How to start Enqueue Replication Service

[Former Member]

Hi,

I'm setting up Enqueue Replication Service for ABAP.

I've set up the ERS on node 2 based on this documentation:

http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/dc/c20850117946e2968316c96efceb20/frameset.htm

But there's no documentation on how to start the service.

I've tried to use startsap -t r3 -i ERS<SNO> -v "hostname", but it seems there's no startsap program in node 2.

Thanks much.

My last question is above.

Hi,

If you have used virtual hostname to install ERS then you should virtual hostname else use hostname of node2.

Hi,

Here: http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/de/cf853f11ed0617e10000000a114084/content.htm

That guide has hahost as virtual hostname.

But it's using hostname of node 1 to configure the profile.

Assuming you're in windows, the ERS should be started up automatically after start SCS instance.

Please double check if your ERS has been installed correctly as per

Note 804078.

Normally, It's essential to start the replication-server with the commandline-parameter NR=<ENQ> from the start-profile. This forces the replication server to take the same shared memories as the enqueue-server.

Check your ERS start profile..where you can startsap based on ERS start profile.

Check out SAP note for start sequence:

Vincent,

I'm using UNIX, and the ERS is not automatically started.

Hi,

Normally, we run:

> startsap ERS<no> <ERS host>

Can you try start it up manually using sapcontrol ?

i.e /usr/sap/<SID>/ERS<no>/exe/sapcontrol -prot NI_HTTP -nr <no> -function Start

i'm ended up copying the starsap binary to the host 2.

Btw, which profile should you use when you run ERS on node 2?

Is it <SID>_ERS<SNO>_host1 or <SID>_ERS<SNO>_host2?

The command I used is

startsap -t r3 -i ERS11 -v <"host1 or host2"?>

Thanks for your help.
