Starting up two Instances at a time from SAP MMC

[former_member201054]

Hi ,

In our scenario I have installed two instance(DEV& QTY) on a same hostname ,so I have to start the each instance subsequently with the above procedure to up the services.

Is it possible to start the instance QTY also along with the DEV ,instead of again doing "startsap" for QTY separately..I hope my question is clear now.

We can get this scenario on an AIX & Oracle machine by making mentioning the SID's in listener.ora

Any script or settings change to be done somewhere on MSSQL 2005 & Windows 2003 to attain this scenario?

Thanks in advance

Hello Daniel,

this thing can be done in one case

suppose you have taken a reboot of the server,then we can automate the starting of both the servers

This can be done by changing the startup of SAP services from manual to automatic through services.exe.then after an outage both servers will start automatically

Hope it helps

add this line in your SAP Startup Profile:

Autostart=1

make sure you put at least 1 empty line after this. when SAP[SID]_XX service will start, it will read the SAP startup profile. if it finds Autostart, it will start your instance for you.
