A Background job in one of the step delays due to awaiting for Gateway

Former Member

Hi,

We have the month-end jobs executing in our Production systems every last week of month

It was observed that, one BGD job took 30-45 mins delay to finish.

- In one of the steps, there is Parallel processing with 56 DIA work processes across 4 Application servers out of 6.

- It was observed that all these 56 processes were showing status ON HOLD (Reason RFC) when we checked.

- I went to the BGD job process (sm51) to see if the job is executing

- I saw the message - further awaiting for Gateway XXXX (Prod server)

- I checked in SM59 and all RFCs were OK

- Even in SMGW everything was OK

Please help me to find what exactly is the reason for the delays due to Gateways

Thanks & Regards,

Sameer

Hi !

If 56 processes were showing status ON HOLD (Reason RFC), this is not RFC problem. wps are waiting for something before further processing. Check the wp trace ... might be helpful in finding program name.

Hi Ashish,

The BGD job running on one of the work process indicated - "Waiting for Gateway XXXX (Prod system)"

Here when I checked the 56 DIA work processes, it indicated - ON HOLD & Status - RFC.

I need to know more on the Gateway mechanisim in this. Hope the problem was in the gateway connection for a temporary proceess

Else the system was OK. No improper functioning was observed.

Need to explore more on this.
