Monitoring TREX with CCMS 

Use

You can use the monitoring functions of CCMS (Computing Center Management System) to monitor Search and Classification (TREX). This documentation describes how to configure and use the monitoring functions.

For more information about CCMS, see Monitoring in CCMS.

After the TREX installation, all files and directories that you require for correct operation of CCMS and GRMG are available on your host: The CCMS agent SAPCCMSR, and the library DSRLIB (name extensions depend on the platform). These files are located in the directory <TREX_DIR>/exe.

The TREX Admin Tool (Stand-Alone) also provides a monitoring function for monitoring processes, errors, and alerts. The TREX alert server regularly checks central TREX functions and can notify you by email of the system status in the event of an error or incorrect configuration. This information is also visible via CCMS.

Prerequisites

You have configured CCMS monitoring for TREX by performing the following steps:

●      Configuring Parameter Reporting

●      Configuring Monitoring of Availability (Heartbeat/GRMG)

●      Configuring Monitoring of Log Files

●      Configuring Monitoring of Processes

 

Features

The following monitoring functions are available:

●      Monitoring of Parameters, Availability, Log Files, and Processes

○       Parameter Reporting

○       Monitoring Availability (Heartbeat/GRMG)

○       Monitoring Log Files

○       Monitoring Processes

●      Activity Tracing

Activity tracing is not part of the CCMS monitoring of TREX. You have to configure activity tracing separately. You monitor the activity tracing for TREX using the J2EE Log Viewer.

 

Naming Conventions

<TREX_DIR>	Installation directory for TREX The path to the directory is: ●      On UNIX: /usr/sap/<SAPSID>/ TRX<instance_number> ●      On Windows <disk_drive>:\usr\sap\<SAPSID>\ TRX<instance_number>
<TREX_GLOBAL>	Global file system for your TREX installation: ●      On UNIX: <SAPGLOBALHOST>/sapmnt/<sapsid>/ profile For example, /usr/sap/<SAPSID>/profile ●      On Windows: <SAPGLOBALHOST>\sapmnt\<SAPSID>\ SYS\profile For example, <drive>:\usr\sap\<SAPSID>\ SYS\profile
<SAPSID>_TRX<instance_number>_<host>	Instance profile for a TREX instance Contains specific information about the runtime environment for a TREX instance.
START_TRX<instance_number>_<host>	Start profile for a TREX instance Specifies the TREX instance number and the host name on which the TREX instance runs.

 

Path Specifications

The forward slash (/) is usually used in path specifications such as <TREX_GLOBAL>/START_TRX<instance_number>_<host>.
