This section deals with errors in phase PARMVNT_APPL_VIEWS during the handling of views and its dependencies.

The phase PARMVNT_APPL_VIEWS handles views and its dependencies. To process all dependent views in the correct order, the Software Update Manager distributes dependent views into different groups. As a consequence, all views within one group can be handled in parallel, while multiple groups are processed sequentially according to the dependencies.

If an activation error occurs during the handling of one group, the Software Update Manager stops the update procedure and thus also the processing of the other groups. You can now choose Accept non-severe errors to continue the processing of the next group.

In this case, the Software Update Manager writes the log file ERRONEOUS_VIEWS.<SID> that contains all ignored views and stores it in the mem directory. Later on during the Postprocessing roadmap step, the Software Update Manger checks the log file again whether the views can be activated and created in the database. If not, P messages are written. These messages will then be displayed in phase CHK_POSTUP. (See also Solution of P-Errors (Phase CHK_POSTUP) in Important Entries for the Postprocessing Roadmap Step.

As the option Accept non-severe errors only affects the handling of one group, you can select this option several times when you have multiple activation errors in different groups.
