Monitoring Systems in the Topology Display

Use

All remote SAP systems known to the CCMS monitoring architecture are listed on the Monitored Remote SAP Systems tab page of the Topology Display along with their connection properties. This allows you to obtain a quick overview of which systems are monitored using the monitoring architecture.

For more information about how to start the topology display, see Calling the Display of the Technical Topology.

Features

The system displays the following columns as standard in Monitored Remote SAP Systems.

Column	Meaning
System	System ID of the monitored system
Read Destination Data	RFC destination of the monitored system that the central monitoring system uses to read data; use the CSMREG user for this purpose. The CSMREG user may only call certain function modules (see also: Monitoring Multiple SAP R/3 Systems: Define RFC Connections)
Destination Analysis	RFC Destination of the monitored system that the central monitoring system uses for analysis and auto reaction methods; use your own user name for this purpose (see also: Monitoring Multiple SAP R/3 Systems: Define RFC Connections).
Comm. Status	Communication status from the point of view of the local system; there are the following possible values: ONLINE OFFLINE SHUTDOWN COMM.FAIL If an RFC call fails (for example, in the case of the Test connection command, or the Logon to SAP system command), the system displays COMM.FAIL. After a successful RFC call, the system resets the communication status to ONLINE.
Changed by	User who last changed the communication status
Change Date, Change Time	Date and time at which the communication status was last changed.

You can also show the following columns by choosing the Change Layout button for the ALV Grid Control.

Column	Meaning
Version	Internal version of the CCMS monitoring architecture.
Comm. Prio.	Communication priority; there are two possible values: Standard: RFC communication stakes place over a defined ABAP interface. Agent Preferred: Preferred RFC communication takes place using a CCMS Agent.
Comm.Type	Communication type; depending on the definition of the RFC interface, one of the following values is displayed: SAP R/3 Connection TCP/IP Connection to Agent See: Destination Types

Activities

In addition to the display functions, the following commands are available to you as pushbuttons int eh ALV Grid Control:

Command	Explanation
Test Single Connection	When this command is started, the logon screen of the selected system is displayed. After you logon, the system displays a message with the connection status of the selected system. Choose Edit ® Connection Test to All Systems if you want to test the connections to all systems.
Create Remote System	With this pushbutton, you start the Create Entry for Remote Monitoring process (see Monitoring Multiple SAP R/3 Systems: Define RFC Connections).
Logon to SAP System	You can directly log on to systems for which an RFC destination is specified for analysis. When you do so, the system displays the Monitoring: Properties and Methods screen of transaction RZ21 for the relevant system as the initial screen.
Delete an entry	With this command, you can delete the entry for the monitoring of a remote system. In doing this, you do not delete the associated RFC destination. This command is only available in change mode, which you start by choosing the Display « Change pushbutton ().
Change Communication Status (Only in change mode)	If you no longer wish to monitor a remote system, choose OFFLINE. It remains in this status until you set it to ONLINE again. Do not set COMM.FAIL or SHUTDOWN manually.
Change RFC Destination (Only in change mode)	You can change the RFC destination (Read data and analysis) directly in the ALV Grid Control. Use an existing RFC destination to do this.
