SAP S/4HANA Error 3588: Distributed SQL Sequence Failure
Description
This error indicates a critical failure in the synchronization or 'shipping' of SQL sequences within a distributed SAP S/4HANA environment. It typically arises when the system attempts to replicate sequence states between database nodes, leading to inconsistencies or data integrity issues. Users often encounter this during background processes, data migration, or high-load operations.
Error Message
ERR_DIST_SQL_SEQUENCE_SHIPPING_FAILURE
Known Causes
4 known causesNetwork Instability
Intermittent or high-latency network connections between distributed database nodes can disrupt the timely shipping of sequence updates.
Database Node Desynchronization
One or more database nodes in the distributed setup may have fallen out of sync, preventing proper sequence replication across the cluster.
Excessive Transaction Volume
An unusually high volume of transactions can overwhelm the database's ability to process and ship sequence updates efficiently, leading to backlogs and failures.
Replication Configuration Errors
Incorrect settings or misconfigurations within the SAP S/4HANA database replication parameters can impede the sequence shipping process.
