Registering SAP NetWeaver Components and Hosts in CEN

Use

By default, the Alert Monitor monitors the system in which you start it. However, you can centrally monitor multiple systems with a single Alert Monitor. To do this, you make one system your central monitoring system (CEN).

To centrally monitor remote systems or hosts, you need to register the corresponding component in CEN. This procedure is described here.

Prerequisites

  • There is a CSMREG user in CEN.

  • There is also a CSMREG user on the ABAP or double-stack system to be monitored.

  • The Java or TREX systems to be monitored have a release status of at least SAP NetWeaver 7.1.

Procedure

  1. To monitor an additional system or host, call transaction RZ21.

  2. Choose Start of the navigation pathTechnical Infrastructure Next navigation step Configure Central System Next navigation step Create Remote Monitoring EntryEnd of the navigation path.

  3. Choose which component type you want to register in CEN.

  4. In the group box CSMREG User of the Central System, enter the password for the CSMREG user in CEN.
