3601927 - Memory reduction error : Configured limit conflicts with the memory allocated to the spaces

Symptom

Reducing tenant memory fails with the error:

  • "The selected configuration sets the memory lower than the memory assigned for spaces. Increase the memory size in this tab or free memory assigned to spaces in the Space Management tab."

Total allocated memory to active spaces is lower than the tenant’s total memory.

Environment

  • SAP Datasphere

Cause

  • Deleted spaces in the Recycle Bin retain their memory allocation until permanently removed.
  • The system prevents memory reduction if the requested limit is below the combined memory of active spaces + recycled spaces.

Resolution

  1. Navigate to Space Management > Recycle Bin.
  2. Select the unused spaces reserving memory.
  3. Click Delete to permanently remove them and free allocated memory.
  4. Retry the memory reduction in tenant settings.
