• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CSM_VMC066 - Maximum Frequency of GC Runs of Individual Virtual Machines ?

  The SAP error message CSM_VMC066, which indicates "Maximum Frequency of GC Runs of Individual Virtual Machines," typically relates to the garbage collection (GC) process in the context of SAP's Java Virtual Machine (JVM). This error suggests that the frequency of garbage collection runs for individual virtual machines has exceeded a predefined limit, which can lead to performance issues.
  
  Cause:
  
  High Memory Usage: The application may be consuming a large amount of memory, leading to frequent garbage collection cycles.
  Inefficient Memory Management: Poorly optimized code or memory leaks can cause the JVM to trigger garbage collection more often than necessary.
  Configuration Limits: The JVM may have specific configuration settings that limit the frequency of garbage collection, and these limits may be reached due to high memory pressure.
  Resource Constraints: Insufficient system resources (CPU, memory) can exacerbate the frequency of garbage collection.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Analyze Memory Usage:
  
  Use monitoring tools (like SAP Solution Manager, JVisualVM, or other APM tools) to analyze
