Hi Experts

I had configured alerts by micheal blog.

1. Alert Category Defination

2. Added users to the alert category

3. Defined the alert rule for the Category

Alerts are not triggered.

Even i Checked in SLG1 for the Log. but there is no log created for the alerts.

Please provide with the possible solutions

Thnaks for the help in advance.

Hi Mohamed,

Alerting is an function of Runtime Workbench along with Message archiving,End-to-end monitoring, Performance Monitoring,Cache monitoring.

Alerting is no longer dependent on the configuration and activation of end-to-end monitoring. Consequently, the delay between when an error occurs in message processing and the creation of an alert is significantly reduced. Furthermore, you no longer need to schedule the report XMSALERT_PROCESS_DATA_GET as a

background job.The Runtime Workbench has CCMS Alert Monitor thru which You can now configure one new CCMS Alert Monitor per Adapter Engine for adapter-specific processing errors.Alerts triggered by the Runtime Workbench can now be forwarded to the CCMS Alert Monitor and displayed there.

See also SAP Note 824039.

Thru Runtime Workbench we can access alert inbox, alert configuration In process Integration with Central SAP Monitoring Infrastructure we Drill down to individual process steps and Use SAP Web AS Alert Framework.

In SAP Web AS Alert Framework, we Classify errors and Alert channels (such as e-mail) available.

Alert-Configuration

Objective: Active Monitoring

CCMS Alerts + message-oriented alerts

Based on SAPu2019s Basis Alert Framework

Alerts propagated through E-Mail, SMS,

In Monitoring the SAP Exchange Infrastructure, Message Alerting is part of Runtime Workbench.

1) An Alert is a notification informing its recipients that a critical or very important situation has arisen. The

situation is as severe that an action must be taken immediately in order to resolve the situation. The

system recognizes the situation and sends the Alert.

2) We use the Alert Configuration to have the system inform you of errors during message processing. we

can receive the Alert by e-mail, fax, or SMS.

3) To configure your Alerts, proceed as follows:

a) Create the Alert Categories that we want to use in our Alert Rules.

b) Create the Alert Rules in which we want to use our Alert Categories

4) An Alert is an instance of an Alert Category

5) Alert Categories can be defined by applications or customers using the Alert Category definition

environment, which is accessed in Transaction Code ALRTCATDEF

6) The Structure of Alert Category is defiened by the following

a) Technical key (language-independent) for identification purposes

b) Description (language-dependent)

c) Classification

d) Priority

e) Maximum number of deliveries. (This applies to delivery to a destination other than the alert

inbox.)

f) Expiry time (in minutes) after which the alert is deleted

g) Escalation recipient to whom the alert is sent if it is not confirmed by any of its recipients

h) Tolerance time before escalation

i) Short text, long text, and title

The title is used as mail title, fax subject, and alert title in the inbox. The long text is used as

mail/fax body and the long text view in the inbox. The short text is used for pager and SMS.

j) Container for variable definition if variables are to be used in the texts, or for other application-

specific attributes

k) Subsequent activities in the form of URLs

From HelpFile.

Alerts within XI give us a simple way to monitor only those errors that we want to and send alert messages to different people depending on the alert category.

Alert configuration is used to have the system inform you of errors during message processing.

By using the Alert Framework, central monitoring can be provided with all errors reported during message processing in ABAP and Java. This enables an improved reaction to such errors in both the ABAP runtime and the Java-based Adapter Engine. For this purpose, the Alert Framework is provided with rules based on certain events and on information from the header of the message protocol. These rules determine whether alerts are send or not.

Check with this links this might be very much useful for creating alerts..

Hi Koti,

I am able to see some alerts Many thnz. But there is another problem now.

The container variables are not getting the values.

Ex : Error &SXMS_ERROR_CODE& ( category & SXMS_ERROR_CAT& ) was found in the message & SXMS_MSG_GUID& in the interface &SXMS_FROM_SERVICE&.

I am getting the exactly the same text in the alert box not with the values of the container.

I had defined all the variables in the container

what could be the error ?
