• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSCV541 - INFORMIX: Database statistics for table &1 are current (Threshold: &2 %) ?

  The SAP error message RSCV541 indicates that the database statistics for a specific table in an Informix database are considered current, meaning that they have not changed significantly enough to warrant an update. This message is typically related to the database's performance and optimization processes.
  Cause:
  The error message is triggered when the system checks the statistics of a table and finds that they are within an acceptable threshold (in this case, &2%). This means that the statistics have not changed enough since the last update to require a refresh. The threshold is a percentage that defines how much the data in the table can change before the statistics are considered outdated.
  Solution:
  
  
  Review the Threshold: Check the threshold value (&2%) to determine if it is appropriate for your database's usage patterns. If the threshold is too high, consider lowering it to ensure that statistics are updated more frequently.
  
  
  Force Statistics Update: If you believe that the statistics should be updated despite the message, you can manually force an update of the statistics for the table. This can typically be done using a command in the database management system (DBMS) or through SAP transaction codes that manage database statistics.
  
  
  Monitor Table Changes: Keep an eye on the data changes in the table. If the table is frequently updated, you may want to adjust your statistics update strategy to ensure optimal performance.
  
  
  Database Maintenance: Regularly perform database maintenance tasks, including updating statistics, to ensure that the database optimizer has the most accurate information for query planning.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to the SAP and Informix documentation for specific commands and procedures related to updating statistics and managing database performance.
