Monitoring Business Process

Hi,
First of all, sorry for my English but I will try to make my best!
I'm new to JCAPS.
I'm doing a simple BPEL flow in eEnsight. I want monitoring it.
I have setted the persistence but into Emanager page i don't see the windows: Business Process Instance Monitor tab.
Any idea?
Thanks for yours help.
Diana

Hi Diana
- First, connect enterprise manager to your integration server
- Second, navigate in left menu in server hierarchy to your BP
(for example: Java CAPS - J2EE - Servers - localhost:1800 - [project] - [deployment] - [cmap] - [pageflow/bp/jcd])
- Then, click on this bp or pf or jcd. This is your "Business Process Instance Monitor".
IF you see nothing at this time on the right, you have to install plugin
Do it this way:
- Configuration (that "services" icon above hierarchy)
- Web Application Manager
- Auto install from repository
- url = http://localhost:12000, Administrator/STC (default)
- Connect
- Select All or at least "eInsight Enterprise Manager Plug-In"
- Install
hope it helps
If you see no instances in your Business process instance monitor, you didnt enable persistency in enviroment - intergrationserver properites -einsight engine configuration and bp/pf/jcd properties

Monitoring Tool for Monitoring Business Process

Hi All,
Is there any monitoring tool which is able to monitor various technologies .
we are integrating biztalk with SAP and we are looking for a tool which we can use to monitor both, is there any?

Hi All,

Praj Dixit
If if want just to monitor various technologies, lets say BizTalk, then there are lot of tools available for this. BizTalk 360 and SCOM are two main tools.
similarly if you want to monitor SAP- like availbility of SAP services/URLS/Databases etc, then HP OpenView can be one option.
However, if you just want to make sure your business process ( integrated BizTalk/SAP..etc) are up and running then you could write some Automated Smoke test scripts, which will perform some basic testing and make sure all components are up and running.
Hope this helps.

Time effort to implement Business Process Monitoring

hi,

1). what are the Prerequisite
2). if the Prerequisite are met and we come to BPMon part how long it would take to implement one Scenario.
3). any document or links or hints for BPMon Best Practice?
Regards

Hi Volker,
This comment was part of document - Business Process Monitoring Set-up and User Guideline for Release ST 4.0 and ST-SER 700_2007_1.
3 Prerequisites for Business Process Monitoring
Business Process Monitoring is not just activated by pressing a button in the SAP Solution Manager and
therefore the configuration of Business Process Monitoring is currently not intended as a customer selfservice.
Instead, the procedure to set up Business Process Monitoring in the SAP Solution Manager is rather
realized by the delivery of the SAP Solution Management Optimization (SMO) Service for Business
Process Management due to the complex nature of the overall configuration of Business Process Monitoring.
However, it is possible (but not recommended) for customers to configure Business Process Monitoring by
themselves without any guidance of SAP.
Thanks.

Setup Business Process monitoring does nothing

Hi BPM Experts,
i am new to BPM and trying to launch the setup of Business processing from Solman_workcenter. I have provided all appropriate roles and have configured the system in SMSY. I have completed the Creation of the solution and documented the business process via transaction dswp. now when i click on "Setup Business Process Monitoring" it asks me to select the active solution, i select the solution i had created and then i expect it to launch another session but it does nothing" did i miss something.
regards
Yogi

Hi Yogi,
After choosing a Solution you have created it should display a new SAP window showing "Change "Setup BPM - "". If you are not getting it you can do it in 2 ways.
1) Go to transaction DSWP select the solution that you have created, towards left choose "Operations Setup-> Solution Monitoring-> Business Process Monitoring-> Setup Business Process Monitoring" and then you can setup your BPM.
2) If you want to do it via Solman_workcenter transaction then 1st open dswp select the solution towards left choose "Operations Setup-> Solution Monitoring-> Business Process Monitoring-> Setup Business Process Monitoring" and come out of that screen without setting up the BPM then open solman_workcenter transaction select "setup BPM" and then choose the solution that you have created and click on Ok. It will take you to the same screen as in Step 1.
Hope this helps.
Thanks & Best Regards,
Raghavendra.

Business Process Monitoring with SAPCCMSR Agents

Hi
I have installed a SAPCCMSR Agent in a non-sap system to monitor log files.
This is the configuration about a particularly log file:
LOGFILE_TEMPLATE
DIRECTORY="E:\LOG"
FILENAME="senddata*.txt"
PATTERN_0="error"
VALUE_0=RED
MONITOR_NEWEST_FILES=1
In this folder every day, log are created (with name senddata-DD-MM-YYYY) and I would like to monitor only the last log produced to search for error.
When the agent run, it creates a monitor in rz20 with the name of the current log(for example senddata-08-09-2014).
Tomorrow when a new log will created, the monitor will change its name (for example in senddata-09-09-2014).
I also want use business process monitoring to create a monitor and assign the mte in rz20.
When I choose from a list which monitor assign, it give me the name of the ccms monitor that have the name valid for today(senddata-08-09-2014).
The problem is that tomorrow this MTE will change its name and will invalidate my monitor in bpm.
I tried to insert manually the value in bpm monitor like ...../senddata*/.... to see if dinamically, it will acquire the monitor with the name in rz20.
But this doesn't work.
Anyone have an idea on how monitor this?
Thanks very much & Best regards
Marco

Hi Mark,
When the agent run, it creates a monitor in rz20 with the name of the current log(for example senddata-08-09-2014).
"senddata-08-09-2014 " - Is this the name of your log file created on OS level everyday ?
If yes, then why not after every log switch after end of day, a file with name sendata replaces its old content with the contents of current logs ?
This "replacing" is scheduled to run every 5 mins from OS level(cron script) and it picks the name of the file using current date method ?
In this was you will have your monitor with same name.

Using ARIS process models as the foundation for Business Process Monitoring

Hello,
Do anyone know if you can use IDS Scheer ARIS process models and the integration between IDS Scheer ARIS and SAP Solution Manager as the starting point for end-to-end Business Process Monitoring (BPM) so that you get the process description/model automatically in Solution Manager BPM and just need to configure the monitoring (more or less that you monitor against the modelled process in ARIS)?
Is there an API for SAP Solution Manager BPM so that non-SAP solutions/systems can be part of the end-to-end process monitoring?
If not, how do you usually integrate non-SAP solutions that are part of an end-to-end process that you want to monitor into SAP Solution Manager BPM, or do you not use Solution Manager BPM for this?
What is the roadmap for SAP around SAP Solution Manager BPM when it comes to non-SAP systems/applications/solutions and the new SAP NetWeaver BPM functionality?
Regards,
Markus Johansson

Hello Markus,
I just paste my answer form the other forum entry Re: Business process management strategy in SAP?
in a nutshell BPM Netweaver is focussing on so called edge-processes (usually
SOA-based and often workflow related). These edge-processes a thought to enhance exisitng core business processes and should provide the fast competitive edge versus competitors. Examples would be also xApps. For this Netweaver provides process modelling tools, where you can get exectuable code through the integration between CE and PI. The monitoring part for these processes is mainly targeting business end-users and business manager.
Business Process Monitoring with Solution Manager focusses on core business processes which are realized with the "conventional", "old" SAP Architecture, e.g. Order-to-Cash or Procure-to-Pay. You get a combination of technical monitors (average response times of transactions, background job runtimes, monitors for IDOC or qRFC processing) and application related monitors (you get more than 200 pre-configured application monitors out-of-the-box like number of overdue customer orders or outbound deliveries or number of deliveries with goods issue posted but no invoice). The target group here is the support organization of the customer, from Basis-Support over application support on IT side to process owner on business department side.
Overview presentations can be found under
https://service.sap.com/bpm --> Media Library --> Customer Information -->
"Business Process Monitoring - Part 1 & 2".
Or look under https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/nw-processmonitoring
In the end BPM Netweaver and BPMon SolMan are complementary for different purposes and different target groups.

Queries on Business Process Monitoring (BPM) & Interface Monitoring

Dear all,
I have got a few queries on the subject and would greatly appreciate any valuable inputs.
Before I proceed, want to clarify that I have downloaded all overtly available documents (PDFs, SIMs) from the following URLs:
http://service.sap.com/rkt-solman
http://service.sap.com/solutionmanager Media Library
http://service.sap.com/bpm Media Library
I may not have read them all though since I come from a Functional angle.
Kindly reply to whatever query you can please. Not all of them are sequential.
Queries:
(1) How are Interfaces with External Systems (beyond the firewall of the enterprise) monitored ?
(2) Is it really worth listing all such External Systems as Logical Components in their own right ? I guess this makes sense if at a Process Step level, one wants to list a 'specific' Logical Component involved instead of 'generic' term like External System. However, it would benefit only if Interface Monitoring is feasible; isn't it ?
(3) There are Interfaces which are built between SAP and External System and serve various Business Processes under various Business Scenarios. In such circumstances, it is not easy to list which Process 'owns' the Interface. Therefore, under a normal Implementation Project structure (SOLAR02), choosing a particular Process Step, getting into 'Development' Tab and listing the Interface Program name may not be feasible, since there is no particular place where it belongs.
Is it therefore a good idea to create namesake Scenario for capturing all interfaces and list a library of all interfaces and store documents right there ? If so, will these namesake processes be of any use in BPM at a later date ?
(4) If my primary objective is to accomplish Interface Monitoring and not Business Process Monitoring per se, is it a good idea to create a new Solution Landscape, and manually create Business Processes that are suited to list Interfaces than to assign Template or Implementation Project to the Solution Landscape, and inherit those Processes ?
(5) What is it that a SAP Competence (Support) Centre will find as a 'major' gain in activating BPM to monitor Interfaces alone - is there something that SolMan's BPM based Interface Monitoring gives more than what PI level reporting may provide them with ?
(6) In Interfaces with Non-SAP Systems (some of them are old/ proprietary legacy systems with Credit Card companies; some of them are like 'Active Directory' servers), is it possible to define Metrics for BPM that such systems will contribute to SolMan, for reporting purposes ? Or, is it too much to hope for
Thanks again, for your patience and advance thanks for your kind responses.

Hi,
Welcome to BPM
You have asked too many questions in a single Post, Please read rules of engagement before posting
You can monitor the following without any trouble.
● ALE/EDI
● qRFC
1) Its obvious, if your firewall blocks all your request to external enterprise, it is not possible to monitor.
3) These interfaces are not the one related to development tab in SOLAR02, you have to map them from BPM.
4) Yes, you don't have to depend on any project for your processes, you can add it in your Solution Landscape.
5) Post a Separate Thread!!!
6) Post a Separate Thread!!!
Hope this gives a better idea.

Business Process Monitoring: restrict authorization to confirm alerts

Hello Experts,
I am working with Solution Manager's Business Process Monitoring and I am now facing these questions regarding roles and authorizations to allow/forbid alert confirmation:
- What is the authorization mechanism behind alert confirmation in BPM? Is a specific authorization object involved when pressing the button "Confirm selected"?
- Is it possible to adjust roles (if no standard role is available) in order to have, for example,
--Role1: give users the authorizations to walk through DSWP transaction, see business processes' alerts and confirm them
--Role2: give users the authorizations to walk through DSWP transaction, see business processes' alerts but NOT allow them to confirm any alert?
Our Solution Manager version:
SAP EHP 1 for SAP Solution Manager 7.0 (SP22)
ST-PI 2008_1_700 level2
ST-SER 701_2008_2 level 6
ST-A/PI 01M_CRM570
I hope I managed to explain my doubts properly; any help will be very appreciated.
Thanks in advance for your support,
best regards
Paolo

Hello Paolo,
it is the first time that I hear that request. Can you explain what your use case is? Why would you allow some users to see and analyze alerts but do not let them confirm the alerts if the problem is solved?
As the user/date/time is logged if somebody confirms you have the transaparency who confirmed which alert at what point of time.
I think that currently no such split in authorizations is supported but perhaps you can find something in the securtiy guide.

Monitoring proxy abap in business process monitoring

Hi
Expert. Iu2019m working with Business Process Monitoring in my Solution Manager 7.0 sp20.
I would to monitor the communication between SAP ECC and SAP PI.
SAP ECC and SAP PI communicate by proxy.
I would know if can I monitor the proxy abap using SAP PI Message Error Monitoring based on Message-Based-Alerting (RWB).
I have just defined the alert category in abap stack and in RWB. In RWB I have inserted all information in u201CConditionsu201D fields and in the u201CWhere did the error occur?u201D fields I have chose:
Integration engine : XI Proxy
Error Code: *
Is this the correct procedure to monitor a proxy abap?
Thanks a lot
Giou2019

Hello Giovanni,
The described procedure looks correct in general. If you have set any restrictions in "Conditions" fields than you will only monitor on these specific message. If not all message will be considered which turn into a error status on the ABAP Proxy.
For information regarding the PI/XI Message Based Alerting please refer to service.sap.com/bpm -> Media Library -> Technical Information "Setup Guide - Interface Monitoring".
Best regards,

Business process (Integration) monitoring - Solution Manager?

Hi Experts
I have a requirement here for business process monitoring at my client. The client wants to have a solution for monitoring of few key business processes for example incoming orders. The flow data flow is as follows: third party system -> AS2 -> XI1 ->XI2 -> MQ->ERP. Ideally, all the incoming messages should be processed within 3 minutes of sending by thirdy party system. The basic requirement from business to have a view of the number of messages sent by the external system and numbers of orders created in the system and if there is any message with processing time of more than 3 minutes, it should be reported. Also, if there is any failure in any of the points of failure - the reason of failure needs to be reported
I am thinking of using solution mnaager diagnostics and willy introscope for collecting data from XI Adapter framweork and Integration engine and the ERP system.
My queries -
Can solution manager fetch the data from non SAP system - AS2 service/MQ etc? if yes, how?
The solution i am thinking of - is it good one or is there any better solution - light weight/performance efficient?
In case i go ahead with the approach mentioned above, would there be an extra licensing cost for installing SMD agents and Willy on different applications?
Can we do a simple reporting i ERP system by fetching data from XI1 & XI2 systems? I understand that it wouldnt give us any details of the Java components or non SAP applications, but keeping in mind the limitations, is it a viable solution?
Any inputs would be great.
Regards

HI Ethan,
I'm not sure about the BPMon framework in Sol MAn 7.0 if it can be used with PI or not. I remember from teched that the end-to-end monitoring for PI was available only in 7.1 and with SAP PI 711.
From what I know wily gives you information about the status on the system (CPU, memory consumption etc) and not about the message flow so you can still use it but for the technical monitoring set up.
Also in teched I have participated at a hands-on workshop (ALM361 [http://www.sapteched.com/emea/edu_sessions/session.htm?id=542]) where we enabled the BPMon framework to use webservices provided by a non-sap application.
Hope this helps.

Information on Business Process Monitoring

Hello experts,
I want to know if there is a way to monitor spool jobs in business process monitoring or other tool? I assume that I can monitor background jobs with BPMon but I don't find where I can monitor the content of the spool generated by the job?
I read also that job management can monitor jobs, but for the task "monitoring", it refers to BPMon.
Can you please tell me if I can do it? because I read in some doc that it is possible but no way to find how.
Thank you in advance for your help.
BR,
Mohamed BOUSSAID

Hello Mohamed,
the job monitoring does not allow the monitoring of a spool file as it is an unstructured TemSe file. If you have important information to monitor you should write it into the job log and classify it via message class, message type and message number. Such structured information can be easily monitored via BPMon.
Monitoring the content of a unstrucutred spool file which can easily get several MB is too performance expensive and hence not supported.
Best Regards
Volker
