  The SAP error message ESH_OM_OBJ_MODEL_REP777 indicates that there is an issue with the configuration of connectors in the SAP Enterprise Search (SAP ESH) environment. Specifically, the error states that "Copies of each other cannot be used as connectors in parallel." This typically occurs when there are multiple connectors that are essentially duplicates or copies of one another, which SAP does not allow to be used simultaneously.
  Cause:
  
  Duplicate Connectors: The error is primarily caused by having multiple connectors that are configured to pull data from the same source or are otherwise identical in their configuration.
  Configuration Issues: There may be a misconfiguration in the connector settings that leads to the system interpreting them as duplicates.
  System Limitations: SAP has certain limitations regarding the use of connectors, and using multiple identical connectors can violate these rules.
  
  Solution:
  
  Identify Duplicate Connectors: Review the list of connectors configured in your SAP ESH system. Look for connectors that are pulling data from the same source or have identical configurations.
  Remove or Disable Duplicates: Once you identify the duplicate connectors, you can either remove or disable them. Ensure that only one connector is active for each unique data source.
  Reconfigure Connectors: If you need to have multiple connectors for different purposes, ensure that they are configured differently (e.g., different parameters, filters, or data sources).
  Test the Configuration: After making changes, test the configuration to ensure that the error no longer occurs and that the connectors are functioning as expected.
