Datasets refreshes error messages types (on Service log extration)

[Bamak]

Hello

When we extract datasets refreshes history, we can see the two types of error messages :

You have reached the maximum allowable memory allocation for your tier. Consider upgrading to a tier with more available memory

or

The operation was throttled by Power BI Premium because there were too many datasets being processed concurrently. Please try again later

I Guess the first post is related to our premium SKU memory overload

Maybe after time spent on he waiting room  ,  the scheduled refreshment fail  ?

and the second one could be linked to the maximum of parallel refeshes simultaneously -->  for P1 = 8 //)

Also,maybe after the time spent waiting room ,  the refresh plannified fail  ?

Thank you very much for all the details

Best regards

Hi @Bamak 

What that means is you have used all your memory allocated to your Premium Node. This is typically because there are datasets running using memory and a dataset refresh also needs memory to refresh. And the dataset refresh is taking your memory allocation above your limit.

What you need to do is to look at the Power BI Premium Metrics.

This will allow you to see why this is happening.

Below is a link to install the app:

here is the white paper for you to look into how to resolve this:

Also if you had to upgrade it to Power BI Premium Gen2, refreshes would NOT count towards your refreshing datasets:

Hi

Thanks   Gilbert Q  but we know how to install premium app metrics and we already have informations about Gen2

No , we would like to get precise meaning of both error messages

Hi ， @Bamak 

If you get  this error messege 'The operation was throttled by Power BI Premium because there were too many datasets being processed concurrently. Please try again later' , it may measns that the maximum concurrent refresh exceeds the limit in the overlapping time period. It is suggest to set schedule refresh for different datasets at different times,

Please refer to this documnet to for more details.
