hi angel,

Try to re-reg sid_01 service

Please copy sapstartsrv.exe and sapstartsrv.exe.new from CT_RUN

for example \usr\sap\<SID>\SYS\exe\uc\NTAMD64

direcrory to exe folder the service is point to overwrite the exe's

there.

Also delete any sapstartsrv.exe.tmp in exe folder.

If error persists

1. Stop the SAP service

2. Open a command prompt

3. Go to usr\sap\<SID>\exe\run

4. call 'sapstartsrv.exe -t' from the command line

5. Confirm

the dialog window

6. Start the service again

give the above a try .the purpose is sapstartsrv.exe must be the same version and at same level..

good luck

Hi raj,

Dont give virtual hostname, give the physical (normal) hostname for the transport directory.

Hope this help.

Hi Raj,

Yes, Rajesh is true. Your cluster will take care about virtual host..
