Transport Requests are not visible after QAS Refresh

[Former Member]

Hi All Experts,

We just refreshed our QAS system from our Production system. This refresh was done using Database Copy. Now we want to apply ALL the transport request to the "REFRESHED QAS" which went to QAS but never went to Production. After the refresh, we reconfigured the STMS on QAS. Now when we are going into STMS to find those requests, we cannot find them and hence not able to apply them to the refreshed QAS.

Kindly suggest.

Thanks,

We manually added the requests through STMS

Thatz the same as doing via command line ... but you can use a script if you would have done the above.

Hi NK,

This should have been taken care off before the actual refresh, as the buffer of the system also gets refreshed.

You should have taken a dump from the import history of your OLD QAS system or from the table TPLOG, before you did the refresh.

Only thing you can do now is to check the ALOG, ULOG and SLOG files in details but this is cumbersome.

Hi Dibya,

I did take a dump of all the requests that were in QAS and that were not in PRD through the import history before the refresh. We have the list of all the transport requests that we have to apply. But, how, this is what we need to know.

We tried tp connect <our refreshed QAS sys> and this is what we get -

This is tp version 340.16.03 (release 640, unicode enabled)

System <refreshed qas> is not defined in TPSETTINGS

ERROR: System <refreshed QAS> is not defined in TPSETTINGS

tp returncode summary:

TOOLS: Highest return code of single steps was: 0

ERRORS: Highest tp internal error was: 0208

tp finished with return code: 208

meaning:

error in transportprofil (param missing, unknown,...)

Kindly suggest.

Hi,

If you have the list of transport request then create a small shell script (unix) or command file with the entries as below (you can do it easily in excel and save as script file).

tp ADDTOBUFFER <transport request #> <SID> pf=TP_DOMAIN_<SID>.PFL

Then refresh queue in STMS.

And if connection to a database is a problem - check with R3trans -d.
