OPS$connect authorization is required of all database users and is required for connection to the database. J. OPS$connect enables the R/3 System saposcol process to communicate and exchange data with the database. 6 - What action needs to be taken when Oracle returns an ORA-1653 error, failure to allocate an extent for a table in a specific tablespace? Click on the button next to the right answer. F. G. H. I. J.

The tablespace should be moved to a faster disk so that Oracle can find the extents quicker. The tablespace size should be increased by adding 1 or more datafiles. This is an Oracle internal error message which should be registered with Oracle immediately. The database must be shutdown immediately to avoid damage. The affected table should be dropped to avoid similar problems in the future.

7 - Which Oracle component dynamically maintains information about the status of the database redo logs, database mode, names and paths of database files, and is essential during a database recovery? Click on the button next to the right answer.

F. G. H. I. J.

The Oracle parameter file, init<SID>.ora. Each tablespace data file contains this data for the whole database. The Oracle control file, cntrl<SID>.dbf. The SGA definition file, sgadef<SID>.def. The sapdba parameter file, init<SID>.dba.

8 – you have a database has 4 online redo logs, also known as database transaction logs. Each online redo log has a mirrored copy. What will happen at a log file switch? Click on the button next to the right answer. F.

The current online redo log gets copied to its mirrored copy, upon completion the next online redo log becomes open for writing. G.

BRBACKUP

Note! More than one answer is correct. Please click on the buttons next to the correct answers. F. BRARCHIVE is started immediately after the database backup is complete: no further intervention by the database administrator is necessary. G. This technique can only be used for offline database backups, not online backups. H. The database backup and the backup of the offline redo log files must fit on one tape because changing tapes is not supported.

I. You can backup the database using multiple tape devices in parallel. J. The tapes used must have been initialized by BRBACKUP. 13. What happens during the startup of an Oracle database? Note! More than one answer is correct. Please click on the buttons next to the correct answers. F. The SGA is created in shared memory according to the parameter settings in the configuration file init<SID>.ora. G. The Oracle background and shadow processes are created. H.

As the last step, the online redo log files are cleared and the data files are opened. 14. What happens during the shutdown of an Oracle database? Note! More than one answer is correct. Please click on the buttons next to the correct answers. F.

When you shutdown the database with the NORMAL option, the database system disconnects all users before shutting down the database. G. When you shutdown the database with the NORMAL or IMMEDIATE option, the database system writes a checkpoint before shutting down the database. H. When you shutdown the database with the ABORT or IMMEDIATE option, open transactions are rolled back before the database is shut down. I. When you shut down the database with the ABORT option, the R/3 system is shut down, too. J.

7) One of the expensive statements chooses an unsuitable access path leading to many buffer gets but only a few records per execution. Such type of statements can be tuned with: a) Update of optimizer statistics b) Change of ABAP code c) Optimizing user input d) Creating an index 8) One of the expensive statements chooses a suitable access path leading to many buffer gets and many records per execution. Such type of statements can be tuned with: a) Change of ABAP code b) Optimizing user input c) Creating an index d) Tuning of the business process 9) During an investigation by a Basis administrator in the month of February 2005, he came across an expensive statement. What could be his initial reaction? a) Index is missing on the table. b) ABAP code needs to be changed. c) Table statistics is not up to date. d) None of the above.

10) Which of the following statement is true about “Estimated cost” displayed in the execution plan of an SQL statement using “Explain”? a) Estimated cost indicates either the expected number of buffer gets that must be performed or the expected number of disk accesses. b) CPU time necessary to process the statement greatly influence the estimated costs.

11)An R/3 system has expensive statements if: (1) the number of buffer gets for the topmost statement exceeds 5% of the total number of reads. (2) The ratio of reads to user calls > 15. a) False b) True 12) Statements with many buffer gets per execution will lead to: a) High consumption of system resources during execution. b) Should have a low number of executions. c) Should not be executed during peak hours. d) None of the above 13) Which of the following table is used to update the accuracy of table statistics using DB21? a) DBMSGORA b) DBCHECKORA c) DBSTATC d) BDSTATC 14) For the purpose of calculating table statistics, method “Compute” means that only a part of the table is used for the analysis. a) False b) True 15) During the process of finding out the code that caused the expensive statement, it is now possible (As of release 4.6 B) to jump directly to the ABAP code from Shared Cache Area. a) False b) True 16) An ABAP Open SQL statement is different than the SQL statement in the Shared SQL Area in case of: a) Use of Internal tables (IN TAB) b) The command FOR ALL ENTRIES c) Projection views d) SAP Queries e) None of the above 17) Which of the following statements are true? a) The system administrator monitors the impact of expensive SQL statements in the system. If the system is well tuned and properly sized, he can only analyze the situation and not solve it. b) It is the job of end-users to optimize the coding, indexes and customizing and is responsible for the data model design. c) In large installations it is always recommended to log the details of expensive statements in the system and send the summary to IT management if requested. d) If an expensive statement is less critical, the user can be advised to run the same in the background or during periods of low system activity. 18) In case of an “Index Unique Scan” approximately how many blocks (table and index) could be accessed? a) 1 b) 4 c) 3

d) 10 19) Suppose one large table ZVBAP has 10 fields apart from the primary key on the following 3 fields MANDT, VBELN and POSNR. Which of the following statement is correct? a) A statement such as: SELECT * FROM ZVBAP WHERE MANDT = ‘001’ AND VBELN = ‘0000123’ AND POSNR = ‘0001’ is of type “Index Unique Scan” and will result in more than 1 records. b) A statement such as: SELECT * FROM ZVBAP WHERE MANDT = ‘001’ AND VBELN = ‘0000123’ is of type “Index Range Scan” and will result in 0 or 1 number of records. c) A statement such as: SELECT * FROM ZVBAP WHERE MANDT = ‘001’ AND POSNR = ‘0001’ is of type “Index Range Scan”. However it is inefficient leading to the reading of many index blocks that do not contain the requested data. d) A statement such as: SELECT MANDT, VBELN, POSNR FROM ZVBAP WHERE MANDT = ‘001’ AND POSNR = ‘0001’ will return the data from the index blocks. In this case data blocks do not need to be read resulting in less buffer gets. e) A statement such as: SELECT * FROM ZVBAP WHERE MANDT = ‘001’ AND MATNR = ‘00815’ is of type unselective “Index Range Scan”. This may lead to reading a very large fraction of index blocks. In such kind of selects maximum Gets/Execution could be = Number of table rows + number of index blocks. 20) Which of the following is true about “Full Table Scan”? a) No index is used during a full table scan. b) Each data block is read once. c) Maximum Gets/Execution could be = Number of table blocks + number of index blocks 21) Which of the following statements are true? a) If table statistics exist, the Oracle cost based optimizer is used and the estimated cost for the selected access path is > 0. b) If rule based optimizer is used than either ‘estimated costs = 0’ or no estimated costs at all displayed in the explain output. c) In a query if the options used are not supported by rule based optimizer, the cost based optimizer is used, although no statistics exist. d) None of the above. 22) Which of the following Oracle parameter control cost calculation functions? a) control_cost b) db_file_multi_block_read_count c) events d) optimizer_index_cost_adj e) cost_pool_size 23) What is SAP recommended value for db_file_multi_block_read_count? a) 16 b) 8 c) 10 d) 24 24) Which of the following R/3 parameters control cost calculation functions? a) rsdb/max_blocking_factor b) dbs/ora/use_hints

25) What is SAP recommended value for rsdb/max_blocking_factor? a) 10 b) 5 c) 15 d) 8 26) Which of the following statements about creating indexes are correct? a) Use only selective fields if possible. b) Use as few fields as possible. Thumb rule: Max 5. c) Create as many indexes per table as possible. There is no limit. d) You are free to change the index created by SAP. 27) Which of the following steps one can take before resorting to creating an index for a table in order to optimize an expensive SQL statement? a) Check for the missing index in DB02 and recreate them. b) Run update statistics. c) Change the code so that existing index can be used. d) Change SAP index without SAP approval. 28) Which of the following statements are true about “Similar Statements”? a) They use the same access path. b) Have the same or similar WHERE clause. c) Have different entries in the Shared SQL area. d) May not be individually expensive, but the sum of similar statements can be expensive. e) None of the above. 29) Are the following statements similar: SELECT * FROM V_MARA WHERE MANDT = ‘001’ AND KOSTL IN (A, B) SELECT * FROM V_MARA WHERE MANDT = ‘001’ AND KOSTL IN (A, B, C) SELECT * FROM V_MARA WHERE MANDT = ‘001’ AND KOSTL IN (A, B, C, …, Z) a) Yes b) No 30) The Shared SQL Area treats statements as “different” if the character string is different. a) False b) True 31) How can you avoid similar statements? a) Change the ABAP code so that statements match exactly. b) Use the ABAP command FOR ALL ENTRIES instead of IN conditions. c) Write the statements once in upper case and once in lower case when you are using third party tools. d) All of the above. 32) Which of the following statements are possible optimization methods for expensive statements with suitable access path? a) Pull the statement out of the loop or nested select if the where clause of the driven statement does not change. b) Do no think of join or view instead of the nested select as join could be very expensive. c) Process only those records that are required.

d) None of the above.

36) Expensive SQL statement in which there are many buffer gets but only a few records per execution can be tuned by: a) Update of optimizer statistics b) Increasing the Redo log buffer area c) Change of ABAP code d) Creating an Index e) Increasing the parameter db_cache_size. 37) What should be the command to update statistics in SAP release 6.10 and higher? a) Sapdba –checkopt followed by sapdba –analyze b) brconnect –f check c) brconnect –f stats d) brconnect –f statistics 38) Parsed SQL statements are stored in which of the following Memory area? a) Database buffer cache b) Shared SQL area c) Redo log buffer d) None of the above 39) One of the expensive statements chooses an unsuitable access path leading to many buffer gets but only a few records per execution. Such type of statements can be tuned with: a) Update of optimizer statistics b) Change of ABAP code c) Optimizing user input d) Creating an index 40) One of the expensive statements chooses a suitable access path leading to many buffer gets and many records per execution. Such type of statements can be tuned with: a) Change of ABAP code b) Optimizing user input c) Creating an index d) Tuning of the business process 41) During an investigation by a Basis administrator in the month of February 2005, he came across an expensive statement. What could be his initial reaction? a) Index is missing on the table. b) ABAP code needs to be changed. c) Table statistics is not up to date. d) None of the above.

42) Which of the following statement is true about “Estimated cost” displayed in the execution plan of an SQL statement using “Explain”? a) Estimated cost indicates either the expected number of buffer gets that must be performed or the expected number of disk accesses. b) CPU time necessary to process the statement greatly influence the estimated costs.

43)An R/3 system has expensive statements if: (1) the number of buffer gets for the topmost statement exceeds 5% of the total number of reads. (2) The ratio of reads to user calls > 15. a) False b) True 44) Statements with many buffer gets per execution will lead to: a) High consumption of system resources during execution. b) Should have a low number of executions. c) Should not be executed during peak hours. d) None of the above 45) Which of the following table is used to update the accuracy of table statistics using DB21? a) DBMSGORA b) DBCHECKORA c) DBSTATC d) BDSTATC 46) For the purpose of calculating table statistics, method “Compute” means that only a part of the table is used for the analysis. a) False b) True 47) During the process of finding out the code that caused the expensive statement, it is now possible (As of release 4.6 B) to jump directly to the ABAP code from Shared Cache Area. a) False b) True 48) An ABAP Open SQL statement is different than the SQL statement in the Shared SQL Area in case of: a) Use of Internal tables (IN TAB) b) The command FOR ALL ENTRIES c) Projection views d) SAP Queries e) None of the above 49) Which of the following statements are true? a) The system administrator monitors the impact of expensive SQL statements in the system. If the system is well tuned and properly sized, he can only analyze the situation and not solve it. b) It is the job of end-users to optimize the coding, indexes and customizing and is responsible for the data model design. c) In large installations it is always recommended to log the details of expensive statements in the system and send the summary to IT management if requested. d) If an expensive statement is less critical, the user can be advised to run the same in the background or during periods of low system activity. 50) In case of an “Index Unique Scan” approximately how many blocks (table and index) could be accessed? a) 1 b) 4 c) 3

d) 10 51) Suppose one large table ZVBAP has 10 fields apart from the primary key on the following 3 fields MANDT, VBELN and POSNR. Which of the following statement is correct? a) A statement such as: SELECT * FROM ZVBAP WHERE MANDT = ‘001’ AND VBELN = ‘0000123’ AND POSNR = ‘0001’ is of type “Index Unique Scan” and will result in more than 1 records. b) A statement such as: SELECT * FROM ZVBAP WHERE MANDT = ‘001’ AND VBELN = ‘0000123’ is of type “Index Range Scan” and will result in 0 or 1 number of records. c) A statement such as: SELECT * FROM ZVBAP WHERE MANDT = ‘001’ AND POSNR = ‘0001’ is of type “Index Range Scan”. However it is inefficient leading to the reading of many index blocks that do not contain the requested data. d) A statement such as: SELECT MANDT, VBELN, POSNR FROM ZVBAP WHERE MANDT = ‘001’ AND POSNR = ‘0001’ will return the data from the index blocks. In this case data blocks do not need to be read resulting in less buffer gets. e) A statement such as: SELECT * FROM ZVBAP WHERE MANDT = ‘001’ AND MATNR = ‘00815’ is of type unselective “Index Range Scan”. This may lead to reading a very large fraction of index blocks. In such kind of selects maximum Gets/Execution could be = Number of table rows + number of index blocks. 52) Which of the following is true about “Full Table Scan”? a) No index is used during a full table scan. b) Each data block is read once. c) Maximum Gets/Execution could be = Number of table blocks + number of index blocks 53) Which of the following statements are true? a) If table statistics exist, the Oracle cost based optimizer is used and the estimated cost for the selected access path is > 0. b) If rule based optimizer is used than either ‘estimated costs = 0’ or no estimated costs at all displayed in the explain output. c) In a query if the options used are not supported by rule based optimizer, the cost based optimizer is used, although no statistics exist. d) None of the above. 54) Which of the following Oracle parameter control cost calculation functions? a) control_cost b) db_file_multi_block_read_count c) events d) optimizer_index_cost_adj e) cost_pool_size 55) What is SAP recommended value for db_file_multi_block_read_count? a) 16 b) 8 c) 10 d) 24 56) Which of the following R/3 parameters control cost calculation functions? a) rsdb/max_blocking_factor b) dbs/ora/use_hints

All rights reserved. 2003/Q3 TADM10 Test Your Knowledge Answers 1. What are the advantages of a three-tier client/server configuration as compared to a single-tier or two-tier configuration? Answer: A, C Implementing an additional hardware layer for application processes makes it easier to adapt an SAP system if the number of users changes (scalability), and to assign user groups to specific application servers (software-oriented view), (load balancing). The additional hardware layer does not, however, reduce the administrative workload. 2. Which process at the application server level receives the user request? Answer: B The dispatcher receives the user request on the application server and passes it on to an available work process. The SAP presentation program, SAP GUI, is not part of the application server (software-oriented view), and the buffer enables quicker processing of user requests. 3. What types of SAP GUI are there? Answer: A, B, D There is a SAP GUI for the Windows environment, based on the Windows platform, there is a platform-independent SAP GUI for the Java environment, and a SAP GUI for HTML, consisting of a browser and an Internet Transaction Server. There is no such thing as SAP GUI for Linux. 4. The SAP Web Application Server database interface enables you to: Answer: A, C When the ABAP Interpreter sends a query to the database, the database interface reads the data from the SAP Web Application Server.s local buffer, if possible. If the data required is not present in the buffer, then the interface turns the Open SQL statement from the ABAP coding into database-specific native SQL coding. The database interface is not used to access the content of online databases on the Internet or files on the SAP Web Application Server. 2003/Q3 © 2003 SAP AG. All rights reserved. 127

Test Your Knowledge TADM10 5. Which work process types can you find on an SAPWeb Application Server? Answer: A, C, E, F, G All of the above processes can in theory be configured on an SAP Web Application Server. However, not all of the above processes are work processes. The message server and ICM process are not work processes. 6. The term .central instance. describes the instance Answer: B The central instance is the instance on which all application processes required for operating an SAP system are configured. Specifically, the central instance therefore also contains processes that are only present once per system (such as the message server). Every instance has a gateway process, the existence of a gateway process does not therefore denote the central instance. The number of dialog work processes, or the total number of work processes configured on the central instance is not relevant in this context. 7. What tasks does the task handler carry out? Answer: B The task handler coordinates activities within a work process. The work process and the user.s SAP GUI do not communicate directly, but through the dispatcher. The database is accessed through the database interface and the ABAP coding is executed by the ABAP processor. 8. Is the assignment of users to dialog work processes fixed? Answer: C The dispatcher reassigns the user to a dialog work process for each dialog step in a transaction. The assignment of users to dialog work processes is therefore not fixed. (The only exception to this rule is the debugging mode, in which one dialog process is assigned to one specific user.) 128 © 2003 SAP AG. All rights reserved. 2003/Q3 TADM10 Test Your Knowledge 9. Database transactions are based on the ACID principle. So are SAP transactions. Why does the database transaction concept nevertheless not cover all the needs of the SAP system? Answer: A, B Every dialog work process starts a new database transaction within each dialog step. An SAP transaction can bundle several database transactions into units that makes sense in business terms . this is not related to performance issues. 10. Where is the lock table? Answer: B The lock table is located in the main memory of the SAP Web Application Server on which the enqueue work process is configured. 11. It makes sense, in an SAP system, to configure several enqueue work processes on different SAP Web Application Servers. Answer: False It does not make sense to configure enqueue work processes on different SAP Web Application Servers, since there can be only one lock table per SAP system and this lock table is located in the main memory of the SAP Web Application Server on which the enqueue work process is configured. 12. Why are asynchronous updates used for dialog transactions? Answer: B

Asynchronous updates solve the problems caused by the different interpretations of transaction at database level and at SAP level. Bundling all updates for one SAP transaction into a single database transaction ensures that the data that belongs to this SAP transaction can be rolled back completely. Every work process is continuously connected to the database, therefore every work process can access the database dataset. Access to the SAP system buffers does not depend on the type of update used. 2003/Q3 © 2003 SAP AG. All rights reserved. 129 Test Your Knowledge TADM10 13. During asynchronous updates, which process records the data to be changed in VB* tables? Answer: D The dialog process records the data to be changed in the VB* tables, while the update work process handles the final update of the target tables (the tables that are actually relevant to business). There is no such thing as a recording work process. 14. Answer the following questions with reference to the two access methods you have learned about, .remote. and .local.. Other answers may be correct for other access methods. Which work process types are primarily responsible for creating spool requests? Answer: A, D Most printing requests are started in the dialog or in background processing. 15. Which processes and hardware elements are involved (and in what order) in handling the print process using the .remote. access method? The flow is only outlined here. Answer: C Depending on the settings of the relevant system parameters, the TemSe might be located in different .places.: normally it is either in the database or at file-system level on the central instance. 16. What is background processing used for? Answer: A, C Background processing is typically used for long-running tasks or tasks that recur regularly. The prerequisite is that these tasks do not require user interaction. The spool work process is responsible for printing lists. 130 © 2003 SAP AG. All rights reserved. 2003/Q3 Test Your Knowledge 1.

These systems may be located within the same company, or they may be distributed between several companies. The data is transferred by RFC in a previously defined format. The transfer type may be synchronous or asynchronous. 2. The following interfaces and communication options are supported by SAP systems: Answer: A, B, C, D From an SAP system, you can communicate with other systems using, for example, HTTP, SMTP, RFC, or BAPIs. XDTP and STP do not exist. 3. You can use BAPIs to: Answer: A, B, D You can use BAPIs to access business processes in an SAP system and to request and transfer data between systems. GUI functions cannot be transferred to third-party products. 4. You access BAPIs in SAP systems using an RFC interface. Answer: True BAPIs are nothing other than special, remote-enabled function modules. They can therefore also be addressed using RFCs.

5. Business Application Programming Interfaces are specialized function modules. They are accessed using the RFC interface. They are created and managed using the Function Builder. Answer: Application, function, RFC, Function You can start the Business Object Repository using transaction code BAPI, and the Function Builder using transaction code SE37. 2003/Q3 © 2003 SAP AG.

SAP Business Workflow ensures that: Answer: A, B, C, D Supporting business processes with workflow enables the work steps that belong to these processes to be handled on a partially automated basis. These steps are assigned in consistent sequences to the appropriate employee at the right point in time. This enhances processing efficiency. Using workflow obviously does not guarantee that the programs you write will always run without errors. 7. You can also use SAP BusinessWorkflow functions (for example, with XML) to trigger functions in other systems. Answer: True You can use workflow to send XML messages that then trigger subsequent actions in other systems, as long as they are appropriately configured. 8. The SAP ITS provides the following functions/options: Answer: A, B, C, F The SAP ITS automatically converts protocols from HTTP to DIAG/RFC, and vice versa; it also generates HTML pages from SAP screens and makes predefined Internet scenarios available as IACs. The ITS does not send IDocs, nor does the WGate communicate directly with work processes. The application gateway carries out this part of the communication process. 9. The following statements are true of the SAPWeb Application Server: Answer: A, D The SAPWeb AS provides the ICM as a completely integrated process that enables you to call BSPs directly, using a URL. You do not need either an SAP ITS or a Web server to do this. 10. The SAP BC enables ALE scenarios across company boundaries. Answer: True Because the SAP BC can transfer data in XML format to other systems, it enables inter-enterprise ALE scenarios. 178 © 2003 SAP AG.

Every archiving object in the SAP system is connected 1:1 with the content of a single database table. Answer: False Different business objects could belong to each archiving object in the SAP system. The data for these business objects could, in turn, be distributed across multiple database tables. 2. The names of the archive files are determined at runtime. How are these names generally specified for a specific archiving object? Answer: C The name of the archive files is determined at runtime by settings in the archiving object-specific Customizing (assignment of a logical file name for the specific archiving object) and in the Basis Customizing (assignment of a physical file name to a logical file name in the Basis Customizing and the assignment of a logical file name). No specifications about the name of the archive file are made in cross-object Customizing. The exact time of the archiving run can appear in the name of the archiving file using a parameter, but the name is generally not determined by this alone. 3. After data has been archived from the SAP system and deleted it from the SAP system.s database, it is no longer possible to access this data with read accesses. Answer: False It is still possible to access data to read it after it has been stored in the archive and deleted from the SAP system.s database.

A The SAP Web dispatcher stores system information in a small local database. B The SAP Web dispatcher knows the capacity of all application servers in the SAP system. C The SAP Web dispatcher makes a firewall superfluous. D The SAP Web dispatcher communicates with the message server. 802 © 2003 SAP AG. All rights reserved. 2003/Q3 TADM10 Test Your Knowledge Answers 1. Which of the following technology components can be used together with an SAP R/3 Enterprise system? Answer: A, B, C All of the above. The SAP ITS can be used with any SAP system (as of SAP Basis 3.1G). The technical foundation of SAP R/3 Enterprise is SAP Web AS 6.20 - for which the ICM and SAP J2EE Engine can be configured. 2. Which tools can you use to administer an SAP ITS? Answer: A, C There are various programs at operating system level after an SAP ITS installation that you can use to administer an SAP ITS. The browser-based ITS Administration tool, with which you can also monitor remote SAP ITS instances, is easier to use. 3. Which statement is correct? Answer: D All of the answers provided are incorrect. The ICM is a process (which internally consists of multiple threads) that is available for all operating systems supported by SAP. You can use a profile parameter to configure either no ICM or one ICM for each SAP instance (and therefore for each dispatcher). Scaling is performed using the settings for the number of threads and memory allocation. 4. The ICM is relevant only for applications based on BSPs. Answer: False Executing BSP applications requires the ICM. However, there are also other applications (Web services such as SOAP/XML or Web reporting with the SAP BW), that use the ICM and ICF but do not use BSPs). Thanks to the ICM and ICF, the SAP Web AS can also

perform the role of Web client and can process other protocols such as SMTP in addition to HTML. 2003/Q3 © 2003 SAP AG. All rights reserved. 803 Test Your Knowledge TADM10 5. In which trace/log file can you identify whether the SAP J2EE Engine was correctly started? Answer: B The file in which the system logs whether the SAP J2EE Engine has been started is dev_disp. The dispatcher starts the SAP J2EE Engine. Therefore the information is stored in the dev_disp file. sapstart.log is the log file for the start process of an SAP system. dev_w0 is the trace file for a dialog work process, and dev_icm is the trace file for the Internet Communication Manager (ICM) process. 6. What are the names of the significant components that make up the SAP J2EE Engine? Answer: B, C The SAP J2EE Engine consists of one or more dispatchers and servers. Work processes are only used in the .standard. SAP environment, and the ICM is the new process in SAP Web AS 6.10. A cluster is simply a term for whether you are working with multiple servers and dispatchers with the SAP J2EE Engine. 7. Which statement(s) is/are correct? Answer: B, D The SAP Web dispatcher communicates with the message server by HTTP(S) to obtain information about the available application servers (which includes their capacity). Although the SAP Web dispatcher can act as a URL filter, it does not replace the function of a firewall. Only requests that are addressed to the configured port of the SAP Web dispatcher are processed. 804 © 2003 SAP AG. All rights reserved. 2003/Q3 Test Your Knowledge 1. Which statements are correct with regard to globalization? Choose the correct answer(s). A The logon language for the SAP system is determined by the country version. B A country version must always be imported as an add-on before it can be used. C Time zones can be attached to a user master record or an object. D The time zone from the user master record is taken into account in all SAP Basis/SAP Web AS transactions. E Before time zones can be used, theymust be defined in the system, together with any daylight saving time definition. F A global company must essentially be mapped as a single client in a single SAP system, as otherwise no integrated business processes are possible. 2. What must be taken into account when importing an additional language into an SAP system? Choose the correct answer(s). A After the actual import of the language package, language-dependent texts from Support Packages that have already been imported must also be imported using transaction SMLT. B The Support Packages that had been imported into the SAP system at the time of the language import must be

completely imported again using transaction SPAM. C Languages that are not completely translated require a supplementation language to fill translation gaps. D All available languages are already available in the database of the SAP system and you must now use transaction SMLT to make them known in the system. E You can use transaction SMLT to perform the language import in parallel using multiple R3trans processes. 2003/Q3 © 2003 SAP AG. All rights reserved. 857 Test Your Knowledge TADM10 3. Which statements are correct with regard to code pages? Choose the correct answer(s). A Every language requires a separate, individual code page. B Multiple code pages can be operated simultaneously on an instance in one client in an SAP system. C With Unicode, all characters that are relevant for business can be mapped in one single code page. MDMP is then no longer required. D During an upgrade from SAP R/3 4.x to SAP Web AS 6.20/SAP R/3 Enterprise, an SAP R/3 system is automatically converted to Unicode. This is known as Unicode migration (Unicode Switch Upgrade). E With MDMP, one character is basically represented by one byte. F Unicode uses two bytes to represent every character. 858 © 2003 SAP AG. All rights reserved. 2003/Q3 TADM10 Test Your Knowledge Answers 1. Which statements are correct with regard to globalization? Answer: C, E Centralized and decentralized system configurations with their hybrid forms, country versions, and time zones are some aspects that must be considered with a global system. 2. What must be taken into account when importing an additional language into an SAP system? Answer: A, C, E You can use transaction SMLT to import additional languages with language-dependent texts into an SAP system. You do not need to reimport Support Packages using transaction SPAM; the Support Packages are handled using transaction SMLT. 3. Which statements are correctwith regard to code pages? Answer: B, C If you use MDMP, multiple code pages can be operated simultaneously in one instance of an SAP system. If you use Unicode, characters are stored with a length of up to four characters. 2003/Q3 © 2003 SAP AG. All rights reserved. 859 Unit 23: Globalization TADM10 860 © 2003 SAP AG.

Choose the correct answer(s). A A system data container is always associated with only one test script. B Multiple test scripts can access the same system data container. C Each entry in the system data container must also appear in the test script at least once. D Only systems that are entered in an associated system data container can be accessed from a test script. 4. Which eCATT driver is suitable for recording and running SAP transactions that run in SAP GUI for Windows? Choose the correct answer(s). A SAPGUI B FUN C TCD D WINGUI 2003/Q3 © 2003 SAP AG. All rights reserved. 945 Test Your Knowledge TADM10 Answers 1. Which possibilities does eCATT provide? Answer: A, B, C, D You can use eCATT to perform cross-system tests. Unlike CATT, you can also test function modules and SAP transactions that use the Control Framework. It is also possible to test applications in the SAP GUI for HTML or BSPs and JSPs using an interface to external test tools. 2. There is a fixed connection between the test data required for an eCATT test case and the test script, and the data cannot be used without this fixed test script. Answer: False In eCATT, the test data used for the test is stored independently of a fixed test script in test data containers. This allows the same test data to be reused in different test cases with different test scripts. 3. Which statements about the relationship between system data containers and test scripts are true? Answer: B, D Both test scripts and system data containers are defined in the context of a test configuration. The test configuration links the initially independent objects system data container and test script. This has the advantage that system data containers can be reused; that is, multiple test scripts can access the same system data container. System data containers can contain more system entries than are required in the test script; however, only systems that are defined in the system data containers can be accessed from test scripts. 4. Which eCATT driver is suitable for recording and running SAP transactions that run in SAP GUI for Windows? Answer: A, C You can use the SAPGUI and TCD drivers for recording and running SAP transactions that run in the SAP GUI for Windows (or in the SAP GUI for Java). If the transaction does not use the Control Framework, we recommend that you use TCD; otherwise, the SAPGUI driver

is required. The FUN driver is used for testing function modules. WINGUI is an imaginary name in this context. 946 © 2003 SAP AG. All rights reserved.

C The operating system program ldap_rfc is running on the host, on which the Directory Server is running. D The names of the RFC destination and the associated Connector definition are identical. 7. During a synchronization process, data can be simultaneously imported and exported for a user. Determine whether this statement is true or false. True False 1042 © 2003 SAP AG. All rights reserved. 2003/Q3 TADM10 Test Your Knowledge Answers 1. Which of the following statements with regard to Central User Administration are correct? Answer: C, D, E The CUA clients linked by ALE are known as the central system and child systems, and as logical systems. You can connect SAP systems to a CUA if they have at least SAP Basis 4.5B or an SAP Web AS. 2. Which of the following statements about logical systems are correct? Answer: A, B, E The table that contains the IDs of the logical systems is a cross-client table. Each ID is assigned to exactly one client, and the recommendation for the naming convention is <SID>CLNT###. The clients involved in a CUA require a unique assignment to a logical system. 3. Which of the following statements about the required RFC connections in a CUA are correct? Answer: A, D, E The names assigned to the RFC connections used must be identical to the names of the logical systems, that is, also in uppercase letters. The user behind the RFC connection should be of the type Communication. The central system requires an RFC connection to itself. The communication users require a number of authorizations only to create the CUA; the corresponding roles can be removed from the user master records after the setting up of the CUA is completed. 4. With which methods is it possible to create users in child systems in the context of an active CUA? Answer: B, E If you are using a CUA, you can only create users in child systems using transaction SU01 in the central system. The creation of users is possible using the Systems, Roles, and Profiles tab pages. 2003/Q3 © 2003 SAP AG. All rights reserved. 1043 Test Your Knowledge TADM10 5. Directory services can only be used as a repository for information about users. Answer: False Thanks to flexible data model, data about any objects (such as hardware resources or documents) can be stored in directory services . although their use for user information is particularly widespread. 6. Which prerequisites must be fulfilled on the SAP side to use an SAP Web AS with a directory server?

Answer: A, D In the SAP system, the RFC destination used and the LDAP Connector must bemaintained with the same name (in uppercase letters). The operating system program ldap_rfc can then be started on the selected application server of the SAP system . while the directory server(s) addressed can run on remote servers (without ldap_rfc). Additional Customizing includes the definition of a system user and the connection data, including the host name and port number of the directory server. The LDAP system user is stored in Customizing for the directory service connection and has nothing to do with the SAP users maintained in transaction SU01. 7. During a synchronization process, data can be simultaneously imported and exported for a user. Answer: True The synchronization indicators do not need to be identical for all mappings. It is therefore entirely possible that, for example, SAP-specific data (such as role assignments) is exported during a synchronization process, while other data (such as a fax number) is imported. 1044 © 2003 SAP AG.
