8) One of the expensive statements chooses a suitable access path leading to many buffer gets and many records per execution. Such type of statements can be tuned with:a) Change of ABAP codeb) Optimizing user inputc) Creating an indexd) Tuning of the business process

9) During an investigation by a Basis administrator in the month of February 2005, he came across an expensive statement. What could be his initial reaction?a) Index is missing on the table.b) ABAP code needs to be changed.c) Table statistics is not up to date.d) None of the above.

10)Which of the following statement is true about “Estimated cost” displayed in the execution plan of an SQL statement using “Explain”?a) Estimated cost indicates either the expected number of buffer gets that must be

performed or the expected number of disk accesses.b) CPU time necessary to process the statement greatly influence the estimated costs.

Page 36: Print All1

18) In case of an “Index Unique Scan” approximately how many blocks (table and index) could be accessed?a) 1b) 4c) 3d) 10

19)Suppose one large table ZVBAP has 10 fields apart from the primary key on the following 3 fields MANDT, VBELN and POSNR. Which of the following statement is correct?a) A statement such as: SELECT * FROM ZVBAP WHERE MANDT = ‘001’ AND VBELN =

‘0000123’ AND POSNR = ‘0001’ is of type “Index Unique Scan” and will result in more than 1 records.

b) A statement such as: SELECT * FROM ZVBAP WHERE MANDT = ‘001’ AND VBELN = ‘0000123’ is of type “Index Range Scan” and will result in 0 or 1 number of records.

Page 37: Print All1

c) A statement such as: SELECT * FROM ZVBAP WHERE MANDT = ‘001’ AND POSNR = ‘0001’ is of type “Index Range Scan”. However it is inefficient leading to the reading of many index blocks that do not contain the requested data.

d) A statement such as: SELECT MANDT, VBELN, POSNR FROM ZVBAP WHERE MANDT = ‘001’ AND POSNR = ‘0001’ will return the data from the index blocks. In this case data blocks do not need to be read resulting in less buffer gets.

e) A statement such as: SELECT * FROM ZVBAP WHERE MANDT = ‘001’ AND MATNR = ‘00815’ is of type unselective “Index Range Scan”. This may lead to reading a very large fraction of index blocks. In such kind of selects maximum Gets/Execution could be = Number of table rows + number of index blocks.

20)Which of the following is true about “Full Table Scan”?a) No index is used during a full table scan.b) Each data block is read once.c) Maximum Gets/Execution could be = Number of table blocks + number of index blocks

21)Which of the following statements are true?a) If table statistics exist, the Oracle cost based optimizer is used and the estimated cost for

the selected access path is > 0.b) If rule based optimizer is used than either ‘estimated costs = 0’ or no estimated costs at all

displayed in the explain output.c) In a query if the options used are not supported by rule based optimizer, the cost based

optimizer is used, although no statistics exist.d) None of the above.

22)Which of the following Oracle parameter control cost calculation functions?a) control_costb) db_file_multi_block_read_countc) eventsd) optimizer_index_cost_adje) cost_pool_size

23)What is SAP recommended value for db_file_multi_block_read_count?a) 16b) 8c) 10d) 24

24)Which of the following R/3 parameters control cost calculation functions?a) rsdb/max_blocking_factorb) dbs/ora/use_hints

25)What is SAP recommended value for rsdb/max_blocking_factor?a) 10b) 5c) 15d) 8

26)Which of the following statements about creating indexes are correct?a) Use only selective fields if possible.b) Use as few fields as possible. Thumb rule: Max 5.c) Create as many indexes per table as possible. There is no limit.d) You are free to change the index created by SAP.

27)Which of the following steps one can take before resorting to creating an index for a table in order to optimize an expensive SQL statement?a) Check for the missing index in DB02 and recreate them.b) Run update statistics.c) Change the code so that existing index can be used.d) Change SAP index without SAP approval.

Page 38: Print All1

28)Which of the following statements are true about “Similar Statements”?a) They use the same access path.b) Have the same or similar WHERE clause.c) Have different entries in the Shared SQL area.d) May not be individually expensive, but the sum of similar statements can be expensive.e) None of the above.

29)Are the following statements similar:SELECT * FROM V_MARA WHERE MANDT = ‘001’ AND KOSTL IN (A, B)SELECT * FROM V_MARA WHERE MANDT = ‘001’ AND KOSTL IN (A, B, C)SELECT * FROM V_MARA WHERE MANDT = ‘001’ AND KOSTL IN (A, B, C, …, Z)a) Yesb) No

30)The Shared SQL Area treats statements as “different” if the character string is different.a) Falseb) True

31)How can you avoid similar statements?a) Change the ABAP code so that statements match exactly.b) Use the ABAP command FOR ALL ENTRIES instead of IN conditions.c) Write the statements once in upper case and once in lower case when you are using third

party tools.d) All of the above.

32)Which of the following statements are possible optimization methods for expensive statements with suitable access path?a) Pull the statement out of the loop or nested select if the where clause of the driven

statement does not change.b) Do no think of join or view instead of the nested select as join could be very expensive.c) Process only those records that are required.d) None of the above.

40)One of the expensive statements chooses a suitable access path leading to many buffer gets and many records per execution. Such type of statements can be tuned with:a) Change of ABAP codeb) Optimizing user inputc) Creating an indexd) Tuning of the business process

41)During an investigation by a Basis administrator in the month of February 2005, he came across an expensive statement. What could be his initial reaction?a) Index is missing on the table.b) ABAP code needs to be changed.c) Table statistics is not up to date.d) None of the above.

50) In case of an “Index Unique Scan” approximately how many blocks (table and index) could be accessed?a) 1b) 4c) 3d) 10

51)Suppose one large table ZVBAP has 10 fields apart from the primary key on the following 3 fields MANDT, VBELN and POSNR. Which of the following statement is correct?a) A statement such as: SELECT * FROM ZVBAP WHERE MANDT = ‘001’ AND VBELN =

‘0000123’ AND POSNR = ‘0001’ is of type “Index Unique Scan” and will result in more than 1 records.

b) A statement such as: SELECT * FROM ZVBAP WHERE MANDT = ‘001’ AND VBELN = ‘0000123’ is of type “Index Range Scan” and will result in 0 or 1 number of records.

Page 106: Print All1

c) A statement such as: SELECT * FROM ZVBAP WHERE MANDT = ‘001’ AND POSNR = ‘0001’ is of type “Index Range Scan”. However it is inefficient leading to the reading of many index blocks that do not contain the requested data.

d) A statement such as: SELECT MANDT, VBELN, POSNR FROM ZVBAP WHERE MANDT = ‘001’ AND POSNR = ‘0001’ will return the data from the index blocks. In this case data blocks do not need to be read resulting in less buffer gets.

e) A statement such as: SELECT * FROM ZVBAP WHERE MANDT = ‘001’ AND MATNR = ‘00815’ is of type unselective “Index Range Scan”. This may lead to reading a very large fraction of index blocks. In such kind of selects maximum Gets/Execution could be = Number of table rows + number of index blocks.

52)Which of the following is true about “Full Table Scan”?a) No index is used during a full table scan.b) Each data block is read once.c) Maximum Gets/Execution could be = Number of table blocks + number of index blocks

53)Which of the following statements are true?a) If table statistics exist, the Oracle cost based optimizer is used and the estimated cost for

the selected access path is > 0.b) If rule based optimizer is used than either ‘estimated costs = 0’ or no estimated costs at all

displayed in the explain output.c) In a query if the options used are not supported by rule based optimizer, the cost based

optimizer is used, although no statistics exist.d) None of the above.

54)Which of the following Oracle parameter control cost calculation functions?a) control_costb) db_file_multi_block_read_countc) eventsd) optimizer_index_cost_adje) cost_pool_size

55)What is SAP recommended value for db_file_multi_block_read_count?a) 16b) 8c) 10d) 24

56)Which of the following R/3 parameters control cost calculation functions?a) rsdb/max_blocking_factorb) dbs/ora/use_hints

57)What is SAP recommended value for rsdb/max_blocking_factor?a) 10b) 5c) 15d) 8

58)Which of the following statements about creating indexes are correct?a) Use only selective fields if possible.b) Use as few fields as possible. Thumb rule: Max 5.c) Create as many indexes per table as possible. There is no limit.d) You are free to change the index created by SAP.

59)Which of the following steps one can take before resorting to creating an index for a table in order to optimize an expensive SQL statement?a) Check for the missing index in DB02 and recreate them.b) Run update statistics.c) Change the code so that existing index can be used.d) Change SAP index without SAP approval.

Page 107: Print All1

60)Which of the following statements are true about “Similar Statements”?a) They use the same access path.b) Have the same or similar WHERE clause.c) Have different entries in the Shared SQL area.d) May not be individually expensive, but the sum of similar statements can be expensive.e) None of the above.

61)Are the following statements similar:SELECT * FROM V_MARA WHERE MANDT = ‘001’ AND KOSTL IN (A, B)SELECT * FROM V_MARA WHERE MANDT = ‘001’ AND KOSTL IN (A, B, C)SELECT * FROM V_MARA WHERE MANDT = ‘001’ AND KOSTL IN (A, B, C, …, Z)a) Yesb) No

62)The Shared SQL Area treats statements as “different” if the character string is different.a) Falseb) True

63)How can you avoid similar statements?a) Change the ABAP code so that statements match exactly.b) Use the ABAP command FOR ALL ENTRIES instead of IN conditions.c) Write the statements once in upper case and once in lower case when you are using third

party tools.d) All of the above.

64)Which of the following statements are possible optimization methods for expensive statements with suitable access path?a) Pull the statement out of the loop or nested select if the where clause of the driven

statement does not change.b) Do no think of join or view instead of the nested select as join could be very expensive.c) Process only those records that are required.d) None of the above.

What are the advantages of a three-tier client/server configuration ascompared to a single-tier or two-tier configuration?Answer: A, CImplementing an additional hardware layer for application processesmakes it easier to adapt an SAP system if the number of users changes(scalability), and to assign user groups to specific application servers(software-oriented view), (load balancing). The additional hardwarelayer does not, however, reduce the administrative workload.2. Which process at the application server level receives the user request?Answer: BThe dispatcher receives the user request on the applicationserver and passes it on to an available work process. The SAPpresentation program, SAP GUI, is not part of the application server(software-oriented view), and the buffer enables quicker processingof user requests.3. What types of SAP GUI are there?Answer: A, B, DThere is a SAP GUI for the Windows environment, based on theWindows platform, there is a platform-independent SAP GUI for theJava environment, and a SAP GUI for HTML, consisting of a browserand an Internet Transaction Server. There is no such thing as SAPGUI for Linux.4. The SAP Web Application Server database interface enables you to:Answer: A, CWhen the ABAP Interpreter sends a query to the database, thedatabase interface reads the data from the SAP Web ApplicationServer.s local buffer, if possible. If the data required is not present inthe buffer, then the interface turns the Open SQL statement from theABAP coding into database-specific native SQL coding.

All rights reserved. 127Test Your Knowledge TADM105. Which work process types can you find on an SAPWeb ApplicationServer?Answer: A, C, E, F, GAll of the above processes can in theory be configured on an SAPWeb Application Server. However, not all of the above processes arework processes. The message server and ICM process are not workprocesses.6. The term .central instance. describes the instanceAnswer: BThe central instance is the instance on which all application processesrequired for operating an SAP system are configured. Specifically,the central instance therefore also contains processes that are onlypresent once per system (such as the message server). Every instancehas a gateway process, the existence of a gateway process does nottherefore denote the central instance. The number of dialog work

processes, or the total number of work processes configured on thecentral instance is not relevant in this context.7. What tasks does the task handler carry out?Answer: BThe task handler coordinates activities within a work process. Thework process and the user.s SAP GUI do not communicate directly,but through the dispatcher. The database is accessed through thedatabase interface and the ABAP coding is executed by the ABAPprocessor.8. Is the assignment of users to dialog work processes fixed?Answer: CThe dispatcher reassigns the user to a dialog work process for eachdialog step in a transaction. The assignment of users to dialog workprocesses is therefore not fixed. (The only exception to this rule isthe debugging mode, in which one dialog process is assigned to onespecific user.)128 © 2003 SAP AG. All rights reserved. 2003/Q3TADM10 Test Your Knowledge9. Database transactions are based on the ACID principle. So are SAPtransactions. Why does the database transaction concept neverthelessnot cover all the needs of the SAP system?Answer: A, BEvery dialog work process starts a new database transaction withineach dialog step. An SAP transaction can bundle several databasetransactions into units that makes sense in business terms . this isnot related to performance issues.10. Where is the lock table?Answer: BThe lock table is located in the main memory of the SAP WebApplication Server on which the enqueue work process is configured.11. It makes sense, in an SAP system, to configure several enqueue workprocesses on different SAP Web Application Servers.Answer: FalseIt does not make sense to configure enqueue work processes ondifferent SAP Web Application Servers, since there can be only onelock table per SAP system and this lock table is located in the mainmemory of the SAP Web Application Server on which the enqueuework process is configured.12. Why are asynchronous updates used for dialog transactions?Answer: BAsynchronous updates solve the problems caused by the differentinterpretations of transaction at database level and at SAP level.Bundling all updates for one SAP transaction into a single databasetransaction ensures that the data that belongs to this SAP transactioncan be rolled back completely. Every work process is continuouslyconnected to the database, therefore every work process can accessthe database dataset. Access to the SAP system buffers does notdepend on the type of update used.2003/Q3 © 2003 SAP AG. All rights reserved. 129Test Your Knowledge TADM1013. During asynchronous updates, which process records the data tobe changed in VB* tables?Answer: DThe dialog process records the data to be changed in the VB* tables,while the update work process handles the final update of the targettables (the tables that are actually relevant to business). There is nosuch thing as a recording work process.14. Answer the following questions with reference to the two accessmethods you have learned about, .remote. and .local.. Otheranswers may be correct for other access methods. Which work

Which processes and hardware elements are involved (and in whatorder) in handling the print process using the .remote. accessmethod? The flow is only outlined here.Answer: CDepending on the settings of the relevant system parameters, theTemSe might be located in different .places.: normally it is either inthe database or at file-system level on the central instance.16. What is background processing used for?Answer: A, CBackground processing is typically used for long-running tasks ortasks that recur regularly. The prerequisite is that these tasks do notrequire user interaction. The spool work process is responsible forprinting lists.130 © 2003 SAP AG. All rights reserved. 2003/Q3
