Assigning Methods to MTE Classes and Monitoring Properties Variants 

Use

Collection methods and analysis methods are automatically assigned to MTE classes at system installation by SAP's data supplier.

You will only need to assign a method or methods to an MTE class if you write your own data supplier program. You will also need to assign a method to an MTE class if you want to set up an auto-reaction method or to change the analysis method that was specifed by SAP.

Do not change the assignment of collection methods. This interferes with the correct running of the data supplier program.

From Release 4.6A, methods that have been assigned to MTE classes can also be assigned to monitoring properties variants. The advantage of this is that you can execute different methods in different monitoring properties variants, providing you with greater flexibility in monitoring your R/3 System.

Procedure

  1. Choose CCMS ® Configuration ® Alert monitor. Alternatively, call Transaction RZ21.
  2. Choose Methods assigned to MTE classes and choose Display overview.
  3. Select an MTE class and then choose Edit data
  4. Then choose Display « Change and then assign the method that you require to the MTE class. You can also specify the monitoring properties variant name for which the method assignment should be used.

You do not have to assign a method to each MTE class in the monitoring architecture. Where you have not specifed a method for an MTE class, by default the system uses the method that is assigned to the higher-level MTE.
