• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SZDM_CC_CHKS_TITLES008 - XPRA cannot be deployed with Upgrade using Zero Downtime Option ?

  The SAP error message SZDM_CC_CHKS_TITLES008 indicates that there is an issue with deploying an XPRA (eXtended Program Run After) during an upgrade using the Zero Downtime Option (ZDO). This error typically arises when certain prerequisites or conditions are not met for the XPRA to be executed in a zero-downtime scenario.
  Cause:
  
  Incompatibility with Zero Downtime: The XPRA you are trying to deploy may not be compatible with the Zero Downtime Upgrade process. Some XPRA programs require downtime to execute properly.
  Missing or Incorrect Configuration: There may be missing configurations or prerequisites that need to be fulfilled before the XPRA can be executed.
  Database Locking Issues: If the database is locked or if there are ongoing transactions that prevent the XPRA from running, this error can occur.
  Custom Code or Modifications: If there are custom modifications or code that interfere with the standard XPRA execution, it can lead to this error.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Compatibility: Verify if the XPRA is compatible with the Zero Downtime Upgrade. Consult the SAP documentation or release notes for the specific version you are upgrading to.
  Review Prerequisites: Ensure that all prerequisites for the XPRA are met. This may include checking for necessary configurations, settings, or other dependencies.
  Run XPRA in Downtime Mode: If the XPRA cannot be executed in a zero-downtime scenario, consider running the upgrade in a traditional downtime mode where the XPRA can be executed without restrictions.
  Consult SAP Notes: Look for relevant SAP Notes that may address this specific error. SAP frequently releases notes that provide solutions or workarounds for known issues.
  Check for Custom Code: Review any custom code or modifications that may be affecting the XPRA execution. If necessary, consult with your development team to identify and resolve any conflicts.
  Database Health Check: Ensure that the database is healthy and that there are no locks or ongoing transactions that could prevent the XPRA from executing.
