Monitoring Availability of the ECM Integration Layer (Java)Locate this document in the navigation structure

Use

To ensure that access to the ECM stores using the ECM integration layer is functioning correctly, you can use the Generic Request and Message Generator to display information about the availability of the ECM integration layer and the connectors to content stores.

Templates for Availability Monitoring Scenarios

SAP ships templates for availability monitoring in the XML scenario template (customizing file) ECM_Heartbeat_Java Template.xml . The template file contains (successive) templates for the following monitoring scenarios:

  • ECM_J_RT

    Displays the level of availability and the status of the ECM integration layer (with the number of connected connectors).

  • ECM_J_CO

    Displays the level of availability of the connected connectors with access or no access to the content store.

    If an error occurs, you must check whether the connector is configured correctly and whether the store is available.

To set up availability monitoring of the ECM integration layer, load the scenarios from the template file to the SAP system, configure system access for each scenario, then create a monitor for availability monitoring.

Prerequisites

You have familiarized yourself with the purpose and use of the Generic Request and Message Generator (transaction GRMG).

Procedure

1. Download XML Scenario Template (Customizing File)

  1. In the Customer Service System (CSS), open Note 1309932 Information published on SAP site.

  2. Choose Note Administration .

  3. Select the Attachments tab page.

  4. Download the file ECMHeartbeatJAVA.zip .

  5. Extract the file ECM_Heartbeat_Java Template.xml to your file system.

2. Upload Monitoring Scenarios to SAP System

  1. Call transaction GRMG in the SAP system.

  2. Choose Start of the navigation path Upload/Download Next navigation step Upload a scenario End of the navigation path.

  3. Select the scenario template file ECM_Heartbeat_Java Template.xml in your file system.

  4. Confirm the message GRMG Customizing successfully uploaded .

    The system puts both scenarios ECM_J_RT and ECM_J_CO in the list of GRMG Availability Monitoring Scenarios .

3. Configure and Start Monitoring Scenarios in SAP System

  1. In transaction GRMG, perform the following steps for each of the scenarios ECM_J_RT and ECM_J_CO:

    1. Select the scenario and choose Start of the navigation path Edit/Delete Next navigation step Edit a scenario End of the navigation path.

    2. In the default URL, overwrite host and port with the host name and the port of the SAP system whose ECM integration layer you are using.

    3. In the Editable Properties list, enter the logon data as follows:

      • Under LOGON_USER , enter the logon user

      • Under LOGON_PASSWORD , enter the password of the logon user

  2. Select the scenarios ECM_J_RT and ECM_J_CO, and choose Start of the navigation path Start/Stop Next navigation step Start scenarios End of the navigation path.

4. Generate and Start Monitor for Monitoring Scenarios

  1. Call transaction RZ20 (CCMS Monitor Sets) in the SAP system.

  2. Choose Start of the navigation path Extras Next navigation step Activate maintenance function End of the navigation path.

  3. If you want to add the monitor of an existing monitor set, skip this step. If you want to create a new monitor set, proceed as follows:

    1. Select the node My favorites and choose Start of the navigation path Monitor (set) Next navigation step Create End of the navigation path.

    2. Enter the name of the monitor set, for example ECMI Java Monitor Set .

      Note

      Create the monitor set and the monitor outside the protected SAP namespace.

    3. Set the required attributes and confirm your entries.

      The system puts the new monitor set in your worklist.

  4. To generate the monitor, proceed as follows:

    1. Select the monitor set in your worklist.

    2. Choose Start of the navigation path Monitor (set) Next navigation step Create End of the navigation path.

    3. Expand the entries for the system in which the monitoring scenarios are to run.

    4. Select the entries ECM Java Connector Heartbeat and ECM Java Runtime Heartbeat .

    5. Choose Start of the navigation path Monitor Definition Next navigation step Generate Monitor End of the navigation path.

    6. Enter the name of the monitor (for example, ECMI Java Monitor ) and confirm the entry.

      The system generates and starts the new monitor. You can see the availability and status entries for the ECM integration layer and its connection to the connected stores.

      Note

      You can start the monitor from the monitor set at any time using transaction RZ20.

5. Stop Monitoring Scenarios

  1. Call transaction GRMG in the SAP system.

  2. In the list of GRMG Availability Monitoring Scenarios , select both scenarios ECM_J_RT and ECM_J_CO.

  3. Choose Start of the navigation path Start/Stop Next navigation step Disable execution End of the navigation path.

    To restart the scenarios, you must reenable their execution in the Start/Stop menu.
