WAE system monitoring question

Hi all,
We have 15 WAE include the CMA and are increasing every month.
So we need to look at how to do a good basic system monitoring for the WAE's.
Is there a way to setup so we can get the alarms from the CMA by email?
Any other suggestion?
Jan Rockstedt

Jan,
In addition to the Central Manager GUI, you can also access the alarms via SNMP and the CM XML API. There is currently no option for having the alarms sent out via email.

System monitoring - alert email notification

Hello Sapers,
I already set up system monitoring in our Solution Manager but i would like to receive mail if any alert occur. Unfortunatelly I did not find any way how to do it through Solution Manager. I guess there must be something like edit -> Automatic email transmission where I set up sending Earlywatch and SL reports to my mailbox, but how to set up alert email notification?
I also tried another way - setting up CEN (in our sollution manager) in RZ20, there i created monitor where i have desired alerts from all remote systems configured in SMSY (i have not used sapccm4x or any other ccms agent), also tried autoreaction method on local and it is working fine (SCOT is set up) but when i tried create and assign central autoreaction method (sapnote 429265) during assigning i receive error "no ccms agent avalable for system" and it is not working. Do I really need configure SAPCCM4X on all remote systems when i want to use central autoreaction? I dont feel very confortable with this solution. I think there must be some other smarter way (maybe in solution manager).
We also tried to connect our RZ20 monitor set to nagios (used in our company to monitor non sap servers and email notification), but we are not able to compile the ccms nagios plugin uder 64bit. AIX 5.3.
I also heard little bit about ALM (Alert management) but dont know anything about forwarding alerts from RZ20 to ALM and transmitting email from there. But I think this sollution would be the most difficult from all mentioned above.
Thank you very much for any help

Josef,
Somewhat chasing the point here - when you have the Solman and you look in your CCMS and you can see the other systems - it is all RFC data and not actually on the Solution Manager (the only local MTE's are those tha belong to the Solution Manager). For the Solution Manager to Centrally Auto-React to threasholds (act as the CEN System), the information needs to be passed to the Central System through the agents.
If you want to do email threasholds on your remote systems, you can configure it on each of the systems individually without agents as this is a CCMS Function that any SAP System can do - but this is not Central Auto-Reaction. This is just actions taken on individual systems based on local MTE's.
To Centrally Auto-React - you have to add the agents so the information is passed to the CEN to react on.
I hope that this has clarified the situation a bit more. If this answers your question, please set this thread to answered.

System Monitoring - Solman 7 EHP1

Hi
Solution Manager 7.0 EHP1 / Windows 2008 / Oracle
Satellite System R/3 Enterprise extn set 110 / Solaris on Sparc / Oracle
I am having trouble configuring System monitoring on solution Manager. Here is what I have done
Added the satellite system to SLD, Configured data collector (RZ70) in the satellite system, Pushed data from SLD to SMSYS (automatic transfer).
Installed CCMS agent + CCMSPING agent in satellite system. Checked connectivity in solman with RZ21. Connectivity is fine.
Created Monitor sets and monitors in CCMS for monitoring satellite system. Client data is visible in CCMS.
Created a solution in DSWP. Created logical component in SMSY. Assigned the logical component to the solution. Now I can see the data in DSWP.
Here are my questions
==================
1. In DSWP, everytime I have to view data, I have to click on "Setup System Monitoring" to view the alerts in the satellite system
I see a red alert reading for instance availability. Similarly,
In the system monitoring workcenter, I see the status of both the solution manager and the satellite system greyed out with a cross. When I move my mouse over it, it reads, no CCMSPING data available.
Any idea as to why this happens?
2. For what I see after I click on "Setup System Monitoring" I have parameters which I can configure. I see default values for these parameters. Is there like a recommendation or a template which can be used to setup these monitoring parameter values?
3. I have configured the ccmsping in the solution manager (for the solution manager) however the ccmsping service refuses to run. It throws a error reading "The system could not find the file specified". The ccmsping exe file is present in the location stated. Are there other files that this is looking for?
4. While registering the agent in the satellite system, I first registered with the CSMREG id. It failed with the message,
INFO: [SMG:040:CSMREG] connected to SMG, host sapsm.NA.XXX.NET, System Nr. 00, traceflag [ ]
INFO: SMG release is 701 , (kernel release 701 )
        RFC Error Info:
         message:
         status: EXCEPTION AUTHORITY_NOT_AVAILABLE RAISED
         intstat:
      Go Ahead anyway? n/[y] :
INFO: handling destination SAPCCM4X.SAPR3PR1.00
ERROR: can't register at SMG. RfcRc = 2, AUTHORITY_NOT_AVAILABLE
RFC Error Info for SALF_CSM_AGENT_REGISTER
message:
status: EXCEPTION AUTHORITY_NOT_AVAILABLE RAISED
intstat:
I then did this with a dialog user. That worked. Agent was registered in solution manager. Any idea on why this error would show up with the CSMREG? I am concerned about issues which can come up when the password for the dialog user changes.
I am not sure how to upload screenshots of what i see, probably if i do that, it will be easy to relate to the issue which I am mentioning here. Is there a way I can do that?
Let me know if you need any more information from my side to understand this.
Ideas will be appreciated.
thanks
Ravi

Hello Ravi,
Additionally you will want to look at SAP Note 1175058 - Problems with CCMSPING in SAP Solution Manager, especially
c) Ensure that the message server host name in the monitoring options of CCMSPING and the message server of the corresponding main instance of the relevant system is the same in the SAP Solution Manager landscape
(SMSY). Important: The monitoring options of CCMSPING must not be configured using an IP address.

Paul

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:

Hope this helps. Award with relevant points if my response is helpful.
Thank you.

System Monitoring Issue.

Dears ,
We are using Solman 7.0,SP16 on Oracle 10.2.0.2.
We are configuring System Monitoring for our ECC5(DEV,QAS,PRD) landscape on it.
Now for it I added system in SMSY then assigned them in logical comp as per their role and then assigned that log comp to a solution.
Now when I goto DSWP->setup system monitoring...
It only show me producation server and its dialog instances there not my DEV and QAS server.
So my first question is
1--Do I have to create seprate solutions and seprate log comp to configure system monotoring for all servers.
2-In configuration there are some parameters like programme buffer whose threshold value it is not picking by defualt so when I go to metion in RZ21 there are some option like message class,method assignment about which I am not aware so please suggest how can I configure such type of parameters.
Shivam

Go to tx DSWP
Choose your solution
Go to Operation Setup (in left screen)
Go to Solution Settings (in right screen)
Choose tab "System Group"
You'll find your logical component with in it your systems, probably only your PRD is highlighted in green.
Go to change mode, right click the systems you want to add (QAS & DEV) and choose "put in solution".
Don't forget to save!
If all is well, all your systems should be visible when you want to setup system monitoring now.

Performance Monitor (System Monitor Scale) I do not understand

Hi, I am trying to understand System Monitor and the his mesuares buy exists a point that I can not to understand.
I see the performance in the task manager and I use 1.57 GB of 2 GB of memory.
I go to the system monitor and I added the "Avaible MBytes" counter and the chart is on 100% and the value for Last, Average, Minimun and Maximun are 773, 774, 773 and 775 with a scale of 1,000.
If I change the scale to 0.1 the percentage of the chart change to 78% aprox. and the value are the same but, If I change to 0.01 this chart change to 8% aprox.
I do not understand where is the exactly scale that I have to use to see the really percentage of the counter, this question is over this particular counter.
I was clear? Could you help me?
thanks.

The counter you are displaying charts in MB it does not chart in an Percent.
To truely understand what is going on in memory you will need to read memory chapter in:
Windows® Internals, Fifth Edition
http://www.microsoft.com/learning/en/us/Book.aspx?ID=12069&locale=en-us
The available MB counters includes what is in Free Memory and Standby List. The standby list will not be flushed unless there is memory presure on the OS.

Short Dumps in System Monitoring

Hi!
I set up the system monitoring in SAP Solution Manager.
The most alerts I get from short Dumps.
In order to avoid this issue I would like to optimize the settings of short dumps.
Here my questions:
- Is it possible to set the threshold values behind short dumps
- If I switch off the short dumps is there some possibilities to be inform about frequency?
- Is there some other possibilities to optimize this issue?
Thank you very much!
regards
Thom

Hi Thom.
I think what you need is to setup in System Monitoring the threshold values for the following MTEs of the Satellite System:
Transaction RZ20 --> <Instance> --> R3Abap
This MTE has two attributes:
Shortdumps (MTE Class:R3AbapShortdumps)
Shortdumps Frequency (MTE Class:R3AbapShortdumpsFreq)
By clicking on the properties of one of each attribute you can setup the threshold for how many alerts you want to maintain (General Tab). In Performance tab you will be able to customize the threshold for the alerts.
Hope this helps
Antonio

System Monitoring (Availability of satellite systems)

Hi!
I would like to set up System monitoring in SAP Solution Manager.
First of all the availibility of SAP systems is of great interest for me.
How can I create and add the monitoring context for the systems in tcode RZ20?
Is some suitable documentation for my question?
Thank you very much

Hi,
the relevant documentation can be found under item "Availability Monitoring with CCMSPING" at

Solution Managers System monitoring and CCMS/CEN

Hi.
Could anybody enlighten me on the Role of CCMS / CEN in the Solution manager Monitoring.
I have set up solution manager to Monitor my landscape. I have set up user defined limits and email alerts. These Alerts and the alerting agent - I assume - are carried out on the system being monitored.
Now the question - I want the Solution manager box to be the CEN and do the Alerting centrally (from the SM box) - Will the MTE's and Alerts that I have assigned and configured through System Monitoring use the properties set up though the CCMS?
I assume I will have to install the CCMS agents on all the target boxes - Will the Solution manager box process the Statics and send out the alerts from itself? If so How much workload does this place on the network and the box?
Why does the solution manager not act as the central processing and alerting box from the start? If we go through the effort of setting up the monitoring - why does it not set up Collection and Alerting at the same time?
Any feedback will be appreciated.
Thanks
Terry H.

Hi Terry,
Solution Manager System Monitoring is using CCMS infrastructure, so we have two different ways to collect data (alerts) from the satellite systems, first via CCMS agents as you mentioned or the option to use RFC destinations to read the alerts. This can be configured automatically by SMSY in Solution Manager. The second option produces higher network workload, because every alert will be checked every 3 minutes, with agents only new alert values will be pushed.
I hope this info helps you

uDo

System Monitoring: Navigation to Satellite System

Hello All,
I have configured System Monitoring.
In SolMan -> Monitoring Graphic -> I check Alerts
Now, for some Alerts itallows me to click the Alert and navigate to that particular Transaction in Satellite System. The Alert itself is a Link(Blue Font)
For Others it is not allowing me to navigate to that particular Transaction in Satellite System. The Alert is a Black Bold Font
Why so?
Thanks!

Hello SALPG ADMIN ,
I can confirm that the alerts appearing in black blod letters are having no problems, it is just representing a different MTE.
As you know every alert in the System Monitoring Graphic of SAP Solution Manager is just mapping the data from the corresponding Monitoring Tree Element (MTE) in the CCMS, transaction RZ20.
The alerts that you see without link, not in blue colour but in black & bold lettters, are corresponsing to MTEs that do not have any Analysis Method assigned in RZ20, and therefore, there is no transaction on the satellite system that you can check to display more details for the alert.
On the other hand, the Alerts in the graphic that have blue colour, are mappping MTEs which do have an Analysis Method assigned in RZ20, and when you click on the link, you just trigger this Analysis Method and jump into the monitored system, in the respective Analysis Transaction; for example, for update error alert, you would jump into SM13.
You can just prove this if you got o RZ20 and check the porpertied of the MTEs that you see in the Graphic.
I hope this clarifies your question,
With kind regards,
Marta

CCMS is used for system monitoring , why should we use solution manage ?

CCMS is used for system monitoring , why should we use solution manage ?
Whats the relationship between CCMS system and SolMan?
Thank you .

hi,
I just want to ask a question. At our client we have solution manager and CCMS. There is data in CCMS I can extract, it is loading on BW side ok the same number of recs, but the problem on CCMS cubes says there are the same number of record in the cube and also showing as the data is ready for the reporting. But when I run the report and view the data as listcube it is empty.
ANy of you have the situation like this cube say it has the data but when do th BEX or infocube contents the cube is empty nothing in there. The same thing is happening with hourly, 15 minute and daily cubes.
Anyhelp on this matter is appreciated

System monitoring - DSWP and RZ21

Hi all,
I am using sap solution managers workcenter "System monitoring" to set up the sap monitornig for a huge landscape. This works well, but to receive alerts (e.g. per mail) I additionaly have to do the settings in RZ21 (assign central autoreactions). This is not very comfortable because each setting has to be done twice (in dwsp and rz21) and there is also the risk to forget something. Do you know any other possibility? Do you know about plans to integrate the functions of RZ21 into DSWP?
Thanks
Michael

HI
We are setting up system monitoring is solman? i do have the same doubt as mentioned earlier

System Monitoring / Administration asking for logon id

Each time I click on, "System Monitoring / Administration" in DSWP, a dialog box pops up asking me for a username and password. I've tried using the local system admin password, SAP*, my own SAP logon id, the J2EE_ADMIN user, etc.. but the dialog box just keeps popping back up. This doesn't happen under any other tab (i.e. Early Watch). If I hit cancel, I get the error below:
Logon failed
What has happened?

System Monitoring - add SAP PI 711 system

All,
I'm facing problems when I want to add the ABAP stack of my SAP PI 7.11 system...
I use Monitoring Setup Guide (CEN SAP NetWeaver 7.0 EhP 1, SPS 08) to do my setup --> Entering Monitored ABAP Systems with Release SAP NetWeaver 7.1 in ST03G.
Using transaction RZ21--> technical infrastructure --> Configure central system --> create remote monitoring entry.
Next, I choose for DualStack for the component type to be monitored. I fill in all the necessary data and save the entry.
Nothing happens and I do not see the system appearing in the system overiew list.
For single-stack ABAP systems, no problems appear and I can add them.
Please advice.
Thanks.

Dear Dimitri,
The problem is that these products
01200314690800000134 -- 9 -- I -- C
01200314690800000134 -- 34 -- I -- C
These products will need to be reverted to S ( SAP BASIS) from C (NON_SAP BASIS)
Since these are primary keys, you will need to copy and change the + existing record, and then delete the old one.
Once this is done, you will have to perform the following:
Call transaction SMSY. Chose System Groups and Logical Components.
Expand 'Logical Components' - 'SAP NETWEAVER'. Expand the product
instances 'Mobile Infrastructure' and 'Process Integration'. For all
logical components that have systems repeat the following procedure.
1. Check if the logical component is used in solutions using the where
    used button. If no, you can continue with the next one.
2. If yes, note which systems are assigned to which role.
3. Go to change mode and remove the systems from the logical component
     by selecting system SPACE with the value help.
4. Save. Check if a warning says that System monitoring is active.
5. Add the same systems again.
6. Save.
7. If system monitoring was active in a solution the customer should
    run the system monitoring setup for the solution again.
If you are not comfortable making these changes, you can raise a message with SAP.
However once this is done, then the SIDs will be offered and selectable.
Regards,
Paul
