Hi Guys,

we have installed SAP ECC with HA on linux RHEL 5.

Currently the usr/sap/trans is owned by ora<sid>:dba and has 777 permissions.

We are unable to change the owner to <sid>adm:sapsys.

May be because of this we facing issue during EHP4 upgrade.

During prepare phase -->toolimport_main/toolimpd we are getting error.

I have checked SAPEhpi.eco log are below.

EXECUTING /usr/sap/PEP/DVEBMGS02/exe/tp (/usr/sap/PEP/DVEBMGS02/exe/tp) pf=/orac

le/PEP/sapdata1/EHPI/abap/bin/TOOLIMPD.TPP put PEP

This is /usr/sap/PEP/DVEBMGS02/exe/tp version 376.01.20 (release 701, unicode en

abled)

Hi Abhishek,

Can you try with force option

chown -Rf <sid>adm:sapsys /usr/sap/trans

Hi,

Will you please answer to this question.

1) Is your transport domain controller is your Prod system? or Dev System?

Example Case: If your domain controller is on DEV server and /usr/sap/trans is NFS mounted to QA and PRD server, when you try to change ownership of trans directory from QA or PRD you may get error as you stated. In this case you need to login at the OS level of the host in which your domain controller is configured and then give correct ownership and permission.

Hi Abhishek,

Looking into your issue, I would suggest firstly you have to change all permission inside the /usr/sap/trans sub-directories and then follow for /usr/sap/trans.

Please follow below steps to change the ownership and group of your /usr/sap/trans sub directories.

1. Firstly login into OS level in the doman controller system (For Eg. Dev).

2. Go to the current path of /usr/sap/trans

3. From there issue below command to change ownership/Group of all sub-directoris of /usr/sap/trans*

4. So, from the current folder /usr/sap/trans issue below command;

  1. chown -R <SID>adm:sapsys .

(finally end with dot (.). This will change the ownership to <SID>adm and group to sapsys for all of the files and directories in current directory, and all subdirectories (recursively) inside the /usr/sap/trans.

now follow the same for /usr/sap/trans dir. (go to path /usr/sap and follow below commands)

  1. chown -R <SID>adm:sapsys trans

Hope this helps.

cheers,

Hello

This looks like you are trying to change the permission of NFS mount or local file system. Check whether this is a file system or a folder first. If it is a file system ("/usr/sap/trans") then your OS team has to do this.

Thanks & regards
