Delete program in Archiving

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

As we are planning to do SAP Archiving project, we are doing some dummy archiving. I have done the delete program with single material using archiving object MM_MATNR. and created the archive files also. Now I want to delete it but it is not deleting the material. I checked the Background job log, and it is showing the bellow error:

15.06.2014 11:03:53 Job started	00	516	S
15.06.2014 11:03:53 Step 001 started (program MMREO110N, variant HARI_MATERIAL, user ID VTGBASIS)	00	550	S
15.06.2014 11:03:53 Start of data processing	KEN_01	004	S
15.06.2014 11:03:53 Operating system message: No such file or directory	BA	161	S
15.06.2014 11:03:53 Job finished	00	517	S

But the directory is remain same in ARCHIVE_GLOBAL_PATH variable. How to solve these strange issues?

Hi Sriram,

Our Platform: OS/400, DB2

The Archive Link is: /QNTC/172.16.31.10/Asad/<FILENAME>

where \\172.16.31.10\Asad is windows based share.

See the below image:

Where write has been finished.

But Delete job not finished while.

the job log for delete program:

15.06.2014 11:03:53 Job started	00	516	S

Hi Asad

Thanks for you info

Deletion job has to run in CI not in any other application server (DI). at the time of releasing  the deletion job you have to define the CI system name. because DI & CI 'Dir_Global' path are different(OS400 & Windows).

Hi Sriram,

We have only one application server. No more DI.

Hi Asad,

Can you specify the exchange directory specified under Archive global path.

Ensure that this path is shared across all the application servers with right permission.

As a double check whether physical file exists with the name created during write phase in the path specified under Archive_global_path.

Secondly look out for below path exists with right permission

The Archive Link is: /QNTC/172.16.31.10/Asad/<FILENAME>

where \\172.16.31.10\Asad is windows based share.

Hope this helps.

Hi Deepak,

The Archive_global_path is

/QNTC/172.16.31.10/Asad/<FILENAME>

it is have full permission. Cause i can create archive files in time of write job.

Hi Asad,

Thanks for the information.

Have you cross checked whether the files which you have written already exists under the path

/QNTC/172.16.31.10/Asad/<FILENAME>

Hope this helps.
