You can use Interactive Reporting to centrally display the development of the most important monitoring data over time, to identify potential problems early, and to obtain an overview of the load, usage, availability, and performance of your ABAP systems, among other things.

The reports contain various periods, from the current day to the previous year, so you can see both the current, and the long-term development of the performance values. The values for each period are automatically displayed in the appropriate level of detail (see Using Interactive Reporting).

The available reports for ABAP systems are divided into the following four topic areas:

  • Availability

    These report contain information about the availability of the selected system, and also display information about planned downtimes.

  • Performance

    These reports contain information about the response times of the selected system.

  • Exceptions

    These reports contain information about the number of exceptions that occurred in the selected system.

  • Capacity

    These reports contain information about the usage of the available capacity of the selected system. These reports therefore give you information about the capacity that is still free, for example, in the usage of different memory, or of the available CPUs.

  • Usage

    These reports contain information about the usage of the selected system. You can find out, for example, how systems are used — both in terms of scope and topic areas.

Interactive Reports for ABAP Systems - Usage

The specified reports have, for the most part, the following common properties (the reports in the Usage area are an exception):

  • The reports each have an Overview display and a Details display, and you can switch between these displays by choosing the button of the same name. In the detail display, you have more options for displaying specific metrics in the report.

  • When you call a report, the development of the displayed metric is displayed for the relevant system, that is, you see a mean value for all instances of the system. However, in the overview display, you can also display only specific instances, by selecting the desired instances in the Instances area and choosing the Filter button. In the detail display, you can also display the metrics as a mean value across all instances or individually for all instances. You can do this by choosing the buttons Display Average for All Instances or Display Single Values for Instances.

  • In the overview view, you can also display the threshold values in many reports, to have reference values for the displayed metrics.
