Profile Maintenance (SAP Library - Computing Center Management System (BC-CCM))

Profile Maintenance

Use

You can frequently make changes to system profiles for non-productive systems. You will rarely need to make changes to system profiles for productive SAP Systems. In either case, you should use the CCMS profile maintenance tool to maintain profiles.

The profile maintenance tool has the following advantages:

Easy to use

Extensive profile checks

You can test the consistency of (several) individual profiles

You no longer need to edit profiles at operating system level

Changes to profiles are logged

Profile data is maintained in the SAP database (ensuring security and consistency)

Provision of basic data for operation mode switching

You should no longer edit profiles at operating system level using an editor. It only makes sense to do this if the SAP System cannot be started in any other way.

Integration

You can maintain profiles using either basic or extended maintenance.

The basic maintenance option displays general data on the profile and the parameters for the buffer sizes, number of work processes and the swap requirement.

Extended profile maintenance displays all individual parameter values for the profile.

Detailed documentation is available for each parameter contained in the profile. To display this, position the cursor on the parameter and choose F1.

Prerequisites

To use the profile maintenance tool, assign authorization values to authorization object S_RZL_ADM (Computing Center Management System Administration), according to the editing mode that you require:

Editing Mode

Value of Activity Field of
Authorization Object S_RZL_ADM

Edit and display profiles

01, 03

Display profiles

03

Profiles on disk must then be read into the SAP System so that standard maintenance procedures can be executed.
