ADM100 Lesson: Performing Data Archiving
choosing Management (after you have maintained an appropriate archiving
object on the initial screen of transaction SARA), you can display a short
log file of an archiving run from transaction SARA.
Choose the Job Overview buttonontheinitialscreenoftransactionSARAto
show which jobs have been scheduled and monitor their status. You may
want to display the job log or the spool list created.
Then go back to transaction SARA and choose the Management button
(if necessary, first maintain the archiving object entry). On the resulting
screen, open the tree structure to the completely written archive file. Select
this archive file and choose Spool List. The system displays a list of the
statistics for the written data objects.
Then return to transaction SARA and choose the Delete button to schedule
the delete program for work items. On the following screen, choose Archive
Selection to select the archive that you have just created, and schedule
the run with the start time Immediate and without changing the spool
parameters (by choosing Spool Parameters → Continue). If appropriate,
pointoutthatthedeleteprogramisnowexecutedunderyourownuser
name. Choose Execute. Finally, return to the job overview and display the
relevant logs for this job after it has been successfully executed.
You can optionally also return to the initial screen of transaction SARA and
choose the Management button, and then expand the tree structure on the
next screen. Select the executed archiving run and choose Storage System.
You obtain an overview that shows, for example, that the delete program
has already completed its run, the file has not yet been stored in a storage
system, and that the archive file can be accessed.
In addition, there is a specific data archiving monitor (monitor “Data
Archiving” in the monitor set “SAP CCMS Monitor Templates”) in
the CCMS monitor sets (transaction RZ20). It is intended for system
administrators, so that they can monitor archiving runs in their familiar
environment, the CCMS monitor. You can use the Data Archiving monitor
to obtain an overview of the archiving objects in the system for which
there are already runs. You can use the cross-archiving object Customizing
to activate or deactivate it.
The data archiving monitor in transaction RZ20 is available as of SAP Basis
4.6. You can optionally display this monitor. You can find it in transaction
RZ20 under SAP CCMS Monitor Templates → Data Archiving.
