VMC_ADMIN007 - Overview

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: VMC_ADMIN - messages for VMC Administration and Monitoring

• Message number: 007

• Message text: The forced shared garbage collection has been interrupted

What causes this issue?

The Java thread being processed in its own Java VM and waiting for the
shared garbage collection has been terminated by an
InterruptedException. The information about the GC run may be
incomplete.

System Response

With forced shared garbage collections the monitoring thread waits for
the end of the GC run to make sure that the information requested
afterwards about the <ZK>distributed data areas (shared closures)</> is
free of unassigned data blocks. Possibly, an error during the GC runs
has interrupted this synchronization.

How to fix this error?

Check the preconfigured system log files (they usually have the name
vmc_<number>.log in the VMC root directory)for details about the cause
of the termination.

Procedure for System Administrators

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message VMC_ADMIN007 - The forced shared garbage collection has been interrupted ?

  The SAP error message VMC_ADMIN007 indicates that a forced shared garbage collection (GC) process was interrupted. This can occur in environments where the Java Virtual Machine (JVM) is used, particularly in SAP systems that utilize the SAP NetWeaver Application Server Java (AS Java).
  
  Cause:
  
  Resource Constraints: The JVM may not have enough resources (CPU, memory) to complete the garbage collection process.
  High Load: If the system is under heavy load, the garbage collection process may be interrupted due to other higher-priority tasks.
  
  Configuration Issues: Incorrect JVM settings or parameters can lead to inefficient garbage collection processes.
  Thread Interruption: The garbage collection process can be interrupted by other threads or processes that require immediate attention.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  Monitor System Resources: Check the CPU and memory usage of the JVM. Ensure that there are sufficient resources available for the garbage collection process.
  Adjust JVM Parameters: Review and adjust the JVM parameters related to garbage collection. This may include tuning the heap
