  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message UMGDMO015 - Number of jobs was set to &1. ?

    The SAP error message UMGDMO015, which states "Number of jobs was set to &1," typically relates to the configuration of background jobs in the SAP system. This message indicates that the number of jobs that can be processed has been set to a specific value, which may be causing issues if it is not aligned with the system's capabilities or the requirements of the processes being executed.

    Cause:

    1. Configuration Settings: The number of background jobs allowed may have been set too low in the system configuration.
    2. System Limitations: The system may have reached its limit for concurrent background jobs due to resource constraints.
    3. Job Scheduling Conflicts: There may be conflicts in job scheduling that prevent additional jobs from being processed.

    Solution:

    1. Check Configuration: Review the configuration settings for background jobs in transaction code SM37 (Job Monitoring) or SM36 (Define Background Job). Ensure that the maximum number of jobs is set appropriately based on your system's capacity.
    2. Increase Job Limit: If the limit is too low, consider increasing the number of allowed background jobs. This can typically be done in the system profile parameters (e.g., rdisp/wp_no_btc).
    3. Monitor System Resources: Use transaction ST02 (Tune Summary) or ST04 (Database Performance Analysis) to monitor system performance and ensure that there are enough resources (CPU, memory) available to handle the jobs.
    4. Job Management: Review and manage existing background jobs to ensure that they are not blocking new jobs. You can cancel or reschedule jobs that are not critical.
    5. Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or support notes related to background job management for specific guidance on your version of SAP.
