• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SVMCRT_JARM002 - JARM data compression skipped as this is already running ?

  The SAP error message SVMCRT_JARM002 indicates that the JARM (Java Archive Resource Management) data compression process is already running, which prevents a new compression job from starting. This can occur in systems where multiple compression jobs are scheduled or triggered simultaneously.
  
  Cause:
  
  Concurrent Execution: The most common cause is that a JARM data compression job is already in progress. SAP does not allow multiple instances of the same job to run concurrently to avoid data corruption or resource contention.
  Job Scheduling: If jobs are scheduled too closely together, it may lead to attempts to start a new job while the previous one is still running.
  Long-Running Jobs: If the existing compression job takes longer than expected, it may lead to this error if another job is triggered before the first one completes.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Running Jobs: Use transaction codes like SM37 (Job Monitoring) to check if a JARM compression job is currently running. If it is,
