This message is typically related to performance analysis or debugging in SAP systems, particularly when using the End-to-End (E2E) testing tools or performance tracing features.
  Cause:
  
  Buffer Trace Deactivation: The error occurs when an attempt is made to deactivate a buffer trace that has already been turned off. This can happen if multiple users or processes are trying to manage the same trace simultaneously.

  Avoid Concurrent Actions: Ensure that multiple users are not trying to deactivate the trace at the same time. Coordinate with your team to avoid conflicts.
  Review Logs: If necessary, review the logs or trace files to understand the context of the deactivation and ensure that the trace is functioning as expected.
  Re-activate if Needed: If you need to analyze performance again, you may need to re-activate the buffer trace if it is required for your testing or debugging purposes.
