• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message DB6PM200 - Recommended setting for pool/cluster table is 'Statistics and VOLATILE' ?

  The SAP error message DB6PM200 indicates that there is a recommendation regarding the settings for a pool or cluster table in the database. Specifically, it suggests that the recommended setting for such tables should be 'Statistics and VOLATILE'. 
  Cause:
  This error typically arises when the database settings for a pool or cluster table do not align with the recommended configuration. Pool and cluster tables are special types of database tables in SAP that are used to optimize storage and performance. The recommendation for these tables to be set as 'Statistics and VOLATILE' is based on the need for accurate statistics for the database optimizer and the dynamic nature of the data in these tables.
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you should adjust the settings for the affected pool or cluster table in the database. Here are the steps you can take:
  
  
  Access the Database Administration Tool: Use the database administration tool appropriate for your database (e.g., SAP HANA Studio, Oracle SQL Developer, etc.).
  
  
  Identify the Table: Determine which pool or cluster table is causing the error. This information may be available in the error message or logs.
  
  
  Modify Table Settings:
  
  Set the table to be VOLATILE: This means that the table's data can change frequently, and the database should not rely on cached data.
  Ensure that Statistics are enabled: This allows the database optimizer to gather and use statistics for query optimization.
  
  
  
  Update Statistics: After changing the settings, you may need to update the statistics for the table to ensure that the database optimizer has the most current information.
  
  
  Test the Changes: After making the changes, test the application or transaction that was causing the error to ensure that the issue has been resolved.
