Redeploy JAVA support packages in EP

To apply JAVA support packages we are normally using JSPM or SDM but now from NW 7.3 onwards we are not getting direct tool SDM so now every package has to be deploy through JSPM only.


If you have deployed any package and you want to redeploy the the same package with lower level or same level and you are not able to see in JSPM queue /usr/sap/trans/EPS/in then follow the SAP Note : 112333


It may happened you are using forcefully deploy option as per note 1123333 and then also you are not able to see the patch in queue or after applying also some of the component is missing then use the command line option to deploy as below.

Login with SIDadm

> telnet localhost 5<instance no>08

It will ask you for Login & password. Use administrator user & password and run the command

> DEPLOY -h

It will show you the help . Run the below command to apply the patch

> DEPLOY <path of the patch i.e. /usr/sap/trans/EPS/in/patch.SCA > versionRule = <all | lower etc as per help >


Cheers !!!

Test call of transport control program (tp) ended with return code 0232

Today I was releasing the transport request at that time I was able to release the child request but parent request was giving the error like " Test call of transport control program (tp) ended with return code 0232"


This error is coming because of SAPSR3 user is expired in database.

SAP has suggested a note (1519872 - SAP Database User Profile SAPUPROF)  for this & now from Oracle 11G onwards we have to change the password of SAPSR3 user in every 6 months.

Change the password through BRTOOLS to update the same in SAPUSER table as well.

To avoid the change of password every 6 months download the profile script attached with the above note.

Run the script as per note & check the below command in sqlplus prompt to confirm the expiry date of users.

SQL > select USERNAME, ACCOUNT_STATUS, EXPIRY_DATE from dba_users;



Cheers.... :)
