Log on to remote server and start database

Hi All,

We had a issue few days back where we installed CI and DB on separate host and things went fine till the time we refreshed system with PRD database.

Error log:

sidadm> startsap
Database SID must be started first
Log on to remote server and start database

Our DB was up and running and listener was also up.

Even R3trans -d and R3trans -x were successful.

sidadm> R3trans -d
This is R3trans version 6.24 (release 721 - 26.09.13 - 20:13:07 ).
unicode enabled version
R3trans finished (0000).
---------------------------------
sidadm> R3trans -x
This is R3trans version 6.24 (release 721 - 26.09.13 - 20:13:07 ).
unicode enabled version

R3trans finished (0000).

Solution:

Check for parameter named "SAPDBHOST" in DEFAULT.PFL.

Entry should be as

SAPDBHOST =  

Also,

Check DEFAULT.PFL if the file name is "DEFAULT" only then name it to DEFAULT.PFL.

There will be an additional parameter in Java server i.e.

j2ee/dbhost=

Thanks,
Sharib
