Monitoring Sequences 

Purpose

Web Services Reliable Messaging (WSRM) ensures that message exchange between a service provider and a service consumer is completed without fault. Here messages are combined into sequences. The reliability of sequence transmission is adopted by the Web service runtime. Using the analysis tools of the sequence monitor, you can find and remove any errors that occur during transmission.

You use the sequence monitor in the following cases:

·        To monitor the sequence status.

·        To end or restart sequences with errors.

For more information, see About Sequences.

Prerequisites

·        You have started SAP NetWeaver Administrator and have chosen SOA Management → Monitoring → Sequence  Monitoring.

·        The user account you use is allowed to access the sequence monitor.
