App: A Metric for Several Managed Objects

To see the metrics and events determined by the E2E Monitoring and Alerting Infrastructure (MAI), see the Technical Monitoring Dashboard. There is an app for this dashboard which displays a metric or event, such as the availability of your most important ABAP systems, for managed objects.

Note Note

As the display and configuration of metrics and events are nearly identical in this dashboard, they are both referred to as elements here, where information applies to both metrics and events.

End of the note.

All elements delivered by SAP which you can display in this app are from System Monitoring, and are one of the following types of managed objects:

Technical system
Technical instance
Host
Database

Note Note

You can extend the set of selectable elements (see Extend Set of Selectable Metrics) beyond System Monitoring.

End of the note.

You can display the values of between one selected element and nine managed objects, in the app. Make the selection in the configuration app (see Configure App: A Metric for Several Managed Objects).

The app displays the name and technical name of the element. You can see its description with the blue icon with the white i.

The selected managed objects are displayed in a table. The following information is displayed:

Column	Meaning
Managed Object	Managed Object Name
Rating/Value	For a metric, its value and status, as provided by MAI, are displayed. Depending on the threshold settings of the metric, this can be a mean value or a rating. You can display this setting in the SAP Solution Manager Configuration (transaction `SOLMAN_SETUP`), under Technical Monitoring System Monitoring Template Management , by selecting a template and, in the Metrics tab, choosing the Threshold Values tab. For an event, only the status (red, yellow or green) and the text Rating Only are displayed, because an event has no value.
