  The SAP error message DB6PM341, which states "Configuration Parameter &1 is read only," typically indicates that you are trying to modify a database configuration parameter that is not allowed to be changed in the current context. This can happen in various database systems that SAP supports, such as Oracle, SQL Server, or others.
  Cause:
  
  Read-Only Parameter: The parameter you are trying to change is defined as read-only in the database configuration. This means that it cannot be modified through the SAP system or directly in the database.

  Solution:
  
  Check Parameter Documentation: Refer to the official documentation for your specific database to confirm whether the parameter is indeed read-only and understand its implications.
  Use Appropriate Tools: If you need to change a parameter that is read-only, you may need to use specific database management tools or commands outside of SAP to change it, if applicable.

  Review User Permissions: Ensure that the user account you are using has the appropriate permissions to modify database parameters.
  Database Configuration: If the parameter is critical for your operations, consider whether you need to change your database configuration or upgrade to a version that allows for the desired changes.
