Cancel ELM Job

[former_member672022]

Hi Folks,

I started an ELM job, but it is running for a very long time. So I would want to stop the job. I looked at sm37 but I didnot find the job there.

Do you know how to stop this ELM job.  I tried deleting the process in SM50 but it spawns a need process every time I delete one.  Is there

a way to stop this job completely.

Thanks,

Hemanth

Hello Hemanth,

You need to debug the Badi: CRM_MKTLIST_BADI in SM50/SM51 and then Kill the corresponding ELM Upload Job.

1. Put External breakpoint in all servers in FM CRM_MKTLIST_WORKFLOW_DEBUG.
2. Keep at least one session open in all the servers.
3. Do not open more than 5 sessions in total.
4. And don't forget to put the debugger in the BADI method you want to look and remove the parameter CRM_DEBUG_CODE in your user setting once your debugging is finished.

For detailed information, please follow the below links:

• Debugger for CRM_MKTLIST_BADI from WUI
• ELM Badi CRM_MKTLIST_BADI Debug | SCN

Hello Hemanth,

When you run ELM, it does not create job. That is the reason you could not find it in SM37.

ELM uses Parallel processor to split the file into say 200 records and run it in parallel.

Not sure but you can try below steps to stop the process abruptly:

1. GoTo Tcode SPBT; It will list all the servers configured for Parallel processor.

    It will also display Max. work processes and Free Work processes. 

2. It may not display you the list the moment you load this transaction. Click on Init PBT env.

     Now it will list you all the details.

3. On the right side you see a button 'Reset test env.' and input field to fill in time.

    Set it to say 2 secs and click this button. It should stop the all the Parallel WP and Hence, it should also stop the ELM.

Please share with us if this works.

It didn't work for us. Rebooting the system worked. We did not find another way (yet). The was no job and we couldn't see a main process to abort.

This note does not help me.

There is no dump or whatsoever, it runs technically fine, but with wrong data. So I need to abort the running process. I want to know how to abort it.
