Executing, Monitoring, and Administering Integration Processes

Use

The Business Process Engine (BPE) executes integration processes at runtime. Numerous functions are available for administration, monitoring, and troubleshooting.

Administrating the Business Process Engine

1. If it is not already running, start the Business Process Engine.

   See: Starting and Stopping the Business Process Engine

2. If you want an administrator to be informed when an integration process has an error status, set up error notifications.

   See: Setting Up Error Notifications for Administrators

3. To ensure that you do not run out of disk space, regularly delete any process data you no longer require.

   A report is available for this.

   See: Deleting Process Data No Longer Required

Monitoring Integration Processes and Troubleshooting

1. Use the CCMS Alert Monitor as the central point of entry for monitoring integration processes.

   In the CCMS Alert Monitor, you can see at a glance whether processing is running correctly or whether problems have occurred. If an error occurs, detailed descriptions about causes, remedies, and functions for troubleshooting are also available.

   You can also use the BPE Monitoring transactions.

   See: Monitoring Integration Processes

2. If errors occur, you can perform the following general checks:
   • Analyze the workflow log

     When an integration process is executed, the system creates a Workflow log. You can display the workflow transaction in the CCMS alert monitor and BPE monitoring transactions.

     See: Using the Workflow Log for Integration Processes

   • Check the runtime version of an integration process in the runtime cache
