How to fix this error?

This message could have various causes. Usually, it is because actions
relating to other archiving sessions are necessary.
Check that infostructure &V1& and the accompanying field catalog are
correctly defined. If, when building infostructure &V1&, you receive
message <DS:NA.Q6234>Q6234: "Infostructure &V1& inconsistent"</>, you
should check the definition of the accompanying field catalog. For more
information, refer to the long text on message Q6234.
Check whether there are archive files for infostructure &V1& that have
the status "Delete complete", but for which the infostructure &V1& was
nonethelss built. This may be the case for reloaded files.
In this case, you must first delete all infostructures for the files
that do not have the "delete complete" status. Then you can start the
subsequent build for archiving session &V3&.
If, when building infostructure &V1&, you receive the message
<DS:NA.Q6330>Q6330: "Records in infostructure &V1& not inserted"</>,
this could mean that the definition of the field catalog for the
infostructure does not match the actual data structure of archiving
object &V4&. For more information, see the long text for message Q6330.
