Automatic Background Jobs Monitoring

Hi,
I'd like to ask how to setup an alert to the background job if it fails to run. How is it done in K1P box?
What I'd like to happen is to have a message sent out to the jobs owner it encountered any problems. I work in the Support Team and I'd like my team be informed automatically (via email or anything) without contacting the K1P box Owner.
Hope someone can help me here.
Thanks,

Hi,
You can create a query using SQ1. Tables you need are /SAPAPO/LISMAP and /SAPAPO/LISLOG. The query can help you to sort or order the jobs based on the status message type and many other parameters.

Hi,
in SAP Solution Manager there are actually tools to support you in implementing the Job Scheduling Management (JSM) standard and these tools cover the request, documentation, schedulign and monitoring of a job.

CCMS Background Job Monitoring

We have setup CCMS background job monitoring and use it to send alerts for failed CH_* jobs. We activated an autoreaction for Job_Monitoring_Status.
Our autoreaction method has some extra functions to suppress duplicate alerts. It uses the alert text to check this. The standard alert text for Job_Monitoring_Status includes the job id + the end time: e.g.:
u201CCH_APAC_SD_RVV50R10C_DEL_BS_S1 | 03282700 | Termin, started at 12.10.2011,03:28:27 terminated at 12.10.2011,03:28:29u201D
This will let us duplicate suppression fail. We only need the job name in the alert text.
Can we change the message class for the Job_Monitoring_Status? Do we need to write our own message class?

This is possible and perhaps the link in the thread below should help:

CCMS Background Job Monitoring Runtime Alert

Our Basis team has configured CCMS and the Background Job Monitoring for long-running jobs. They want to set up a "generic" entry (for example, * for job name) so that all jobs will be monitored for runtime longer than 1 hours (will be longer duration when moved to production). This seems to be working correctly but the alert message does not give the name of the background job that triggered the alert. The altert text is "Alert Text:3821 Sec > 3600 Sec Current value over threshold value System:DEV ". This message is coming from message class RT, number 001. How do we get the job name included in the alter message? I have looked at the messages available in message class RT but do not see one that includes a variable for job name. We do not know where to look to see what data is actually available for the alert text message and what other message classes might be possible.

Background job monitoring - alert from second failure

Hi All,
There is a need for configure monitoring for background jobs.
I have been enabled background job monitoring via SE16 and background job is visible in RZ20.
The problem is that we want to have a critical alert from second failure of certain job, not from first failure.
Seems that I need to create a new method and assigne it to background job in RZ20?
Is there a documentation how to create own method? or is there a another way to implement this monitor?
Best Regards,
Jani Mäki

Hi,
Do you want to monitor second failure on a day?
Do you know the schedule of second job run?
If yes to these questions, you can try to monitor using BPM in solution manager.

RZ20 CCMS background job monitoring not collecting updated information

System: ECC 6
In RZ20 > background job monitoring, the jobs that I am monitoring show last data collection was on November 30, 2010. However, under "backgroud service" and "background processing servers" data collection shows current date and time. This is on a Production system, and in the QA system this is working correctly.
What could be the cause of the data collection not working for just the background job monitoring?

Report layout - ME2N - Automatic background job

HI all
We are using the above report for Pending PO-RElease ie., dynamic selection - release indicator "B" thru automatic background programme schedueld thru SM36 (after setting the variant) for the relevant/concerned users.
The issue is, the report layout be default standard sap layout is taking, actually i have saved layout as PO no & date, but always, whenever background job is run, default sap report is taken in HTML.
request kindly help how i can ensure my our report layout for backgrounds jobs thru ME2N or is there any other report which can give the pending PO-Release report for my requirement.
thanks in advance
regards
srihari

I am doing same as suggested by you for all other reports, but i am not successful with ME2N, because after having your own default layout, but for background it is default taking sap report. even i have tried to delete the sap - std report format but not allowed.
if any one knows how to change the sap-default std report layout then also it's okay for us, as default report as 15 columns whereas we need only max 5 columns in report layout
thanx in advance

Background Job Monitoring

Hi everbody,
Please tell how to get the program name which r scheduled in the background jobs in SM36,37 if we know the background job name.
Thanx and regards,
Rajvinder Sahni

Hi Rajvinder,
Just look into table TBTCP. It will gives you about Background Job Step Overview.
Give background job name in field JOBNAME then it will you report name in field PROGNAME.
In addition to this there is another table which gives about Job Status is TBTCO.

Class (Priority) change in the background job

Hi,
We have a program which will pick up the file from application server and will submit to one more background job by using JOB_SUBMIT. Whenever the automatic background job has submitted from another program, by default it will take the class (priority) as 'C'. Is there any way to change the priority level from C to A throuhg JOB_SUBMIT i.e changing to higher level.
Please let me know.
regards,
Chandra

(1) Keep in memory that class "A" job must be reserved for system
(2) Nevertheless
The class is hard-coded in JOB_OPEN:
* Jobklasse setzen / NEWFLAG auf 'O'(Open) setzen
* (der Workflow-Job 'SWWDHEX_' bekommt immer Jobklasse A).
* Weiterhin bekommt ein spezieller Einplaner immer Jobklasse A
* wg. der Archivierung auf Datenbankhosts (->F.Hoffmann).
IF ( JOBNAME EQ 'SWWDHEX' ) OR ( CALLING_ABAP EQ CENTRAL_ADK_ABAP ).
GLOBAL_JOB-JOBCLASS = BTC_JOBCLASS_A.
ELSE.
GLOBAL_JOB-JOBCLASS = BTC_JOBCLASS_C.
ENDIF.
You may look at function modules BAPI_XBP_JOB_OPEN, BAPI_XBP_JOB_ADD_ABAP_STEP and BAPI_XBP_JOB_CLOSE.

How to monitor background jobs automatically

Hello,
How to monitor background jobs automatically
(we have more then 100+ jobs in a month and some jobs are repeating 4 - 5 times in a same day ) Now i am searching any salutation for monitor background jobs automatically
Let me know the options
Thanks,

Hi,
If your batch job is creating a file in SAP and sending it to another system. These are some things you could do, if you have tools and resources available.
1) When the job ( SAP program ) runs to create the file, ensure there is no file already existing in the landing zone ( AL11), if it does then do not over write, just throw an error, because the last file created did not leave the landing zone, because the other system or middle were did not pick it up. Usually when the middleware or third party system picks up your file from the landing zone, it may delete the file, so next time fresh file can be picked up. It is always good to have date and time stamp on the file that you create on the landing zone, so we could uniquely track which files were creates, when it was created and transmitted.
2) Lets say your job created the file in the landing zone, the FTP program or what ever service or tool that you use to pick the file, if it is running as per design, then it should pick it up, if not you need to see why it is not running, usually the FTP softwars like GIS will throw an error if no file is found, and we could track them.
I am sure there are many other ways to handle if the file really left the landing zone or not. Something to think about. thanks

Error in Schedule Background Job for Deadline Monitoring of swu3

While Auto Customization swu3 i am getting error message 'Output device "" not known' in 'Schedule Background Job for Deadline Monitoring'
Please advice what could be cause of it

the earlier problem of background job was solved by changing the output device assigned to user wf-batch .
regarding the transport request :
when i was trying to execute the step : "Schedule bakgrd for missed deadlines " MANUEL it was giving me an option of SAVE AND SCHEDULE . which was creating the transport request . but when i executed it automatically it worked fine without asking a request to me ... i don't know why )-: ... probablly we can specify a different interval then the standard of three minutes and which will be transported (it's just a guess) . i have executed it automatically ...
well thanks all for u r help

Regarding Dead line monitoring & Background Job

Hi Dear PMs,
plz let me know regarding Deadline Monitoring (IP30) for Maint plan. Why it is requires? only for scheduling multiple plans at a time or is their any other reason?
What is the meaning of,
1. Interval for Call Objects
2. Rescheduling included
3. Immediate start for all in IP30 screen.
Why we need to run Back ground job? - only for scheduling open & save daily in background....or for any other reason?
requested you to giv in detail...
Thanks in Advance...
Amol.

In short, as the name suggest deadline monitoring is used to monitor deadlines so that any due activity could be done well in time. Deadline monitoring helps you to automatically schedule entries that are due within this period. With the help of Deadline Monitoring, you could schedule multiple Maintenance Plans at the same time from the same transaction with respect to Plant maintenance. For different modules it could used for different purposes. In MM/WM, it could be used for mass changing the batch status. It is also used in Workflows. W.r.t PM, Using IP10, you are able to schedule maintenance plans individually, so to reduce time delays and increase efficiency, Deadline Monitoring is used.
Using F1 help on each of these fields should be helpful.
Interval of Call Objects specify the duration for which you want to execute monitoring of due entries. For example, mentioning 1 mon here would show me all the maintenance plan due for the complete month.
Immediate start for all: You can use this indicator to show whether the maintenance plans that correspond with the selection criteria are to be scheduled immediately, or whether a list of the selected maintenance plans is to be displayed.
Rescheduling Inc: You can use the automatic deadline monitoring to schedule a maintenance plan again or for the first time. If you need to reschedule any maintenance plan after having scheduled it, this indicator must be checked:

Executing in Background helps as it does not bother you to open up the ip30 screen and then print the document. The Document is printed automatically without you having to bother about it within the period u specify behind your background job settings. It could be monthly, daily, weekly, yearly etc. etc.

Background Job execution enabled via pro-active monitoring

Hi community,
We're interested in CPS Redwood to help us in proactive monitoring of background jobs (Ad Hoc and Periodic) and impacts in system performance.
The idea would be to have somehow a tool that monitor the number of available working process and system performance. When the system workload reaches a certain level, ex: 95%, this tool would intercept new jobs execution. After this, when the system workload goes down and the resources are free, the system would release all jobs to normal run again.
Is it possible via CPS Redwood?
Is there any other way to have something automatic like this?
Thanks,
Jose Antonio.

Hi Jose,
This is possible indeed using CPS. CPS can monitor various load metrics of your system, then adapt the scheduling logic if thresholds are exceeded.
In your scenario, you would basically always intercept all jobs, but normally not enforce any limits so effectively that means all jobs still run immediately. If the load is too high, CPS would enforce a limit, so then jobs will be delayed until the load is lower again.
Regards,
Anton.
