The SAP Management Console (SAP MC) perspective in the SAP NetWeaver Developer Studio enables you to monitor and perform basic administration tasks on SAP systems. You can manage local and remote systems from your development environment without the need to use additional tools. Using the SAP MC perspective you can:

  • Monitor and control (start, stop, or restart) the SAP system and its instances with a single tool.

  • Display SAP log and trace files, start profiles, instance parameters, the SAP system environment, Internet Communication Manager (ICM) queue statistics, and so on.

  • Display and control Java processes.

  • Monitor system alerts.

  • Display the list of all access points (ports and associated protocols) to an SAP system.

  • Display information about a lot of the AS Java internals like threads, sessions, caches, aliases, Enterprise JavaBeans (EJB) sessions, and remote objects.

  • Display Java Virtual Machine garbage collection and heap memory information for the application server.

  • Start external tools (such as Telnet and the Config Tool), if available, to manage an application server.

Procedure

Starting the SAP MC in the Developer Studio

To open the SAP Management Console perspective in the Developer Studio, choose   Window   Open Perspective   Other   SAP Management Console  . Before you can manage and monitor systems, you have to make them known to the Management Console by registering them.

Registering Systems and Instances
  1. Select the SAP system root node and, from its context menu, choose New SAP System. Alternatively use the Add a New SAP System button from the Management Console tool bar.

  2. In the Add New SAP System dialog box, enter the required data.

    Note Note

    The Domain field is optional and can be used to organize multiple systems into logical groups like development, test, and production. In the case of multiple systems with the same SID the Domain has to be used to distinguish these systems.

    End of the note.

    Note Note

    The short host name must be resolvable by DNS and there must be no proxy between client and server.

    End of the note.
  3. Choose OK.

Result

The SAP MC displays the SAP node, the instance nodes, and the relevant database nodes in a tree structure in the navigation pane.
