• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RT195 - Transactional RFC calls (ARFCSSTATE table) ?

  The SAP error message RT195 typically relates to issues with Transactional RFC (tRFC) calls, specifically concerning the ARFCSSTATE table, which is used to manage the state of tRFC calls in the system. This error can occur for various reasons, and understanding the cause and potential solutions is essential for troubleshooting.
  Cause of RT195 Error
  
  
  Inconsistent State: The ARFCSSTATE table may have entries that are in an inconsistent state, which can happen due to network issues, system crashes, or other interruptions during the execution of tRFC calls.
  
  
  Database Locking: If there are locks on the ARFCSSTATE table or related tables, it can prevent the processing of tRFC calls, leading to this error.
  
  
  Configuration Issues: Incorrect configuration of the tRFC settings or the RFC destination can also lead to issues.
  
  
  System Performance: High system load or performance issues can cause delays or failures in processing tRFC calls.
  
  
  Transport Issues: Problems with the transport layer, such as network issues or misconfigured transport routes, can also lead to this error.
  
  
  Solutions
  
  
  Check ARFCSSTATE Table: Use transaction code SM58 to check the status of tRFC calls. Look for entries that are in an error state and analyze the details.
  
  
  Delete or Reprocess Entries: If you find entries in the ARFCSSTATE table that are causing issues, you may need to delete or reprocess them. You can use transaction SM58 to delete problematic entries or use the tRFC transaction to reprocess them.
  
  
  Check for Locks: Use transaction SM12 to check for any locks on the ARFCSSTATE table or related tables. If you find locks that are no longer needed, you can release them.
  
  
  Review Configuration: Ensure that the tRFC configuration and RFC destinations are correctly set up. Check transaction SM59 for RFC destination settings.
  
  
  Monitor System Performance: Use transaction ST22 to check for dumps and SM21 for system logs to identify any performance issues. If the system is under heavy load, consider optimizing performance or scheduling batch jobs during off-peak hours.
  
  
  Network Troubleshooting: If you suspect network issues, check connectivity between the systems involved in the tRFC calls. Use tools like ping or traceroute to diagnose network problems.
  
  
  Consult SAP Notes: Check the SAP Support Portal for any relevant SAP Notes that may address specific issues related to the RT195 error.
  
  
  Related Information
  
  
  Transactional RFC (tRFC): This is a mechanism in SAP that allows for asynchronous communication between systems. It ensures that messages are delivered reliably, even in the event of system failures.
  
  
  ARFCSSTATE Table: This table stores the state of tRFC calls, including information about the status of each call, timestamps, and error messages.
  
  
  Monitoring Tools: Use transaction codes like SM58, SM12, SM21, and ST22 for monitoring and troubleshooting tRFC issues.
  
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to identify the cause of the RT195 error and implement a solution to resolve it. If the problem persists, consider reaching out to SAP support for further assistance.
