SAP BASIS Administrator

SAP NetWeaver & S/4HANA Architecture

Perché: Lets you reason about how a change to one instance, client or logical system affects the others, for instance before a client copy or a new application server.

Instances, Work Processes & Dispatcher

Perché: Lets you adjust the work process split and limits for an instance when batch jobs starve dialog users, and explain the trade-off to the business.

Work Process Monitoring (SM50/SM66)

Perché: Lets you decide whether to cancel a long-running work process or wait, based on its status and the user impact, and document the call for the incident record.

System Log & Short Dumps (SM21/ST22)

Perché: Lets you trace a spike of dumps in ST22 back to the system log entry that preceded it, and tell developers whether the cause is code or infrastructure.

TMS Configuration (STMS)

Perché: Lets you add a system and its transport routes in STMS and repair a broken RFC link, so a new QAS system can receive transports.

Transport Landscape (DEV/QAS/PRD)

Perché: Lets you route a transport correctly through DEV, QAS and PRD and explain why a change reached one system but not the next.

User Administration (SU01)

Perché: Lets you create, lock and correct users and choose the right user type, such as a system user for an interface, without opening a dialog login by mistake.

Roles & Authorizations (PFCG)

Perché: Lets you build and transport a role in PFCG and use derived roles for each plant, so a new team gets the access it needs and nothing beyond it.

HANA Administration (HANA Cockpit & Studio)

Perché: Lets you read HANA Cockpit alerts and memory usage and adjust a parameter, so you can respond to a database warning before it becomes an outage.

Backup & Recovery (BR*Tools / HANA Backup)

Perché: Lets you verify that data and log backups succeeded and are in the catalog, and support a restore request knowing the RPO the business agreed to.
