SAP ABAP Engine specific configuration steps
Logon as <sid>adm on the primary node on which a Central Instance or the System Central Services have
been installed. The appropriate Serviceguard package should still run on this host in debug mode.
Installation Step: IS1100
For
SAP Central Instance
virtualization, change into the profile directory by typing the alias:
cdpro
In the DEFAULT.PFL change the following entries and replace the hostname with the relocatible name if
you cluster a ci component. For example:
SAPDBHOST = <relocdb>
rdisp/mshost = <relocci>
rdisp/sna_gateway = <relocci>
rdisp/vbname = <relocci>_<SID>_<instnr>
rdisp/btcname = <relocci>_<SID>_<instnr>
rslg/collect_daemon/host = <relocci>
If you don't have Replicated Enqueue:
rdisp/enqname = <relocci>_<SID>_<instnr>
The following parameters are only necessary if an application server is installed on the adoptive node. For
example:
rslg/send_daemon/listen port
rslg/collect_daemon/listen port
rslg/collect_daemon/talk port
Optional Step: IS1110
If you want to use the DB-Reconnect functionality for ABAP Instances:
Add entries to:
• /sapmnt/<SID>/profile/<SID>_<INSTNAME><INR>
• Instance Profiles of all application servers that use DB-Reconnect
For example:
rsdb/reco_trials = 15
rsdb/reco_sleep_time = 60
rsdb/reco_sosw_for_db = off(based on OSS #109036)
rsdb/reco_sync_all_server = on
Installation Step: IS1120
In the instance profile of each clustered
ABAP
instance, two values have to be added to specify the virtual
addressing,
For example in <SID>_DVEBMGS<INSTNR>:
SAPLOCALHOST = <relocci>
SAPLOCALHOSTFULL = <relocci>.<domain>
The parameter SAPLOCALHOSTFULL must be set even if you do not use DNS. In this case you should set it
to the name without the domain name:
SAPLOCALHOSTFULL=<relocci>
The instance profile name is often extended by the hostname. You do not need to change this filename to
include the relocatible hostname. SGeSAP also supports the full instance virtualization of SAPWAS 6.40
and beyond. The startsap mechanism can then be called by specifying the instance's virtual IP address. For
this case, it is required to use the virtual IP addressing in the filenames of the instance profile and instance
start profile. All references to the instance profiles that occur in the start profile need to be changed to include
the virtual IP address instance profile filename.
