Clearing entries from DSEG table (global data segments) programatically

Hi All,

Is there any way to clear the global datasegment DSEG table programatically.(Through ABAP code or using any FM )

In an internal mode, a maximum of 32768 global data segments can be managed. The administration is done by global segment table DSEG. So, if this limit is exceeded, runtime error GETWA_TOO_MANY_SEGMENTS is triggered.

I want some way to clear the entries from DSEG to prevent the Dump.

Regards,

Abhishek

DSEG is a global segment table which you cannot control (or 'cleanup' via abap).

analyze the dump. does it always appear in the same application? then search service.sap.com/notes with GETWA_TOO_MAY_SEGMENTS and your application. this will be solved by applying the appropriate notes, for example 524562.

the dump analysis might also lead to your basis-guys having to apply another kernel patch like mentioned in note 925592.

Hello Mylene,

I have already checked all the Notes related to GETWA_TOO_MANY_SEGMENTS but none of the note provided any help.

I need some way to remove the entries from DSEG

i told you that this error can have various reasons.

find them and analyze them.

you cannot access DSEG - this is not in the nature of this 'table'. please re-read my answer.

Not possible. Work around using call function in a new task
