Low performance in Validation & Syndication

[Former Member]

Dear Experts,

We find the system (MDM 7.1) to be very slow and very frequently the system hangs when we try to validate a bunch of records exceeding 50 and also when we try to Trigger the Workflow the amount of time taken for the same number of records in the Production System is very slow.

Currently the process is completed by opening another session and do the same process and force close the earlier session.

Is there any way to enhance this situation and increase the speed

The total Master Data content is about 2 lakhs and we use SAP MDM 7.1 SP05

Thanks,

JK

Hi Jai,

It seems you are using MDM intensive design.

You can use the following parameters in sap mdm 7.1 to improve it productivity.

Check some parameters in your mds.ini file:

"Client Ping Timeout Minutes" -

Number. Causes MDM Data Manager to send a

ping to the Master Data Server after the specified

number of minutes of inactivity. Use to keep the

socket connection active on networks where inactive

sockets are killed by the system. Default is 0 (no

pings). See also Inactive Client Timeout.

"Inactive Client Timeout Minutes" -

Number. Minutes of inactivity to allow from a client

(MDM application, API, service, etc.) before the

Master Data Server starts sending ping packets to

the client. Used to clean up dead connections on

networks which kill inactive sockets. If the

connection is alive, the pings succeed and nothing

else happens. If the connection is dead, the ping

attempts ultimately fail and the network informs the

Master Data Server that the connection is dead.

Default is 0 (disabled). See also Client Ping

Timeout Minutes.

and

"Multi-threaded Matching" -

True/False. Whether to enable multi-threading for

record matching tasks. Maximum number of threads

is governed by the Max Threads Per

Operation parameter.

For further details please go through http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nwmdm71/helpdata/en/4b/71608566ae3260e10000000a42189b/content.htm

Also at the data model level you can do following:

Enable sort index to Normal for those fields.

Remove unwanted fields.

If you are using EP or some other user interface,try to validate at the client side itself for some of the validations,this could help in decreasing load on MDM.

Also go through this very useful guide which require SMP login.

This link gives various sap notes regarding performance optimization:

Hope this helps.

Also there is a limit to number of concurrent usages thick clients in a network.

Experts please comment on this.

Thanks,
