The secret is follow every step in NOTE 2290622 which will refer you to many many other notes but dont give up! follow and implement the notes and when done run the data collection programs.

Dont miss a step!!!

SPAM stuck in "TP CONNECTED" status

So while importing an OCS package using SPAM the process gets stuck in the TP connected state.

I have seen many suggestions online including to run report RDDNEWPP in SE38 and deleting any entries in table TRBAT using se30

My own solution was to check in /usr/sap/trans/log for information of the error. Which was indicating that a certain file in /usr/sap/trans/tmp was already in use!

So in /usr/sap/trans/tmp check for the file indicated in the logs and rename it then retry...!!!

Virus scan profiles

Useful transactions for managing virus scan profiles are:

/IWFND/VIRUS_SCAN

and

VSCAN

I am still working on this issue and will give an update ASAP.

/usr/sap/trans FULL!!!!!

So the other day I was importing some new support packages using SPAM and the status was not changing. Checking the logs it seems nothing was happening

On checking /usr/sap/trans i realised the file system was 100% used!

Useful tp commands while in the /usr/sap/trans/bin directory

tp check all pf=<transport_profile>

tp clearold all pf=<transport_profile>

Issue in MOPZ (maintenance optimizer)

When creating a new planned maintenance in SOLMAN using MOPZ , the solution is displayed but there is no product version in the dropdown.

This can be solved by migrating the product using transaction LMDB since it is no longer done using SMSY.

BW issues with activation of a table after adding an attribute

So the BW team raised an issue where a table could not be activated after they added an attribute to it.

Important tools to check tables included transactions SE16 ,SE14 , SE11

But turns out the problem was with the temporary tablespace , no more data files could be added so this was done using BRTOOLS to extend the tablespace.
