Error found in PBT environment, FM = SPBT_INITIALIZE

[daniel_piggott-genge]

Hello,

I've never seen this error until this morning in our systems. 

Error found in PBT environment, FM = SPBT_INITIALIZE

It happened in ERP for our BW extractor process and it basically froze and never completed it's run. 

The only thing I have done recently is set up the BW RFC connection to ERP with a specific logon group that excludes a DI node which is lower spec'd and when used, causes the jobs to run for a lot longer.

Could this be related to that do you think ?

I can't find much information about the error really so any help would be appreciated.

Thank you,

Daniel

Hi Daniel,

Your recent changes have reflected to this error message

Could you refer below SAP notes

Note 727709 - MESSAGE_TYPE_X short dump in SPBT_INITIALIZE in RFC

Note 999639 - SPBT_INITIALIZE triggers dump with MESSAGE_TYPE_X

Hope this helps.

Regards,

Deepak Kori

Hi,

Thank you for that.  The information I'd found suggested RZ12 was where I needed to be looking.  In there there is just a parallel_generators group.  I can't qork out if I should I create another group with the same name as I have used for the group I created through SMLG ?

Thanks,

Daniel

Hello

Have you checked the ABAP dump ?

If you execute the FM SPBT_INITIALIZE you can see that it is prompting for a Group Name.

By default it will use SPACE.

So most probably the issue lies somewhere in this area. I would suggest you to check the dump carefully.

Hello

Instead of using the specific AS can you try to use a logon group instead.

It looks like the function module SPBT_INITIALIZE is using logon groups.
