Environment

Release : 17.2

Component : SERVICE DESK MANAGER

Resolution

It indicates that in asset table "ca_asset" there are some assets which are pointing to a non-existing tenant in ca_tenant table. 
Need to check ca_asset table and either update it with valid tenant value for such rows or delete those rows if not needed.
Once all the records are corrected, rerun the installer.

Before making any changes please make sure to take a backup of the MDB.
