Hi,

Please check your /etc/hosts file for correct host entry of your sap servers.

Also could you provide startup log of the instance... (startsap_<instancename>.log)

Thx Rajesh for prompt responce..

Hi,

sapp3p02:p3padm 35> stopsap r3 d01

Can you try to start and stop with below commands:

# stopsap r3 D01 <hostname>
For example: # stopsap r3 D01 sapp3p02

and 

# startsap r3 D01 <hostname>
For example: # startsap r3 D01 sapp3p02

Make sure that host entry for sapp3p02 is added in your /etc/hosts file.

please post the output of startsap.log after above commands.

Just for my knowledge, is this clustered system ?

In above command you should use same "hostname" which you have provided during installation of Dialog Instance...

Regards.

Hi,

Yes,cluster is implemented.

sapp3p02:p3padm 23> startsap r3 d01 sapp3p02
usage: grep [-E|-F] [-c|-l|-q] [-bhinsvwx] pattern [file...]
 Warning: Could not found virtuell host in ifconfig list
Wrong argument(s)
Usage: startsap [db|r3|j2ee|ccms|all|check] [<instance>] [<virtual hostname>]
       Specify instance if you have installed multiple
       instances of the same system on one host.

sapp3p02:p3padm 25> stopsap r3 d01 sapp3p02
 Warning: Could not found virtuell host in ifconfig list
Wrong argument(s)
Usage: stopsap [r3|j2ee|all|check|ccms] [<instance>] [<virtual hostname>]
       Specify instance if you have installed multiple
       instances of the same system on one host.
       Example: stopsap r3 DVEBMGS00 [cic11]

still the same error.

startsap logs are not updating.They are the same as posted above.

/etc/hosts have the entry.

Hi,

Can you post the /etc/hosts file contents from both working and non-working system ?

(from Message server and DI system)

For your information "Virtual hostname" is the hostname which is assigned to the cluster package. So also check all required mount points are actually mounted on DI host.

1. Check the value of SAPLOCALHOST = <VIRTUAL_HOSTNAME> in <SID>_D01_<VIRTUAL_HOSTNAME> profile.

2. Check if the same VIRTUAL_HOSTNAME entry present in /etc/hosts on DI system.

Is there any changes made in Network Configuration of DI system ? I mean IP address or something...

Also check the communication between DI system and Message Server (SAP) system.

I suspect, there may be some network configuration related issue...

Hi,

Its solved...

the instance's work,data,log directories were pointing to other host.

Thanks Rajesh,Mark
