Good Morning Kent,

probably it is a pase executable and you should start the qp2term (call qp2term) as <SID>ADM and execute it in there. What is the kernel version?

Hi,

you can also use following for work process table.

WRKACTJOB SBS(R3_<INST_NR>)

Where INST_NR = instance number.

Hi Kent,

logon at your System i with user <sid>OFR and execute the following program:

CALL QP2TERM

Within this session you can execute the program with the necessary options, i.e. to get the help information:

dpmon -h

Hi,

Might be problem with kernel patch,

apply the latest kernel patch.

Hi Kent,

check if LIBPATH was set correctly (e.g. via calling "export" in qp2term). The /usr/sap/<SID>/SYS/exe/run should be part of it.

Best regards
