hi....
nice doc...
can u please explain the difference between RZ10 and RZ11.

DurgaPrasad said...

Hi..Through Rz11, we can view the sap parameters default value, current value and profile parameter value. Default value means the value obtained after system setup. profile parameter value is the value present in RZ10 profiles. Current value means that value that is set for a parameter through Rz11 tcode(i.e. value set for a parameter dynamically).

Through Rz11, we can set value for a some selected parameters and those values will be lost after restart of the application server and system again starts with values in profile.

Through Rz10 transaction, we can set permenent values to a parameter, whose values take effect only after restart of the application server as after restart profile file parameters will be read by server.

To summarize, through Rz11 we can set values for dynamic parameters for temporary purpose and these values will be lost if application server is restarted. If you would like to change those values permenantly, we need to set through Rz10 and values take effect only after system restart.

Hi,

I came to know about this blog by searching a lot over the google. Finaly came to know about this and this really very helpful to everybody. I have a doubt, if you can give me suggestion or guide me then it would be really very helpful.
I have done MCA in 2007 and after that I am working as Software Test Engineer. Now I have 5+ years experience in software testing and want to start career in SAP. I am a selenium tester as well.
Can you suggest me that which SAP module is good for leaning for me as career.
As I have experience in software tesng only. Should I go with SAP testing or get trained on SAP basis (not intrested in ABAP)?
Kindly guide me here. ALso please tell if I go for SAP testing then what is the scope in that and if I go with BASIS then shat is the scope there.?

Thanks
Amit Kumar
