System Monitoring Setup in Solution Manager

[Former Member]

Hello Experts,

We are going to implement and configure Solution Manager - System monitoring setup for pre testing purpose

Currenly we have installed below SAP Systems

1.Solution Manager Server

2.ECC server (Without Ides) - Abap

3.CRM Server (Without Ides) -Abap + Java

We need to setup below tasks in Solution Manager

1.Early watch alert

2.System Monitoring

3.Central System Administration

4.Business Process Monitoring

5.Service Level reporting

1.Is it possible to setup the solution manager -above mentioned tasks without Ides system ?

Could you please someone give input reg this.

Thanks

Thirumal

Hi,

Yes.

For RFC connections, Do for ypur won client but any user should have full authorizations.

Hello Thirumal,

the answer you got on Business Process Monitoring is somewhat misleading. It is correct that Business Process Monitoring uses the CCMS as underlying architecture like the System Monitoring. But both topics are very much different shoes. While the System Monitoring is basically just a different User Interface on transaction RZ20 the Business Process Monitoring provides a complete own framework for alerting and sending notifications.

The technical prerequisites for BPMon are described in SAP note 784752 and 521820. Plenty of technical documentation lies under https://service.sap.com/bpm --> Media Library --> Technical Information.

Hi,

Q. Is it possible to setup the solution manager -above mentioned tasks without Ides system ?

A. Yes.

Check with links for

1.Early watch alert

This process helps you to identify potential problems early, avoid bottlenecks, and monitor the performance of your ABAP and JAVA systems and your most important business processes, regularly, automatically and effectively. The data collection infrastructure comprises the ABAP Service Data Control Center and the JAVA function module Data Provider. The SAP EarlyWatch Alert in the SAP Solution Manager is a service provided by SAP.

To be able to use it, you have:

maintained the non-ABAP systems correctly in the system landscape maintenance (transaction SMSY)

RFC u2013 Connections between: and an RFC u2013 Connections established.

your satellite systems and the SAP Solution Manager system

SAP Solution Manager and the SAP Service Marketplace

Solution Manager system and Solution Manager Diagnostics

Cf: Solution Manager IMG (transaction SPRO).

checked the availability of the tools required for the SAP Service sessions (add-on ST-A/PI), with the report RTCCTOOL.

activated Alert Monitoring and set-up the Automatic Session Manager (ASM) in the Service Data Control Center (SDCCN) of your satellite systems, for all SAP satellite systems and the central SAP Solution Manager of your solution

set-up your systems in a solution landscape in the SAP Solution Manager

configured Solution Manager Diagnostics

2.System Monitoring

The system monitoring in the SAP Solution Manager is, as described above, like a system-wide central CCMS. It can also contain the central CCMS (CEN) of satellite systems. These CENs can then monitor other components.

The graphical display in the SAP Solution Manager gives you access to the alerts of all systems in a solution. You can go to the local or central CCMS of the satellite systems.

The system proposes the most important alerts in the CCMS monitor collection, according to SAP experience, and their alert thresholds, for each system in the solution, in the system monitoring Session. You can activate or deactivate these alerts. The connection between the local CCMS and the SAP Solution Manager allows you to maintain the alert thresholds directly in the SAP Solution Manager, overwriting the values in the local CCMS.

3.Central System Administration

You activate the customizing for business processes in your solution, in the Business Process MONITORING session in the SAP Solution Manager. A monitoring tree element (MTE), or a monitor collection, u201EBPMu201C of several monitoring objects, is created in the local or central (CEN) CCMS of the satellite system.

The data is collected for the monitoring types of the business process monitoring in contrast to system monitoring, as follows:

● The system collects performance (dialog transactions), posting cancellations (V1 and V2) and u201EOther CCMSu201C and interface data, in the local CCMS of the satellite systems.

● The system collects background processing, application list, application monitors, delivery lists, and document size data, in the central SAP Solution Manager CCMS.

The SAP Solution Manager system copies the data from the local CCMS.

The graphical display in the SAP Solution Manager simplifies access to the alerts for the business processes, business process steps or the interfaces between the systems in a solution. You can go to the local CCMS of the satellite systems.

The connection between the local CCMS and the SAP Solution Manager allows you to maintain the alert thresholds directly in the SAP Solution Manager. These overwrite the values in the local CCMS.

4.Business Process Monitoring

The system and business process monitoring (including interface monitoring) in the SAP Solution Manager, both use the Computing Center Management System (CCMS) (transaction RZ20) architecture. This means that system alerts which occur in the local CCMS, are passed to the SAP Solution Manager via RFC connections between the SAP Solution Manager and the satellites. The system shows these alerts in a graphic or in Sessions. You can also handle the alerts centrally, without having to go to the local CCMS of the satellite systems.

You can see the alerts from several systems in a solution landscape in the SAP Solution Manager, in a graphical overview, in contrast to the local CCMS of the SAP Solution Manager satellite systems. This is the view of a central CCMS (CEN). You can also monitor non-SAP systems in a central CCMS (CEN) of a satellite system

Thank you very much.

1. In which client/login ID (Examble Client :001/ddic user ) should I login from Solution manager to perform the RFC connection between Satelite system and Solution manager

Thanks..
