Function documentation Content Server and Cache Server Monitoring  Locate the document in its SAP Library structure

Use

The HTTP Content Server is monitored automatically as part of the Computer Center Management System (CCMS). For further information on the CCMS, see Monitoring in the CCMS and Alert Monitor.

All repositories defined in Customizing are monitored, along with their associated content servers. A monitoring function for Web servers and cache servers recognized by Customizing is also provided.

Note

The Knowledge Provider Web Server is only used within the framework of SAP Knowledge Warehouse. It is used for displaying content on the client. For example, a client wants to display a specific instance of a logical document. To do so, it sends the information on the logical document and its attributes (for example, logon language, release) via RFC to an SAP system. The SAP system returns the corresponding physical document via RFC to the client, which then displays it using the Knowledge Provider Web Server.

To go from the CCMS (transaction RZ20) to the monitoring screen for the Content Server and Cache Server, choose SAP CCMS Monitors for Optional Components. Then choose the monitor for Knowledge Provider.
Alternatively, call up the transaction SCMSMO directly.

Features

You can call up the following information in the monitoring function:

Prerequisite: the repositories are defined in Customizing (see OAC0).

Prerequisite: the Cache Servers are defined in Customizing (see SCMSCA).

Prerequisite: Customizing recognizes the Web servers. The Web servers are stored either with the classes (see Web Servers for Document Classes) or with the document spaces (see Web Servers for Document Spaces).

This graphic is explained in the accompanying text

Monitoring has the following functions:

This function provides information on, for example, which SAP system the Web server is connected to, which message server is being used, details of the last access attempt on the server, and so on.

You can switch between Open Alerts and Current Status modes. If you are in Open Alerts mode, you can display and complete (that is, process) alerts.

If you are in Current Status mode, you can also go directly from the monitoring function for Content and Cache Servers to the administration function for Content and Cache Servers (see Administration). To do so, double-click on the name of the required server or repository.

Note

Information on monitoring in the CCMS is available in English.
