Displaying Availability (SAP Library - Global Workload Monitor)

Displaying Availability

Use

You can use the Global Workload Monitor to analyze the workload of both SAP R/3 and non-SAP R/3 Systems. There are various analysis views available to you for SAP R/3 Systems, and Analyses for non-SAP R/3 Systems.

An analysis displays a particular aspect of the workload. One of these aspects it the question of whether there is actually any statistical for a particular component. If the component no longer sends statistics data for a certain period of time, the component statistics are regarded as unavailable. You can set this time interval (the check interval) separately for each component type (see Setting Parameters for Statistics Generation); the default length is 15 minutes. As soon as statistics data is available again, the component is regarded as available again.

Note

You cannot assume that the component is not available because the statistics records are not available. There are diverse, critical and non-critical reasons for the lack of data, such as

- There are no requests at the component

- Statistics collection is deactivated

- The file system has become full

Procedure

...

1. Start the Global Workload Monitor by calling transaction ST03G.

2. In the Workload tree in the upper left subscreen, select the component type and the component that you want to analyze. For more information about the structure of the workload tree, see Structure of the Workload Tree of the Global Workload Monitors.

3. In the Analyses tree in the lower left subscreen, choose the Availability option.

4. An output area appears, in which the requested lists are displayed in an Structure link ALV Grid Controls.

Result

The system displays a list of periods for which the statistics data of the selected components is available or note available. If you have selected a component of the component type (TOTAL) for a summary, the system also displays the availability of all components that are combined for the aggregation of TOTAL in the Single Components tab page.
