• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SRT_WSP3252 - System can't be set as non-central: There are managed systems ?

  The SAP error message SRT_WSP3252 indicates that the system cannot be set as non-central because there are managed systems associated with it. This typically occurs in the context of SAP Landscape Management (LaMa) or when configuring systems in the SAP Solution Manager.
  Cause:
  The error arises when you attempt to change the configuration of a system from a central system to a non-central system while there are still managed systems linked to it. Managed systems are those that are monitored or managed by the central system, and the central system is responsible for managing the landscape.
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you need to follow these steps:
  
  
  Identify Managed Systems: Determine which systems are currently managed by the central system. You can do this by checking the configuration in the SAP Solution Manager or the relevant management tool.

  Navigate to the system landscape configuration.
  Locate the managed systems that are linked to the central system.
  Unmanage or disconnect these systems from the central system.
  
  
  
  Change System Configuration: Once all managed systems have been unlinked, you can then proceed to change the configuration of the central system to non-central.
  
  
  Recheck Configuration: After making the changes, ensure that the configuration is correct and that there are no remaining dependencies that could cause issues.
