Summary :
During the execution of Transaction VA01, the SAP system may encounter a short dump error named GETWA_TOO_MANY_SEGMENTS, due to the 32K (32768 entries) limitation in the internal kernel table for global data segments. When this limit is exceeded, the system fails and triggers this error. To analyze and handle this, users should employ the executable program SDSNAPIT, created and saved through Transactions SE38, SE51, and SE41 to read, save, and manage the error data from table SNAP. Users must follow the step-by-step instructions to successfully implement the necessary corrections.
