Hi guys

Suddenly, I start to receive error messages about the RFC failure, No changes done in Basis related.

There are RFC error any many areas;

SM21 - I Maximum number of 100 connectable SAP gateways reached\

STMS - RFC communications error with system/destination TMSADM-PRD.DOMAIN_DEV

Sm59 - we cannot verify the RFC Connection

Please advise us on base of SOS

We recently experience a similar problem. A user was not able to release a transport in our DEV system. The gateway trace file showed lots of these messages:

max no of gateways exceeded (100)

However, there were not very many logged on clients and only a few active connections. We solved the problem by doing a hard stop and restart of the gateway. SMGW --> Goto --> Expert Functions --> Hard Shutdown
