Autom. replication of EarlyWatch Alerts in 2nd Solution Manager possible?

Hi experts,
I just received a question from a customer whether it is possible to automatic replicate EarlyWatch Alerts generated for systems in SolMan A to SolMan B without having all satellite systems connected to SolMan B.
There are two reports available I know: BDL_GET_SESSION_DATA and BDL_GET_DATA_AND_CREATE_SESSIO
At least via the last report it is possible to read the session number in SolMan A and create a new session with this data in SolMan B. But it is not possible to assign the sessions to a solution or run it as daily job...
Do you know if there is such a functionality in SAP standard or do we need to build our own solution here?
Regards, Richard

Hello,
This is how you genrate an EWA for on Satellite system in two Solution Manager systems.
One will be created automatically via the Maintenance Package (providing you followed best practices) or periodic EarlyWatch of Solution Manager Task if you are not follwoing best practices.
Say we have Solution Manager A & B. In SDCCN in RFC Destinations, we define Solution Manager A as the Master.
So this will be where the EWA task created by the Maintenace Package task will be sent.
For the Solution Manager B you created a Earlywatch periodci task, only you make the RFC Destination the SM<SID>CLNT<NO#>_BACK (where the SID is the SID of Solman B) Yoy can refer to SAP NOTE 207223, which is the Note that explains how to send an EWA to SAP. Its the exactsame process, but the destination is changed to the second Solution Manager.
The data comes from the Satellite/managed system, but can be directed to different destinations.
But you can't send the data from Solution Manager A to Solution Manager B.
You can send the data to Solution Manager A & B and process the data on A and on B, or any other Solman system.

Paul

Early Watch Alerts Problem in Solution Manager

Hello,
I am trying to configure EWA for my SAP R/3 systems in Solution Manager 3.2. RFC connections are working fine. EWA report that is getting generated is showing me following problem :
EarlyWatch Alert - R/3 System**********
Download Problem
We could not perform a correct analysis because essential parts of the download data are missing. The cause is probably a problem with data collection or transfer.
Recommendation: Please check the log for this session in the Service Data Control Center (execute transaction SDCC or the new SDCCN in your system). If an error entry is listed, perform the Service Preparation Check.
Implementation: To perform the Service Preparation Check, execute transaction SDCC and choose Information-> Service prep. check or if you use SDCCN create a new task 'Service Preparation Check'.
The result of Service Preparation check ( as recommended) is not throwing any error.
Can anyone help me out on this.
Regards,
Yashodhan

Hello Yashodhan Mujumdar,
we have warnings about differences in the function interface, but all works, so we ignore them.
But the missing data interface seems to be the error.
Did you read note 781680?
Do you have the newest ST-PI (2005_1_xxx SP3) and ST/A-PI (01G_xxx, this is an installation, no patch)? Do you have the right flavour of ST/A-PI?
Are ST03N and ST06 working?
Do you refresh service definitions from sapnet? Did you generate (after service refresh) on the solution manager system the includes (SPRO -> SAP Solution Manager -> Basic settings -> SAP Solution Manager System -> Operations -> Setup Service Data Control Center -> Generate Includes....
If these checks are all ok you might deactivate SDCCN both in satellite system and solution manager (SMSY -> Goto -> Solution Manager Operations -> Administration SDCCN) and activate it again.
If this doesn't work you might use the big hammer:
1) delete all the service definitions in satellite system like described in note 727998
2) delete all entries in table /BDL/_GENER (satellite system)
3) create in SolMan system a new session in order to collect and send data for this session in satellite system; if you don't see the session in the satellite system please execute there the "Maintenance Package"
4) elaborate the data for this new session in SolMan system
If all this doesn't help, open a message in sapnet
Bye

Question about Alert Framework in Solution Manager

Hi all,
We are planning to use Solution Manager as Central Monitoring Server, so I want to know what the advantage to use Solution Manager is, especially in Alerting.
We can define auto-reaction methods for monitors to send CCMS alerts to Alert Framework where the alerts can be forwarded to the personal responsible via Email or CCMS.
Is there any difference when using Solution Manager? Which additional functions dose Solution Manager provide in alerting?
In normal SAP Alert Framework, you can only define one receipt for escalation. Can Solution Manager support multiple level escalation? For example, an alert is sent to A, if the Alert is not confirmed by A, then the alert is forwarded to B automatically. The same way the alert can be forwarded to further persons.
Any idea?
Thanks!
Regards,
Hui

Hi Hui,
On my opinion there is no any advantage in useíng SAP Solution Manager as central alerting systems in respect to RZ20. The arguments are as follows:
- in SAP Solution Mnager you have performance restrictions on number of alerts to be displayed in one screen caused by the fact that the alerts are displayed in HTTP format
- All the customizing in SAP Solution Manager for System Monitoring is Solution specific and not transportable. It means that if you have got corrupted your system monitoring session (that happens not seldom) your settings are lost. If you have created another Solution for the same systems you have to perform customizing from the scratch
- Customizing is also not very esay to do. I would do recommend to use "User defined Alerts" Please have a look at the SAP Note 1023959 fro this topc
- SAP Solution Manager does not provide alerting mechanism -> you have to relay to ALM in any case. Here by the way to your second question I would say that it is possible implement exactly process you have described. In the ALM category you can use button escallation to define another person that would be informed via e-mail in case the first Recipient have not completed alert from this category within predefined time
+ The only feature that is unique with System Monitoring with SAP Solution Mnager is the possibility to change threshold values for all the MTEs / MTE Classes that are defined in User Define Alerts an one button click
At the conclussion I would say that there are some custommers that are using SM as monitoring platform But more pragmatical would be to configure RZ20 with help of Rule-based alerts and self- defined system groups and use ALM as alerting infrastructure. In this case you can save in plain XML file your Alert configuration and export it in any other system. ALM has on my opinion enogh functionality for alerting

Configuring the Alert monitoring of Solution Manager 4.0

Dear all,
How can I notify from the central monitoring system when alerts happened?
I have already create and assign auto-reaction method to specific monitor attribute with alerts, but nothing happend. I even looked at the table CSMCENTOOL where the alert data suppose to stored, and the table is still empty.
I will be greatfull if anyone can provide me appropriate document in this matter, or guide me with a list of things that need to be done.
Kind regards,
Yagel

Hi Kai,
Thanks for your quick response.
I have already create and assign the central auto-reaction method exactly as in the example,
and when I try to start the auto-reaction method I receive the alert information "Cannot determine data for method DUMMY_TOLL_FOR_DOUBLEHOP".
I have overcome this alert information by changing the excute method of the defined central auto-reaction from Only in central system, trigged by CCMS agents to Periodically in process(Short running program), and still, nothing notify when alert happened.
Should I configure the "Related Solution Manager configuration guides on SDN" which describe in the bottom blug as well?
I also didn't understand you when you say to send from SAP-System to another account?
Thanks in advance,
yagel.

Automating uploading of test case through SOLAR02 - Solution Manager

Hi
Currently our client is uploading hundreds of test cases into SOLUTION MANAGER manually, they have lots of test cases to be uploaded, and doing it manual is a tedious process.
Client is requesting us to develop a program which will automate the feature of uploading the test cases into SOLUTION MANAGER.
Detailed requirements :
Client needs a Program to be developed in such a that, client will provide 'Project name', 'Business Scenarios' and the 'Business Process'. Also provides the folder on the desktop system with the test case file.
Once user make this selection it(program to be developed) should upload the test document (XLS File) will be saved under a particular folder and also the manual steps maintained in the test case get uploaded.
To meet the above requirement we are in process of debugging (tcode: SOLAR02) to check if there is any function modules or BAPI to upload the test documents and the respective test cased to develop this program, but we could not make any progress.
Any help in this regard is highly appreciated.
Many Many Thanks in advacne.
Ramesh.

Hello,
we had this need a year ago and got the answer that it's not possible to upload several documents at one time automaticly.
There should be a SAP partner offering a solution for it, but he could only offer it for a totaly new Solution Manager environment and not for a database which has already content in it.
Sorry, we would also be happy to have an automated solution.

Readonly Access to Solution Manager possible?

Hello experts,
at the moment we are using Solution Manager mainly for managing the
system landscape and projects/Business blueprint.
My question, which role needs to be assigned if we want to give a user
readonly access to projects (RMMAIN)?
In RMMAIN is it possible to give readonly access to one project and
change access to another project?
Is it possible to give full readonly permission to the Solution Manager?
Thanks a lot in advance for your help,
Manfred

Thanks for your help.especially the mentioning of the object S_PROJECT proved to be invaluable!
However, in the end some-else suggested to use the solution manager display role SAP_SOL_RO_COMP. This is a composite role holding all (or at least the most important) display roles regarding SOLMAN. I then just copied these single roles to my namespace and adjusted the S_PROJECT field according to my needs. Then I assigned these roles to the target user.
Thanks again for your help,
Best regards
Manfred

How to Configure Solution Manager for 1.Download SuppPacks 2. Monitoring 3

We recently upgraded to ECC 6.0 and installed Solution Man., very vanilla. Basically just to get the Key to do the upgrade with.
I would really appreciate it if someone could share any documentation that would provide guidance on how to now further configure SolMan for the following
1. Monitor our Landscape which comprises of ABAP ECC (java is installed though not actively using), and SAP BI 7.0
Sandbox, Dev, QAS and Prdn for BOTH ECC & BI
2. Download Support Patches from SAP Marketplace (currently we have had to donwload the long way with download manager creating a message to get them apporoved whew... this is work..)
3. Add messages to SAP Market Place (thru SolMan)
4 Possibly monitor security and manage userids etc (if possible)
And if there is functionality that will make the BASIS experience better I would definitely appreciate it. We don't need the help desk as we already have it ,but, we may take advantage of Project documentation
I would really really appreciate it if someone could advise
Kind Regards & Thank You
Maria

Hi Maria,
With solution manager you can definitely do a world of things, below is a list inclusive of the features you wanted:
1. Dowload SP-Stacks, etc - you will have to configure Maintenance Optimizer for this (MOPZ).
2. Monitoring - you can monitor your ABAP and JAVA stacks using the monitoring features of CCMS which is embedded in Solution Manager, please have a look at the monitoring setup guide (for NW04S) in the Service Marketplace. Basically, it uses agents such as SAPCCMSR for JAVA Stacks and SAPCCM4X for ABAP stacks.
3. You can also configure availability monitoring using th same guide as above - this uses the CCMSPING tool.
4. You can monitor your business processes using the BPM/BPMon features of solution manager - you will also get this guide in http://service.sap.com/solutionmanager.
5. You can scheule your earlywatch alerts (EWAs) in solution manager system - have a look at the following link for this:
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/e0f35bf3-14a3-2910-abb8-89a7a294cedb
6. You can also have DBACOCKPIT on your Solution Manager system and have it tomonitor backups, etc on your satellite systems. For thsi have a look at SAP notes 1028624, 1025707 and 1027146 (and the DBACOKPIT guide in SAP Note 1028624).
Hope this is helpful. Kindly award points if useful.

URL (1, 2) needs authentication, appears a pop-up to type usr/pwd
URL (3) is anonymous, Ive added usr/pwd in order to pass logon and It works ok.
My problem is that when I first access to anonymous URL(3), and after, I return to html file, to access other URLs(1 or 2), these URLs dont appear logon pop-up to authenticate.
Does anyone know about this ?
Regards,
Raul

Hi Raul,
The problem is : when you access link 3 , you are authenticated with user : ES02532022k and password=endesa, an one time authenticated ,the system not inquiry logon pop-up anymore.
My suggestion is NOT access link with login and pass...
I hope this help you..

Storage of QTP scripts in Solution Manager

Hi,
I am using QTP to do automated testing. I am also using Solution Manager Test Work Bench for doing the test plan management. The QTP script that is created is uploaded to eCATT in standalone mode. I am able to run this QTP scripts from eCATT. But the problem that I am facing is in Solution Manager in the Business Process Tree when I go to the Test Case Tab and search for the test script I am not able to find it there.
Regards
Rejin

Hi Rejin,
You have to first create a Test Configuration for your test script. This you can do by going into your test script from TCODE "SECATT" and follow the menu path Utilities/Test Configuration/Create, this will create a Test Configuration with the same name as your script. Now you can goto to the Solution Manager business process and enter you Test Configuration in the Test Case Tab.

Kernel Level w/Solution Manager 3.2?

Sorry for my ignorance.
My latest earlywatch report for our Solution manager 3.2 (Currently on Kernel 6.20 LVL57)is asking that our Kernel be upgraded to 700_REL PL 22.
Is this accurate? Anyone have a note regarding this?
Thanks in Advance.
MB

Hi Michael:
Your current kernel 6.20 is unsupported by SAP as of July 2005; you should upgrade ASAP to at least 6.40 latest patch level. You can also see if the current 7.00 kernel is also backward compatible for a 6.20 WAS (you Solution Manager 3.2) if so, you can upgrade your current kernel directly to 7.00 latest patch level.
Hope this helps!

No EarlyWatch Alert for Solution Manager task in SDCCN

Hello All,
We have configured SAP Solution Manager and managed system to generate EWA report.
In Solman, we have created the system, logical system and solution. We have activated the managed system in Setup EarlyWatch Alert in Solman.
In Managed system, we have activated SDCCN, assigned BACK RFC, created Maintenance package and refresh sessions.
However, after completing the Maintenance package task there is no EarlyWatch Alert for Solution Manager task created in managed system. We have reviewed the task logs and found no errors.
In Solman, when we create EWA for today's date the status is showing with an Hour glass stating that "Wait for session data: SAP EarlyWatch Alert and session number"
Kindly assist us in fixing this issue
Thanks in advance

Satish

Hi
the task "early watch alert for solution manager" created automatically when did you perform the task "refreh session" or "Maintenance Package"
please create the relevant task, via : SDCCN -> Task -> Create ->Request session data ->Periodic -> Earlywatch Alert -> Continue.
'Schedule' the start date of the first session and - Task -- create Click on 'Refresh sessions' - Press 'Enter' - Select 'Now', to schedule the job 'immediately. once you create the relevant tasks you go by, in the Menu - Goto -> start - to activate the Earlywatch alert session Now, you can check the finished EWA task in 'done' tab.
Login to Solution Manager, goto trx. DSWP --> Select your solution, Solution Monitoring - Earlywatch alert - Click on Earlywatch alert --> start service processing --> Press 'OK' to start the background job - click 'Refresh'
Now, you can see the 'Early watch alert' in the green colour .
