• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message EEDM_CALC_INST105 - Job &2 could not be released; check batch server ?

  The SAP error message EEDM_CALC_INST105 indicates that a job (in this case, a batch job) could not be released due to issues with the batch server. This error typically arises in the context of background processing in SAP, particularly when dealing with data management or calculation jobs.
  Cause:
  
  Batch Server Issues: The batch server may be down, not configured correctly, or not available for processing jobs.
  Job Scheduling Conflicts: There may be conflicts with other jobs scheduled to run at the same time, leading to resource contention.
  Authorization Issues: The user or the job may not have the necessary authorizations to execute on the specified batch server.
  System Configuration: Incorrect configuration of the background processing settings in SAP.
  Resource Limitations: The server may be overloaded or have insufficient resources (CPU, memory) to handle the job.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Batch Server Status:
  
  Go to transaction SM37 (Job Monitoring) and check the status of the batch server.
  Ensure that the server is active and not in a stopped state.
  
  
  
  Review Job Logs:
  
  Check the job logs for any additional error messages that might provide more context on why the job could not be released.
  
  
  
  Check Configuration:
  
  Verify the configuration of the background processing settings in transaction SM61 (Define Background Servers).
  Ensure that the server is properly defined and has the necessary resources allocated.
  
  
  
  Adjust Job Scheduling:
  
  If there are multiple jobs scheduled at the same time, consider staggering their execution times to avoid resource contention.
  
  
  
  Authorization Check:
  
  Ensure that the user executing the job has the necessary authorizations to run jobs on the specified batch server.
  
  
  
  System Resources:
  
  Monitor system resources using transaction ST02 (Tune Summary) or ST03N (Workload Analysis) to identify any bottlenecks.
