• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CMS098 - SSL port number for &1 not maintained ?

  The SAP error message CMS098 indicates that the SSL port number for a specific instance (denoted by &1) has not been maintained in the system configuration. This error typically arises in scenarios where secure communication is required, such as when using HTTPS or secure connections to the SAP system.
  Cause:
  The primary cause of the CMS098 error is that the SSL port number for the specified instance has not been configured in the SAP system. This can happen due to:

  Missing Entries: The SSL port number may not have been entered in the instance profile or the relevant configuration files.
  Changes in Network Configuration: Changes in the network setup or server configuration may have led to the SSL port being removed or not updated.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the CMS098 error, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Check Instance Profile:
  
  Go to the SAP system and check the instance profile for the specific instance that is causing the error.
  You can do this using transaction code RZ10 (Profile Maintenance).
  Look for the parameter icm/HTTPS/port_<instance> and ensure that it is set with the correct SSL port number.
  
  
  
  Maintain SSL Port:
  
  If the SSL port is not maintained, you can add it by editing the instance profile.
  Set the appropriate port number (e.g., 443 for HTTPS) and save the changes.
  
  
  
  Restart the Instance:
  
  After making changes to the instance profile, restart the SAP instance for the changes to take effect.
  
  
  
  Check ICM Configuration:
