SAP Note 581509 - Reasons for "timeout during allocate"

Component : RFC -

Solution : https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/581509 (SAP Service marketplace login required)

Summary :
The SAP Note addresses the failure in establishing a connection to an external RFC server or in calling a function module via RFC, resulting in a "timeout during allocate" message. For "Start on..." configured destinations, the error may display as "timeout during allocate of registered program" (related to Note 1333483). Errors arise from incorrect RFC server program operation, misconfigured destinations, overly short timeout intervals, or network issues. Solutions include verifying external RFC server programs, adjusting destination settings, optimizing timeout configuration considering system landscape, and addressing network errors. Furthermore, proper error management via transaction SMGW can isolate issues, with RFC traces needed for deeper analysis per Note 878860.

Key words :
