Error while configuring logon load balancing

[Former Member]

Hi,

I am trring to configure logon load balancing in cluster environment.

I had created the logon group using T-Code SMLG and assigned the message server to logon group.

I am using SAP GUI 720.

In the front end system, i had added the host file entry as well as added u201Csapma<SID> 3600/tcpu201D as my CI instance number is 00.

I had created u201Csapmsg.iniu201D and put the entries as below based on sapnote 38119

Message Server

System ID 1>=<Name or IP address of message server 1>

Ex: <SID>=x.x.x.x

<SID>=x.x.x.x

Message Server Description

<System ID 1>=<Description of message server 1>

Ex: <SID>=CI

But while selecting u201CGroup/Server Selectionu201D I am getting error u201CError: partner x.x.x.x:sapms<SID> not reached u201C.

On the logon pad I had given the following information:

Description: PRD

System ID: <SID>

Message Server: IP address of CI package

I am not able to find the exact reason of the error and how to proceed to resolve the error.

Hi, at the end of the windows services file, make sure you have a carriage return (blank line). I had a similar issue couple month ago and I spend a lot of time to get this solved.

Hi,

Instead >telnet CI-IP 3601 working fine.
Is there any place where i can change the message server port number from 3601 to 3600.

I think, you need to configure "sapms<SID> 3601/tcp" in your windows client system's "C:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\services" file.

In short use 3601 as message server port for SAP Gui configuration.

Hi Marc ,

Message server internal port number is 3901

rdisp/msserv_internal = 3901

Well while i telnet the particular port that is 3601, it's telneting, but while i tried to telnet sapms<SID>, i found it's not telneting.

It through error:

>telnet 192.168.0.158 sapmsKBP

Connecting To 192.168.0.158...Could not open connection to the host, on port sapmsKBP: Connect failed

Did you enter sapma<SID> or sapms<SID> to the services file on the Windows machine?

Hi Markus ,

Thanks for your response

It was a spelling mistake; in fact I had maintained " sapms<SID>" in the service file on windows machine.

Hi. Are you able to telnet you MS server port from your PC ?

Try : telnet IP-sever 3600

telnet IP-sever sapmsSID

Regards.

Hi Dusmanta,

Have u checked telnet command as per Sergo Beradzeht 's mail i.e.

at command prompt, type the command as follows

c:\> telnet <IP-Address of CI server or Message server> 3600

if the output showed "waiting ........." theat means port 3600 might be blocked in firewall from ur desktop/laptop to Message server.

Hi serog,

Well i had tried to login to the particular port that is 3600 through telnet, what i found instade of 3600 i was able to port 3601.

>telnet CI-IP 3600 not working

Instead >telnet CI-IP 3601 working fine.

Is there any place where i can change the message server port number from 3601 to 3600.

At profile level,

message server port is defined via rdisp/msserv = sapms<SID>, where it is typically 36xx (xx = instance no)

in /etc/services, you have:

sapms<SID> 36xx/tcp
