It is possible you may still have some servers in 2 versions : "IBM" and without "IBM". This happens if your saplogon file was not updated after the migration to IBM of all the SAP servers. If one of the servers doesn't work, try the other. |

As the Quality Servers are usually copies of the production servers, the user/passwords are the same. If you do not managed to connect with your production user/password, try a previous password. Otherwise, request for a password reset. |
