How SAPOSCOL works

SAPOSCOL a tiny program developed by means of SAP as daemon so that SAP R/3 instance can comunicate with its OS host. By the use of this SAPOSCOL program, SAP R/3 can talk and can get a lot of info about OS inclusive of CPU usage, memory degree usage, swap, disk activity, network information, monitored process, system configuration, client - server connectivity, etc. Hmm….we can get it without directly communicating with OS. Just use SAPGUI from your workstation.

Usually, SAPOSCOL program had to be started earlier than your SAP R/3 instance so that it can grant your R/3 occasion with OS information. To begin SAPOSCOL program, your simply entered your OS console/terminal and use ora[SID] (if you’re the use of Oracle) or SAPservice[SID] if you’re the usage of MS SQL.

Just type : #saposcol

If SAPOSCOL process had been running, it will exhibit you the records and status.

To end SAPOSCOL, simply type : #saposcol -k

To review SAPOSCOL information, simply type : #saposcol -s

SAPOSCOL program is very necessary to SAP R/3 instance. It can delivered info to SAP tcode such as RZ20, ST03, ST06, etc.

If your SAPOSCOL program did’nt run then you’ll want to run it manually. Usually, Basis overlook about its permission (if you’re working in UNIX environment) and claimed “Hey, my SAPOSCOL didn’t run ? help…”

Your first step is take a look at its permission on OS level (no t required to restart your SAP R/3 system nor your database server).

Hope this tutorial can assist you.
