Connecting a Technical System to SAP Solution Manager

SAP Solution Manager gives you central access to tools, methods, and preconfigured content that you can use to evaluate and implement your solutions.When your implementation is running, you can use SAP Solution Manager to manage, monitor, and update systems and business processes in your solution landscape, and also to set up and operate your own solution support.

Procedure

You connect a technical system to SAP Solution Manager by the following steps:

  1. On the technical systems of your landscape, data suppliers are implemented, for example, with transaction RZ70 for Application Server ABAP and with Visual Administrator for Application Server Java.
