packages loaded into S.A.I.N.T. that need to be removed. I can't find the dissasembled file names so that they can be removed.

That might work for some of them, but some of the packages are way before my time and I have no clue if they are even available. I am flumoxed why this is so difficult in SAINT, because I can easily find the corresponding *.PAT files in SPAM.

None of the solutions are working. How do I find the name of the corresponding *.PAT file in EPS/IN.

You could always re-download the .car files again and extract them to a local directory. That would give you the .pat filenames.

Hello,

Could you please check the entries for these pakages at database level in table <schema>.pat01 and <schema>.pat03? If the entries are there then remove them and saint status should come back to normal.

Hope this helps. Let us know.

To remove entries from the internal SAINT Queue, Use the function module (transaction SE37) OCS_RESET_QUEUE. Execute it with parameters IV_TOOL=SAINT, IV_FORCE=X.

To remove entries from the TMS buffer, execute the following command (change directory to /usr/sap/trans/bin first),

tp delfrombuffer SAPKXXXXX pf=/usr/sap/trans/bin/TP_DOMAIN_.PFL

Before restarting the Support Package import, ensure that youu2019ve removed all files from \usr\sap\trans\tmp and make sure there is no other TP process or R3trans process running in the system at Operating system level.

Hope this will help....

Thanks

That did not work. I ran the function module and did the DELFROMBUFFER. The DELFROMBUFFER states there is not package with that name loaded but when I go into SAINT, the packages are still in queue.

try to delete them from the 'inbox'

Menu 'environment -> electronic parcel service -> Goto -> Inbox'. Find the package and delete it. It shouldn't be visible in the saint (or spam) queue afterwards

I don't think its possible.
