Monitoring in mdm

[Former Member]

Hi all,

I need help understanding the monitoring capabilities of MDM.

1.what kind of issues do we generally face, how do we go about the error handling and monitoring.

2. Lets say i have scheduled an automatic import and my import fails, where can i see and troubleshoot

How about syndication issues and monitoring.

pls explain

You can bind the MDM with CCMS feature from SAP. In your second case, the "MDM Scenario Alert Monitoring" would create an alert every time a failure occurred on MDM applications (syndication, import manager, etc). You can also have the HeartBeating, to actively check the MDM's status. Please check the help page below for more information.

Hello verma

SAP MDM has two types of log

server log

repository log

You can get all this logs from MDM API

if you got exception during the import through MDIS you can found it in MDIS log

the same according to MDSS - syndication error you can found in MDSS log

in server logs you can found all info about server problems and events

in repository logs you can found all info about repository problems and events

You can see result of import in SAP MDM Console

Select your inbound port and check property "Status"

it may has some values like as :

Empty - Ready folder is empty.

Has Data - Ready folder has some files.

Has Exception - During the import error happen -imported file was remove to ValueX or ImportX folders.

Blocked - During the import error happen file was remove to StructuralX folder.

you can get thta infir from clix or from MDM API too.

The same according your outbound port.

Moreover, if you want to control data adding changing or deleting you can switch on trace functionality on your repository.
