Diagnostics: Agent disappearing from system landscape

Hello,
I want to monitor my Enterprise Portal (EP7) and use Root Cause Analysis for it.
I installed the SMD Agent on EP7, diagnostics is running on SolMan (SM7).
Now the strange part:
Whenever I start the Agent on EP7, I can see it for a short time in diagnostics (e.g. in the landscape management or in the managed system setup wizard).
But shortly after (between 30 - 60 sec.), the agent disappears from diagnostics. Although it is running all the time, it does not show up anymore.
Diagnostics says, the agent is not connected resp. does not found an agent. But it's up and running (and was visible just seconds before) on EP7.
Anybody any idea, why this behaviour occurs?
Thanks and Regards,
Jan

Hi,
We have used same SIDs (the default DAA) for a few hosts in our landscape and this did not cause a problem.
But in my opinion best to use DAA, DAB, DAC etc in order to remove any room for confusion for both the humans and the systems

Diagnostics agent in managed systems

Hi Gurus,
We are trying to set up RCA in solution manager.
For this, we need to install diagnostics agents in managed systems.
But, i think those agents are already installed in out systems and am not sure of it. Can anyone please let me know how can i find if diagnostic agent is installed in managed system.
Please do clarify one more thing, we need Solution manager diagnostics in solman system and solution manager diagnostics agents in managed systems. Am i correct??
Please help me out on this.
Regards,
Ram.

Hi
I have gone through all the documents that specified earlier itself.
Our OS is IBM iSeries, so we have multiple SAP systems installed in a single LPAR.
So all the diagnostics agents for all those systems installed in that LPAR should exist in that LPAR itself.
In that way, we have DAA folder in usr/sap of that LPAR. In that DAA folder, we have mutliple folder called ADMA97, ADMA98 etc. So these ADMnn folders represent agents for each system right?. So, how to idenfify that particular agent is for which system? All i could make out is from SYS/profile folder in that DAA folder. I have checked the profiles and identified the host name related to a paricular SAP system.
As per SAP document, these diagnostic agents are automatically installed with system installation as of SAP Web AS 7.0 SR3. All our systems are above that level and i still see some diagnostic agents are not installes for some SAP systems. Is there any possibility like this? SO if i again install the missing diagnostic agents, will they be created under the same /usr/sap/DAA folder or will it create a new folder??
Hope am clear...
Awaiting your inputs and thanksin advance.

Unable to read software component version from System Landscape Directory "

I've worked in past creating/importing SWCV, but this is new system PI7.0 and stuck.
A) Is my understanding on resolution correct?
Should I go and apply notes 940309 and create client copy of existing client 001
                                    OR
change role of client 001; SXMB_ADMIN -> 'Integration Engine Configuration' to 'Integration Server'
I have no problem in using client 001 as Integration server, all I want is import of SWCV to work. Thanks. Appreciate the help.
B) Here is what I have done and the error:
1) Followed weblog below and created product, software component, technical system, business sytem in SLD.
/people/srinivas.vanamala2/blog/2007/02/05/step-by-step-guide-xml-file-2-xml-file-scenario-part-i
2) When I import the SWC from integration repository getting error
(Unable to read software component version from System Landscape Directory "server:5<system number>00").
C) Pointers used from the forum to debug the issue, but still no luck
Below are the points checked from the forum and all steps are correct, but still have issues with the import
1) check the RFCs SAPSLDAPI, LCRSAPRFC, connection test pass as the program ID registered with Jco
2) T-code SLDCHECK no errors (followed http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/de/78/20244134a56532e10000000a1550b0/content.htm)
3) T-code SLDAPICUST got user PIAPPLUSER, pwd is correct (reset the pwd)
4) logged using PIAPPLUSER http://server:port/sld and it works
5) One of the weblog SLD Check Failed (LCR_LIST_BUSINESS_SYSTEMS function doesn't work) referred to apply notes 940309
Notes: 940309
You are installing 'SAP NetWeaver 2004s SR1 ABAP+Java' Usage Type 'NetWeaver Process Integration (PI)'.
You don't want to use the default client 001, but another client as Integration Server.

applied portion (PIPostInstallProcess) of OSS notes 940309 and it resolved.
Note:
I still retained client 001 and didn't do client copy as mentioned in the notes. The wizard based CTC tool helped. Here are the details if someone has similar issue and want to know further details:
A NetWeaver Process Integration (PI) Installation (ABAP+Java) has two parts: Installation and configuration. The former is done by the Installer, the latter by the 'Central Template Configuration' (CTC) Tool.
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/14/39084136b5f423e10000000a155106/frameset.htm
1.      Call the wizard-based configuration tool as described in Configuration Wizard.
       2.      Select the scenario PI and the task PIPostInstallProcess.
       3.      Choose Execute.
A list of the steps to be executed by the wizard is displayed.
       4.      Choose Install.

Local Software Component version -New - Import From SLD

What does Adapter engine pick from system landscape directory? Kindly help!

Hi experts,
What does Adapter engine pickup from system landscape directory? In other words, what data adapter engine need from SLD?
Kindly give examples.
Thanks
Gopal

Hi,
To add, Integration server picks the URL of the various Adapter Engines form SLD and caches it in AE Cache(You can view the Cached URL in SXI_Cache).
In SLD u can go to Content Maintanence and check the Adapter FrameWork Instance and get the URL for the AE's for Secure and non-secure communication.

Agent disappearing from Supervisor Desktop

Greetings -
Can someone help find a solution to my below problem..
Environment:
Cisco Unified CCX premium
9.0.2 SU2 version
Agent desktop: 9.0(2) (Premium); Build: 9.0.2.2021
Problem:
We have three agents out ten who regularly disappear from supervisor desktop. I opened a TAC case with Cisco but could not figure out what is causing the problem. The agent desktop is installed on Win7 64bit, Kaspersky antivirus and no firewall between UCCX and agent. Between UCCX and agent, we have a Cisco 4500 connecting 6500. I also opened a case with Cisco switching team to check if switches have any role in agent disappearing, but nothing was found on the switches. It is interesting that only three users are affected out of all. The affected users' logs on to CAD without any issues in the beginning of the shift, however, after couple of hours i.e. around 11 am agents start to disappear from the supervisor desktop. After the agent disappears, the CAD chat windows appears like below and the <Unavailable> status in the chat windows changes constantly every 10 seconds to <Initializing>
The UCCX capture shows the following:
<AGENT_DESKTOP_user11>. The application will be logged out.
2014-08-20 03:09:46:249 WARN FCCS3008 Network communication error <COMM_FAILURE> sending message to application <AGENT_DESKTOP_mwoods>. The application will be logged out.
2014-08-20 03:09:50:021 WARN FCCS3008 Network communication error <COMM_FAILURE> sending message to application
The agent logs shows that the heart beat is sent to the UCCX but UCCX dose not receive anything. While all these are happening, the user can still receive and answer calls, the supervisor though cannot see the user, the reports she runs displays user metrics. However, after few hours, the agent will appears again on supervisor desktop or re logging will make the user appear again.
Has anyone experienced this strange issue?
Thank you in advance.

Thank you for prompt response.
What I did few weeks ago was, created a new account, assigned queues to that new account and then asked the used to use that account just to check if the issue is specific to user account. Even then, the agent (newly created account) was disappearing.
I am sure if I ask the user to use the working agent account, will not have a problem. I will have to check with the supervisor if they want to try this out. I will update you momentarily.

Username 'disappeared' from System Preferences List

System is a MAC Mini with 8GB of memory and 250GB SSD with a 4TB Pegasus R4 subsystem. It is running Mavericks 10.9.4 and Server 3.1.2. A month or so ago one of its non-admin users disappeared from the System Preferences User list and from the server app's Users list. The user is unable to connect to the server. When I tried to recreate the user I was told that the shortname is already in use. Changing the name of the folder in /Users doesn't change anything.
I need to either regain access to the username or delete the username so I can create it again.
Can anyone help me?

The following command will output a list of local users. Is the one in question included?
dscl . -list /Users

Agent disappears from Supervisor Display

UCCX 8.5
I have some remote CAD agents who connect via vpn. One in particular always behaves the same. In the Supervisor Display she is counted as "Logged In" but her name will disappear from the Agents and Voice CSQ-Detail displays for 30 seconds. She will then reappear for 30 seconds and this repeats as long as she is logged in. She is able to answer calls, some for over twenty minutes.

It could be the VPN is blocking TCP ports 59000 and 59020 required for the chat communications. I had this happen when a firewall between 2 networks was blocking ports 59000 and 59020.

Assign an Diagnostics Agent to two System Types

On my system I have installed SAP using a C-name but the database which is on the same server uses the physical server name. The server has the diagnostics agent installed but when I go to managed system configuration I am only able to assign that agent to one of the system types. Is there a way I can assign the agent to both the ABAP and the database systems?

Hi Mary,
Install a new diagnostic agent on your physical host.

Bluetooth disappeared from system preferences and menu bar...

My bluetooth preferences disappearead from system preferences as well as the menu bar. I discovered this because my bluetooth mighty mouse stopped working. I tried replacing the batteries but nothing happened. I used my trackpad to click on the bluetooth icon on my menu bar and told it to connect to my mouse, which was there in the list. I got the swirling ball and so restarted my computer, when it came back, bluetooth was gone from the menu bar and system preferences, so now I don't know how to reconnect my mouse.
I tried resetting the PRAM and NVRAM as recommended by another post, I tried it twice as the instructions outline, but I haven't had any success.
I have tried doing spotlight for bluetooth in system preferences, this takes me to keyboard and mouse, then I get this message:
"The Bluetooth tab of Keyboard & Mouse preferences is hidden because you don't have a Bluetooth module installed or attached to your computer."
When I do a spotlight on the entire system, I get a result for bluetooth in system preferences, when I click on that, I get this message:
"You cannot open “Bluetooth” preferences pane because it is not available to you at this time. You might need to connect a device to your computer to see this preferences pane."
But, the irony is, that I can't connect a bluetooth device without this option in preferences. Also, in utilities, I remember that there used to be a bluetooth setup assistant, and that is not longer there.
I realize other threads have come up on this, but I haven't found anything besides deleting the plist, restarting, and resetting the PRAM and NVRAM (whatever that is). I've tried this but haven't been successful so I'm looking for more ideas.

HI Daniel,
Try deleting this file.
com.apple.preferencepanes.cache
~/Library/Caches.
Move that file to the Trash and restart your Mac.
If that doesn't help, download and install the 10.5.8 combo update available here.
http://support.apple.com/downloads/MacOS_X_10_5_8_ComboUpdate
It's ok to do this even though you are already running 10.5.8.
Make sure and repair disk permissions after the installation.
Quit any open applications/programs. Launch Disk Utility. (Applications/Utilities) Select MacintoshHD in the panel on the left, select the FirstAid tab. Click: Repair Disk Permissions. When it's finished from the Menu Bar, Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac. If you see a long list of "messages" in the permissions window, it's ok. That can be ignored. As long as you see, "Permissions Repair Complete" when it's finished... you're done. Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac.

Apps "Disappearing" From System?

Hey there.
On My MacBook Pro Running 10.5.6 i seem to be missing apps.
I started noticing about 3 weeks ago when my school copy of Illustrator just disappeared.
Today i had to restart. Be fore i did i was using Flash Player, and after it restart its not on my System.
What's going on? Im totally clueless, and its getting really annoying.
Thanks for your help

You apparently are trying to run the application from the DVD rather than installing it into your Applications folder. That is why it disappears after you quit using it.
You need to install the applications into your Applications folder following the installation instructions that came with the product. From what you have described that is not what you are doing. And you are not providing the exact steps you are going through to install Illustrator.

Wifi option disappeared from system preferences network tab

I used wifi at home in the morning, with no problem. I used ethernet during the day at work. When I got home, wifi wasn't working. At first, it was still an option in the Network tab of System Preferences (along with Ethernet, Firewire & Bluetooth PAN). When I clicked on 'Assist Me,' and started the process, I wasn't able to give the information needed. When I clicked 'Go Back' until I got to the main Network screen, the 'WiFi' option was no longer present. It is also not an option with I click on the "+" button to add a network option. In addition, on the top bar, the WiFi icon is greyed out, with an 'X' in it. Clicking on it shows: "WiFi: No Hardware Installed."
To add to the fun, when I called Apple Support, he had some resets in mind to try, but my computer will not stay off. Clicking 'Shut Down,' turns it off, but then right back on. Holding the power button turns it off, but he had me unplug the power for a minute, then plug it back in. When I do plug back in, it restarts again, on its own.
Any help would be greatly appreciated... Thanks!

In many cases, this issue is caused by a hardware fault. A short circuit or a microscopic break in a solder joint may open and close depending on temperature, making the failure intermittent.
Test after taking each of the following steps that you haven't already taken. Back up all data before making any changes.
1. If you can connect to the Internet via Ethernet, Bluetooth, or a USB network device, make sure all available OS X updates are installed. If Wi-Fi is your only means of network access, skip this step.
2. Reset the NVRAM.
3. Reset the System Management Controller.
4. Start up in Recovery mode. In the menu bar of the OS X Utilities screen, there's a Wi-Fi menu. If it works, selectInstall OS X. If your Mac was upgraded from an older version of OS X, you’ll need the Apple ID and password you used to upgrade, so make a note of those before you begin.
5. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store, or go to another authorized service provider.

X220 Bluetooth periodically disappears from system

I use a Bluetooth mouse on my X220 (4286-CTO) with Windows 8 Pro. For the past few months, the mouse sometimes stops working, and when I check the system tray the Bluetooth icon is gone and the Device Manager no longer shows a Bluetooth adapter. This popup may also appear in the system tray:
Bluetooth usually comes back if I reboot, but sometimes I have to reboot more than once. The Event Viewer has some error entries for BTHUSB that say "The Bluetooth driver expected an HCI event with a certain size but did not receive it."
I have the latest Bluetooth drivers from Lenovo. Is there anything I can do besides replace the Bluetooth daughterboard?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Thanks for the suggestion. It does have a power management option:
I've been running with the option unchecked for the past week, but it's too early to come to a conclusion because the problem is intermittent. I did have one failure during the week so the problem is not completely gone. However, only one incident for the week is better than what I've been experiencing and it seems to be better.
