Alert Rule Configuration in SAP PI 7.3

Hello,
I am using PI 7.3. It's java stack only. I am using component based alert configuration.
AlertConsumerJob is running. But for a particular scenario, no alert is generated, although the message status is "System error". We are getting the below error for this scenario.
com.sap.engine.services.jndi.persistent.exceptions720.NameNotFoundException: Object not found in lookup of PI_Technical team.
This alert generation is working fine for others scenarios. Means, we are able to get alert mail for other scenarios.
Please advise.
Thanks & Regards,
Moumita

Alert Rule Configuration

The scenario is, On the sender side we have IDoc adapter and on receiver side we have HTTP Adapter. Do we need need Alert rule for the Adapter Engine in this scenario or just the Integration Engine Alert Rule is fine?

Alert Rules Transport

Hi Friends,
I would like to transport all my alert rules configured for my scenario at RTW of QUALITY system to PRODUCTION system. for that i found 2 options.
1. Manually enter the alert rules in RTW
2. run the report "SXMSALERT_CONFIGTRANS".
in option2: i run the report and transport request created. it shows message as "transport enrty written. alert no: ABC1234".
So now my doubt is: will this report transport all teh alert rules configured in RTW to PROD? my requirement is i need to transport only my scenario related alert rules....(out of 200 alert rules in RTW, only 10are related to my scenario and i need to transfer only those 10).
Best Regards,SARAN

Hi SARAN,
Transport Alert Categories
Go to ALRTCATDEF (In DEV) --> Transport (In TOOLBAR) --> Current Alert Category --> Create a Customizing Request and note down your request number
Go to SE09 (In DEV) --> Check customizing request and Modifiable --> Choose Display Button --> Go to your Request number --> and release the sub node and then release the request.
Go to STMS (In QA) --> Import --> Import your request
Transport Alert Rules
Create a workbench transport request manually with transaction SE09. Delete the corresponding unclassified task of that request. Double click on the transport request and click on button 'edit <-> change'. For Program ID enter R3TR, for Object Type enter TABU and for Object Name enter SXMSALERTRULES.
Now click on the button with the key symbol (located under 'Function'). Click on 'Insert row' and enter * for table key. Save the request, release it and import it in the target system.

Alert Rules vs Alert Category - Is there any limitations for multiple rules

I have an alert configuration implemented already and i want to add few more rules for the same alert category. While creating the rules for new set of scenarios, I am able to create only one rule . Is there any limitations for having the rules per category ?

Hi,
If the Suppress Multiple Alerts of This Rule checkbox is selected (default setting), then no further alerts are generated once the rule has been met until the first alert has been confirmed.
There is no limitation of creating alert rule for a particular alert category.
Check out the steps of Alert rule configuration.
Creating Alert Rules
To create an alert rule in which you use a defined alert category, proceed as follows:
       1.      Give the rule a name (Description).
       2.      Select the alert category that you want to use by clicking the corresponding category in the alert category table.
       3.      If necessary, specify conditions for the sender or receiver, or both.
○       If your rule results in alerts that must be assigned to a specific message, select the option Yes for the Bound to Message condition.
○       If your rule results in alerts that are not assigned to a message, that is, they are caused by errors that occurred before the message was sent, select the option No for the Bound to Message condition.
In this case you cannot enter any further details about the sender or receiver.
○       If the rule is to cover both cases, select the Not Relevant option.
       4.      If required, restrict the errors further to:
○       Errors reported from the Integration Engine (with or without error category or error code)
○       Errors reported from the Adapter Engine (with or without adapter type)
You can enter an asterisk (*) in steps 3 and 4. You can enter just the asterisk, or enter it at the start, end, or start and end of a string.
       5.      To add the new rule to the list of alert rules, choose Add Rule.
If the Rule Activated check box is selected (default setting), the rule is automatically activated when you add it and is displayed as active.
If the Suppress Multiple Alerts of This Rule checkbox is selected (default setting), then no further alerts are generated once the rule has been met until the first alert has been confirmed.
Once you have created a rule, it is automatically displayed in the list of alert rules. If you want to display the conditions of a rule, select a rule in the list and choose Show Conditions.
Hope this will help you.

Configuring HP-Openview to monitor alerts of CCMS in SAP system via SOLMAN

Hi All,
I need to configure CCMS in SOLMAN and then monitor the same alerts via HP-Openview because thats what is used in my company to monitor alerts.I have a few queries regarding the same:
1. Is it possible to configure CCMS in SOLMAN and then monitor the same alerts via HP-Openview.
2. How actually does HP-Openview work regarding picking up monitoring data from CCMS in SAP.
3. Does it work like CCMS would be generating logs of the alerts and stored some where and we could congigure HP-OV to look for a keyword in the logfile by giving HP-OV the path of that logfile and as soon as it comes across that keyword it would generate an alert.
4. Do we need any addon to be downloaded ( also want to know whether its free or cost is involved) and configured in SAP under CCMS that would help Hp-OV to detect alerts.

Error while defining alert rule.

Hi ,
I am working with Alert framework and it is triggering the mail when ever message is failing at IE or AE level.
I have defined the following container variable of ABAP data type
SXMS_FROM_SERVICE                  SXI_FROM_SERVICE
SXMS_FROM_NAMESPACE          SXI_FROM_ACTION_NS
SXMS_FROM_INTERFACE          SXI_FROM_ACTION
SXMS_TO_SERVICE               SXI_TO_SERVICE
SXMS_TO_NAMESPACE                  SXI_TO_ACTION_NS
SXMS_TO_INTERFACE                   SXI_TO_ACTION.
and my long text is defined as
Sender service = &SXMS_FROM_SERVICE&
Sender namespace = &SXMS_FROM_NAMESPACE&
Sender interface = &SXMS_FROM_INTERFACE&
Receiver service = &SXMS_TO_SERVICE&
Receiver namespace = &SXMS_TO_NAMESPACE&
Receiver interface = &SXMS_TO_INTERFACE&
Now I am defining 2 alert rule one for IE and one for AE by using above alert categories.
now My Question
1. When I am putting * for sender Interface and giving receiver Interface detail it is working fine for AE errors.but it is not working when i am giving sender Interface description and putting * for receiver interface description.
I have checked several time that i am giving correct entry for sender Interface detail.
2.my long text giving the wrong Information.
when i have defined my sender interface detail and giving * for receiver interface at my alert rule ,it is copying the sender interface name and namespace name to the receiver interface and namespace name .
EX-
Sender service = ECC1
Sender namespace = testInterface
Sender interface =urn:test.com
Receiver service = 3party1
Receiver namespace = testInterface
Receiver interface = urn:test.com
and reverse is happening when I am giving * for sender detail and entry for receiver detail.
I think these container variable get filled at run time and it has to give correct detail in long text.
please help in knowing why this is happening.

Navneet

Hi..
please try this....Goto KSR2_VBP.
THere are two strategies.. 01 and 02.
01 for manual creation of settlement rules
02 for auto creation..
first check whether 01 and 02 are in your plant.
Sales and distrib....basic functions......auto gen. of settlement rules.......
here you ll find two activities.
(1)maintaining the settlement strategies and
(2)activating one among them.
If you activate 02, your problem will be solved..

Alert rules in Quality

When I am trying to create the alert rules in quality of RWB it is throwing error code Error Code 10061: Connection refused.
1. Do I required any authorizations in quality to define alert rules as I already had authorization for the transaction: SAP_ALM_CUSTOMIZER in quality.
2. I want to configure the Email alerts to be send to recipients in quality also. I have done the required configuration in SCOT and SU01 for the dev system to receive mails. Do I have to need configure SCOTu2013SMTP port setting in quality also?

Hi Praveen,
> When I am trying to create the alert rules in quality of RWB it is throwing error code Error Code 10061: Connection refused.
Check if the ECC system exists and the Technical system is configured properly.
Check this link in 1st question
http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/EP/TroubleshootingSAPJavaConnector%28JCo%29
> 1. Do I required any authorizations in quality to define alert rules as I already had authorization for the transaction: SAP_ALM_CUSTOMIZER in quality.
Normal roles is enough (what roles you have in the Dev system)
> 2. I want to configure the Email alerts to be send to recipients in quality also. I have done the required configuration in SCOT and SU01 for the dev system to receive mails. Do I have to need configure SCOTu2013SMTP port setting in quality also?
In the SCOT you hahe to give the Mail server IP address and port details.

What can be monitored using Alert rule via Runtime workbench? Help!

Hi Experts,
In the alert configuration in XI runtime workbench, there is something called Alert Rule. Under Alert Rule there are options where we can give sender/receiver interfaces, channel, etc.
What exactly we can monitor using this option?
If my receiver is another SAP R/3 system then using this can I send alert when the SAP R/3 is down?
Similary if my sender is also SAP R/3 then can I monitor if this system is down?
What more can we monitor with this?
Kindly help!
Thanks
Gopal

Hi,
Alert rule is not at all used for monitoring directly. it can act as a filter for your alert category. so first you must have created an alert category.
you can specify the sender/receiver party,service,interface and namespace in a alert rule after choosing a alert category.
you can also specify where you are expecting an error like integration engine or adapter engine
if you define an alert category with an alert rule, no restrictions then you will get all alerts for all sort of errors from all of your interfaces.
so by specifying an alert rule you are restricting an alert category that you created to a particular sender service or namespce etc..
to get step by step idea of how to create alerts see the below blogs

Authorization to Create the Alert Rules?

Hello All,
I created the Alert category in ALRTCATDEF transaction, now when i want to create the Alert rules in RWB.
Add Rule and Change Rule is in disable mode. my user have SAP_XI_ADMINISTRATOR authorization,
please tell me any other authorization role required to create the alert rules in RWB.
Thanks and Regards,
chinna

Hi,
Steps of alert configuration :
Prerequisites
The following prerequisites have to be met in order to use the Alert Management (ALM):
u2022 For using the Alert Inbox (BSP based display program of ALM), the corresponding service has to be activated in the service maintenance transaction SICF. Choose Default_host ® sap ® bc ® bsp ® sap ® alert inbox, and Activate in the context menu.
u2022 For customizing or administration of the Alert Management the corresponding authorization role has to be assigned. The end users do not need any additional authorization.
u2022 The central alert server must be maintained as an RFC destination in transaction SM59 in the local system. If there is no suitable user, you have to create a user for the RFC connection in the central alert system in transaction SU01. To make this RFC destination known as the RFC destination of the Alert Management System in the local system, the central alert server must also be selected as the RFC destination in transaction SALRT1 of the local system or in Settings ® RFC-Destination of Alert Server.
If the central alert server is running on the local system in the same client, you do not have to maintain an RFC destination. In this case, you can simply enter NONE in transaction SALRT1.
u2022 If external communication types, such as e-mail, SMS, and fax are used, these communication types must be correctly configured in SAPconnect, because the alerts are then sent from the central alert system via SAPconnect.
Process Flow
The following describes the process flow from alert configuration (transaction ALRTCATDEF) to alert display and confirmation (for example in the alert inbox transaction ALRTINBOX):
1. Optional: You can define alert classifications. These are useful to group alert categories. For example, you can create an alert classification CRM that contains alert categories referring to CRM. Alert classifications can now have subclassifications. This enables you to build up your own classification hierarchy. Especially, if you use the Alert Mangement (ALM) extensively, classification and subclassification help you to organize your ALM alert landscape and to have a clear overview.
2. For different types of alerts you have to define different categories. The category contains various properties and other specifications that define the alerts within that category, for example expiry date, or the escalation recipient. You can define an alert category to suit your business requirements and assign the category to the corresponding classification. For example, for the alert classification CRM you can create the alert categories Contract Cancelled and Decrease in Sales. When the critical situation defined in the alert category arises, the system recognizes this and sends an alert instance of this category to the recipients determined. The alerts can always be found in the display programs configured for the recipient (UWL, application-specific program, or alert inbox). Additionally, the alerts are sent via eventual external communication channels, such as e-mail, sms, or fax.
3. You have to determine recipients so that the Alert Management knows who the recipients of alerts of a particular category are and that the correct parties are informed.
4. You can configure the way how alerts are processed. For the general use of the Alert Management you do not have to change the default settings. However, if for example you want to send alerts to third-party systems, or to be able to confirm alerts by SMS/Internet mail, or to have logs written, then you have to configure alert processing.
5. There is a number of Alert Management administration reports that you must schedule according to your requirements. For example, report RSALERTPROC must be executed in order to enable escalation.
6. Alerts of a particular category must be triggered by an application at runtime. Triggering alerts can be done in various ways. You can call a function module directly or use middleware components that trigger alerts, such as the Business Object Repository (BOR), Post Processing Framework (PPF), SAP Workflow, or CCMS.
7. Recipients can view the alerts assigned to them in the UWL of Enteprise Portal, in application-specific display programs, or in the alert inbox. In addition, alerts can be received as e-mail, SMS, or fax, if these external communication channels are configured in SAPconnect.
8. If the problem causing the alert is solved by a recipient, the recipient can confirm the alert, this means its status is changed and it will not be delivered, escalated, or displayed anymore. Alerts are generally confirmed by the recipient in the display program, such as the UWL or Alert Inbox. However, if an alert is sent by Internet mail or SMS message, it is also possible to confirm it by sending an Internet mail or SMS message back to the SAP system. Alert Management uses inbound processing for this.

Alert rule config

Hi,
please help me out in defining the "alert rule"
i configured but no messages.kindly provide links
srini

Alert Configuration:- You use alert configuration to have the system informed you about the errors that occurs during message processing.
*Used for alerts that occurs at IE.
Alert Management: When you define the integration process you can specify that if a particular situation occurs at runtime a alert has to be thrown using alert management.
*Used to handle business specific errors.
For example if the stock falls below certain level an alert has to be thorwn to the specified user using the integration process in this case you have to follow steps defined in alert management
Defining Alert Categories
During alert category definition, you specify the alert text, expiry time, escalation, and all other conditions related to the sending of this kind of alert.
1. Ensure that you are in change mode in the alert category definition environment (transaction ALRTCATDEF).
2. Choose Create Alert Category.
3. In the Alert Category column, enter a technical key. Choose a key that describes the situation that triggers the alert, such as CUSTCANC for a category responding to a customer cancellation. This key is language-independent and identifies the alert category. The standard namespace convention applies to the key, this means keys Z* und Y* belong to the customer name space.
4. On the Properties tab page:
a. In the Description field, enter a description for the alert category. Choose a description that is informative with respect to the content of the alert category. The description is language-dependent.
b. If required, you can select a classification in the Classification field. If you do not choose a specific classification, the category is stored in the classification folder Unclassified. For more information on classifications, see Alert Classification.
c. In the Max. No. of Dels field, specify a maximum number of times that an alert of this category is to be delivered if it is not confirmed. This refers to delivery using a communication channel other than to the recipients display program (UWL, application-specific program, or alert inbox).
d. Select Dynamic Text if the texts of the alert category cannot be defined at this stage. This refers to situations in which the texts are not known until runtime, for example when CCMS Alerts are forwarded to ALM.
No translation can be performed for alerts with dynamic text. System messages can be entered manually in several languages.
e. In the Expiry Time in Min. field, you can enter a life span for alerts of this category if the alerts will no longer be relevant after a specific period of time. If the expiry time elapses, the alert is removed from the alert inbox and is no longer delivered using any other channel.
Expiry times can be derived from various sources. Priority is given first to the data provided by the triggering application, second to the BAdI ALERT_EXP_DATE, and third to this field in the alert category definition. If none is found in any of these sources, the default expiry of 31.12.2099 applies.
f. If you wish to specify an escalation recipient, select Escalation Active and enter the escalation recipient. Also specify a tolerance time in minutes. When escalation is active for an alert category, an alert is escalated if none of the alert recipients has confirmed the alert after this tolerance time. The escalation recipient is also informed that he or she has received the alert because of an escalation.
The escalation functionality is based on the administrator report RSALERTPROC. This report has to be scheduled as a regular job. For information on this report.
5. On the Container tab page, define any variables that you may want to use in the short text or long text. You can also define other application-specific variables, such as company code or material number. These variables are then replaced at runtime with values from the application. For more information, .
6. On the Short and Long Text tab page, enter texts for the alert category. You can include text variables referring to elements of the alert container or system symbols. In the case of a container element, the variable must be defined in the alert container. The entry in the text must be in the form &<ElementName>&.
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.
7. On the Optional Subsequent Activities tab page, you can enter URLs for subsequent activities. If you trigger your alerts by calling a function module, you can also specify dynamic subsequent activities. For more information, see Triggering by Calling a Function Module Directly in Triggering Alerts.
8. Save your entries.
You create an alert category to use in alert rules.
Prerequisites
You have started the Runtime Workbench from the SAP Exchange Infrastructure start page and have selected the Alert Configuration tab page on the initial screen.
Procedure
To create an alert category, proceed as follows:
1. Choose Create Alert Category.
You can also create the alert category directly by calling transaction ALRTCATDEF. In both cases you require the authorizations of the role SAP_XI_ADMINISTRATOR.
2. Enter the following values:
The receiver of the alert
The title of the alert
The text of the alert, including container variables that are automatically created and filled at runtime.
The follow-up activity
Specify the URL of the required follow-up activity. At runtime, the link address of message monitoring is always entered as the standard follow-up activity.
3. Once you have created a new alert category, choose Update Table to display the category in the alert category selection table
