If you are using Solution Manager you can achieve this.

Hey

AFAIK it might not be possible coz if the XI server itself is down,how will it process the error and send alerts.

I think too, but is CCMS comes in picture to throw an alert if XI is down

hey

i guess CCMS might be able to handle this ,infact i waz searching for it but coudln't get any solid hits,i haven't worked on CCMS so don't know much about it,but i guess usualy alert configurations won't help in this .

lemme find more and get back

thanx

hey

as CCMS is not part of SAP XI but part of web application server,i m kinda positive now that it should be achieveable by using CCMS.

have a look at the following

think of it this way....

If your PC is off - can it do anything??

If something is monitoring it (solution manager - watching XI) this other system can say it is not available!.

You can always use a different third party product to do this.. We used to use servers alive which sent a ping at regular intervals...

Run the CCMS from Soltuion Manager!

Thanks for your nice example...if you have any exp how we can do it with solution manager then please let me know...I will close this thread later..and according to that will rewards points
