Hi,

find here with the answers

1.what monitoring service dpes the integration server provide?

-->

1. Runtime Workbench

2. SXMB_MONI

Here you could have Component Monitoring, Cache Monitoring

End-to -End Monitoring, Perfromance Monitoring and many more

RunTimeWorkBench resdes on the Java Stack and so allows you to see the flow of your message from the Adapter Engine ( on Java Stack ) to the Integrtaion Engine ( on ABAP Stack ), and again to the Adapter ENgine ( on Java Stack).

SXMB_MONI runs on the ABAP stack allows you to monitor the message flow only in the ABAP stack / Integration Engine.

SXMB_MONI helps you to find any error in the xi steps. But it will not tell you if you have any errors on the adapters.

So for checking any errors on the adapters and the errors for communicaiton channels we need to go with RWB.

RWB enables a central monitoring of the XI server which has multiple features which SXMB_MONI tcode doesnt provide - http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/7c/14b5765255e345a9e3f044f1e9bbbf/content.htm

Both RWB and Sxmb_moni are both used for monitoring purpose only...where as when take Runtime workbench you can have different options which xi provides...like component monitoring,Performance monitoring,End to End monitoring,message monitoring...etc..but where as in sxmb_moni you can able to see the xml messages only.

2. what is XI message format?

--> It will always be in XML format

3. what is logical syystem, with respect to SLD? and where do we assign it?

Logical System is used to create the Destribution Model in ALE services

5. what are the 3 types of XI Cache? how are they used?

There are 2 types of caches.....

CPA cache - is your Collaboration profile agreement cache, ie to mean it will contains the cache copy of all objects created during configuration time (ID).CPA (Collaboration profile agreement )Cache-mainly for J2EE engine/Adapter engine.

http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/92/2fd93f130f9115e10000000a155106/content.htm

Runtime cache - it will contain cache copies of all the objects in XI (IR/ID)

and active version of all your objects during runtime.

Check this.......

sxi_cache - this tcode is used to manually refresh the cache and also to view the status of the objeccts in the cache. (/people/sravya.talanki2/blog/2005/12/02/sxicache--ripped-off)

>>1.what monitoring service dpes the integration server provide?

We have SXMB_MONI and RWB for monitoring

>>2. what is XI message format?

XI Can understand Only XML language

>>3. what is logical syystem, with respect to SLD? and where do we assign it?

Logical sys will be assigned at the time of Technical sys in SLD

>>4. which XI objects can be used in an Integration process? which ones from REpositary?

While creating the BPM , we use Integration process

>>5. what are the 3 types of XI Cache? how are they used?

We have SXI_CACHE -

ABAP stack refresh

CPA Cahce-----JAVA Stack refresh

1.what monitoring service dpes the integration server provide?

SXMB_MONI for Integration engine

RWB->MESSAGE MONITORING for Adapter engine

2. what is XI message format?

SOAP-XML is XI message format

logon to XI r/3 there got to TCODE SXMB_MONI then go to processed xml messages

this is XI XML message format.

3. what is logical syystem, with respect to SLD? and where do we assign it?

Business System in SLD is logical system .

dont worry about LS it's dummy system which depends on Technical system.

LS is more meaning ful in R/3 where R/3 has different clients.

these Clients are classified as diff LS with respect to R/3.

4. which XI objects can be used in an Integration process? which ones from REpositary?

In BPM you will using configuration part i.e Receiver Determination (Receiver Determination step),Transformation step(from Repository message mapping) mainly.

5. what are the 3 types of XI Cache? how are they used?

SXI_CACHE(Integration Engine Cache)

CPACACHE(Adapter Engine Cache)

Thanks & Regards,
