SMD HostAgent - SAP Netweaver

[Former Member]

Hello,

I have deployed the SMD Agent (SAP Agent) and the Wily IS Agent (CA agent) for my XDS managed system.

From "Solution Manager Diagnostics" tools, when I click on "Introscope WebView", I get the following information :

1. SAP HostAgent Process (SuperDomain)

- SAP HostAgent J982

- EM Host ....

2. SAP NetWeaver

- XDS_DVEMGS31_server0 (SuperDomain)

- EM Host

Question 01:

1. SAP HostAgent Process is the SMD Agent of XDS.

2. What about "SAP NetWeaver" ? Is it the content of "Wily IS JAVA Agent" ?

Question 02 :

From (1) "SAP HostAgent Process" and (2) "SAP NetWeaver", we get the same information, for example :

1. EM Host

2. Java Version

3. Launch Time

4. Virtual Machine

5. Agents Stats

6. Host

7. GC Heap ...

It seems that both agents are collecting the same data.

What it the SAP strategy in the future ?

Keep only one Agent (SMD) or keep both agents (SMD + Wily) ?

Thanks for your answer

Best regards

PC

Hi PC,

For Qusetion 1)-1 Host agents and wily bytecode agents are both IS agents. SAP host agent is one delivered with SMD Agent and is common for both ABAP and Java based systems.

2) Yes SAP Netweaver is the Byte code agent deployed through SDM and configured via SMD.

Question 2).

1) Only few datas will be common.IS byte code agents is specific for Java and has more details specific to the Java component installed. You still require an SMD agent for Configurations/Data collection in ABAP. so I reckon there will be two agents in future too. But there can be surprises ;).
