How To Fix RT417 - SAP update task V1: Average response time per dialog step

RT417 - Overview

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: RT - Monitoring infrastructure MSG and alert texts

• Message number: 417

• Message text: SAP update task V1: Average response time per dialog step

What causes this issue?

The dispatcher distributes the update requests from the appropriate
dispatcher queue to free update work processes. A long dispatcher queue
can be a sign that you have too few work processes; response times that
are too long, on the other hand, can be a sign that you have too many
work processes that must share the instance's resources and therefore
cause more paging. Take account of SAP Note 39412 (How many work
processes to configure).
