• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSSRC006 - & parallel processes is very few - search at least 3 times parallel ?

  The SAP error message RSSRC006 typically indicates that there is an issue with the number of parallel processes available for a specific operation, often related to background processing or batch jobs. This error can occur when the system is unable to allocate enough parallel processing resources to handle the workload efficiently.
  Cause of RSSRC006 Error
  
  
  Insufficient Parallel Processing Capacity: The system may be configured to allow only a limited number of parallel processes, which can lead to bottlenecks if the demand exceeds this limit.
  
  
  System Configuration: The settings in the SAP system for background processing or parallel processing may not be optimized for the current workload.
  
  
  Resource Constraints: The underlying hardware or system resources (CPU, memory) may be insufficient to support the required number of parallel processes.
  
  
  Job Scheduling Conflicts: If there are too many jobs scheduled to run at the same time, it can lead to contention for resources, causing the error.
  
  
  Solutions to RSSRC006 Error
  
  
  Increase Parallel Processing Capacity:
  
  Go to transaction RZ10 to adjust the profile parameters related to background processing. Look for parameters like rdisp/wp_no_dia (for dialog work processes) and rdisp/wp_no_btc (for background work processes) and increase their values as needed.
  
  
  
  Optimize Job Scheduling:
  
  Review the job scheduling in transaction SM37 to identify any jobs that can be rescheduled or optimized to reduce contention for resources.
  
  
  
  Monitor System Resources:
  
  Use transaction ST03N or ST06 to monitor system performance and resource usage. If the system is under heavy load, consider scaling up the hardware or optimizing existing processes.
  
  
  
  Adjust Background Job Parameters:
  
  In transaction SM36, when creating or modifying background jobs, ensure that the "Maximum Number of Parallel Processes" is set appropriately based on your system's capacity.
  
  
  
  Check for Long-Running Jobs:
  
  Identify and analyze any long-running jobs that may be holding up resources. You can use transaction SM37 to find these jobs and take appropriate action.
  
  
  
  Consult SAP Notes:
  
  Check the SAP Support Portal for any relevant SAP Notes that may address this specific error or provide additional guidance.
