  The SAP error message SRT_ADMIN128 indicates that all ICF (Internet Communication Framework) nodes are active. This message typically arises in the context of SAP's web services and communication framework, particularly when dealing with the configuration of web service endpoints.
  Cause:
  The error message SRT_ADMIN128 usually occurs when you are trying to perform an operation that requires at least one ICF node to be inactive, but all nodes are currently active.

  Solution:
  To resolve this issue, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Check ICF Nodes: 
  
  Go to transaction SICF in your SAP system.
  Navigate to the relevant service path (e.g., /sap/bc/srt).
  Check the status of the ICF nodes. You can see which nodes are active and which are inactive.
  
  
  
  Deactivate a Node:
  
  If all nodes are active, you may need to deactivate one or more nodes temporarily.
  Right-click on the node you want to deactivate and select Deactivate.
  Confirm the deactivation.
  
  
  
  Perform Required Operations:
