• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message DTINF165 - ILM object '&' removed from the purpose '&' successfully ?

  The SAP error message DTINF165 indicates that an Information Lifecycle Management (ILM) object has been successfully removed from a specific purpose. This message is not necessarily an error in the traditional sense; rather, it is an informational message indicating that a certain ILM object has been deleted or removed from the specified purpose.
  Cause:
  The message is triggered when an ILM object (such as data or a document) is removed from a defined purpose in the ILM framework. This could happen due to various reasons, such as:
  
  Data Retention Policies: The data may have reached the end of its retention period and has been removed as per the defined policies.
  Manual Deletion: An administrator or user may have manually deleted the ILM object from the system.
  System Cleanup: Automated processes or jobs that manage data lifecycle may have executed and removed the object.
  
  Solution:
  Since DTINF165 is an informational message, there is typically no action required unless the removal of the ILM object was unexpected. Here are some steps you can take if you need to address the situation:
  
  Verify the Deletion: Check the logs or the ILM object management to confirm that the deletion was intended and that it aligns with your data management policies.
  Review Retention Policies: Ensure that the retention policies are correctly configured and that the deletion of the ILM object was in accordance with these policies.
  Check for Errors: If the removal was unexpected, investigate any related error messages or logs that might indicate why the object was removed.
  Restore if Necessary: If the removal was not intended and the data is still needed, you may need to restore the ILM object from a backup if available.
  
  Related Information:
  
  ILM Framework: Understand the Information Lifecycle Management framework in SAP, which helps manage data retention and deletion based on business requirements.
  Data Retention Management: Familiarize yourself with how data retention policies are set up in your SAP system and how they affect ILM objects.
  SAP Notes and Documentation: Check SAP Notes or the official SAP documentation for any specific guidance related to ILM and the DTINF165 message.
