CPS - bespoke job to copy Job file to OS archive location

June 28, 2013, 6:18 am
$
0
0

We are currently trying to find the best method to take a Job file (say the XML file from the previous Job in a chain) and copy/write that file to a user-specified OS location.

 

We have a local Platform Agent for OS interaction and assume this will be required.

 

However as of yet we are still postulating on how to do this.

If you write a BASH script type Job Definition you can pass in basic parameters (strings, ints, etc.) and write these to an OS file; but you cannot pass a FILE type parameter and write that to the OS.

 

Our next thought is the RedwoodScipt Class set to see if there is a function out there for this purpose; but then this would have to be a Platform Agent related one we guess.

 

Has anyone written a similar type of script for copying files from the Application layer to an OS location?

Hi All,

 

While I try to delete a job definition or a job chain in CPS, it throws an error saying REPLY EXPRESSION MISSING. I've currently been using M33.74 build. I would like to know what expression has to be defined and how I can overcome this issue.

 

 

 

Thanks,

getExpectedRunTime

Hello,

 

I select jobs from database and want to display their ExpectedRunTime in a script.

 

it = jcsSession.executeObjectQuery("select j.* from Job j where j.Description like '%Test%' order by j.Description asc");

 

while(it.hasNext()) {

      Job j = (Job) it.next();

      jcsOut.println("Job: " + j.getDescription());

      jcsOut.println("Time: " + j.ForecastJob().getExpectedRunTime());

}

 

But it doesn't work. The jobs will be listed if I remark the last line.

How can I display the ExpectedRunTime of the jobs?

 

Best regards,

Dana Ullrich

Anny sugestion, what could cause this ? Sounds for me like CPS cannot access as the resource ( job definition ) is locked in SAP ?

Hostname change of process server

Hello,

Due to a change of our HOSTNAME of process server (SAP), jobs still in status "Scheduled" and never pass to status "Running".

I did installation of SAP CPS Redwood on the new server and run redwood command line :

RS> startup <scheduler> local


In Redwood Explorer, the job “START RFC agent for instance” is in status “running”.

When I submit SAP Jobs they put in status “Scheduled” and don’t go to status running. My jobs still in status "scheduled"
with operator message : "RFC Agent still in starting phase, job is delayed 1 minute"

 

Version of SAP CPS Redwood :  7.0.4.1 SP1

 

When I execute on the process server (Unix) the command line

$ ./redwood.lsb status

it says :

Scheduler SYSJCS.CPSD11 has status: RUNNING

 

Any Idea for this issue ?

Thanks !

Job scheduling on Java only SAP instance

Hi,

our service provider plans to move the productive CPS instance to a new hardware.

On this new box, te CPS java instance would reside standalone.

 

Up to now , we were using an SAP ABAB+ OS process server on the existing HW to schedule and FTP reports of the CPS instance.

If we move it to a new box, would we need to set up an ABAP Stack in parallel to get a SAP process server ?

Any suggestions how we could run reports in this CPS standalone environment ?

 

Thanks a lot in advance

SAP CPS - 1 Java server node

Redwood recommend 1 Java server node for running CPS on

However you lose the extra mitigation for failure of a node that you'd get by having 2 (or more)

 

Has anyone got more than 1 server node on NetWeaver AS Java running SAP CPS on top?

 

NB Looking at recent documents I wonder if recommendations have changed to support multi-node installations more?

Hi Everyone,

 

There is a program which runs in SAP triggered by Cronacle. Program generates two spools in SAP, one is for a team to send the PDF file and the other is for the report spool. Spool is not getting returned to Cronacle. Spool flag is set to yes in the parameters. Is there any configuration which can be made in Cronacle or SAP so that the report spool can be returned to Cronacle. For all other jobs spool is visible in Cronacle.

 

Thanks in advance for the help.

SAP CPS - restricting who runs System jobs

In a relatively advanced security model for CPS we have come across an interesting issue.

 

It seems that even with very restricted (View only) privileges assigned to a user, they still have access to submit jobs to the System queue.

 

This is something we want to prevent View-Only users doing (they will just run reports & have visibility).

 

Has anyone come across this issue?

Could not send alert to - Alerting Module

Hello,

 

We are currently using the alerting module to monitor our jobs.

 

We have a basic setup

 

For some reason we always get an OP message "Could not send alert to [emailTXTMSG@company.com]. All this address contains is a distribution list of cell numbers with wireless provider extensions on the end so you can send out through email and receive as a txt message. We get the alert but what ends up happening is the email gateway continues to resend the alert unless we go in a delete the job that failed. The other alert sends out correctly.

 

Any ideas?

 

Thanks.

Hello,

 

with j.getRunStart().getUTCMilliSecs() I get the starttime of a job with date, time and timezone.

 

I only need the time and timezone. But I want to calculate with the starttime of the job, so "DateTimeZone.formatDuration" is not an option.

How I can get the starttime of a job in format "hh:mm:ss timezone" but not as string.

CPS and x.509 Certificate Logon

Hi,

 

we are using the integrated version M33.85-65736 on NW 731 SPS7 and we have set up this AS Java to accept certificate logon. It works without a problem with NWA but unfortunately we need to enter the username and password for the scheduler although we are already logged in into the AS Java.

 

The same applies to another system where there are no certificates. If you log on to NWA you still need to authenticate again if you want to access the scheduler.

 

I checked the installation and security guides but I couldn't find anything.

 

Is this behaviour "by design" or are there configuration settings that need to be changed?

 

Regards

Andreas

Recently i came across an issue where job failed with the error - " Failed to create the job in the SAP system".

 

Below is the log :

Failed to create the job in the SAP system

Heartbeat job failed

August 21, 2013, 8:00 pm

Hi Gurus,

 

I was importing an job into Redwood. During the import, I suspected, that I have given wrong parameter so I killed this import job. After this, something happened and all the jobs for that Production server started failing and we started getting alerts.

 

The log for the failed jobs read as

 

Socket receive error

OS-10054: An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host.

unable to connect to localhost port 21848; error -1

read  instead of OK  from server

Socket creation error: host=null port=152920

 

The Heartbeat job had also got cancelled.

 

Upon investigation, it was discovered that Redwood dropped its connection with the SAP system's DB. Holding the Redwood queue and re-starting the listener service brought everything to normal

 

My doubt over here is that can Redwood connection to SAP DB take a drop if an import job is killed?

 

My understanding is that killing an running job is killing and running SQL statement which is fetching data from the same (Redwood's) Oracle DB or other (SAP system's) Oracle DB. And killing such an SQL MAY result in data corruption or data inconsistency; but definitely not a connection drop! Though we are not considering the rollback and commit concept over here

 

Can anyone please share their experiences on this

 

R.../-
