Checking Profile FilesLocate this document in the navigation structure

Context

If a profile has been changed, you can perform extensive checks for it. You can check the semantics, syntax, and the parameter names of the profile. The system displays the result of the profile checks as a log that contains either warnings or error messages.

Procedure

  1. Open transaction RZ10 (edit profiles).
  2. You can check single profiles, all profiles of the active instances, or all profiles used in operation modes:
    • Check single profiles:Specify the name and version of the profile. Then choose Start of the navigation path Profile Next navigation step Check End of the navigation path.
    • Check all profiles of the active server:Choose Start of the navigation path Utilities Next navigation step Check All Profiles Next navigation step of Active Servers End of the navigation path.
    • Check all profiles used in operation modes:Choose Start of the navigation path Utilities Next navigation step Check All Profiles Next navigation step of Active Servers End of the navigation path.

    The profile parameters in a profile are divided into classes. For each class, there is a separate check rule. The table below shows these rules and includes an example for each:

    The following checks are made:
