 Monitoring the Status of AS Java Using the CCMSLocate this document in the navigation structure

Use

You can monitor the status data of the AS Java from a central SAP monitoring system using the CCMS monitoring architecture. The data collected by the JMX monitors is sent to the central monitoring system using the CCMS connector and the CCMS agent SAPCCMSR. You can display the collected data in the Alert Monitor (transaction RZ20). If errors occur, alerts are triggered.

If you have assigned an auto-reaction method to the alerts, an automatism can take effect (such as notification if an error occurs).

Prerequisites

The AS Java must be registered in the central monitoring system. For information about this, see Registering SAP NetWeaver Components and Hosts in CEN .

Integration

The figure below shows the route for monitoring data from the JMX monitor for the AS Java to the SAP CCMS.

When the AS Java starts, it creates the JMX monitors and provides them with data during its runtime. The monitoring data of the JMX monitors is mapped in CCMS. To do this, the CCMS Connector forwards the monitoring data from the AS Java to the shared memory segment of the SAPCCMSR agent with the -J2EE option. The agent is part of the CCMS Monitoring Infrastructure. You must run the agent on every host on which an AS Java monitored by the CCMS is running. The agent is required even if the AS Java is running on the same host as the monitoring SAP system.

You can display the Java monitoring data in the central monitoring system using the CCMS Alert Monitor. To do this, open the alert monitor (transaction RZ20), and select SAP J2EE Monitor Templates. The status data is displayed in the following monitor views:

  • The monitor view Engines displays status data for the kernel, services, performance, and system
  • The monitor view Applications displays application data
    Note

    For information about the values transferred by the AS Java, see Monitored Data .

Example

The figure below shows an example of Java status monitors in the Engines monitor view of the CCMS:

Error! Objects cannot be created from editing field codes.

In the AS Java's status monitors, you can use the colors to tell at a glance where warnings (yellow) and errors (red) have occurred. If you open the tree at the corresponding points, you can learn more about the cause.

In the figure, License Manager is highlighted in yellow. This means that a warning has occurred. If you open the tree at this point, you can see that your license expires in 24 days. Under Services, Deploy is highlighted in yellow. This means that the deployment of at least one application has taken so long that a yellow alert was triggered. If you open the tree at this point, you can see the application to which this refers. You should check whether the deployment ran correctly, and whether the application is working correctly. You can use the Visual Administrator to check whether the deployment ran successfully. If the application has a check mark in the Deploy service under Application, it was started. The JARM data is displayed under Performance, and the operating system data under System.

The system displays monitoring data for Java applications that have implemented monitoring functions in the Applicationsmonitoring view:

For more information about the concept of the CCMS monitoring architecture and the operation of the CCMS Alert Monitor, see Alert Monitor . For information about the values transferred by the AS Java, see Monitored Data .

You can set the threshold values for the status monitors in the SAP NetWeaver Administrator or using the Alert Monitor of the central monitoring system (CEN). To be able to change the status monitors from the CCMS alert monitor, you require a corresponding RFC connection between the AS Java and the CCMS. For more information, see the section Connecting the AS Java to the CCMS .
