Basic Strategy / Best Practices for System Monitoring with Solution Manager

I am very new to SAP and the Basis group at my company. I will be working on a project to identify the best practices of System and Service level monitoring using Solution Manager. I have read a good amount about SAP Solution Manager and the concept of monitoring but need to begin mapping out a monitoring strategy.
We currently utilize the RZ20 transaction and basic CCMS monitors such as watching for update errors, availability, short dumps, etc.. What else should be monitored in order to proactively find possible issues. Are there any best practices you all have found when implimenting Monitoring for new solutions added to the SAP landscape.... what are common things we would want to monitor over say ERP, CRM, SRM, etc?
Thanks in advance for any comments or suggestions!

Hi Mike,
Did you try the following link ?
If not, it may be useful to some extent:
http://service.sap.com/bestpractices
---> Cross-Industry Packages ---> Best Practices for Solution Management
You have quite a few documents there - those on BPM may also cover Solution Monitoring aspects.

  • System Monitoring with Solution Manager Ehp1

    Hi,
    I'm Tomas Piqueres, and I'm working in a VAR SAP with Solution Manager.
    Recently, we installed Solution Manager Ehp1 and we are trying to configure it for System Monitoring. When I worked with Solution Manager SP17 I used to go to transaction RZ21 to add the system I wanted to monitoring and then put the SID and RFCs of the system.
    Now with Solution Manager Ehp1, when I create the system in transaction RZ21, first I have to set the Component Type to Be Monitored and then the SID, Message Server Logon Group, the client and user are set automatically, and the password I've set to user CSMREG.
    when I fill all the entries, I can see the RFCs used for the monitoring of the system. Those RFCs are set automatically:
    <SID>_RZ20_COLLECT
    <SID>_RZ20_ANALYZE
    I can't edit those RFCs, so I have to create it manually. I check that RFCs destination works fine and both pass the authorization test, so when I try to save the system at transaction RZ21, I see the following errors:
    <SID>_RZ20_COLLECT_123539Error when opening an RFC connection
    Error during remote call of SAL_MS_GET_LOCAL_MS_INFO function: Error when opening an RFC connection
    Error during remote call of SALC function: Error when opening an RFC connection
    Error during remote call of RFC1 function: Error when opening an RFC connection
    I've been looking for information about those errors and how to monitoring with Solution Manager Ehp1, but I haven't found anything usefull.
    Please, Could you help me?
    Thanks and regards,
    Tomas.

    Tomas,
    I need to configure EWA from my Solman system and I completed the steps (defining and creation of RFC destinations to the target systems from my Solman system).  I downloaded the lates ccmsagent file from the market place based my target system configurations.

  • Best practices for apps integration with third party systems ?

    Hi all
    I would like to know if there is any document from oracle or from your own regarding best practices for apps integration with third party systems.
    For example, in particular, let's say we need customization in a given module(ex:payables) need to provide data to a third party system, consider following:
    outbound interface:
    1)should third party system should be given with direct access to oracle database to access a particular payments data information table/view to look for data ?
    2) should oracle create a file to third party system, so that it can read and do what it need to do?
    inbound:
    1) should third party should directly login and insert data into tables which holds response data?
    2) again, should third party create file and oralce apps will pick up for further processing?
    again, there could be lot of company specific scenarios like it has to be real time or not... etc...
    How does companies make sure third party systems are not directly dipping into other systems (oracle apps/others), so that it will follow certain integration best practices.
    how does enterprise architectute will play a role in this? can we apply SOA standards? should use request/reply using Tibco etc?
    Many oracle apps implementations customizations are more or less directly interacting with third party systems by including code to login into respective third party systems and vice versa.
    Let me your know if you have done differently and that would help oracle apps community.
    thanks
    rrb.

    you want to send idoc to third party system (NONSAP).
    what kind of system is it? can it handle http requests
    or
    can it handle webservice?
    which version of R/3 you are using?
    what is the mechanism the receiving system has, to receive data?
    Regards

  • Best practice for sharing data with model window

    Hi team,
    what would the best practice for sharing data with a modal
    window be ? I use a modal window to display record details from a
    record list, but i am not quite sure how to access the data from
    the components in the main application in the modal window.
    Any hints would be welcome
    Best
    Frank

    Pass a reference to the parent into the modal popup. Then you
    can reference anything in the parent scope.
    I haven't done this i 2.0 yet so I can't give you code. I'll
    post if I do.
    Oh, also, you can reference the parent using parentDocument.
    So in the popup you could do:
    parentDocument.myPublicVariable = "whatever";

  • System Monitoring in Solution Manager 4.0

    Hi all,
    I want to set up system monitoring for landscape BW, ECC and SCM systems using Solution Manager 4.0 and am new to Sol Man.
    So could anyone please help me with the steps.
    Thanks in advance,
    Sandeep.

    Sandeep,
    Trust me, there is no one resource that you can refer to and complete this system monitoring project. I recently configured this a couple of days ago. I can tell you that I haven't completed it yet. I have only completed the configuring the 'System Monitoring' part of it. I am yet to define monitors so that, I can monitor what I want of the satellite systems. So far, it took me about 4 days. Let me point out the basic steps you need to follow. Beyond that, please refer to the links I paste below:
    Steps to configure 'System Monitoring' in Solution Manager:
    1. Follow the 'Solution Manager Preparation' found under SPRO --> Solution Manager --> Read Me.
    2. Make sure you have the latest ST-ICO and ST-SER installed in your Solution Manager (Note: 892412).
    3. Make sure the Solution Manager has the latest support packages applied.
    4. Prepare the 'Satellite Systems' as per note 455356:
         a. Create the role 'SAP_BC_CSMREG' (if it doesn't exist) with the following authorization objects
              --> S_CCM_RECV (with the objects and values mentioned in the above note)
              --> S_RFC (with the objects and values mentioned in the above note)
              --> S_RZL_ADM (with the objects and values mentioned in the above note)
              --> S_CUS_CMP (with the objects and values mentioned in the above note)
         b. Create a 'communication' user CSMREG (if it doesn't exist) and assign the profile S_CSMREG
    5. Create the user CSMREG in Solution Manager using RZ21 transaction
              -->RZ21 --> Technical Infrastructure --> Configure Central System --> Create CSMREG user (Provide the required password and confirm).
    6. An agent needs to be registered in all the satellite systems that collects the monitor statistics and pass on to the Solution Manager. Before registering the agent in the satellite system, a 'CSMCONF' file has to be generated in the Solution Manager and store it in a central location which, will be used by the CCMS agent while registration. This CSMCONF file holds the communication details for the agent to talk to the Solution Manager. To create CSMCONF file, proceed as follows:
              --> RZ21 --> Technical Infrastructure --> Configure Central System --> Create Start CSMCONF for Agents
              --> Store the file in a central location that can be accessed by the satellite system/s.
    7. In the satellite system, copy the file 'CSMCONF' to the working directory of SAPCCM4X (F:\usr\sap\PD1\SYS\DVEBMGS01\log\sapccm4x - for example. If the 'sapccm4x' folder does not exist, create one).
    8. Copy the downloaded 'SAPCCM4X.exe' file to the kernel directory on the satellite system.
    9. Execute "sapccm4x -R pf=<path of the instance profile>". This should ask for the 'CSMREG' password and the admin user password on the solution manager system. Please input the same and confirm other questions. Upon confirmation, the CCMS agent should be registered in the satellite system.
    10.Make sure you establish the trusted RFC connection on the Solution Manager to the satellite system you would want to monitor. This you can do from 'SMSY' transaction.
    11.After successfully creating the RFC connections, and assigning the system to a logical component, please go to transaction, 'SOLUTION_MANAGER'. You can see the monitored system in the System Overview.
    Below are the reference links:
    Weblogs Related to Solution Manager
    Hope this helps. Award with relevant points if my response is helpful.
    Thank you.

  • System Monitoring though Solution Manager

    Hi ,
    Can someone tell me SAP Notes for doing system monitoring through Solution Manager if i don`t want to use CCMS .

    Hi
    I think you are looking for Central monitoring using Solman .. If yes please go through the following links
    http://service.sap.com/moniotring
    https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/docs?rid=/webcontent/uuid/30237989-0901-0010-70a4-944691eb5e52 [original link is broken]
    You are still going to use CCMS but if an alert occurs in satelite system , it will forward this alrt to Solman and solman will send out the alert .This happens if you configure central auto reaction , You can also monitor other system by adding the systems to Solman using SMSY_SETUP/SMSY  and define solution using DSWP/SOLUTION_MANAGER . These are well documented with screens in
    http://service.sap.com/rkt --> Solution manager --> Solman Manager < rel > --> Technology Consultants and System Administrator     
    I dont think there is any note which talks about the entire configuration
    Thanks

  • Best Practices for MDS Monitoring

    We are deploying Solarwinds and would like some tips on what would be useful to monitor on MDS switches.  Of course, the normal port utilization, cpu, interface counters are already set up, but thought I would check to see if anyone has any suggestions on any other OID's I should look into.
    Thanks!

    1.System monitoring for one of the satellite systems has been configured in solution manager (through DSWP - Setup system monitoring) using RFC connections(Read and Trusted RFCs generated in SMSY).
    2.Installed CCMS Agent on the satellite system and registered to solution manager system.
    RZ21 -> Remote Agent Status shows online.
    Should something else to be done (settings, background jobs, configuration )in Solman or satellite system to make  communication to satellite via CCMS agent primary for system monitoring?
    How do i get to see the satellite system's monitoring context in Solution manager?
    Please help me out
    Thanks

    Below are the activities completed:
    1) Through template installed I have rgeisterd the system into Solman SLD.
    2) Sync completed succfully exact product version is shwoing in solman SLD
    3) after that I have checked in SMSY and LMDB its showing prefectly
    4) But in SMSY its shwoing only under technical system,not showing product systems
    5) I have assigned in product system in LMDB
    Now the issues while selecting the system group and logical componensts I have created one logical componnets -but in that SAP NW 7.4 is not showing and I have assumed SAP NW 7.3 EHP1 after creating my newly create dsystem is not shwoing in drop down.

    Advance Thanks

    Hi,
    re-check if the 7.4 system is correctly registered in the solman SLD system.
    Re-check LMDB definition for your 7.4 as JAVA system. you have to manually created the Product system. Ensure all the Component and definitions are correct.
    Also do a verrification run within the LMDB. This will confirm whether all the information is correctly defined.
    Please note - SLD -> LMDB -> SMSY.
    So, if the first 2 don't have the correct information, you wont have much joy with smsy.

  • SABRIX/JBOSS monitoring with Solution Manager and Wily Introscope

    Reading SCN discussions it is not quite clear to me if an extra (Wily) license is needed for monitoring SABRIX/JBOSS with Solution Manager and Wily Introscope. Does someone have experience in this area what exact to do?

  • SUP Monitoring with Solution Manager 7.1

    We are currently on Solution Manager 7.1 SP6.
    We currently have Sybase Unwired Platform system setup under managed system and
    technical monitoring in Solution Manager. We have followed steps in note 1762741 but we are
    receiving only high level alerts - sytem availability. No other alerts
    are coming from any other SUP logs. Even though errors are in DB ,
    server logs in SUP - we don't see any alerts.
    All the Metrics are enabled. No errors in template.
    Here's the example from SUP log files

    Hi Jyoti,
    Are all your extractor working like they should?
    Have you considered setting up log file monitoring by creating custom metrics and alerts?
    Maybe this could help you bypass the issue.

  • Where do I set the polling frequency for Technical monitoring in Solution Manager 7.1 SP10 ??

    Hi All,
    I am customizing my technical monitoring templates and would like to know :
    1. Where we can set the polling frequency for each metrics for triggering alerts through Technical monitoring in Solution Manager 7.1 SP10 ??
    2. Is it like each time our threshold is breached, it will send an alert irrespective of polling frequency ??
    I know the data collection interval time for each metrics in technical monitoring template but the as per my observation the polling frequency is different.
    Need your guidance.
    Regards,
    Manish K

    Hi Javier,
    Refer to the documentation 'MAI Alert Consumer BAdI Interface' under
    http://wiki.scn.sap.com/wiki/display/TechOps/Alert+Consumer+BAdI+Interface link for information on the input to the BAdI.

  • Best Practices for sharing media with iMovie and FCPX

    So I've a large iMovie Events directory, and would like to use that media with both iMovie and FCPX projects.
    I'd rather not duplicate the media, so would prefer to import as references into FCPX.
    The dilemma is that I see that it's possible to modify or move media from within the iMovie application, and therefore break the reference to that media with FCPX.
    I only see two options:  (1) Never Ever modify the location/name of media in the iMovie Events file (even from within the iMovie app) since I would break an FCPX link if that media is referenced, or (2) always import (copy) the iMovie events into the FCPX Event Library making an independent original so that I can confidently operate on those media files in either application.
    I'd surely rather not have to do (2 )(e.g. doubling my storage demands) to gain the flexibility of using either application to edit the video, but really don't want to live with the restrictions of (1).
    Thoughts / Solutions?  What might you consider as options or best practices?

    Unless there is some other reason, users should own the right to share their mailboxes - it shouldn't be something that demands administrator management (if only so that the administrators aren't swamped by user requests for sharing their mailboxes). 
    For true shared mailboxes, when the mailbox is created, full access is granted by an administrator.

  • Best practices for EasyDMS Public Folder usage/management

    Hi,
        We are implementing EDMS and are looking for best practices on the use of the Public Folder in EDMS.  We have different sites that have different business models, such as Engineer to Order or a "Projects" based business.  While other sites have a large Flow operation of standard catalog products with ordering options.   Initial thoughts are to put only documents in the public folders that are common to all users at a site, such as document templates or procedures.  Others suggest putting project folders there where anybody can browse through the different documents for a project.   And that raises the question about who is the owner or manager of that public folder.  We don't want the masses to be able to create random folders so that soon the structure of the Public Folder is a big unorganized mess.  Any thoughts on best practices you have implemented or seen in practice are appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Joseph Whiteley

    Hi!
    My suggestion is to skip the folders all together! It will end as a total mess after a couple of years. My recommendation is to use the classification of the document type and classify the document with the right information. You can then search for the documents and you don't need to look through tons of folders to find the right document.
    I know that you have to put the document in a folder to be able to create it in EasyDMS but at my customers we have a year folder and then month folders underneath where they just dump the documents. We then work with either object links or classification to find the right documents in the business processes. Another recommendation is to implement the TREX engine to be able to find your documents. I donu2019t know if this was the answer you wanted to get but I think this is the way forward if you would like to have a DMS system that could be used to 10+ years. Imagine replacing Google with a file browser!
