Automatic Data Capture 

Editing automatically captured data

You cannot edit all data manually in servers, databases and systems whose data sources were determined automatically, not manually. You can neither delete automatically captured landscape elements nor change the associated automatically captured data. You can add to this data.

You can set the data source to manual maintenance to be able to edit all data in this landscape  element manually.

Updating automatically captured data

You can choose whether the system automatically overwrites manually entered data, or prompts you when more recent data exists. In the latter case, the last person to change the data which is to be updated receives an express mail. The old data is flagged with an exclamation mark in the Solution Manager system landscape. You can compare the data and copy the current values.

Temporarily Unavailable Data

If data for instances in the System Landscape Directory (SLD) is temporarily unavailable, or a system is currently inaccessible by RFC, for example because an instance is in maintenance, the Solution Manager sets the Inactive flag in the Instances tab. When the instance becomes available again, the Solution Manager resets the flag. You can analyze this flag in the analyses.

If the instance is permanently unavailable, delete it manually.

You can choose whether you only want to delete instances manually, under Goto ® Set-Up System Landscape Maintenance ® Edit ® Expert Settings. If you have set-up Adaptive Computing, you must choose this option.
