Live cache NOT running on MAxDB.

[Former Member]

Gurus:

I just get into SCM recently and only read some docs about SCM.

I believe the SCM I log in has not MaxDB at all. It is running on a SQL exclusively.

Could you tell me how to verify my guess?

Thanks a lot!

hello,

SAP SCM runs on the OLTP database like Oracle MaxDB MSSQL or DB2/4/6

liveCache another database connected to "most" SCM

you can quickly take look at transaction db59 where you will find livecache server and SID of livecache

(if there is one)

you can also test connection to liveCache if you find the liveCache there.

once connection to liveCache works fine you can use transaction LC10 to perform administration tasks.

(eqvivalent of st04 or dbacockpit for OLTP DBs)

You way can be used to find out SCM's DB type. I want to know what is

Thanks!

Hello Christy,

MaxDB is a DB - there is no DBType for MaxDB. As Ivan explained, the SCM system is running with any DB and it is additionally connected to the liveCache (which is an enhanced MaxDB database).

Did you follow Ivan's instructions to check your liveCache?
