Changing the Frequency of Method
Execution 
Use
MTE classes are assigned to data suppliers that ensure that the relevant values of the monitoring attributes are reported in the monitoring architecture. These data suppliers are divided into two groups:
|
Type of Data Supplier |
Description |
|
active |
The data supplier automatically reports values that exceed threshold values for the monitored monitoring attributes to the monitoring architecture. |
|
passive |
The monitoring architecture regularly queries the data supplier and reports when threshold values are exceeded in the Alert Monitor. Passive data suppliers are called data collection methods. You can change the frequency of the queries. |
To obtain a quick overview of the frequency of the method execution for the nodes of a monitor, use the Technical View: Status Data Collector.
Procedure
To change the frequency of the method execution for an MTE class, follow the procedure below:
...
1. Choose CCMS ® Control/Monitoring ® Alert Monitor, or call transaction RZ20.
2. Start a monitor from the monitor sets.
3. Select a node in the Alert Monitor and choose Properties.
4.
Switch to change mode by
choosing Display « Change (
) and correct the value in the input field
Start the data collection method every on the Methods tab page.
5. Save your changes. Only if you have created your own properties variant, does a screen appear in which you can choose the variant in which the changes are made. By default, the active variant is preselected.
The maximum frequency of the data collection methods depends on whether the underlying program is an ABAP program or a C program. For ABAP programs, the maximum frequency is five minutes (you must therefore enter at least 300 seconds in the input field Start the data collection method every). For C programs, on the other hand, the maximum frequency is one minute (you must therefore enter at least 60 seconds in the input field Start the data collection method every).
The most
important examples of data collection methods that are based on C programs are

Agents.
