Definition

Total number of errors in an ATC check module.

Use

A tool failure indicates that an error occurred when the ATC ran a plug-in check module. Such a module implements the quality checks that the ATC can run.

Example: A check plug-in that raises an error code produces an entry in the Tool Failures column. The ATC catches short dumps produced by check modules; these two increase the counter in Tool Failures.

Entries in the Tool Failures column mean that the checks performed by the affected module are likely to be incomplete or faulty.

Tool failures may be produced by temporary problems in the SAP System itself. You therefore can retry the check after verifying that the system itself is running correctly.

You can also use the ATC tracing tools in the Monitoring and Managing Results to get more information on a problem with a check module. Standard information sources such as the system log (transaction SM21) and ABAP Short Dumps (transaction ST22 may also help.
