SAP Memory Management

SAP Memory areas overview : SAP Buer SAP Roll Memory SAP Extended Memory SAP Heap Memory SAP Paging Memory Fixed Local Memory of the SAP work Process Main factors in conguring SAP Memory : u Physical Main Memory (RAM) give aIenJon to raJo between physical and virtual memory u OperaJng system opJons and restricJons compare between 32 and 64 bit system architecture
Memory Management Fundamental

The word memory virtual memory physical main memory + swap space local memory + shared memory The maximum amount of virtual memory that can be allocated is limited by two variable : Result of physical hardware restricJon Maximum address space permited by operaJng system The OperaJng System manages two type of memory : u Local memory allocated precisely to one operaJng system process u Shared memory accessible to mulJple operaJng system process
User Context
Reered : Data which is generated by transacJon process Variables, Internal table & screen list New sesion = new user context Data is stored independently in dierent memory areas Stored in SAP roll memory, SAP extended memory, & SAP Heap Memory Sesions divide into : q External sesion opened explicitly by user q Internal sesion opened implicitly by program submit, call transac.on, call dialog, call screen, call func.on in update task, call func.on in background task, and call func.on star.ng new task

SAP Roll Memory

Local SAP Roll area of work process The iniJal part of user context stored Each SAP work process can only access its own roll area Shared SAP Roll Area Accessible to all of instance work processes Buer to temporary keep user context when a user is assigned to new work process
Roll in copying user context from shared roll area to local roll area Roll Out copying user context from local roll area to shared roll area

SAP Roll Area Parameters

zIa/roll_rst rst amount of roll area used in a dialog work process zIa/roll_area size of the local SAP Roll area in the work process rdisp/ROLL_SHM size of SAP roll Buer rdisp/ROLL_MAXFS size of enJre shared SAP roll area
SAP Extended Memory

o o o o
Shared memory which mostly of user context stored All SAP work process can edit stored user context directly Roll in rather only copied the address (pointer) of where a user context located on the SAP extended memory Makes roll process much faster
em/initial_size_MB
ztta/roll_extension
SAP Extended Memory Main Parameters

em/iniJal_size_MB size of SAP extended memory allocated when the SAP instance starts up em/blocksize_KB size block which split SAP Extended Memory zIa/roll_extension maximum size of a user context in the SAP Extended memory
SAP Heap Memory

Area which allocated variably as local memory as required. Released ager a transacJon is complete.
SAP Heap Memory Main Parameters

abap/heap_area_dia quotas of SAP heap memory that a dialog process can allocated. abap/heap_area_nondia quotas of SAP heap memory that a nondialog process can allocated. abap/heap_area_total size that can be allocated in total by all work process. abap/heaplimit workprocess restart limit of heap memory.

SAP Extended Global Memory

q Data can be stored globally between user context q Used to store data across user context q Allows fast & copy-free switching based on mapping.
q Substracted from SAP Extended Memory to calculate the remaining storage
space q Congured using em/global_area_MB parameters
SAP Paging Memory

Object that stored in the SAP Paging Memory : ABAP data cluster stored temporarily with ABAP statement
SAP Paging Memory Main Parameters : o rdisp/PG_MAXFS size of SAP Paging Memory o rdisp/PG_SHM size of SAP Paging Buer (shared memory) Error caused by SAP Paging Memory : u TSV_TNEW_PG_CREATE_FAILED u SYSTEM_NO_MORE_PAGING
Parameter transferred when programs and transacJon called SUBMIT REPORT, CALL TRANSACTION, CALL DIALOG, CALL SCREEN, CALL FUNCTION IN UPDATE TASK, CALL FUNCTION BACKGROUND TASK, CALL FUNCTION STARTING NEW TASK Data extracts created by statement EXTRACT (up to basis 4.5)

Four error factors : Program errors (e.g endless loop) SAP Prole parameters are set incorectly The Swap Space on the operaJng system is not large enough ConguraJon parameters of the operaJng system are set incorectly or OS limits have been reached.
