Updating SAP ABAP Systems on UNIX and Linux: SAP HANA DB

Correcting Errors in the TRBATCHK Phases

The tp program uses table TRBAT to communicate with the SAP ABAP system.

Context

The Software Update Manager checks the table TRBAT several times in different roadmap steps, whether it still contains entries. The entries can be the remains of an import or export that either terminated or is still running.

To clean up table TRBAT, try the following procedure.

Procedure

  1. Enter the following command:

    tp getprots <SID>

    This does not affect any imports or exports that are still running. The tp program informs you about possible processing problems in the SLOG file in the transport directory of your SAP system.

  2. Check the file SLOG<YY><WW>.<SID> for recent entries.

    The file is located in the log subdirectory of your transport directory. <YY> means the year (two digits) and <WW> is the calendar week (two digits).

  3. Call transaction SM31 to delete any entries in TRBAT that cannot be processed and that are no longer needed.
