• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSDA_HDP010 - Database type '&1' requires a remote source for query processing ?

  The SAP error message RSDA_HDP010 indicates that the database type specified (denoted as &1 in the error message) requires a remote source for query processing. This typically occurs in the context of SAP HANA Smart Data Access (SDA) or Smart Data Integration (SDI), where you are trying to access data from a remote database that is not directly supported for query processing.
  Cause:
  
  Unsupported Database Type: The database type you are trying to access is not natively supported for direct query processing in the context of the SAP system you are using.
  Configuration Issues: There may be a misconfiguration in the remote source setup, such as incorrect connection parameters or missing configurations.
  Lack of Remote Source: The required remote source for the specified database type has not been defined or is not active.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Database Type: Verify that the database type you are trying to access is supported by SAP HANA Smart Data Access. If it is not supported, you may need to consider alternative methods for data access, such as data replication.
  
  
  Define Remote Source: If the database type is supported, ensure that you have defined a remote source in the SAP HANA system. You can do this by:
  
  Navigating to the SAP HANA Studio or SAP HANA Cockpit.
  Creating a new remote source and specifying the connection details for the remote database.
  Ensuring that the remote source is active.
  
  
  
  Check Connection Parameters: Review the connection parameters for the remote source to ensure they are correct. This includes the hostname, port, username, password, and any other required settings.
  
  
  Test Connection: Use the testing functionality available in the SAP HANA Studio or Cockpit to verify that the connection to the remote source is successful.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to the official SAP documentation for Smart Data Access and the specific database you are trying to connect to for any additional configuration steps or requirements.
  
  
  Check for Updates: Ensure that your SAP system is up to date with the latest patches and updates, as there may be fixes or enhancements related to remote data access.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  SAP HANA Smart Data Access (SDA): This feature allows you to access data from remote databases without physically moving the data into the SAP HANA database.
