Summary :
SAP Note addresses the issue of lock table overflows, indicated by syslog GEG "Lock table overflow". This overflow happens when the number of maximum locks set by the profile parameter enque/table_size is exceeded, potentially due to small table configurations, numerous locks by an application, or hanging updates. The solution involves a kernel patch for versions 4.6D, 6.40 and above, storing information on lock owners and arguments contributing to the last ten overflows. Data retrieval from overflow incidents can be done using transaction SM12, and the information is saved in the ENQHISOVR file on the enqueue server.
Key words :
profile parameter enque/table_size determines, kernel patch concerns kernel releases 4, profile parameter enque/table_size, ten lock table overflows, kernel patch levels, application sets lots, numerous locks inherited, update task exist, lock table configuration, lock table overflow
