Use

You can copy the values contained in a monitoring properties variant to another variant. You can also select single properties for certain monitoring tree elements (MTEs) or MTE classes in a properties variant and then copy them to a different properites variant.

You do not need to define specific values for each individual MTE class in your properties variant. If you do not specify a value for an MTE class, the SAP R/3 System automatically uses the values predefined by the customer (properties variant Q ) or the values of the SAP DEFAULT variant.

Caution

Do not copy the properties variant SAP DEFAULT, as you would prevent the updating of the values during the import of a new SAP DEFAULT variant.
