What causes this issue?

The database systems released in the PPMS for software component release

NEEDED_DBSYS of the Software Delivery Assembler (SDA).

System Response

The system terminates the activity and the package status remains
unchanged.

How to fix this error?

You have the following options to transfer the released database systems
consistently:
If the values in the NEEDED_DBSYS package attribute are correct, change
the value in the PPMS accordingly. Then carry out the relevant activity
again in the SDA.
In contrast, if values are to be transferred from the PPMS, change the
NEEDED_DBSYS attribute. To do this, register the package with the
"Change Attributes" option. Then carry out the relevant activity again
in the SDA.
