Hi

Did someone/you made any chnages to the startup profiles for the system?

If Yes, Try starting the system with the backed up start up profile in the folder /usr/sap/<SID>/SYS/profile/START_DVEBMGS<INST_NO>_<HOSTNAME>.BAK.

Try renaming the current start up profile to some profile(like- .BAK123) and then rename the backed up profile to START_DVEBMGS<INST_NO>_<HOSTNAME>

Looks like a part of the startup profile is wrong.

Hope that helps.

Thanks

Hi Abhi,

Somebody has changed the parameters in startup fprofile. I changed it and the SAP is up and running. Thanks very much for the immediate response .

Thanks and Regards

Check the files dev_disp and especially dev_w0 for errors. Those are the workprocess tracefiles.

Hi Shylendra,

Just can't believe this comes from a default installation. It looks like you have entries in your start profile that want to produce links to the real executables (ln -s) and call them in order to have more meaningful entries in process tables. If so I would expect these entries to be preceded by removal of the link. But I do not see anything like this in the sapstart.log.

A typical sequence then would look like

[code]Execute_08 = local /usr/bin/rm -f $(_MS)

Execute_09 = local /usr/bin/ln -s -f $(DIR_EXECUTABLE)/msg_server$(FT_EXE) $(_MS)

Start_Program_01 = local $(_MS) pf=$(_PF)[/code]

If the rm entry is missing, the ln -s will fail.

But this is not done in iSeries installations to my knowledge. Therefore, I am a bit concerned about the status of your installation. Do you have some details on the installation?

Regards,

Thomas
