Autostart of SAPMMC following server restart

[former_member183044]

Hi all,

We are making some changes in our BLADE server. The management is planning to make the Development server and Quality server to "AUTOSTART" after the server restarting. For that i searched and found the following steps.

• Our sap hostname has set to start automatically in services.
• Add one more parameter in START profile and ADD the parameter as Autostart=1

Is there are any other points i have to take care about ? Or is this enough ??

Regards

Hello,

If by "Our sap hostname has set to start automatically in services" you mean that the sapstartsrv process (or SAP<SID>_<InstanceNumber> Service, on Windows) will be automatically started when the OS boots, that would be enough.

Just ensure that the database is started before SAP.

Otherwise, SAP will start and stop right away.

Hi Isaias,

The "start type" of the service in services SAP<SID>_00 is "AUTOMATIC". When the OS reboots, will the SAP MMC will automatically restart ?

Hello Praveen,

Please ensure that the parameter "Autostart=1" should not be the last line in the start profile

Hi Praveen,

Just create a batch file with

startsap.exe name=XXX nr=00 SAPDIAHOST=xxxx.xx.xxxx  and similar for stopsap and update the scripts in GPEDIT screen as shown below..

Done.

Dear Praveen,

As Services are on Auto start mode in Services.msc, so AUTOSTART=1 parameter should be enough to bring SAP instance automatic up.

Notice the correct parameter is "Autostart = 1" (it is case sensitive ).

Hi Praveen.

You can create the .bat or .cmd file, On windows OS create a schedule task assign the bat file after start the system.

command "\usr\sap\SID\DEVXXXX\exe\startsap name=SID nr=XX SAPDIAHOST=(SAP hostname)
