XI 3.0 versus NWA (CEN system)

Hi,
in our company, we have up to 30 productive systems. From Releases 46c to ERP 7.0 (BW, CRM ...)!
These SAP systems are all connected (agents) with CEN, the central monitoring system (NW04, double stack, SPS 16)!
All is fine and working well!
Now i have configure the NWA from CEN! In all guides, the authors write that all satellite abap systems have to connect to SLD with transaktion rz70 and on java side with the SLD Data Supplier in the local admin console!
My questions is:
What should i do with XI 3.0 SR1! I want also bind the XI on NWA (SLD from CEN)!
All our XI systems (Dev, CONS, PROD) have an own SLD!
What can I do, to use both SLDs (CEN, lokal SLD)?
sldapicust?
rz70?
SLD Data Supplier?
manuell?
Thanks!

Hi,
Maybe you can use the Data Supplier Bridge of the local SLD's of your XI-systems, to forward the data to the SLD of you CEN...

What are the pros/cons of having 1 large BI system versus 2 medium systems?

What are the pros/cons of having 1 large BI system versus 2 medium systems? Are there any known limits as to how large a BI system can be until it experiences performance problems?
Thanks!

Hi,
I dont think there is any limit as long as your DB and Apps servers support it.
There are case studies on systems from 20 TB to 60 TB.
Regarding having two meduim installations it may not be a right choice if you consider facts like routine maintenance, DB upgrades and reorganization, number of resources required, number of DEV and QUAL servers required (this will increase as each PROD requires one DEV and one QUAL atleast).
If you have a single PROD you can do away with this.
One DEV , one QUAL and a single team of dedicated resources are required to maintain the system.

Information needed on having one more CEN system for the monitored systems

Hi Everyone,
I need some information regarding configuring of one more CEN system
system for the systems which are already being monitored by another
central system.
1) Do I need to register a new CCMS agent on the monitored system for the NEW CEN system again. As I already have sapccm4x registered in the monitored system for the old CEN system, which i think can't be used for the new CEN system.
If I can go with configuring NEW CEN system for the same monitored systems, can you tell me how should I proceed.
Can anyone help me by providing the information for this issue.
Regards,
Bharath Kumar.K

1) yes you can use DSL with what you have, but you want more RAM and I would recommend getting OSX.3 or above because the web browsers for OS9, which I assume is what you are running, are a bit dated and not well supported any longer.
2) Yes you can add more RAM. The 64meg stick in there can be removed. You can add up to 1 Gig of RAM via two 512Mb PC100 or PC133 DIMMS.
See here: http://tinyurl.com/qdlo3
I would add at least 512 Mb if you use OSX and no less than 256 mb if you are using OS9
3) No you can not use CD-R or CDRW with the hardware you have. That iMac only has a CDRom drive and can not burn CDs. You can buy an external CD burner if you want to back up to CDRs
PS: You may want to remove your serial number from your post. Granted the warranty has expired but there's no need or reason to list it.

NWA Compare systems Feature **flop**

Hi Members,
I'm trying to compare two Java systems through NWA - Compare system URL
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw73/helpdata/en/6b/f6b4cb19324651811de8c4647c0b69/content.htm
Open SAP NetWeaver Administrator and choose > Troubleshooting Java ->Compare Systems .
You can also use the quick link: http://<host>:<port>/nwa/cs
with Remote compare option.
This giving not good results, I found Development system components are present in system but report showing it's missing is there any issue with Compare feature?
We are using NW 7.30 SP1 for both systems.
Thanks in advance.

Solution Manager - NWA & CEN - How they fit in ?

Hi,
I have been working with XI and have come across the central monitoring system CEN and the netweaver administrator (NWA) tools.
Does anyone know how they fit into Solution Manager. Especially why you have solution Manager Diagnostics and NWA....are they not the same thing?
Currently it looks like we'll have an XI landscape being monitored by CEN & NWA and then the same landscape also being monitored by solution manager. This seems like a double up of work to me.
Thanks
Jim

Hi Pascal,
Thank for that...
Would i be right in saying then that CEN is part of solution manager 4.0 i.e comes with webas 640/700 anyway ??
So for a "perfect/easy" support environment you would have sol man 4.0 managing all your abap components from both a read/write point of view and then sol man managing j2ee area on a read only basis while NWA administering your j2ee's on a read/write basis.
And ideally have all these components looking at the same SLD.
Hope above make sense
Cheers
Jim

NWA local system administration

Hi all,
I am having a issue in NWA.The problem is that while logging it shows a Local system administration only.If i try to define the system selection its grayed out. So i searched in SDN and i found that i want to activate two entries in CIM client testings.
The problem started for me here only. There is no such application like
sap.com/tclmwebadminmainframewd/webdynpro/public/lib/app.jar
sap.com/tclmwebadminsldwd/webdynpro/public/lib/app.jar
Instead of that i found these settings.
sap.com/tclmwebadminsldwd/webdynpro/public/lib/sap.com/tclmwebadminsldwd.jar
sap.com/tclmwebadminmainframewd/webdynpro/public/lib/sap.com/tclmwebadminmainframewd.jar
So wat can i do?
Any suggestions?
Regards
Vijay

I solved that problem by restarting the instance after activating those values in CIM client testing

System monitoring work center and CEN system

Hi everybody.
I'm setting up the central monitoring, using SSM as monitoring system. I'm also having a look at the work center for system monitoring; but I don't find how to link the central monitoring capabilities with this dashboard.
I mean, it looks the central monitoring does not provide any advantage to work with this work center, am I right? Anyone has experienced this?
Thanks for your answers!!
Fermí

Hi!
I've done finished this issue!
Please follow steps below:
1. Create activity type in T-Code: KL01
2. Go to KP26 to create the realtionship between Cost Center and Activity.
Now you can see new activity in Costing tab.

Raw devices versus Cluster File Systems in RAC 10gR2

Hi,
Does anyone using cluster file systems in a RAC 10gR2 installation, specifically IBMs GPFS?
Ive visited a company that is running RAC 10gR2 in AIX over raw devices. Why someone would choose to use raw devices , with all the problems to administer , when all the modern file systems are so powerful? Is there any issues when using cluster file systems + RAC? Is there considerable performance benefits when using raw devices with RAC ?
I´ve always used Oracle stand alone instances over file systems (since version 7) , and performance was always very good. I´ve tested raw devices almost 10 years ago , and even in that time (the hardware today is much better - SAN , 15K rpm disks , huge caches - and the file systems software today is much better) the cost to administer it does not compensate the benefits (only 5% more faster than file systems in Oracle 7).
So , besides any limitations imposed by RAC , why use raw devices nowadays ?
Regards,
Antonio Belloni

Hi,
spontaneously, my question would be: How did you eliminate the influence of the Linux File System Cache on ext3? OCFS2 is accessed with the o_direct flag - there will be no caching. The same holds true for RAW devices. This could have an influence on your test and I did not see a configuration step to avoid it.
What I saw, though, is "counter test": "I have tried comparing simple file copies from an OS level and the speed differences are not apparent - so the issue only manifests itself when the data is read via an oracle db." and I have no good answer to that one.
Maybe this paper has: http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/linux/pdf/Linux-FS-Performance-Comparison.pdf - it's a bit older, but explains some of the interdependencies.
Last question: While you spent a lot of effort on proving that this one query is slower on OCFS2 or RAW than on ext3 for the initial read (that's why you flushed the buffer cache before each run), how realistic is this scenario when this system goes into production? I mean, how many times will this query be read completely from disk as opposed to use some block from the buffer? If you consider that, what impact does the "IO read time from disk" have on the overall performance of the system? If you do not isolate the test to just a read, how do writes compare?
Just some questions. Thanks.

Integreated Versus Non integreated system of accounting

Hello experts
I want to know whether integreated and non integreated system of accounting can be followed concurrently in SAP.
that is to have the separate system for cost accouting and financial accouting and to have the separate trial balance as per cost accouting and financial accounting. is it possible?
Basically because of the inherent differences in these two types of accouting, there will be different profits .
Hence i want to know whether it is possible to have the different trial balance as per these two systems?

Within SAP you can produce a P&L statement both in FI (finance) and CO (controlling). Trial balance exists in FI. The answer to your question is yes.

NWA template installer required for remote systems

We've installed a NW 7.0 SP13 Java System that will be used for MDM Enrichment. During the installation we specified the Central SLD (a different NW7.0) system when prompted. I can see this new system in our Central SLD under the "technical systems" area. Following the installation, is there any reason to run any or part of the NWA template installers on either this new Java system or on our SLD system? Our SLD system is not being used as the CEN system, so the system will just be administered locally.
I'm trying to understand if any sort of connection data from the new system to the central sld is missing if any of the template installers is not run after the installation.
Thanks.

Open a pdf from a buffered stream versus file system?

With the PDF Library SDK is it possible to open a pdf from a stream versus the file system?

Yes, but not trivially. You would have to implement your own
ASFileSys, which is a method for accessing "files". This is a
collection of methods, rather like an object oriented class, but in C.
You would have to support get, put, open, random access, file naming
etc.

Could not view System in CEN

Hi,
I am in the process of configuring CCMS for my Landscape
I have configured CEN in System A and i have installed and started the necessary services in the System B , which has to be monitored
I logged into Rz21 of CEN System(system A) , i am able to see that the System B is Active
I understand that i have to go to Rz20 of CEN System---> My Templates to configure CCMS for System B
But when i go to Rz20 of CEN System , could not see the My Template option
Please help

Hi,
I don't think you going to have an option for My template. Rather you need to create a your own template from standard SAP Templates.By selecting the required components for system B and define as your monitoring template.
There you define the all the thresolds for system B.
Hope this helps.

Remote system monitoring entry- data not relayed to Central system

Hello Folks,
I am trying to establish a central monitoring system for our client. I am trying to test it in the DEV environment first.
The central system is a Solution manager system (Dual stack- ABAPJAVA). I am trying to bring in monitoring data from the ECC development environment (ABAPJAVA).
First of, i created to RFC connections in Solution manager system, one for data collection and the other for analysis. I have maintained the host address of the ECC system as target.
Then i have created a remote system entry in Transaction RZ21--> technical infrastructure entered the 2 RFC names and have executed the function.
At this point i am only trying to bring in ABAP stack monitoring data form the ECC system so i have not generated the CSNCONF file.
Now when i look in Solution manager RZ20-->CCMS monitoring templates, i can't see any data for the the ECC system.
I guess i am doing something wrong. Am i looking in the wrong monitor set?
As additional information: Solution manager (SMD) and ECC (ECD) use different transport domains / transport groups. I dont know if this makes a difference.
Can some one please help.
Regards,
Prashant

Hi Prashant,
if I understand correctly your system shows only MTEs from R/3 Stack, not from the OS side, pls check your SAPOSCOL. Are the data in OS06 in your remote system correct and do you see the current data, refredhed all 10 seconds?
To check your environment, pls do the following:
in th efirst step check in RZ21 > in the Topology part the System Overview for your system connection to your back end system. Are the Read Destination Data RFC and the Destination Analysis RFC correct and works the authority chek fine?
In the second step pls check in RZ21 > in the Agents for Remotey SAP Systems part; are there registered your remote ccms agents correctly and works the connection test.
Stop the agents and in your RZ20 monitor pls enter STAT in your command field. Are there displayed for your MTE nodes the read RFC destinations?
Start the agents and and in your RZ20 monitor pls enter STAT in your command field. Are there displayed for your MTE nodes the CCMS Agent RFC destinations?
To rebuild the Monitor in the CEN system you could try to reset the node of your remote system in the warm up status > go in the remote system to RZ1 > go to local segments > change to edit > select your segments > reset segment in "WARMUP" status.
In the CEN system you coul try to go to the edit mode for the Agents for Remot SAP Systems > select your remote system and push the button Reinitialize Agents
In the back end system you can try to delete all MTEs in RZ21 > menu Technical Infrastructure > Reorgenize Segment Table > select the options with "ALL" in the CEN and the remote system to reorgenize all data.
Could you pls post for the missing MTEs a screenshot on the one side from the CEN system and on the other side from the remote system...
and last but not least you could try the following for missing OS MTEs
delete ALALERTS, ALMTTREE and ALPERFHI in /usr/sap/ccms/<SID>_<SNR> and check in the agents folder all trace and log files for errors.

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.
