Hi

Alert:

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.

Alerts can be used to prevent delays in the processing of critical situations, because the time between discovering and responding to such situations is reduced considerably.

in case if u have any other problem then reply to me

Hi,

1) what are alerts?

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)what is use of alerts?

Alert Management (ALM) is an ideal solution if you can identify specific business or technical situations that are critical and could escalate efficient operation, and you want specific parties to be informed if these situations arise. The basic functionality of Alert Management is to provide framework for informing administrators and/or users about business-critical problems.

Alerts within XI give us a simple way to monitor only those errors that we want and send alert messages to different people depending on the alert category. You can send alert to alert inbox, mail or even on SMS if cell phone operator gives us the possibility of sending SMS through a web service.

3)how do we create?

4)how do you use it in real time?

Alert Management helps to prevent delays in the processing of critical situations, because the time between discovering and responding to such situations is reduced considerably.

For Eg:In the database table if one source entry is referred by multiple target entries then it becomes ambiguous state in fetching the relevant value. Immediately this problem can be intimated to the Operations Support team through XI(from XI prospective).

Alerts can add tremendous value to your business processes. A business process can execute thousands of times a day, you only need to know if an exception has occurred in the process. The alert framework in SAP NetWeaver can notify you of these alerts.

Hi Parvath,

Alerts are those that inform us of errors during message processing in the XI System. We use the alert configuration to capture these alerts.

You can receive the alert by e-mail, fax, or SMS. In each case you will also find the alert in your alert inbox.

Also refer:

http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/EN/80/942f3ffed33d67e10000000a114084/content.htm

For Configuring the CCMS Alert Monitor, also refer:

http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/e5/5d1741b393f26fe10000000a1550b0/content.htm

We use the alerts to monitor the ABAP and JAVA Components.

Regards,

Shibani

Hi,

Alert : 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 solve the

situation.

XI definition on Alert :

Alert are used to monitor the abap and java components (Including the Business Process Engine) of Exchange Infrastructure centrally, and to identify different categories of system errors and

application errors in the various interfaces and interface namespaces of the components involved.

what is use of alerts : Alert Management (ALM) is an ideal solution if you can identify specific business or technical situations that are critical and could escalate efficient operation, and you want specific parties to be informed if these situations arise. The basic functionality of Alert Management is to provide framework for informing administrators and/or users about business-critical problems.

Alerts within XI give us a simple way to monitor only those errors that we want and send alert

messages to different people depending on the alert category. You can send alert to alert inbox,

mail or even on SMS if cell phone operator gives us the possibility of sending SMS through a web

service.

how do you use it in real time : Alert Management helps to prevent delays in the processing of critical situations, because the time between discovering and responding to such situations is reduced considerably.

For Eg:In the database table if one source entry is referred by multiple target entries then it

becomes ambiguous state in fetching the relevant value. Immediately this problem can be intimated

to the Operations Support team through XI(from XI prospective).

Where we use the Alerts : In the mapping and BPM scenario, when the customer wants some message when any exception occur then we use alerts.
