column store error... [9] Memory allocation failed

Hello!

I have a problem connected with querying HANA calculation view from ABAP.

I generate the SQL statement in ABAP, send it to HANA and get query results.

The SQL statement that I generate in ABAP has to have a lot of distinct WHERE conditions consisting of four fields. The query looks like this:

SELECT fld1, fld2, fld3, fld4, fld5, fld6

FROM "_SYS_BIC"."packetname/CV_MY_VIEW"

WHERE (

      (fld1 = 'val11' AND fld2 = 'val12' AND fld3 = 'val13' AND fld 4 = 'val14')

OR (fld1 = 'val21' AND fld2 = 'val22' AND fld3 = 'val23' AND fld 4 = 'val24')

OR (fld1 = 'val31' AND fld2 = 'val32' AND fld3 = 'val33' AND fld 4 = 'val34')

.

.

.

.

     )

When there are less than 83 conditions in WHERE clause, the view is executed by HANA in less than 1 second, returning ~3000 rows.

When there are 83 or more conditions, the execution of a query is hanging for a few minutes and then it drops down with error:

SAP DBTech JDBC: [2048]: column store error: search table error:  [9] Memory allocation failed.

I've tried to run the same query from HANA Studio but I get the same error.

Could you please explain me, why is this happening?

Can I do something to be able to send, like, 1000 of conditions, or more, and get the correct result from HANA?

Hello,

Do you have a limit set in regards to memory?

You could try the following:

Set back the parameter global.ini -> memorymanager -> statement_memory_limit to default value

.

Execute the same query again

Once this executes successfully go back to global.ini > memorymanager > statement_memory_limit to previous configuration.
