Application server with instance number<#>already exists on server <server>

[Former Member]

Hi All,

From my quality system SLD, I have removed one of the technical system. Now when I am trying to import the instance of the same Technical system from the SLD of Acceptance system I am able to import the Technical system successfully <B> BUT </B> the related systems are not importing with it. i.e the business systems, installed product, application server, message server details etc. (all the tabs) are empty.

When I am trying to populate these fields by copying the content from Acceptance system I am getting the following errors:

<BR>

1. In <b>Application Servers </b> tab when entering all the details i.e Host name and instance number (same as that of acceptance) the following error is coming:

"Application server with instance number <2 digit number> already exists on server <server name>; enter a different host name or instance number"

2. In <b>Installed Products</b> tab when I am selecting the product names I am getting the following error:

CIM_ERR_ALREADY_EXISTS: Instance already exists: SAP_InstalledSoftwareComponent.Name="<component name>",SoftwareElementID="<ID number>",SoftwareElementState=3,TargetOperatingSystem=0,Version="1.0"

Kindly help me with this problem ASAP.

Hi,

I think you need to import all Business syatems based on that specific technical system.

Otherwise the relationship will not be maintained properly and will errored out.

hi rookie,

"Application server with instance number <2 digit number> already exists on server <server name>; enter a different host name or instance number"

2. In Installed Products tab when I am selecting the product names I am getting the following error:

CIM_ERR_ALREADY_EXISTS: Instance already exists: SAP_InstalledSoftwareComponent.Name="<component name>",SoftwareElementID="<ID number>",SoftwareElementState=3,TargetOperatingSystem=0,Version="1.0"

think objects are still existing in cache.

see that u deleted the business system technical system and products .

if they are already deleted and u are still getting error then SLD is persisitng landscape objects.

can u just try clearing SLD CACHE i know its related to repository and directory.but just try deleting the SLD CACHE in configuartion.

Thanks & Regards,

Hi All,

My first problem i.e. of Application Server is now solved.

I am able to add the port number to my host name but now another following problem is in front of me

In Message Server tab for my Technical system all the follwing fields are empty and inactive:

1. Host Name

2. Message Server Port

3. Description

4. Administration contact

When I am trying to add new logon group a new page is being displayed with the following error:
