Diagnosis
In order to generate sites the corresponding site type information hasto be provided. Requirements:

• the site type has to be generation relevant (see site provider table
SMW1SPRVDR) . The generation relevance of a site type requires theavailability of certain function modules (especially a function modulereturning the site attributes in the format required by theSubscription Agent, see documentation).

• you have to specify the site attributes to be used for site generation
(here the Subscription Agent framework calls the above-mentionedfunction module).

• optionally, if allowed by the site type: specification of the
activation state (active/inactive) of the sites to be created.
In this case the subscription generator is configured to createinactive sites, although the site type supports only active sites.

System Response
The site creation mechanism should prevent that sites with an illegalsite activation status are created. You should nonetheless check,whether sites of the specified site type have been created with anillegal activation status or have not been created at all. For siteswith an illegal activation status data transfer or queue handling maynot work. Messages may get lost without the possibility to extract themlater again.

Procedure
Check whether the site type definition has been changed or a change hasbeen transported into the system after the setup of the SubsacriptionAgent.
Site type information for site creation can be separately set on eachclient. The entries are not transported and can be updated whennecessary. The site activation flag may not be changeable in this case,however.
Note that changes in the site type definition (eg. changes of the siteattributes) do not affect previously created sites. If there are siteswith illegal activation state these have to be deleted or adjusted.
