Hello,

Clearly the SAPUP is trying to start the instance number 00. It doesn't help if you start the instance with number 01.

Please be advised that in phase STARTSAP_TRANS, the shadow instance will no longer be used. if the instance number 01 is for shadow instance, please do NOT try to start it.

You can start the production instance 00, then check the trace file of dispatcher and work process. You should be find the errors why the isntance can't be started.

Regards,

Joe
