ABAP connector

Purpose

  • With an ABAP connector, you can connect to a system via the message server or via one of the application server.
  • Only one ABAP connector is necessary to monitor a whole ABAP system. It will give access to all components that can be monitored by the ABAP monitors
  • To create connector, there are two steps:
    • Create a user profile in SAP and register it in Pro.Monitor
    • Create and set connector parameters
  • Pro.Monitor will use RFC protocol to connect to the ABAP stack
  • Note: It is mandatory to install SAP JCO library if you want to connect to an ABAP stack system

Create user profile

  • User profiles can be reached via Systems→SAP users
  • Create a new profile using the “Add” button
  • Once created, the user profile can be selected in the connector form
  • Note: A user profile is by default associated with a company . You can explicitly set a profile to be cross companies. The effect is that it will be selectable from connectors of any companies.
  • The corresponding user must be created in SAP as well with the appropriate authorizations
  • Use SU01 and PFCG transaction to do so. You can download the authorization profile in Admin→Admin configurartion→Upload/Download

Create connector

  • Select the system in the Systems tree and select “Add connector” in its contextual menu, choose ABAP type.
  • The default ABAP connector form will let you configure a connection to the message server.
    • Host: the hostname or IP address of the ABAP message server
    • Group: the logon group (can be set to SPACE by default)
    • Client: The client in which you want to connect (We suggest 000)
    • User: The user profile to use for the connection
    • MS Port: The port of the message server (Usually 36XX)

Press Save & Test to save the profile and check the connection is working
