  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSDU_REPART101 - The scheduler job was started ?

    The SAP error message RSDU_REPART101 typically indicates that a data transfer or data load process is currently running in the background, and the system is notifying you that the scheduler job has been started. This message is often encountered in the context of SAP BW (Business Warehouse) or SAP BI (Business Intelligence) when dealing with data extraction, transformation, and loading (ETL) processes.

    Cause:

    1. Concurrent Job Execution: The error usually occurs when a data load or data transfer job is already running, and a new job is attempted to be started. SAP does not allow multiple instances of the same job to run simultaneously to prevent data inconsistencies.
    2. Job Scheduling: The job may have been scheduled to run at a specific time, and the system is informing you that it has started executing.
    3. Long-Running Jobs: If a previous job is taking longer than expected, it may lead to confusion when trying to start a new job.

    Solution:

    1. Check Job Status: Use transaction code SM37 to check the status of the jobs. Look for any jobs that are currently running or have failed. You can filter by user, job name, or status.
    2. Wait for Completion: If a job is currently running, you may need to wait for it to complete before starting a new job.
    3. Cancel or Restart Jobs: If a job is stuck or taking too long, you may consider canceling it (if appropriate) and then restarting the job you intended to run.
    4. Review Job Scheduling: If this is a recurring issue, review the scheduling of jobs to ensure they do not overlap or conflict with each other.
    5. Check for Errors: If the job that is running has failed or is in an error state, investigate the logs for that job to understand the cause of the failure.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as:
      • SM37: Job Monitoring
      • SM36: Job Scheduling
      • RSCATMON: Monitor Data Transfer Processes
    • SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any known issues or patches related to this error message.
    • Documentation: Review SAP documentation for best practices on job scheduling and management in BW/BI environments.

    If the issue persists after following these steps, it may be beneficial to consult with your SAP Basis team or SAP support for further assistance.
