What causes this issue?

The actual freespace requirement for a fixed amount of new and changed
data is subject to fluctuation, depending on the utilization of
individual buffers on the database. An extra amount must therefore be
added to the specified freespace requirements, in order to be able to
carry out the import with 99,9% certainty. This amount is calculated
from the NEXTEXTENTs of the objects.

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message TQ067 - Extent is selected for the freespace requirement & with size & ?

  The SAP error message TQ067 indicates that there is an issue related to the allocation of space in the database. Specifically, it suggests that the extent selected for the free space requirement is not sufficient or is not available in the expected size. This can occur in various scenarios, such as when trying to create or extend a database object (like a table or index) and the system cannot find enough contiguous free space to fulfill the request.
  Cause:
  
  Insufficient Free Space: The database does not have enough free space available to accommodate the requested size for the operation.
  Fragmentation: The free space may be fragmented, meaning that while there is enough total free space, it is not contiguous, and thus cannot be used for the operation.
  Database Configuration: The database settings may not be optimized for the current workload, leading to inefficient space management.
  Quota Limits: There may be quota limits set on the database or tablespace that restrict the amount of space that can be allocated.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Free Space: Use database administration tools to check the available free space in the relevant tablespace or data file. Ensure that there is enough contiguous free space available.
  Reorganize Tablespace: If fragmentation is an issue, consider reorganizing the tablespace to consolidate free space. This can often be done through database administration commands or tools.
  Increase Tablespace Size: If the tablespace is full, you may need to increase its size by adding more data files or extending existing ones.
  Review Quotas: Check if there are any quota limits set for the user or schema that might be preventing the allocation of the required space.
  Database Maintenance: Perform regular database maintenance tasks, such as archiving old data, to free up space.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to the SAP and database documentation for specific commands and procedures related to managing space and resolving this error.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Database Administration: Familiarity with the specific database system (e.g., Oracle, SQL Server, HANA) is essential, as the commands and tools may vary.
  SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any known issues or patches related to this error message.
  Monitoring Tools: Utilize monitoring tools to keep track of database space usage and performance metrics to prevent future occurrences of this error.
  
  If the issue persists after trying the above solutions, it may be beneficial to consult with your database administrator or SAP support for further assistance.
