Answer / adel

according to the description (users still able to go from tcode to tcode) it cant be archive folder is full or TBS full

it seems that there is not enough dia wps available and the dispatcher is waiting for next available wp to assign to users.

You must check if someone ran a program very consuming that hammered the db or using too much parallelism

either db cant cope or not enough dia wp available
