LMDB – content repository update problem

In last time I tried update The SAP Solution Manager Landscape Management Database (LMDB) content repository (CR). Unfortunately I have encountered the following errors.

Category ABAP Programming Error
Runtime Errors UNCAUGHT_EXCEPTION
Except. CX_LMDB_CR_CONTENT_CORRUPT
ABAP Program CL_LMDB_API_FOR_SOFTWARE======CP
Application Component SV-SMG-LDB

OR

Exception 'CX_LMDB_CR_CONTENT_CORRUPT' was raised, but it was not caught anywhere along the call hierarchy.

 

But from the beginning…

Check actual CR Content version in SLD (Administration -> Details -> Data)

In note 1939864 check HASH for Your CR Content, e.g.

HASH will be needed to find out whether the SAP CR Content is corrupt. We use to this purpose RLMDB_CR_CONTENT_HASHER report :

I see in job log overview below message:

As You see HASH is another than we expected. We have to repair LMDB.

Second check – SLD:

Here also HASH is another than we expected. In this situation we have to reapir SLD.

Solution

1. Repair SLD.

Click Namespaces in section Administration:

Next add temporary namespace:

As You see new temporary namespace is empty

We come back to Home – as You see now our namespace is sld/temp

Now enter here:

CR Content in our new namespace is empty. Now we have to import everything. All necessary informations search here.

We need to align the CR Content versions between sld/active and sld/temp

Finally:

Now we can repair SLD.

Click: Administration -> Maintenance -> Repair Software Catalog

Click: Start Repair button

Now we can remove namespace sld/temp

At the moment SLD should be repaired.

2. Repair LMDB

To repair LMDB run in SE38/SA38 program: RLMDB_SAP_CR_REPAIR_LMDB

Check job in SM37 transaction:

Job log:

At the end once again we should check HASH for SLD and LMDB using the report: RLMDB_CR_CONTENT_HASHER.

— SLD

Result:

— LMDB

Result:

LMDB has been fixed
