Start and Navigation 

 

To start the Runtime Monitor you must enter the transaction code SRTM in the command field or choose SAP Menu → Tools → ABAP Workbench → Test → Runtime Monitor on the SAP Easy Access screen.The system displays the initial screen of the Runtime Monitor with the navigation and work areas.

In the Navigation Area (on the left side of the screen), you can call the individual Runtime Monitor Functions by expanding the tree structure and double-clicking the desired function. Alternatively you can activate functions by choosing the Runtime Monitor from the menu bar.

The work area (on the right side of the screen) consists of the frames RTM Status and Messages. The first frame contains information about the number of active tests and the status of the data collection. Here, the names of the tests are listed that have already written log records to the database. The tests are arranged in a tree, sorted according to their individual packages. Buffered text data, which initially only exists in the main memory of the relevant server and has not yet been transferred to the database, is not contained in this overview.

The second frame is reserved for warnings and error messages. If messages exist, this area has a red background and a link to the function that caused each message. Messages are triggered by the following:

·         There are errors or warnings in the Log Book.

·         There are log records for tests that are no longer active and whose time stamp is older than one week.
