• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSDU_REPART529 - &1 MAXVALUE partition may be missing ?

  The SAP error message RSDU_REPART529 indicates that there is a problem with the partitioning of a DataStore Object (DSO) or InfoCube in SAP BW (Business Warehouse). Specifically, the error message states that the MAXVALUE partition may be missing, which means that the system is unable to find the partition that corresponds to the maximum value of the key field in the data model.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Partition: The partition that should contain the maximum value of the key field is not present. This can happen if the data was not loaded correctly or if there was an issue during the partitioning process.
  Data Load Issues: If there were errors during the data load process, it might have resulted in incomplete or missing partitions.
  Incorrect Partitioning Settings: The settings for partitioning in the DSO or InfoCube may not be configured correctly, leading to missing partitions.
  Data Model Changes: Changes made to the data model (like adding new partitions) without proper data migration can lead to inconsistencies.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Partitioning Settings: Review the partitioning settings of the DSO or InfoCube to ensure they are configured correctly. Make sure that the partitioning is set up to handle the range of data you expect.
  Recreate Missing Partitions: If you identify that a partition is indeed missing, you may need to recreate it. This can often be done by reloading the data or using the appropriate transaction to manage partitions.
  Data Load: If the issue is related to a failed data load, check the data load logs for errors and resolve any issues. After fixing the errors, attempt to reload the data.
  Repair the Data Model: If the data model has been changed, consider repairing it by reactivating the DSO or InfoCube. This can sometimes resolve inconsistencies.
  Use Transaction RSD1: You can use transaction RSD1 to check the InfoProvider and its partitions. This transaction allows you to analyze the structure and data of the InfoProvider.
