Question: Hi All

we are working on 4.7x1.10 SR1.

when we tried to add some transactions in Authorization object S_TCODE

it is showing us only in display mode rather it should be in change mode.

Is there any parameter that we need to add in 4.7 or what is the procedure to make S_TCODE as change mode?

pls help me out ........thanks in advance


Answer:
If you are using PFCG then the tcode needs to be added to the MENU not the authorization. If you are in SU02, Profiles created from PFCG cannot be changed in SU02

Yes! You can trigger an operation mode switch from a program that you have written yourself using a function module (RZL_PERFORM_BA_SWITCH).

It's possible via transaction RZ03.
Choose the instance and use Control -> Switch Operation Mode.

How do you find that an operation mode switch occurred? There are many ways

1) Go to sm50. If the no of dialog work processes or background work processes changes then a operation mode switch took place.

2) Go to transaction sm63. Here you can see the time when the operation mode is set. You can guess when the operation mode switch occurs.

3) Go to transaction RZ04, here you can see the list of operation modes and their time. You can guess that from here

4) Go to transaction rz03 , here you can see the current operation mode in which the server is running.

5) Call transaction Code sm62. Then view system events. If there is an event called SAP_OPMODE_SWITCH then operation mode switch occurred at that time. If you click on activity log you can see the time and date when the event was triggered. It is time and date of operation mode switch

Go through the following to find if an Operation Switch Occured:-

1) Go to SM50. If the no of dialog work processes or background work processes changes then a operation mode switch took place.

4) Go to transaction RZ03 , here you can see the current operation mode in which the server is running.

5) Call transaction Code SM62. Then view system events. If there is an event called SAP_OPMODE_SWITCH then operation mode switch occurred at that time.

If you click on activity log you can see the time and date when the event was triggered. It is time and date of operation mode switch.

unconditional tp command mode

what's the meaning behind all those unconditional mode U1 or U126 or U148 or anything?

tp import transportrequest clientxxx U1
tp import transportrequest clientxxx U126
tp import transportrequest clientxxx U148

The u stands for unconditional force ( how hard you want to force the request into the system - do you want to overwrite without warnings, or softly try to load the objects).

0: Called a overtaker; change request can be imported from buffer without deleting it and then uncoditional mode 1 is used to allow another import in the correct location.

1: If U1 is used with the export then it ignores the correct status of the command file; and if it is used with import then it lets the user import the same change request again.

2: When used with tp export, it dictates the program to not to expand the selection with TRDIR brackets. If used in tp import phase, it overwrites the originals.

3: When used with tp import, it overwrites the system-dependant objects.

5: During the import to the consolidation system it permits the source systems other than the integration system.

6: When used in import phase, it helps to overwrite objects in unconfirmed repairs.

8: During import phase it ignores the limitations caused by the table classification.

9: During import it ignores that the system is locked for this kind of transport.
