How
to avoid attribute change run collision
,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Attribute
and hierarchy change run : If you change master data (navigation
attributes) or hierarchies of a characteristic that is contained in
aggregates, you must adjust these aggregates. This ensures that
queries that access the InfoCube or assigned aggregates are
consistent. Unlike in the aggregates, no data that refers to
navigation attributes or
hierarchies is stored in the InfoCube.
The
master data or the hierarchy tables are joined with the tables of the
cube when the query is executed.Regardless of whether or not
aggregates exist, the system does not automatically transfer master
data record changes, rather you must activate this master data
explicitly. If aggregates are involved, you must adjust them using
the change run before you can 'release' the data record changes (the
corresponding InfoObjects or hierarchies are registered for the next
change run:
Transaction RSA1 ->
Tools ->
Apply
Hierarchy/Attribute Change ->
InfoObject List or Hierarchy
List).
Problem
In any SAP System only One attribute change run can run at one point of time. i. e If one attribute change run is running in system from any process chain or for any project and 2nd one fails, if start at same time due to locking problem. Due to this entire data load fails.
Solutions
1. Shift Change runs from info package level to global level and/or process chain level in order of priority. Means instead of keeping ACR after each infopackage update we can accumulate all in one ACR at end of Process Chain or in a separate chain, if this data is not dependent for next loads(means no look ups).
2. Increase CR_MAXWAIT time. CR_MAXWAIT is to create a delay for second attribute change run while the first attribute change run is running in the system.
At any single point in time, there can only be one CR in the startphase. Every other CR will immediately fail when unsuccessfullytrying to acquires the startlock. No wait is done here.
Above option is helpfull When the running CR is in the workphase, only then will a second CR enter the start phase and wait as long as specified in CR_MAXWAIT.And when the second CR is in the startphase, all other CRs trying to start will again immediately fail.
3. Created an ABAP Program and included before each Attribute Change Run in Process Chains. This Program checks if any ACR running in the system or not. If any ACR is running it delays 10 Secs. Recursively it checks and delays 10 secs every time. Program execution finishes only when there is not ACR running in the system and allows next process(Attribute Change Run) to trigger in Process Chain. After implementation of this program no ACR failures in our system. Check the coding at end of this blog in appendix.
How to implement
Step1
Create an ABAP program(eg: ZRSDDS_CHANGERUN_MONITOR), coding available at Appendix. create a variant aswell for no of sces neets to wait at max.
Step2
Include this ABAP program in Process Chains between infopackage and Attribute Change runs as shown in the screenshot.
Step3
Goto Process Chain(TCode: RSPC) and choose perticular process chain, then goto processes and choose ABAP program provide technical name and description. Provide created ABAP program and Variant save and activate Process Chain.
