• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message PERFTRAC113 - Load balancing destination & unsuitable. Create non-load balancing copy. ?

  The SAP error message PERFTRAC113 indicates that there is an issue with load balancing in the SAP system. Specifically, it suggests that the load balancing destination is unsuitable for the operation you are trying to perform, and it recommends creating a non-load balancing copy.
  Cause:
  
  
  Load Balancing Configuration: The error typically arises when the system is trying to access a resource or service that is not properly configured for load balancing. This could be due to:
  
  Incorrect settings in the SAP system configuration.
  The target system or instance is not available or not configured to handle load balancing.
  Network issues that prevent proper communication with the load-balanced instances.
  
  
  
  Resource Availability: The specific instance that the load balancer is trying to direct traffic to may be down or not responding.
  
  
  System Performance: If the system is under heavy load, it may not be able to handle additional requests, leading to this error.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Load Balancing Configuration:
  
  Verify the configuration of the load balancing settings in the SAP system. Ensure that the instances are correctly defined and that the load balancer is set up properly.
  Use transaction SMLT to check the load balancing settings.
  
  
  
  Instance Availability:
  
  Check the status of the instances in the SAP system. Ensure that all instances are up and running and that they are properly registered in the load balancer.
  Use transaction SM51 to view the list of active instances and their statuses.
  
  
  
  Network Connectivity:
  
  Ensure that there are no network issues preventing communication between the application server and the database or other services.
  Check firewall settings and network configurations.
  
  
  
  Create Non-Load Balancing Copy:
  
  If the issue persists and you need to proceed with your operation, consider creating a non-load balancing copy of the destination. This can be done by configuring a direct connection to a specific instance instead of using the load balancer.
  
  
  
  Performance Monitoring:
  
  Monitor the performance of the SAP system to identify any bottlenecks or issues that may be affecting load balancing. Use transaction ST03N for performance analysis.
