Configuring the environment to work with Data Archiving Sessions

This procedure describes how to configure the system environment to use Data Archiving.

To configure the environment to work with Data Archiving Sessions:

1. Ensure that the Job Interception and Spawned Jobs functionalities are activated in the relevant SAP system.
2. Use the Extractor Management utility to set the following priorities for the Extractor process:
   • Spawned jobs - first priority
   • Intercepted jobs - second priority

   Setting first priority for spawned jobs in the Extractor process ensures that Delete jobs and Store jobs are created (ordered) according to the template definition of their parent jobs, and NOT according to Control-M interception rules.

3. Use SAP interception criteria definitions of Extractor Management to configure your SAP system to intercept Data Archiving Delete jobs and Store jobs. This can be done using a rule that is similar to the following:

EXAMPLE: JOB NAME: ARV_EXAMPLE_DEL*

USER NAME: CONTROLM
