The Administration Tool Monitor

Use

The administration tool Monitor provides a general tool for monitoring during normal ArchiveLink operation.

To navigate to the ArchiveLink Monitor, choose the following in the SAP Easy Access menu: ArchiveLink ® Administration ® ArchiveLink Monitoring (transaction OAM1).

Features

The administration tool Monitor allows you to monitor all the components necessary for storage (spool, queues, background processing and so on) from a central position. All steps are logged, including the errors. Storage requests with errors can be retriggered.

You can use the pushbuttons to display the table named on each button. The figures next to the pushbuttons state how many entries are currently in the table.

The figures are only current if you have activated the flag "Include in Refresh". To save the current selection, choose Settings ® Define Initial Position. The appropriate areas will then be immediately refreshed every time the monitor is called.

You can monitor storage of the following documents:

Print lists

For more information, see Monitoring Storage of Print Lists.

Outgoing documents

For more information, see Monitoring Storage of Outgoing Documents.

Incoming documents in bar code scenarios.

For more information, see Monitoring Storage with Bar Codes.

The following functions are also available on the screen:

Logging

Choose Entries to display a list of logging entries. Errors can occur when sending commands to content servers or when attempting to create link entries, for example. From the detail display for a logging entry, you can display the error message and delete the entry if necessary.

Connection Test

You can check whether the connection works for all content repositories created for ArchiveLink. (The system recognizes this by its two-digit technical name).

Choose Links to display a list of content repositories that are successfully connected.

After an error has been resolved, you are recommended to refresh the display on the Alert Monitor to reset the red or yellow traffic light symbol to green. To go to the CCMS Alert Monitor from the SAP Easy Access menu, choose Tools ® CCMS ® Controlling/Monitoring ® Alert Monitor (transaction RZ20).
