• The SAP error message ILM_STOR711 indicates that there is an issue with the administrative origin being used in the Information Lifecycle Management (ILM) system. Specifically, it means that the specified origin (denoted as &1 in the error message) is already in use elsewhere, which prevents the current operation from proceeding.
  
  Cause:
