Measures reported by SapMonPerfTest
A monitoring object represents a component of the IT environment that is to be monitored, such as the CPU of a server, the dialog system, or background processing. Monitoring attributes are values, statuses, or texts that are reported to this object, such as the CPU utilization, or the average response time in the dialog system. A monitoring attribute can be assigned an alert. The selection of the monitoring objects is performed using the data suppliers that exist for all areas of system management.
Monitoring objects and their attributes are displayed in the alert monitoring tree as individual nodes in a hierarchical tree. If the data reported to the monitoring architecture exceeds or falls below the defined alert threshold values, an alert is triggered in the corresponding monitoring tree element.
There are five different types of monitoring attributes:
- Performance attribute
- Status attribute
- Heartbeat attribute
- Log attribute
- Text attribute
Monitoring attributes are combined into attribute groups. An attribute group contains the threshold values that have common associated monitoring attributes.
Reliable values for threshold values and the severity of alerts are predefined for all monitoring attributes.
The color of nodes or MTEs (monitoring tree elements) mean:
Green: The component is running normally. All is OK. Yellow: A warning message has been issued - a “yellow alert”. Red: A problem or critical status message has been issued - a “red alert”. Gray: No data available for this node. (Check in the CCMS in the Self-monitoring monitor why the Collection tool is not available for this node).
The Performance attribute collects and averages performance values that have been reported to the monitoring architecture. If these values violate the set threshold values, an alert is generated.
This test reports the numerical statistics regarding the Performance attributes of this monitor in this monitor set.
The measures made by this test are as follows:

A monitoring tree depicts the hierarchy of monitoring objects within a monitor and the various attributes exposed by the monitoring objects. The monitoring tree depicted by the detailed diagnosis page of this measure shows only the Performance attributes within the monitoring objects. Within the tree, the Performance attributes are indicated in a tabular format. The table contains an entry for each Performance attribute exposed by the monitoring object with details such as the Attribute Name, Current Value of the attribute (with units), Importance and the actual Timestamp of the Current Value shown. The Importance value is a combination of the status and severity of the most significant active alert associated with this Performance attribute. The Status of this performance attribute is represented using the unique color code as mentioned above. The severity of a given status is indicated by a number between 0 and 255, with higher severity values being more important than the lower ones.
The monitoring tree is identical to the alert monitoring tree in SAP CCMS Alert Monitor and its individual nodes can be expanded and contracted. |
