CCMS Alert Monitor

Use

The Computing Center Management System ( CCMS) has a special alert monitor for Business Workflow.

You use this alert to centrally monitor Business Workflow and to identify different categories of system errors and application errors in the involved components.

The CCMS Alert Monitor has the following advantages:

• Automated, central monitoring that only requires you to carry out administration tasks when an alert occurs

• Proactive monitoring by means of alerts that are triggered as soon as a particular threshold value is not reached, or is exceeded.

• Support for problem solving through predefined analysis functions, which you can use to remove the cause of an alert in a particular component.

Features

Usually, an alert has one analysis method, which is specifically designed for a particular error situation. The analysis method starts a tool that displays the possible causes of the error, or which resolves the error automatically.

Activities

To start the CCMS Alert Monitor for Business Workflow, call transaction CCMS Monitoring (RZ20).

Under SAP Business Workflow you will find all the alerts for Business Workflow and Business Process Engine (BPE) in cross component Business Process Management (BPM) as part of Exchange Infrastructure (XI).

To display and analyze open alerts, navigate to the Open alerts view.

To execute the analysis method, double click an open alert or call the context and choose Start Analysis Method.

Once you have analyzed an alert and taken any necessary action, choose Complete alerts to remove it from the open alerts display.
