Use

Use this monitor to monitor the CCMS agents in your IT landscape. In addition to the RFC destination of the agent, the monitor provides the following information about each agent:

●     The host on which the agent was installed

●     The application server that the agent is checking (for agent SAPCCM4X)

●     How long the agent has been active or inactive, and when it was last checked

●     The availability of the agent

This graphic is explained in the accompanying text

Features

The following agents that are registered with the local system have at least one subtree of their own in this monitor:

●     CCMS agents (SAPCCMSR, SAPCM3X, SAPCCM4X)

●     CCMSPING (but only if the agent was registered with the option –push)

The name of the subtree is the same as the RFC destination of the agent and has the following structure:

<Type of agent>.<Name of host system>.<System number of monitored instance>

Each of these subtrees consists of the following monitoring tree elements (MTEs):
