• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message HH067 - The no. of Dbspace chunks is (highly) critical (due to ontape/onarchive) ?

  The SAP error message HH067 indicates that the number of database space chunks is critically low, which can lead to issues with database operations, particularly when using backup tools like ontape or onarchive. This situation typically arises in environments using IBM Informix as the database management system.
  
  Cause:
  
  Database Space Management: The error is triggered when the number of chunks allocated for the database exceeds a critical threshold. Chunks are segments of disk space allocated for database storage, and if they are running low, it can hinder the database's ability to perform operations such as backups or data writes.
  High Data Volume: An increase in data volume without adequate planning for space can lead to this issue.
  Improper Configuration: If the database was not configured with sufficient chunks from the beginning, it may run into this problem as data grows.
  Fragmentation: Over time, database fragmentation can lead to inefficient use of space, causing the system
