• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message VIRT105 - Maximum of Memory Available for Virtual Server (Limit) ?

  The SAP error message VIRT105 indicates that the maximum memory limit for a virtual server has been reached. This typically occurs in environments where SAP applications are running on virtual machines (VMs) and the allocated memory for the VM is insufficient to handle the workload.

  Resource Contention: Other applications or services running on the same physical host may be consuming memory resources, leading to insufficient memory availability for the SAP instance.
  Memory Leaks: There may be memory leaks in the application or in the underlying operating system, causing the memory to be consumed without being released.
