Alert management and CCMS

Hi,
   As of now we are manually monitoring messges and errors in SXMB_MONI and RWB. But client wants to upgrade this system by making this monitoring automated. So i want to give some suggestion regarding the same.. my question is which one is the better option. I mean Alets or CCMS configuraion.
Please dont point me to  Links.. i have gone through all the documents and configuration steps of ALERTS .
Now i need better answer for better Option ( Alerts or CCMS)
They want to provide alerts for interfaces which are already in Live envir... and moreover they are Seeburger related interfaces.
please anybody give some suggestions.
Regards,
Sandeep.

Seeburger related interfaces error tracking can not be done in XI. There was similar discussion was going on I will let you know the link.
here is the link
refer the discussion for the same.
Re: AS2 seeburger monitor

  • Solution manager and CCMS monitoring of remote database

    I have Solution Manager 7 SP Basis 6 installed. I have oracle remote databases connected successfully. Under DBCockpit I see the instances I want to monitor. I can see the backup, tablespaces, etc. These remote instances are SAP Portal JAVA only version 7 but under the dbcockpit alerts only shows alert monitor. The database check and check conditions are in white. Is there a way to see these and be able to report on them? The CCMS tree under the local solution manager also shows these connected remote instances but they are also white in color as if inactive. All CCMS agents and saposcol are running perfectly on the remote systems. The stats tables have been built, the synonyms for the solution manager are in place. What am I missing?

    Hi,
    Please download that attachment "scripts_1139623.sar" provided in SAP Note 1139623 - Using transaction RZ20 to monitor remote Oracle databases.
    Upon extraction of scripts_1139623.sar the following files you will get.
    rz20_nonabap.sql
    dbcheckora10_oltp.sql
    dbcheckora.sql
    Then Perform the below mentioned Steps to resolve your issue.
    Step 1: Create tables DBCHECKORA and DBMSGORA:
      sqlplus SAPSR3DB/<pwd>
      SQL> @rz20_nonabap.sql
    Step 2: Fill the table DBCHECKORA:
      sqlplus SAPSR3DB/<pwd>
      SQL> @dbcheckora10_oltp   
    Step 3: Create the synonyms (as user ora<sid>):
    brconnect -u / -c -f crsyn -o SAPSR3DB
    sqlplus "/as sysdba"
    CREATE PUBLIC SYNONYM SAP_DBSTATC FOR SAPSR3DB.DBSTATC;
    CREATE PUBLIC SYNONYM SAP_DBCHECKORA FOR SAPSR3DB.DBCHECKORA;
    CREATE PUBLIC SYNONYM SAP_DBMSGORA FOR SAPSR3DB.DBMSGORA;
    Step 4: Grant Privileges for OPS$<SID>ADM User for the above created Tables
    sqlplus "/as sysdba"
    grant all on SAPSR3DB.DBSTATC to OPS$<SID>ADM;
    grant all on SAPSR3DB.DBCHECKORA to OPS$<SID>ADM;
    grant all on SAPSR3DB.DBMSGORA to OPS$<SID>ADM;
    grant all on SAPSR3DB.DBSTAIHORA to OPS$<SID>ADM;
    grant all on SAPSR3DB.DBSTATHORA to OPS$<SID>ADM;
    grant all on SAPSR3DB.DBSTATIORA to OPS$<SID>ADM;
    grant all on SAPSR3DB.DBSTATTORA to OPS$<SID>ADM;
    commit;
    Step 5:
    Now after successful execution of above mentioned Steps , in DBACOCKPIT (system configuration), try to save the Remote DB entry with "Collect Alert Data".  It will be saved without any error.
    If you find any errors, post the error contents as a reply of this thread message.

  • Alert time in ALM( Alert Management)

    Hi,
    I have confiqured the CCMS ALM (Alert Management) and it is working fine. But only issue seems to be with the email .When I get the email  I see the difference is the alert time is showing in CET.  I am using the auto-reaction method  ccms_send_alert_to_alm_ccms_container_v4.
    There also I changed the time zone to PST. Still no use, I am getting the alerts only in CET time.
    Could someone help me the resolve this issue? I should get the alert time in PST.
    Another note, I had to change the time zone to PST as at the time of installation of solution manager the time zone was CET. Does this have any affect?
    Thanks
    Subramanyam Inumella

    Hi Subramanyam,
    I know it isn't the answer you want to hear but you are not alone. I am getting the same thing. I tried changing the time of the user who sends the e-mail, as well as the TIME_ZONE parameter. Please update if you find out. Thanks,
    David

  • SRM Alert Management does not determine recipient runtime?

    Dear friends,
    We are working on SRM Alert Management, where the business requirement is an alert to be sent to bidder whose bid has been accepted by manager/purchaser.
    We have configured Alert Classification and Category with following setting
    Category Description - Bid approved
    Priority - 2 High
    Expiry time in Min – 1440
    Rule - <blank> ?????????????
    Escalation Active - <my user ID>
    Application Pac - BBP_EXCEPTION
    We have defined Event and Event Schema (with Event - Accepted, Event Category – ALERT, Sub category of Event - Bid approved)
    Event Schema is further assigned in transaction type.
    Now I need to mention to system that if Bid is accepted then system should send an Alert to the Bidder whose bid has been accepted.
    So, where do I need to define this configuration? As it cannot be a fixed recipient or role based recipient, in fact application should be able to determine the recipient runtime.
    We tired with fixed recipient and its works fine. That means Alert is working but its not determining the recipient runtime.
    Do we need to define Rule-based recipients in ALRTCATDEF?
    Please help,
    Regards,
    Sandeep Parab

    Hi,
    You can also use the enhancement spot "BBP_ALERTING".
    Documentation for this enhancement:
    Alerts/Messages and Events in SRM Alert Management
    Use
    Using BAdI BBP_ALERTING you can define your own events for SRM Alert Management and you can override existing (delivered) events. You can also override the standard alert categories and change the links(URLs) that the recipient uses to get to the relevant business object (document). <b>In addition, you can use the document data to determine your own recipients.</b>
    This BadI serves to enhance and/or vary the settings of the IMG activities under
    Supplier Relationship Management -> SRM Server -> Cross-Application Basic Settings -> Event and Event Schema for Alert Management.
    The following methods are available:
    BBP_EVENTS_ANALYZE
    Change the standard events and define your own events
    BBP_EVENTS_CATEGORIZE
    Change the standard alert categories
    BBP_EVENTS_DET_RECIPIENTS
    Change the standard recipient
    BBP_EVENTS_DET_FOLLOW_UP_URL
    Change the links contained in the alerts/in the messages, for example, for the link to the affected document
    See also: Release Information SRM Alert Management (new)!
    Requirements
    In order to receive detailed information on documents, document status, and document items, we recommend that you use the following function modules (the document GUID is available as an import parameter in the individual methods):

  • Relationship between Solution Manager Diagnostic and CCMS

    We are just now looking at Solution Manager Diagnostics and central monitoring in Solution Manager.  One thing we are not clear on, and haven't seen anything definitive on, is the relationship between these  and CCMS.
    Any insight or link to documentation would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks!
    Jeff Henke

    Solution Manager Diagnostics is a diagnostic tool, not a real-time monitoring and alerting tool.  CCMS is for real-time monitoring and alerting, and SMD does in fact get data from your CCMS agents, as well as from saposcol and Wily Introscope.
    Hope that helps,
    David.

  • Alerts and CCMS

    Hi
    #1 I have set up the alert rule and configs. To check the alert processing i had purposely entered wrong file name in my sender CC. I'm able to view the error log in RWB but the alert is not throwing up a mail. How to raise an alert if there the sender or receiver channel are not avaiable?
    #2  I had one more scenario where my mapping throwed an execption but alert is not triggering a mail. Do i require BPM for this. If no how to alert the failed messages without BPM?
    How to handle these case #1 and #2?
    Any useful howto doc on CCMS for triggering alerts is appreciated.
    <u><i>Note: No BPM involved in the above two case.</i></u>

  • Alerts in XI and CCMS

    I've read some SAP doco talking about a CCMS Central Monitoring System (CEN).  
    Does that mean having CCMS on it's own Server - and CCMS is monitoring all DEV, QAS and PRD systems.
    What is the usual way if you have R/3, BW, XI.  Which box should have CCMS on it ?   Or should it have it's own instance seperated from the rest of them ??

    Hi,
    There will be a separate instance of CCMS installed which will do the central administartion for all the components in a landscape. It can be handled by one single administrator....can have many assistants. No need of having a separate instance of CCMS for R3, XI/ PI, etc...the only thing that you need to take of is how to integrate your system with CCMS for monitoring.
    The CCMS alert monitoring infrastructure is provided by SAP free of cost.

  • Difference between Workflow and Alert management

    HI all
    Let me know the difference between workflow and alert management. ?
    In Workflow if we  want to trigger alert or mail.
    We can use SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_SEND_API1 FM send mail.
    But in alert we can use different method?
    Can i know wht the exact difference between two?

    Hi,
    email messages can be sent with both technologies...
    If you need to send just a simple email, use the ALM.
    If you need to send email and wait something adding additional flows....use the Worflow.
    Remember that with ALM is not possible to attach something to the email.
    You can add additional steps like web addresses in order to perform further activities.

  • What is ALERT Management.how to use it?

    what is ALERT Management. what is it's use.how to do ALERT Management?

    HI
    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.
    Alert Configuration:
    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
    pleae refer the following links for furtehr infromation

  • Process monitoring (PMI, Alert Management, Acknowledgments, ...)

    Hi, at the moment I face an interesting monitoring requirement. See below. I hope you experts can help me out? Many thanks for all your feedback
    REQUIREMENT
    <u>Users want to view the status of the message as it flows through the Sender, Hub(s) and Receiver(s).</u>
         Preferably without opening any other applications (nice-to-have)
                     1 central (monitoring) application
         Drill-down to the state of the message in the process pipeline (nice-to-have)
         Preferably near realtime (nice-to-have)
         Solution must be as generic and cheap/easy as possible, meaning costs:benefits effective. Pretty obvious, we don't want huge developments...
    BACKGROUND
    <u>SAP and non-SAP applications are involved in message exchange.
    Only SOAP, IDoc and XI Adapters are used.
    SAP PI, version 7.00, is the message Hub (1 Integration Server + Central AE).</u>
    POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS
    <u>PMI (end-2-end monitoring in RWB, package SPI) seems the most promising (http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/a8/a81b0b6473cb49bc34effad6eab13b/content.htm) .
    </u>
         Only covers PMI-enabled SAP-components (IE, ALE, AF, Java?),
         <i>What about non-SAP applications?</i> It looks complicated, and there is no documented API.
         User-unfriendly GUI (via the RWB), although it is centrally located
         <i>Is drilling down into a message possible?</i> For example going to an IDoc in a backend system as with BD87.
         Not really realtime (a lot of jobs required: agents, aggregation)
    <u>Alert Management (http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/3f/81023cfa699508e10000000a11402f/content.htm )</u>
         Usually reserved for error situations.
         Alerts can be raised easily by other applications (especially ABAP)
              ccBPM can be used (only for the XI part of the message exchange)
              OR the pipeline definition can be enhanced. <i>Has anyone experience with this?</i> Implementing a ZCL_PLSRV* class plus modifying the SXMSPIPEEL, SXMSPLSRV, etc. tables.
         Aggregating Alerts that all refer to 1 message exchange (“1 process”) is difficult.          <i>Has anyone experience with this?</i>     
    Drill down to the actual message not possible, must use other tools
    <u>Acknowledgements (especially application ack’s)</u>     SOAP (and other AF) Adapters can’t handle app ack’s.
              This might be bypassed by providing a generic (web)service that accepts messages that can be routed via the <pipeline>_BACK to the original message (comparable to the ALEAUD IDoc). <i>Has anyone done this before?</i>          For Senders using the SOAP Adapter the message header could be enhanced to request app ack’s (pos/neg). <i>Can this be done via a Java Module?</i> Or the IS pipeline definition could be enhanced later on. <i>Has anyone experience with this?</i> Implementing a ZCL_PLSRV* class plus modifying the SXMSPIPEEL, SXMSPLSRV, etc. tables.
         Standard ack’s are linked to the sending message, but usually don’t give very helpful information.     <i>Where can this be enhanced?</i> For ALEAUD we can modify the IDoc processing (outbound/inbound).
         <i>When are ack’s (application and system, positive and negative) actually raised? Can this be configured/adapted anywhere?</i>
         Not 1 place wherefrom the message exchanges can be monitored, but in multiple Senders.
              Too bad, but it was a nice-to-have.
         Drill down only possible in Sender (probably), must use other tools
    <u>CCMS</u>
         I don’t see that CCMS can be enhanced to cover this requirement. <i>Anyone who has a different idea?</i> Feel free to post all your opinions, how exotic these may sound (initially).
    <u>… Other ...</u>
         Maybe I took a wrong turn somewhere. If you have a very elegant but different solution, please point me in that direction. I’m quite curious…

    Hi,
    as explined above Alerts are not only from ccBPM,
    Actually alerts from SAP Alert management.
