Deleting an SAP System from the Transport DomainLocate this document in the navigation structure

Caution

Note that the original version of the Transport Management System (TMS) configuration for the entire transport domain is destroyed if you perform one of the following actions:

  • Delete the domain controller from the transport domain
  • Delete the TMS configuration of the domain controller for the transport domain

You can only maintain the transport domain after these actions if you have activated the backup domain controller.

If you have not configured a backup domain controller, you must delete and then rebuild the TMS configuration for all systems.

Procedure

Deleting an SAP System from the Transport Domain

Note

If you delete an SAP system from the transport domain, it is also deleted from the profile of the transport control program. After you have deleted the system, you cannot release or import transport requests in this system.

To delete an SAP system from the transport domain:

  1. Log on to the system functioning as the transport domain controller.
  2. Call transaction STMS.
  3. Choose Start of the navigation path Overview Next navigation step Systems End of the navigation path. The system overview appears.
  4. Position the cursor on the system to be deleted.
  5. Choose Start of the navigation path SAP System Next navigation step Delete End of the navigation path.
  6. Confirm the prompt and distribute the configuration.

The system is deleted from the TMS configuration. This information is distributed to the other systems.

Note

If you cannot delete a system on the transport domain controller, you need to delete the TMS configuration of this system.

This is the case, for example, if:

  • A system deleted from the domain that is replaced by a backup imported later on, functions as member of the domain, although is does not belong to the domain any longer.
  • The TMS configuration was accidentally deleted on the domain controller and no backup domain controller was configured.

Deleting the TMS Configuration for a System

To delete the TMS configuration for a system:

  1. Log on to the relevant SAP system.

  2. Call transaction STMS.

  3. Choose Start of the navigation path Overview Next navigation step Systems End of the navigation path. The system overview appears.

  4. Choose Start of the navigation path Extras Next navigation step Delete TMS Configuration End of the navigation path.

  5. Confirm the prompt.

Note

The information about deleting the TMS configuration for this system is not distributed to other systems.

Result

The TMS is deactivated for systems that either were taken out of the transport domain or for which the TMS configuration was deleted:

  • The RFC connections generated by TMS are deleted.
  • User TMSADM is not deleted.
  • Transport requests or transport objects are not deleted.
  • The transport route configuration is deactivated, but not deleted. (After TMS is reconfigured, you can reactivate and distribute the old transport route configuration.)
  • The settings from the transport profile are deleted for systems deleted from the transport domain. After the deletion in this system, you cannot release or import any transport requests in this system.
