Switching Levels of Detail in Views

Use

The alert monitor offers three levels of detail in the Current status and Open alerts views. These are as follows:

Overview: Displays only the monitoring tree elements (MTEs) that are essential for monitoring the status of the system. Use this view for routine monitoring of the system during normal operation.

Analysis: This view adds MTEs that are intended for problem analysis or performance tuning to the display. Switch to this display or to the Expert analysis view if you need to examine a problem or wish to analyze the system in detail.

Expert analysis: This view adds SAP-internal MTEs. These MTEs are probably useful only when you are working with an SAP consultant or with the SAP hotline or EarlyWatch service. Specialist knowledge may be required to interpret the expert analysis MTEs.

The levels of detail build upon one another. That is, Analysis and Expert analysis simply add more MTEs to the Overview level of detail.

The alert monitor always shows MTEs for which there are alerts, regardless of the level of detail to which the MTE is assigned. Example: an MTE with a current alert is shown in the Current status overview even if the MTE is assigned to the Expert analysis level of detail.
