Dispatcher in Windows OS

[Former Member]

Hi,

How to stop only SAP Dispatcher in MS Windows Server without restarting SAP server. I did using disp+work; but this didn't worked.

Appreciate & points for any hint/answer.

Hi Buzz:

You can't stop the dispatcher without killing the whole SAP instance; the dispatcher controls and monitors every SAP workprocess in a SAP system. If you want to stop the dispatcher manually you must first find the PID then you need to kill him manually from Task manager (NOT RECOMMENDED).

I will suggest restarting the SAP instance in order to stop the dispatcher process.

Hope this helps!

Hey Buzz:

You can also try to read the informational statistics from the dispatcher using the DPMON program located under /exe/run directory.
