Unit 2: Starting and Stopping the SAP System ADM100
Use the Update Overview (SM13) to check whether update processes
are terminated by the system stop. These update records are rolled
back during the stop, and these are set to the status “init”. These
records are then updated again during the restart.
Before you stop your system, you should inform users using a system
message (SM02).
Figure 18: Stopping the SAP System
The stopping of the SAP system is performed in the opposite order to
the start.
Stopping the instances:
• In the SAP system itself in the CCMS (transaction RZ03) by choosing
Control → Stop SAP instance.
• In the Microsoft Management Console, right-click to show the context
menu and choose the Stop function. Depending on whether you have
selected an individual instance or the SAP system, the following are
stopped:
– A single instance
– Central instance and all dialog instances
The SAP service waits for a stop message from the MMC or from the
CCMS and then stops the SAP system. The service itself is not stopped.
The services themselves can be stopped and restarted with the Microsoft
Windows Service Control Manager.
