• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SCTS_HDI012 - End of 'Create Container'. HDI return code &1, HDI request ID &2 ?

  The SAP error message SCTS_HDI012 indicates an issue related to the creation of a container in the SAP HANA database, specifically when using the HDI (HANA Deployment Infrastructure). The error message provides a return code and a request ID, which can help in diagnosing the problem.
  Cause:
  The error can be caused by several factors, including but not limited to:
  
  
  Insufficient Permissions: The user or service account attempting to create the container may not have the necessary permissions to perform this action.
  
  
  Resource Limitations: The HANA database may be running out of resources (e.g., memory, disk space) which can prevent the creation of new containers.
  
  
  Configuration Issues: There may be misconfigurations in the HDI or HANA environment that are preventing the successful creation of the container.
  
  
  Existing Container Conflicts: If a container with the same name already exists, it may lead to conflicts during the creation process.
  
  
  Network Issues: Temporary network issues or connectivity problems with the HANA database can also lead to this error.
  
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Permissions: Ensure that the user or service account has the necessary permissions to create containers in the HANA database. This may involve checking roles and privileges assigned to the user.
  
  
  Monitor Resources: Check the HANA database for resource usage. If the database is low on memory or disk space, consider freeing up resources or increasing the allocated resources.
  
  
  Review Configuration: Verify the configuration settings for the HDI and HANA environment. Ensure that all settings are correct and that there are no misconfigurations.
  
  
  Check for Existing Containers: Use the HANA Studio or SQL commands to check if a container with the same name already exists. If it does, you may need to drop the existing container or choose a different name.
  
  
  Examine Logs: Look at the logs associated with the HDI deployment and the HANA database for more detailed error messages that can provide additional context about the failure.
  
  
  Retry the Operation: If the issue was due to a temporary network problem, retrying the operation may resolve the issue.
