Parameters for Controlling R3transLocate this document in the navigation structure

  • filesplit

    Default value: 0

    Possible values: Strings, some of which may be defined or a number

    You can split the data from one transport request into multiple files. This may be necessary, for example, if you are exporting very large transport requests. To split the data, activate the parameterfilesplit. The default value 0 deactivates the new function so that all files that are exported can also be edited with older transport tools.

    The values off, false, and no have the same meaning as the default value 0. If you want to set the parameter to a numeric value other than 0, the export data is split into files of this specified maximum size.

    Note Values between0 and 1048576 (=1 MB) are handled as if they were 1048576, since smaller data sizes are not useful.

    If you enter one of the values on, true, or yes instead of a numeric value, tp assumes that a numeric value was specified that corresponds to 1 GB-1 (2147483647).

    The names of the new files are determined and only depend on the name of the transport request. If the transport request is called C11K904711, for example, then the files are named in the order they were created, as follows: R904711.C11, R904711_0.C11, R904711_1.C11,...,R904711_Z.C11,R904711_00.C11,...,R904711_ZZ.C11. A maximum of 1298 continuation files is possible.

  • language

    Default value: empty text

    Value range: Text

    If this value is specified, it is passed directly to R3trans. If R3trans does not receive a value for the languages to be exported, it exports language-dependent data from all the languages that it can find. If the parameter language is passed, R3trans tries to export the languages specified in this text. Each language is identified by a single letter. You can specify multiple languages by entering a sequence of letters.

  • lsm
    • lsm = master

      The master language is stored for each object in the object directory (table TADIR). This is the language in which the object was created or is maintained. In this mode, the language-specific data in the master language is transported, however, not translated texts. This master language does not have to be contained in the language vector (LANGUAGE).

    • lsm = translation

      Only the translated data is transported in this mode, not however entries in the master language. Only languages contained in the language vector are considered.

    • lsm = nomaster

      As for translation, languages not contained in the language vector are also considered.

    • lsm = vectorandmaster

      All entries belonging to the original language or contained in the language vector are transported.

    Note All the functions mentioned are based on the original language of a text object being defined. This applies for all text parts of the Repository objects. There are exceptions for the remainder objects that are not listed here.
  • r3transoptions

    Default value: Empty string

    Value range: Text

    Possible values: R3trans options

    This parameter lets you use the transport control program tp to pass any R3trans options to R3trans. Since you can specify multiple R3trans options using a transport profile parameter, note the following when using this parameter:

    Procedure for Passing the R3trans Option op_name = op_wert:

    1. First, check if an R3trans option is already set for the target system.
    2. Change to the subdirectory bin of the transport directory and enter the following command:

      tp showparams <TSID> parname=r3transoptions

      <tsid> is the target system name. The output from this command is normally empty. If your transport profile already contains R3trans options, this is the output. (You can ignore warnings or error messages about unknown or invalid parameters.)

    3. Add the output from the above-mentioned command to the new R3trans option (divided by blank space), and use this new value for the transport profile parameter r3transoptions.
    Example Example for the optionsafeandslow=yes

    If we assume the output from the command above returns: rawdocu=no, then the new parameter value would be r3transoptions: rawdocu=no safeandslow=yes

  • r3transpath

    Default value: R3trans

    Value range: Text

    This parameter is used to pass the complete name of the program R3trans to tp. The default value is not a complete path specification. The operating system and the settings of the operating system are used to find the correct value.

    Because all transports are performed by the SAP System user on the operating system level, the default value is correct.
