  • Message text: No system resources for parallel step &1

  • Show details Hide details
  • What causes this issue?

    You have scheduled the template allocation as a background job with the
    server group &V3&. This leads to parallel processing. The scheduling of
    the prallel step &V1& failed after &V2& attempts due to a lack of
    system resources in the server group &V3&.

    System Response

    The parallel processing cannot be completed or is not possible.

    How to fix this error?

    Repeat the template allocation (if appropriate, only for the affected
    selection packages) and choose another server group that has more
    system resources.

  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message KW113 - No system resources for parallel step &1 ?

    The SAP error message KW113 "No system resources for parallel step &1" typically indicates that the system has reached its limit for parallel processing resources. This can occur in various scenarios, such as when executing background jobs, parallel processing tasks, or when using certain SAP functionalities that require parallel execution.

    Cause:

    1. Resource Limitations: The system has a defined limit on the number of parallel processes that can be executed at the same time. If this limit is reached, additional requests will be queued or rejected, leading to the KW113 error.
    2. Configuration Settings: The configuration settings for parallel processing may not be optimized for the current workload.
    3. System Performance: High system load or insufficient hardware resources (CPU, memory) can also lead to this error.
    4. Job Scheduling: If too many jobs are scheduled to run in parallel, it can exhaust the available resources.

    Solution:

    1. Check and Adjust Parallel Processing Settings:

      • Go to transaction RZ10 to check the profile parameters related to parallel processing, such as rdisp/wp_no_dia (number of dialog work processes) and rdisp/wp_no_btc (number of background work processes).
      • Adjust these parameters if necessary, but ensure that the changes are within the limits of your system's hardware capabilities.
    2. Monitor System Load:

      • Use transaction SM50 or SM66 to monitor the current workload and see if there are any long-running processes that are consuming resources.
      • Identify and terminate any unnecessary or stuck processes.
    3. Job Scheduling:

      • Review the scheduled jobs in transaction SM37. If there are too many jobs scheduled to run in parallel, consider staggering their execution times.
      • Use the job scheduling options to limit the number of parallel jobs.
    4. Increase Hardware Resources:

      • If the system frequently runs into resource limitations, consider upgrading the hardware (CPU, memory) to better handle the workload.
    5. Consult SAP Notes:

      • Check the SAP Support Portal for any relevant SAP Notes that may address this specific error or provide additional guidance.
    6. System Configuration Review:

      • Conduct a thorough review of the system configuration and performance tuning to ensure optimal resource allocation.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes:

      • SM50: Monitor active processes.
      • SM66: Monitor global processes.
      • SM37: Job monitoring.
