Prerequisites

An SAP Solution Manager system is required. You enable the monitoring of remote systems by using the Database Performance Warehouse configuration wizard.

Features

In the Performance Warehouse, all relevant performance indicators that are collected by the DBA Cockpit are stored in an SAP Business Intelligence (BI) system of an SAP Solution Manager system. For more information about configuring the Database Performance Warehouse, see the SAP Solution Manager documentation.

Based on this architecture, the DBA Cockpit uses SAP BI technology to provide reports for performance analysis, which you can customize according to your needs. All collected data has a time dimension, so you can analyze the database performance for any point in time or over a specified time frame.

Almost all reports are displayed as a chart to visualize the key performance indicators (KPIs). In addition, there is also a detailed table view. To navigate within these reports, you can use the SAP BI drilldown feature. Violations to performance thresholds are highlighted based on predefined SAP BI exceptions to make you immediately aware of performance issues.

By default, the Performance Warehouse is delivered with predefined content that you can use to create your own reports according to your needs.
