Hi All,
we have an SLT replication running from an Oracle database to our Hana system. Everything works fine for most tables but now a few tables run into error. The SLT server gives the shortdump DBIF_RSQL_INVALID_RSQL and in the tracefiles we see the following errors:
“number overflow in VARNUM->BCD Conversion” and “invalid VARNUM or BCD -> VARNUM to BCD conversion failed. Table /1CADMC/L0000222 #column=193”
The error is clear, the column (193) contains an number field that is too large (the oracle number field contains 40 digits). We also tried to empty this specific table in oracle and then it runs fine. However, that is ofcourse on production not possible. We don't need this column in Hana though but even excluding the column in transaction IUUC_REPL_CONTENT (or converting it to text) still gives the same error since it goes wrong even before transaction IUUC_REPL_CONTENT is executed (it goes wrong with the initial read statement in the oracle database).
Did anyone also experience this and does anyone know if there is a way to solve this? I can live with loosing this column in hana but even that seems not to be possible...
Kind Regards,
Nico van der Linden
