• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSM1434 - Creation of statistics for InfoCube & scheduled/started ?

  The SAP error message RSM1434 indicates that there is an issue with the creation of statistics for an InfoCube, which is a part of the SAP BW (Business Warehouse) system. This error typically occurs when the process of generating or updating statistics for an InfoCube is either scheduled or has already started, leading to a conflict.
  Cause:
  
  Concurrent Execution: The most common cause of this error is that the statistics creation process for the InfoCube is already running or has been scheduled to run. SAP BW does not allow multiple instances of the same process to run simultaneously for the same InfoCube.
  Locking Mechanism: SAP uses a locking mechanism to prevent data inconsistencies. If a process is already in progress, it will lock the InfoCube, preventing any new requests to create statistics.
  Long-Running Processes: If the previous statistics creation process is taking longer than expected, it may lead to this error if another attempt is made to create statistics.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Running Processes: Use transaction code SM37 to check for any running jobs related to the InfoCube. Look for jobs that are currently executing or have failed. If you find a job that is still running, you may need to wait for it to complete.
  Cancel or Delete Jobs: If you find that a job is stuck or taking too long, you can cancel or delete it from the job overview in SM37. Be cautious when doing this, as it may affect data integrity.
  Review Job Scheduling: If the job is scheduled to run at a specific time, consider adjusting the schedule to avoid conflicts with other processes.
  Check for Locks: Use transaction code SM12 to check for any locks on the InfoCube. If there are locks that are no longer needed, you can delete them (ensure you understand the implications of doing so).
  Monitor System Performance: If the issue persists, monitor the system performance and check for any resource bottlenecks that may be causing delays in job execution.
