add multiple transport request to buffer/queue for transport at same time

[Former Member]

Hi Experts

I have thousands of cofiles and data files copied from another ecc6 system which should be transported to my system( not in the same landscape) . I have copied the cofiles and data files to cofiles and data directory of trans folder.

So to add an transport request I use stms_import ->other request -> add and give the request number.( only 1 at a time). Since there are 1000 request, it is impossible to add one by one. Is there any way in which we can add all the requests to queue for which data file and cofile have been copied at a time? If it is possible then tell how we can add multiple request( 1000 ) at a time to the queue. Does SAP provides this option?

Or in the OS level can we use tp addtobuffer command to add multiple requests? ( if so please tell the exact steps)

Hi Sahad,

Yes if you have access to run tp at os level.. well goahead.

To add all requests to buffer at once

tp addtobuffer All P12

pf=/usr/sap/trans/bin/tp_domain_<SID>.PFL

To import all the requests at once

tp import All P12 client=XXX pf=/usr/sap/trans/bin/tp_domain_<SID>.pfl

Thanks and Regards,

Hi jude

it is showing following error

###

C:\Documents and Settings\co8adm> tp ADDTOBUFFER ALL Co8 pf=D:\usr\sap\trans\bin

\TP_DOMAIN_CO8.PFL

sapparam: sapargv( argc, argv) has not been called.

sapparam(1c): No Profile used.

sapparam: SAPSYSTEMNAME neither in Profile nor in Commandline

This is tp version 370.01.01 (release 700)

Warning: Parameter DBHOST is no longer used.

Warning: Parameter DBNAME is no longer used.

Addtobuffer failed for ALL.

Neither datafile nor cofile exist (cofile may also be corrupted).

tp returncode summary:

TOOLS: Highest return code of single steps was: 0

ERRORS: Highest tp internal error was: 0247

tp finished with return code: 247

meaning:

addtobuffer has problems with data- and/or cofile

##

it is showing either data or cofile is having issue. do you know how to check which data or cofile is corrupted or not?

It is more likely that the data/cofiles don't exist rather than being corrupted.

Check /usr/sap/trans/data (and cofiles) to make sure that they are all there as expected. You might also want to check the authorisations of these files.

Also .... "sapparam: SAPSYSTEMNAME neither in Profile nor in Commandline" ....... Does profile TP_DOMAIN_CO8.PFL have any reference to the system name ?

Dear Sahad ,

For eg Source is P11 & Target system is P12

To add request to buffer.

tp addtobuffer P11KXXXXX P12 pf=/usr/sap/trans/bin/tp_domain_<SID>.PFL

To import the request

tp import P11KXXXXX P12 client=XXX pf=/usr/sap/trans/bin/tp_domain_<SID>.pfl

You can try/test import couple of request Indivisible , after successful import you can create batch file to import rest requests .

Hope this will solve your issue .
