Default Profile: This is where you can define your global settings for each system.

For security, you can put in your global params like password length etc and it will be cascaded out to all clients (exception see instance profile).

Instance Profile: You have an instance profile for each instance you have on a system. The params set in the default profile are inherited unless you log on to an instance where the instance profile differs from the default profile. If the params are blank then it inherits from the default profile.

Start Profile: This controls the processes & services that run when SAP is started.When you start an SAP instance on a host, the start profile defines which SAP services are started (message server, dialog, gateway or enqueue process.

For instance profile check this thread:

Find the profiles in the below path:

\usr\sap\<SID>\SYS\profile.

Use tcode rz10 to display/edit profiles in sap.

Hi Siva,

Start Profile

When you start an SAP instance on a host, the start profile defines which SAP services are started (message server, dialog, gateway or enqueue process.

Default Profile

If you want to assign the same parameter value for all application servers (such as the name of the database host, or the host on which the message server is running), enter it in the default profile. In general, you can list any parameter you like here.

Instance Profile

Instance profiles provide an application server with additional configuration parameters to complement the settings values from the default profile. Typically, these parameter settings adapt the instance according to the desired resources. They also define the available instance resources (main memory, shared memory, roll memory and so on), and how to allocate memory to the SAP application buffers.
