Hi all i have got the solution.

The answer is we need to all the server ip address And server host name in C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\host file in all systems in which sap bi client software is installed.

I have found solution for this in the below link.

Great job. I had the same issue and solved by adding the IP to host file.

Thanks a lot.

Hello

If you know the RFC which is being used call Tx SM59 and modify it under Technical Settings.

As you are using the 730 GUI check this:

Yes,

i have gone through T-code: SM59 we have checked RFC Host name is already mentioned.

But still i'm getting the error while executing T-code: RRMX in excel 2003.

SAP_CMINIT3 : rc=20 > Connect to SAP gateway failed

Connect_PM  GWHOST=nfclbid, GWSERV=sapgw00, SYSNR=00

hostname 'nfclbid' unknown

This seems pretty strait forward... either update your hosts file or use the correct hostname in your RFC
