SAP R/3 dispatcher and work processes
Types of work processes:
Message Coordinates the communication between different instances of a single SAP R/3
system. Used for Logon purpose and load balancing
Dispatcher Redirect the request from GUI client to free process
Dialog Interpreting the ABAP code and execute the business logic. Used for interactive
online processing
Batch For Background jobs
Enqueue Single “Central Lock Management Service” that controls the locking mechanism
between the different application servers and the database.
Update Responsible for consistency in asynchronous data changes.
Gateway Used for transport of bigger amount of data between application servers as well as
external (non SAP) systems that communicate with SAP
Which process first connects to the database?
It’s a Message Server process that connects first to the database
Difference between Application server and Central Instance?
Application Server is just a dialog instance.
Central Instance is Dialog instance + Database Instance
What is the difference between clients 000 and 001?
Client 000 is the SAP source client, client 001 exists only on certain installations (e. g. solution Manager).
What is the difference between Sap lock and database lock?
A “SAP lock” is named “enqueue lock”, the enqueue is on a much higher level, e. g. a complete sales
document is locked there whereas in the datbase usually only row locks exist. Since SAP runs on more
database than Oracle (thanx god) one needed to have a mechanism, that is database independent and on a
higher level.
What is Access method?
Access method is the way the output device is connected to SAP system. The access method is specified
during the definition
What is the difference between ST02 and ST04 transaction monitoring?
ST02 is used only to monitor the memory related parameters like (buffer hit ratio, roll area, page area ) which
in case on fulfilment will effect the performance of SAP.
ST04 we can completely do the database related monitoring like backup schedules, locks etc.

Stopsap all
Before stopping SAP System
Check status of User/Active Process Or use CCMS ( RZ03) – Control start& stop

List of Active Process : SM50,SM66
Send a system Message : Sm02
Security Management (FAQ)
1. How to transport roles from Production to Development or Sandbox?
Goto PFCG and enter the role which you want to transfer to other system.
Goto utilities>Mass download it will ask the path where to download/save that role on local desktop give the
location and save it.
Next logon to the system where you want that particular role. Go to PFCG> Role > upload.
Give the path where the role is saved. it accepts and generates successfully
2. How to check the missing authorisation for the user not having the option “su53″?
You can use Trace function, ST01, you can trace the user activity and from the log you can see the
authorization missing.
Start an authorization trace using the ST01 transaction and carry out the transaction with a user who has
full authorizations. On the basis of the trace, you can see which authorizations were checked.
3. What is the difference between role and a profile?
Role and profile go hand in hand. Profile is bought in by a role. Role is used as a template, where you can
add Tcodes, reports….. Profile is one which gives the user authorization. When you generate a role, a
profile is automatically created.
4. What is the use of role templates?
User role templates are predefined activity groups in SAP consisting of transactions, reports and web
addresses.
5. What is the difference between single role & composite role?
A role is a container that collects the transaction and generates the associated profile. A composite role is
a container which can collect several different roles.
6. Is it possible to change role template? How?
Yes, we can change a user role template. There are exactly three ways in which we can work with user
role templates
We can use it as they are delivered in sap
We can modify them as per our needs through pfcg
We can create them from scratch.
For all the above specified we have to use pfcg transaction to maintain them.
Please explain the personalization tab within a role.
Personalization is a way to save information that could be common to users, I meant to a user role… E.g.
you can create SAP queries and manage authorizations by user groups. Now this information can be
stored in the personalization tab of the role. (I supposed that it is a way for SAP to address his ambiguity
of its concept of user group and roles: is “usergroup” a grouping of people sharing the same access or is
it the role who is the grouping of people sharing the same access?)
7. How to insert missing authorization? Ways?
su53 is the best transaction with which we can find the missing authorizations.and we can insert those
missing authorization through pfcg.

8. Someone has deleted users in our system, and I am eager to find out who. Is there a table where
this is logged?
Debug or use RSUSR100 to find the info.
Run transaction SUIM and down its Change documents.
9. How can i do a mass delete of the roles without deleting the new roles?
There is a SAP delivered report that you can copy, remove the system type check and run. To do a
landscape with delete, enter the roles to be deleted in a transport, run the delete program or manually
delete and then release the transport and import them into all clients and systems.
It is called: AGR_DELETE_ALL_ACTIVITY_GROUPS.
To used it, you need to tweak/debug & replace the code as it has a check that ensure it is deleting SAP
delivered roles only. Once you get past that little bit, it works well.
10. How to compare the roles where created or defined in two different systems?
For role comparison both the roles must be in the same system, in same client
Transaction code SUIM > Comparison> Roles
If the roles are in different system, then transport the role into one of the system and do comparison. If no
transport connection defined then, you can use the upload and download option in the PFCG
Steps for Role Comparing:
1. Run the tcode SUIM
2. Go To Comparison and select the option of roles
3. Click on Across systems option it will give option to select the sys name under Remote Comparison
there enter the SYS ID between which system you want to do comparison and put the role name in
compare role section then execute it will give you the result.
4. If there is any difference between the tcodes it will b in red color otherwise in yellow.
11. What is the procedure for creating new user which have all features define under SAP* user and
which could allow me to make the configurations?
Creating new user with superuser authorizations.
1. Goto SU01 –
username : sapuser
|–>Create.
2. In default settings, give
:Mr
first name : sap
last name : user
3. Goto next tab,
give initial password :1234
repeat password : 1234
4. Goto profiles.
type sap_all (say enter)
sap_new (say enter)
Then save….
See the message in status bar, (user created successfully)
5. Login with the new user. change the password. now this user contains all superuser authorizations

6/11/2016 SAP BASIS ADMIN Roles & Responsibilities
12. The administrator user cannot be used to log on to the J2EE Engine because it has been locked.
How will you correct the situation?
To correct this situation, I had to use an emergency user account.
SAP* user account has full administrator authorizations, but this account doesn’t have a default password.
It must be specified when account is activated. Once SAP* is activated, no other user can log in to the
system.
Check properties on Config Tool (Edit UME):
ume.superadmin.activated (set ‘true’);
ume.superadmin.password (specify a password).
Restart Application Server.
You have all users locked onto ABAP system. How will you deal with this situation?
Make sure your login/no_automatic_user_sapstar profile value is set to 1.
Log on to host system and connect to database.
Use the following query:
delete sid.USR02 where BNAME=’SAP*’ and MANDT=’xxx’;
Now SAP* user is generated again with default password “pass”.
13. How would you copy all users from DEV to PRD?
Execute transaction SCC8 and select the profile SAP_USER. Then specify target system and schedule
background job. This will export all users from the source system in the form of request.
Now login to the destination system and enter tcode SCC6. Specify the request number generated while
exporting and click on “prepare import”.
You can check logs in SCC3 transaction.
Tablespace Coalesce
select a.tablespace_name, a.file_id, a.block_id, a.blocks,
b.block_id
from dba_free_space a, dba_free_space b
where a.tablespace_name = 'SYSTEM'
and b.tablespace_name = 'SYSTEM'
and a.tablespace_name = b.tablespace_name
and a.file_id = b.file_id
and a.block_id+a.blocks = b.block_id
alter tablespace USERS coalesce;
