SAPControl connector

Purpose

  • With the SAP control connector, you can collect information available through the SAP management console for ABAP and JAVA stack systems:
    • Running processes and services
    • Active components
    • Published server metrics and alerts
  • This connector uses the SAPControl web services available on each instance
  • One connector per monitored application server can be necessary
  • To create connector, there are two steps:
    1. Create an OS user and register it in Pro.Monitor
    2. Create and set connector parameters

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 the server at OS level, and associated with the appropriate user group in order to have the authorization to execute the webservices
  • See Note 927637 for more information about user settings on the application server
  • Look for the section describing the use of service/protectedwebmethods, make sure to allow the access of all Getter/Reader services :

  • 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
    • System number: The system number of the application server, this will define connection ports: 5XX13 or 5XX14 if secure mode is on.
    • User: The user profile to use for the connection
    • Force connection port: To use if the port of the service is different than 5XX13 or 5XX14
  • Press Save & Test to save the profile and check the connection is working
