Installation Example: SAPCCMSR on a Windows NT System

Description

You want to monitor an instance using a CCMS agent:

Central Monitoring System	Host Name: hs011	System ID: 31
	System Name: CEN

User (Registration)	Entered in the System: CEN	User ID: ADMIN
	Password: PASSWD

User (Receipt of Alert Info)	Entered in the System: CEN	User ID: READUSER
	Password: PASS

The monitored system is not an SAP instance. You should therefore use the SAPCCMSR agent.

Procedure

Create the \\host\saploc\prfclog\sapccmsr working directory of the agent. In this case, this is the local directory:

D:\saploc\prfclog\sapccmsr

Release the directory as a Share.

Copy the agent using binary File Transfer Protocol (FTP) from SAPSERV<X> from the directory

/general/misc/ccms-ma/ccms-agents/sapccmsr/ntintel/sapccmsr.sar

to the working directory that you have just created. As this system is not an SAP instance, you should also copy the uncompressing program SAPCAR from SAPSERV<x>, in accordance with SAP Note 212876. You can find this in the directory:

/general/R3server/patches/rel46C/NT/I386

Uncompress the agent from the command line with the SAPCAR program, using the following command:

sapcar –xvf sapccmsr.sar

Now create the configuration file in the working directory of the agent (D:\saploc\prfclog\sapccmsr). When doing so, you must adjust the parameters to your local installation.

Contents of the CSMCONF file:

CEN_CONFIG
    CEN_SYSID=CEN
.

CEN_ADMIN_USER
    CEN_ADMIN_CLIENT=000
    CEN_ADMIN_USERID=ADMIN
    CEN_ADMIN_LANG=en
    CEN_ADMIN_LOADBALANCING=n
    CEN_ADMIN_ASHOST=hs0011
    CEN_ADMIN_SYSNR=31
    CEN_ADMIN_TRACE=0
    CEN_ADMIN_MSHOST=hs0011
    CEN_ADMIN_R3NAME=CEN
    CEN_ADMIN_PASSWORD=PASSWD
.

CEN_GATEWAY
    CEN_GATEWAY_HOST=hs0011
    CEN_GATEWAY_SYSNR=31
    CEN_GATEWAY_TRACE=0
.

CEN_CSMREG_USER
    CEN_CSMREG_CLIENT=000
    CEN_CSMREG_USERID=READUSER
    CEN_CSMREG_LANG=en
    CEN_CSMREG_LOADBALANCING=y
    CEN_CSMREG_TRACE=0
    CEN_CSMREG_MSHOST=hs0011
    CEN_CSMREG_R3NAME=CEN
    CEN_CSMREG_GROUP=PUBLIC
    CEN_CSMREG_PASSWORD=PASS
.

Now perform the registration of the agent. During this, an RFC connection to the agent (which is an RFC server) is automatically created in the CEN system. The syntax is:

sapccmsr –R -f csmconf

The system has now modified the CSMCONF file so that it no longer contains a password.

Note

If you perform the registration without the option -f <filename>, the system will prompt you for the required data in dialog mode. In this case, you do not need to create the CSMCONF file.

The SAPCCMSR CCMS agent is now automatically entered as a service under Windows NT and activated. You can now access the data collected by the CCMS agents in transaction RZ20 in the CEN system.
