    Cause

    This message indicates that the SAP Workflow system has successfully initialized a server group with a certain number of available work processes. It is not an error or warning, but an informational message logged during the startup or restart of the workflow runtime environment.

    • Verify system status: If you are troubleshooting workflow issues, this message confirms that the workflow server group is up and running with the specified number of processes.
    • Check workflow logs: If workflows are not processing as expected, look for error messages elsewhere in the workflow logs or system logs.
    • Adjust server group settings: If the number of available processes (&2) is too low or too high for your workload, you can adjust the number of work processes assigned to the workflow server group via transaction SM61 or by configuring the instance profile parameters.
