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 :
<b>EarlyWatch Alert - R/3 System</b>**********
<b>Download Problem</b>
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

Early watch alert - problem with generating word document

Hello experts,
since last week I am not able to generate word documents of early watch reports. I have access to 4 different solution manager installations (of customers) where the generation was working without problems but stops since last week.
SAP gui starts word and the standard word sheet is loaded (SAP early watch start page) but without putting data into the sheet. At the same time I get an error message in the sap gui saying:
Error during download; read details in long text
Long text:
Message no. DSVAS824
Diagnosis
The application was unable to write a file to a local directory.
Procedure
Often the maximum length of 128 characters for the entire file name, which is defined internally, is exceeded. To avoid this problem, you can change the setting.
To do this, open Microsoft® Word.
For English interfaces, choose Tools->Options->File Locations->User templates.
For German interfaces, choose Extras->Optionen->Speicherort für Dateien->Benutzervorlagen.
Recommendation: Use directory names with a maximum of 60 characters (For example C:Program FilesMicrosoft OfficeTemplates)
I have already maintained the path in word options (we use Word 2007). My colleagues have the same problems.
Any ideas or hints? Thank you in advance.
BR, Basti

Hi all,
SAP is aware of this problem and is working on a fix.
For a ***temporary workaround**
run se38
RAGS_DSWP_SERV_CONTENT_RESET
(De-Activate content until 26.05.2011 07:28:06
Execute
This will allow you to open the report on a temporary basis.

Please check, whether the managed system is well prepared.
It requires add-ons ST-PI and ST-A/PI, data in workload statistics ST03N.
Run RTCCTOOL via SE38 and check the results.

Early watch alert problem

Dear All,
EWA for our target system is not generating regularly.
i m getting below error,any one plz advice how to correct the issue .
Error:
No authorization to log on as a trusted system (Trusted RC=2).
Function group SCCA cannot be called in RFC system SM_SIDCLNT010_TRUSTED
Thanks,
Thiru

Hi Thiru,
Hope you have solved the problem, if you haven't here are the tips:
You need Trusted connection only to schedule the SDCCN in case of any issues.
The issue should be with the Back connection from satellite system or the Master system(solman) is not maintained correctly and the RFCs are not maintained properly.
Thanks,
Jagan

Document for configuring Early watch alerts And issue tracking system

Hello Experts,
Iam on SAP Solution Manager 4.0 and need step wise step procedure document for configuring Early watch alerts and Issue tracking system in solman 4.0 . I hv checked Help site and other standard config docs by SAP but getting confused and things are not working ,so help shall be appreciated.
My Email id is [email protected] .
Requested to revert at earliest as iam in urgent need of it .Points guaranteed.
Thanks and Regards,
Somya

Hi Somya,
setting up EWA is explained in Application help of SAP Solution Manager.
It would be helpful to know, what you have already done and what is causing problems for you.
Prerequisite to process EWA is to configure all steps described in the Basic Settings of SAP Solution Manager Configuration guide (tx SPRO).
The configuration of Issue Tracking is also described in the IMG (Basically, it's required to activate a BC Set).
Path in IMG: Basic Settings -> Standard Configuration of Basic Settings -> Solution Manager -> Basic BC-Sets for Configuration -> Activate Issue Tracking BC Set
Access the configuration guide:
- run transaction SPRO
- choose SAP Reference IMG
- expand tree SAP Solution Manager -> Configuration -> Basic Settings
- follow the steps under
"Wizard-based Initial Configuration of Basic Settings", if your SolMan system has not been yet configured or
"Standard Configuration of Basic Settings", if you have done already some configuration.
Best regards,
Ruediger Stoecker

Early Watch Alert - Red Flag

Hi Gurus,
I configured EWA for a satellite system in solman but it did not generate the report and instead it had a red flag in the EWA Reports column. Clicking the Red flag it gave the following message:
Go to the Service Data Control Center (transaction SDCCN) in the satellite system and check why the data has not been sent.
Typical sources of errors are:
-The RFC connection for the SAP Solution Manager system is not working.
-The 'Task Processor' background job, which collects the session data, has been changed.
-Problems arose while data was being collected (see the detail log for the task that collects the session data).
-A periodic 'SDCC Maintenance Package' task has not been scheduled to check whether your SAP Solution Manager system requests session data.
Session number:
Could any one tell me how to overcome this issue If any of you have come across the same problem.

Praveen
PS: Useful answers will be rewarded.

Hi,
I found that some authorizations were missing.. now i have configured to generate ewa today. and in SAP Solution Manager: Active Solutions it shows the system and when I go in instead of the red flag it shows a sand clock and when i click on the early watch alert it says:
Wait for session data
The session is waiting for data from a remote system. Data transfer can take up to one day.
You can also send the data manually.
In the satellite system, start the Service Data Control Center (transaction SDCCN).
Choose Task -> Create. The system displays a task overview.
Double-click Refresh Sessions. A dialog box appears. You can define the attributes of the task.
To start processing the task immediately, select Now in the Scheduling area.
In the Target RFC Destination field, select the RFC connection that points to your SAP Solution Manager system.
Choose Run Task Once.
Confirm your entries. The task appears in the To do view and is marked for processing. When the Session Refresh task has been processed, a new task with the appropriate session type and session number appears in the To do view. This task collects and sends the data for your session. If a new task does not appear, search in the task-specific log for errors that ocurred during the Session Refresh task and make any necessary corrections.
To start the task immediately, select it and right-click to call up the context menu.
Choose Start Now. When the task has been processed successfully, it appears in the Done view. The data has been sent to your SAP Solution Manager system. You can check this in the task-specific log.

Early Watch Alert Configuration

Hi,
Can anyone tell me how to configure Early Watch Alert in Solution Manager 4.0.
When i try to create a periodic request session data, It is created for early watch alert and not for EarlyWatch Alert for Solution Manager.
And when i try to call from solution manager4 solution_manager->solution->Early Watch Alert then i get the following error.
The data for this session is overdue. Data has not yet been transferred from the associated satellite system.
Go to the Service Data Control Center (transaction SDCCN) in the satellite system and check why the data has not been sent.
Typical sources of errors are:
The RFC connection for the SAP Solution Manager system is not working.
The 'Task Processor' background job, which collects the session data, has been changed.
Problems arose while data was being collected (see the detail log for the task that collects the session data).
A periodic 'SDCC Maintenance Package' task has not been scheduled to check whether your SAP Solution Manager system requests session data.
Please help me.

First of all, i'm no expert on this, but...
1] Go to tcode: SDCCN
2] You see 2 tasks to do. Maintenance Package and Service preparation check.
3] Select Maintenance Package, in the menu Edit -> start now
4] A new task is created with a session number
5] Select the new task, in the menu Edit -> start now (this will take a few minutes).
6] Now go to dswp, select your solution and see EarlyWatch Alert reports.
7] You probably have to click on create report or something like that.
I think this problem will solve itself, because it's a job which hasn't been started yet.
Because the job hasn't started, the session does not yet exist, which will result in an error overdue.

Early watch alert task not created in SDCCN in satellite system

Hello Everyone,
I am trying to configure EWA in solution manger 7.0 ehp1. I have added the system in SMSY, created RFC SM_SIDCLNTXXX_READ and SM_SIDCLNTXXX_TRUSTED in solution manger and also created RFC SM_SIDCLNTXXX_TRUSTED and SM_SIDCLNTXXX_BACK in satellite system sucessfully.
The Early watch Alert in TA DSWP is showing me a red flag. The job /BDL/TASK_PROCESSOR in satellite system is being sucessfully finished.
The problem I am facing is I cannot find task Early watch Alert in SDCCN in my satellite system and can not create other RFC such as SAPOSS and SDCC_OSS
Could anyone please suggest how should i go about it?
Component version of my satellite system is
ST-A/PI - 01M_SCM570
ST-PI - 2005_1_700 00003

Hello Sohrab
1) The SDCCN task logs will be on the Done tab - You can also check the logs in SLG1 at the time, there could be more information there.
Typically the refresh definitions will have nothing, except when there are updates, so it is not unusual to see no updates here each time the task runs. If there are service sessions the maintains package should pick them up with refresh service task.
Is the SM_<SID>CLNT<nnn>_BACK RFC set as the master in SDCCN?
One test you can make is create a Refresh session task on the satellite. This is the task that the Maint. Package should run.
It will just be easier for testing. If the refresh session task does not create any EWA tasks for the service sessions outstanding, then there is a configuration issue.
If it works, then the Maintenance task is failing before it can shcedule the refresh session task.
I realize I haven't offered a solution, but a way of finding out where it is failing. Once we isolate where it is failing, we reduce the possibilities of what it could be, and we should be left with the solution.
So forget the Maintenace Package for Now. Lets see if you can pull the service sessions with a Refresh Session Task.
You know in the SDCCN task logs errors in the logs are prefaced by what looks like a yellow lightening bolt.
So if you see these in any of the logs, you are encountering an error, and you should copy it here.
Hope this helps to move you forward.
Regards,
Paul

Early Watch alert creation

HI,
I need to create the early watch alert service for 2 systems of development and quality : VSD and VSQ. It is possible or EWA is allowed only for production systems?
In the target systems SDCCN transaction in configured , but in SSM we are not able to put the two systems in the active group of the solution "viesgo", so to be able to generate the early watch like VSP.
Can you help me ?

Roberto Francia wrote:>
> Now I putted the two systems in the solution , so I see in the early watch list of the solution the two system with the red flags (regular).
> > When I try to run the maintenance package job from the sdccn of the systems , it runs but it doesn't create the two classic jobs of the early watch (early watch alert for ssm). The package run but withous result ?
Fine, you have completed the first step.
Go to the Satellite Systems and check the following:
RFC Destination (default name: SM_<SID>CLNT<client>_BACK ) to SAP Solution Manager exists and is functional.
Transaction SDCCN (Service Data Control Center) must have been activated. Maintenance Package runs daily. (
RFC Destination (default name: SM_<SID>CLNT<client>_BACK ) is assigned in SDCCN: Goto -> Settings -> Task-Specific -> Session Data Collection -> RFC Destinations -> Settings.
Afterwards schedule the "Maintenance Package" once and start it manually.

Ruediger
