Backlog Tab Page

This tab page shows an overview of all sender and receiver services that are defined for the PCK in the CPA cache.

The number of messages currently still in processing (backlog) is displayed in detail for each service. The number is not node-specific and represents the sum of messages across all nodes.

You can select a service for monitoring by the SAP NetWeaver Administrator. In addition to the selected services, this also always displays the total sum of messages for all services.

Note

For performance reasons, only select particular services for monitoring, not all services.

To make the data visible in SAP NetWeaver Administrator, proceed as described in Modifying the State of a Set of Monitors. In the monitoring tree, select the nodes Server ® Services ® Adapter Framework ® Messaging System.

To display the monitored services, choose Messaging System ® Receiver Services or Messaging System ® Sender Services.

Four message categories are displayed:

      EOIO Backlog:

Held messages (status HOLD)

      Processing Backlog (with errors):

Waiting messages (status WAIT)

      Processing Backlog (without errors):

Messages to be delivered (status TBDL) and messages that have been delivered (status DLNG)

      Error Backlog:

Messages with system errors (status NDLV)

You can connect the monitor to the SAP Computing Center Management System (CCMS). There, you can define corresponding threshold values to generate alerts for individual backlog categories and services.
