The first step is to check a job log available in every running background job in transaction code SM37. This information is also saved in the application log and accessible from the manage screen of the extractor

If the error is related to the Java process, more detailed logs are available in the program /DVD/SM_HIVE_DISPLAY_JAVA_LOG

Depending on the nature of the failure more information could be accessed in various areas of SAP and Hadoop

  1. SAP - Web logs (SMICM) for HTTP communication (data transfer)

  2. SAP - ABAP errors in ST22 (data transformation)

  3. SAP - Work process information in SM50/SM66 (data transformation and transfer)

  4. Hadoop - HttpFS logs for HTTP communication (data transfer)

  5. Hadoop - Hive/Impala logs for the ingestion process from staging HDFS into Hive/Impala
