  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RS_DB_DB6530 - Fields in metadata: ?

    The SAP error message RS_DB_DB6530 typically indicates an issue related to the metadata of a database object, often in the context of SAP BW (Business Warehouse) or SAP HANA. This error can arise due to inconsistencies or issues in the data model, such as missing fields, incorrect data types, or problems with the underlying database structure.

    Cause:

    1. Metadata Inconsistency: The error may occur if there are inconsistencies in the metadata definitions of InfoObjects, InfoProviders, or other database objects.
    2. Field Mismatch: If there are fields in the metadata that do not match the actual database schema, this can trigger the error.
    3. Transport Issues: If objects were transported between systems (e.g., from development to production) and the transport did not include all necessary components, this can lead to metadata issues.
    4. Database Changes: Changes made directly in the database (outside of SAP) can lead to discrepancies in the metadata.

    Solution:

    1. Check Metadata: Review the metadata definitions in the SAP BW system. Ensure that all fields are correctly defined and match the underlying database structure.
    2. Rebuild Metadata: If inconsistencies are found, you may need to rebuild the metadata. This can often be done through transaction codes like RSA1 (Data Warehousing Workbench) or RSD1 (InfoObject Maintenance).
    3. Repair InfoObjects: Use the RSADMIN transaction to check and repair InfoObjects. You can also use the RS_BW_METADATA report to analyze and fix metadata issues.
    4. Transport Check: If the issue arose after a transport, verify that all necessary objects were included in the transport request. You may need to re-transport missing objects.
    5. Database Consistency Check: Run consistency checks on the database to ensure that the database schema matches the expected structure defined in SAP.
    6. SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address this specific error. SAP frequently releases notes that provide solutions or workarounds for known issues.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as RSA1, RSD1, RSADMIN, and SE11 (Data Dictionary) for checking and managing metadata.
    • SAP Documentation: Refer to SAP Help Portal or SAP Community for detailed documentation and community discussions regarding this error.
    • Support: If the issue persists, consider reaching out to SAP Support for assistance, especially if it involves complex data models or critical production systems.
