Central System Administration - Monitoring question

We are trying to setup the Central System Administration/Monitoring in solution manager. However, when we go into the setup of the tasks, such as "Checking for ABAP Short Dumps", when we click on the "Start ST22" button, it doesn't do anything.
Has anyone had an experience with figuring out how to get those buttons to work and to connect directly into the system we are doing the task?
We did follow Note 128447 to setup the Trusted RFC's between the systems, but that doesn't seem to working correctly either. Could that be the reason that this isn't working correctly?
Thanks in advance for any replies.
Dale Dingmann

Hi,
May I know how did you configure your CEN monitoring, using agents, or using RFC.
And where you are checking the ABAP dumps on Workcenter?? will you able to get the other details like Job failure, if you click that, wil you able to reach the satellite system.
and check below are available.
SM_<SID>CLNT100_READ
SM_<SID>CLNT100_TWM
SM_<SID>CLNT100_TRUSTED
if you use RFC monitoring these 2 also required,
<SID of the monitored_system>_RZ20_COLLECT
<SID of the monitored system>_RZ20_ANALYZE
Thanks,

Administration / Monitoring no agent

I want to be sure of this answer before I give it to my superiors.
Is there any type of administration or monitoring that can be done without an Intelligent Agent on the server that the database resides on (that you want to monitor)?
Regards
Tim

Hi Timothy
My name is Robert, and I am Oracle DBA 8 years ago. The answer to your question have two possibilities:
1. There are a different softwares for some enterprises to monitoring a entire IT enviroment. The most populars: HP Openview, IBM Tivoli, BMC Patrol, Nimbus,. etc. All of these like Oracle Grid Control install an agent in the machine that is monitored. The explanation is very simple. The agent is the program that collect the information and after send this information to central console. All softwares of this type work at same way. Other consideration is the size of this agent and the consume in cpu and memory of this agent. The agent of openview is in my experience a good example of performance , because work without affect the performance of the machine.
2. Other software that monitoring not work with agent, but the funcionality and possibilities are limited. An example is Quest Spotlight , that not work with a agent. This software install a schema user in oracle database .
The best solution is the 1.

How to reproduce the interface of Home/Administration/Monitor Activity

Hi,
In order to recreate an environment like the administration panel of APEX 4.1,w which template needs to be used?
Specifically, in order to produce a menu system using Lists similar to the one at page: http://localhost:7777/apex/f?p=4350:22 whar combinations of Regions/ Lists can be used?
Thanks

It depends on the security level of the interface. The graph will show the interface with the lowest level. If there are 2 interfaces with the same security level then it will go alphabetically.
Please rate if this helps.

Visual Administration Monitoring Components turns Red for Loaded Applicatio

Hi Experts,
In our Producion system,When i check the Monitoring tree I found the below component in Red Status.
Root -> Services -> Portal -> Portal Runtime -> Loaded Applications (366 Applications )
I see that Loaded Applications tree is in Red status. When i go to configuration Tab for this tree i see the the threshold
value for Red is maintained as 300.
Could you please confirm if this is normal or is it a matter of concern ?
Does this signify that we have lot many applications deployed with respect to our current portal Configs..
Two weeks back we have faced a situation wherein our portal system got hanged that no one was able to login and we have restarted our server to rectify the problem.I want to know if the above problem is due to above alerts being thrown in VA monitoring.

What's the difference between XI basis and regular basis?

I am an SAP basis admin for years.
Now my corp starts to use XI.
What is the difference between XI basis and regular basis if there is any?
Thanks!

Hi,
No difference... Basis is Basis (Technical consultant)... According to me its just terminology changed. i.e. SAP Administrator instead of SAP basis.
For XI you may need to additionally control the Java stack administartion along with ABAP stack.
Please go thourgh the below link to know about SAP NetWeaver Administrator, then you may compare with regular Basis activities

How to create a Index for KM documents

Hi Experts.......
I have two queries .
1,How to create a Index for the KM Server documents so that when ever i am in need of particular document,i can be able to retrive the exact document within short time......
2,What Is TREX? Need of TREX ?
If any one have documents for the above said queries kindly send it to [email protected]
Thanks in Advance,
Jasmine

Hi Jasmine,
1.In the EP 6.0 you can create index System Administration -> System Configuration -> Knowledge Management -> Index Administration
2.TREX is search engine that will proccess the documents that you have specified in the index Data sources when you have created the index.
The status of TREX you can see in System Administration -> Monitoring -> Knowledge Management -> TREX Monitor or Index Monitor for indexing monitoring.
If you don't have connected any TREX engine to J2EE, just start the visual administrator and configure the TREX service.
To install the TREX you can follow the instguides for TREX service.sap.com/instguides SAP Netweaver->Release 04 or 2004s -> Installation -> Cross-NW
I hope that it helps.

Material Document number

Hi MM Gurus,
Is it possible to allocate Material and Accounting Document Ranges of
Goods receipt plantwise? Kindly give your valuable inputs.
Ex:
Plant 1 : 5000000000 to 5000010000
Plant 2 : 5000010001 to 5000020000 etc.
Regards
Yoga

Hi Yoga ,
Number ranges assign numbers to individual commercial object database records (e.g. purchase document, addresses, etc.).
Implementation Considerations
A number range object must have been defined for the commercial object in question to enable number ranges to be used. Number ranges can then be determined for the number range object. The numbers assigned by the number range create a unique key for the database records in the system.
Integration
Number ranges and number range intervals are maintained either via the application implementation guide or via the R/3 menu ( Tools -.>Administration -> Monitor -> Number range buffer ).
Features
Number Range Object and Number Ranges
Subdivision of Number Range Objects
Number Range Object Types
Maintaining Number Ranges
Transporting Number Range Intervals
A number range object contains all the definitions which are needed for the number assignment for a commercial object. One or more number ranges can be assigned to a number range object.
A set of characters or numbers is defined in the number range. A number range can be:
external
The numbers are assigned manually by the user.
internal
The numbers are assigned automatically by the system.
The number range is identified in the system by the number range number.
The character set in the number range is determined by the number range interval. It consists of numbers or alpha-numeric characters, and is delimited by the fields from-number and to-number.

Document Types in use

Is there an easy way to retrieve all the document types which are stored in the portal km?(example .xls, .doc etc)

Hello Thomas,
you have the possibility to make an advanced search with the KM Search iView. Within the advanced search you can change the value from Items to documents. The result page shows only documents to which the index or indexes are pointing. If you do not have an index, you have to create one. You can create an index by navigating to System Administration -> System Configuration -> Knowledge Management -> Index Administration.
After creating the index you have to flush it. Navigate to System Administration -> Monitoring -> Knowledge Management -> TREX Monitor -> Display Queue Status. Select your index and press flush.
If you want to customize your KM Search iView, refer to this document
<a href="https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/f0747ac2-ffd9-2910-de9a-8a3dc44da8b4">How to Configure Search UI</a>

Flex not resolving a DTD document

Hi,
I am trying to call a method on a java remote object. My
server is set up fine because I have done this before but in this
case the .jar file contains an XML file: AppSpringContext.xml and
this is calling a DTD: spring-beans.dtd.
Both of these files exist in the jar on the root directory.
When the java developer runs his Unit Test it works fine, however
when I attempt to call a method I get the following error:
Line 2 in XML document from class path resource
[AppSpringContext.xml] is invalid; nested exception is
org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: Relative URI "spring-beans.dtd"; can
not be resolved without a base URI.
Has anyone any ideas on this - PLEASE :o)

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you got an error when clicking on the Document ID link of an item.
I recommend to rerun the time jobs: Document ID Assignment Job and Document ID enable/disable under Central Administration > Monitoring > Review Job Definitions.
More information:
SharePoint 2010 Document ID Feature
Activate and configure Document IDs in a site collection

In Trex where does the documents reside ?

We have Enterprise portal and use TREX for collaboration rooms and document indexing. EP is a java only Netweaver stack on AIX and TREX is on a window box. What I wanted to know is where do the actual documents, which TREX indexes reside?
Does Trex retain a copy of the indexed document? For a particular index where is the mapping of the actual document? Where can I look at all this data?
Pls advise.
thank you
regards
Laxmi

Hello Kai,
documents original location is transparent on KM, whether it is on a external repository or not doesn't matter,
for KM and TREX it is part of repository manager (configured at System Administration > System Configuration >
Knowledge Management > Content Managenement > Repository Managers).
Once a repository manager is activeted, there are several services running on top of it, eg.: subscription, rating,
etc. and other global services which affects every repository. Crawler service and Index Management are the
global services which will do indexing work
In fact TREX doesn't look for documents, the crawler is the component that retrieves the documents and
deliver for TREX. Have in mind that the crawler is part of KM, not TREX. It is active for every repository,
you can check on the monitor at System Administration > Monitoring
for more information: http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/fb/38ef207d0a47ee9dc08deeed855392/frameset.htm
once documents are retrieved by the crawler and is at TREX hands, it will index normally, it uses
a file system based architecture, if you browse through TREX server you can find the indexes you have
created as folders and documents information inside. Be careful when checking at file system level, data
there is designed for TREX work only, it doesn't serve as backup and can't be considered for any
other functioning.
kind regards,
Rafael

Documents Search

Hi,
I configured EP with TREX6.0, but I could not able search document through TREX document search function.
I done the following configuration steps:
I configured a File Repository, I am able to access files through document iView.
I created an index and assign the file repository to the index.
I configured the TREX client in J2EE TREX Service.
somehow when I search the documents, it does not get any documents, it is just giving message "No match have been found"
Can anybody tell me where I am missing.
Thanks in advance
Srinivas Sandaka

Hi Srinivas,
could you please go to "System Administration -> System Configuration -> Knowledge Management -> Index Administration" and do a "Reindex" of your created index? Than you should check if there is a problem crawling the documents or indexing the documents:
1. Go to "System Administration -> Monitoring -> Knowledge Management -> Crawler Monitor". After less than one minute you should see how many documents were found and "Delivered" by the crawling process (Show Last Hour)
2. Got to "System Administration -> Monitoring -> Knowledge Management -> TREX Monitor -> Display Queues" and check the status of your documents. They should be on "To Be Transmitted". Go to -> "Change Queue Status" mark your index and press "Flush". Check again "Display Queues" and your documents should be on "OK".
Now the search should find the documents. If you documents are on "Preparation Failed" or "Synchronization Failed" you should check -> "Display Queue Entries" and see the "Return Message".
Hope this helps,
Robert
