Data Archiving Monitor
Use
You can use the data archiving monitor to monitor and analyze the write and delete phases of the data archiving process.
The information sent to the monitor, if any, depends on where and how the job was started:
If the write or delete was started in test mode, no information is sent.
Integration
The data archiving monitor is integrated in the alert monitor (transaction RZ20) and can be called by choosing SAP CCMS Monitor Templates → Data Archiving (transaction SAR_SHOW_MONITOR). You can also monitor data archiving in the database monitor under SAP CCMS Monitor Templates → Database → DataArchiving.

Activities
Every write and delete program based on the Archive Development Kit (ADK) generates a monitoring node (corresponding to the name of the archiving object) and the monitoring attributes Checkpoints and Statistics when first run.
The monitoring attribute Checkpoints collects important status messages and error messages (alerts). Once alerts are completed and there is no session that has errors or is incomplete for this archiving object (according to archive management), the monitoring attribute Checkpoints is automatically deleted along with all messages and alerts.
The monitoring attribute Statistics collects statistics about recently successfully completed write and delete phases. The monitoring attribute Statistics, in contrast to the monitoring attribute Checkpoints, is not deleted.
The following figure illustrates the timeline for a typical archiving session, including the messages and alerts for the monitoring attributes Checkpoints and Statistics displayed in the alert monitor.
The numbered messages and alerts provide you with the following information; the texts shown are not the exact messages; the actual messages provide you with more details:
