• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSMIGR170 - Source system &1 inactive or inconsistent. PSA versions are not created. ?

  The SAP error message RSMIGR170 indicates that the source system specified is either inactive or inconsistent, which prevents the creation of Persistent Staging Area (PSA) versions. This error typically occurs during data extraction or migration processes in SAP BW (Business Warehouse) when the system is trying to access data from a source system that is not properly configured or is not currently active.
  Causes:
  
  Inactive Source System: The source system may not be active in the SAP BW system. This can happen if the source system has been deactivated or if there are connectivity issues.
  Inconsistent Configuration: The configuration of the source system in the BW system may be inconsistent. This could be due to missing or incorrect settings in the source system configuration.
  Transport Issues: If the source system configuration was recently transported from another system, there may have been issues during the transport process that led to inconsistencies.
  Authorization Issues: The user executing the data extraction may not have the necessary authorizations to access the source system.
  
  Solutions:
  
  
  Check Source System Status:
  
  Go to the SAP BW system and check the status of the source system in the RSA1 transaction (Data Warehousing Workbench).
  Ensure that the source system is active. If it is inactive, activate it.
  
  
  
  Verify Configuration:
  
  Check the configuration of the source system in the BW system. Ensure that all necessary settings are correctly configured.
  You can do this by navigating to the source system settings in RSA1 and verifying the connection parameters.
  
  
  
  Check for Transport Issues:
  
  If the source system configuration was recently transported, check the transport logs for any errors or warnings that may indicate issues during the transport process.
  If necessary, re-transport the configuration or manually correct any inconsistencies.
  
  
  
  Review Authorizations:
  
  Ensure that the user executing the data extraction has the necessary authorizations to access the source system.
  Check the roles and authorizations assigned to the user in the SAP system.
  
  
  
  Check Connectivity:
  
  Ensure that there are no network issues preventing the BW system from connecting to the source system.
  Test the connection to the source system using transaction SM59 (RFC Destinations) to ensure it is working correctly.
  
  
  
  Recreate PSA:
  
  If the above steps do not resolve the issue, you may need to delete and recreate the PSA for the data source in question.
