Regarding BW precalculation server monitoring

[former_member198270]

Hi Experts, we have BW precalculation server configured in pur NW2004s BW system. My requirement is if i can monitor RSPRECADMIN using Solution manager. Like if precalc server goes down it should generate an alert.

Any inputs on the above would be much appreciated.

Thanks Amber S

As indicated [earlier here in SDN|;,there is no MTE for monitoring Precalc. The work-around is to monitor the BI RFC PREC_<SID>. This provides a better end-to-end check than simply checking the Windows service on the Precalc server. Rather than monitor the RFC on the remote system, I simply created a duplicate of the RFC on the Solution Manager system, and monitored that.

See [Monitoring Availability of Services|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/70531389-0c01-0010-2a95-c019524764ae] (PDF) for a description of RFC monitoring.

Also, here are some notes on data collection method CCMS_RFCDest_Availability_Col:

SAP Note:0570083 CCMS: RFC Destination Monitoring does not work

SAP Note:0771455 CCMS: Incorrect MTE Class in RFC Destination Monitoring
