Using Monitoring

Objective

After completing this lesson, you will be able to use the monitoring

Monitor Messages Related to Cloud Integration Content

Use SAP NetWeaver Administrator or SAP Process Integration Tools to monitor the Integration Gateway component and messages related to the deployment of cloud integration content.

To use the monitoring, you need the role NWA_READONLY.

Use the monitoring tab to do the following:

Get an overview of the messages and manage individual messages on the Message Monitoring page for the deployed cloud integration content.
Check the status of the Integration Gateway component on the Component Monitoring page.

Cloud Integration Content Message Monitoring

Use message monitoring to track the status of messages, find errors that have occurred, and determine the cause of errors pertaining to the deployment of cloud integration content.

Procedure

Launch the Message Monitor:
- If you want to monitor using SAP NetWeaver Administrator go to: http://[host]:[port]/nwa and navigate to SOA → Monitoring → Message Monitor → Cloud Integration Content.
- If you want to monitor using Process Integration tools, go to: http://[host]:[port]/pimon and navigate to Monitoring → Adapter Engine → Message Monitor → Cloud Integration Content.
On the Cloud Integration Content tab, you have several search options. Select a status and time period and integration flow name or search for the Message Guid, Correlation ID.or Application ID. For both options you have to select the Data Source (such as Database, Archive or All).
Messages currently belonging to the status group and time period you have selected are displayed for different integration flows (if you have not specified an integration flow) or for a particular integration flow (if specified).
Under Message List, select a message to view its details in the Message Details section.
If you select Message Details, you can display the Message Processing Log (MPL), the MPL attachments and the message attachments. You can also see traces if the log level Trace was active during message processing

Component Monitor

To check whether the cloud integration content runtime component works properly, it has been included in the component monitor. From the monitoring home page, you can navigate to the component monitor.

In the component monitor, select the component Integration Gateway. This is actually the technical name of the cloud integration content runtime component. From here you can carry out a ping or run the self test. A couple of self tests are carried out such as checking the registration status, checking the various background jobs, checking the status of the deployed integration content, etc. See also SAP note 2515627.

To start the Component Monitor, follow the below procedure:

Procedure

Launch the Component Monitor:
- If you want to monitor using SAP NetWeaver Administrator go to: http://[host]:[port]/nwa and navigate to SOA → Monitoring → Component Monitor.
- If you want to monitor using Process Integration tools, go to: http://[host]:[port]/pimon and navigate to Monitoring → Common → Component Monitor.
In the Available Components table, select theIntegration Gateway component row.
Self-test details of the Integration Gateway component display.
To repeat the ping status query, select the Integration Gateway component row and choose Repeat Ping.
Ping test results display in the Available Components table, in the Availability column.
To repeat the component self-test, select the Integration Gateway component row and choose Repeat Self-Test.

DataStore Viewer

The DataStore Viewer displays the content of the selected transient data stores available in the SAP PI server.

A transient data store temporarily stores messages for later processing. An integration flow can write messages to a transient data store or read messages from it. Variables used by integration flows are also stored in the DataStore.

To start the DataStore Viewer, follow the below procedure:

Procedure

Go to http://[host]:[port]/nwa and navigate to SOA → Monitoring → DataStore Viewer. All the available transient data stores are listed in the Data Store Oveview table.
The Details table displays the data store properties. Depending on the role assigned, you have the option to delete and entry. Select the entry to be deleted and click Delete Entry.
Click Download Payload to download an entry.

The table provides details on actions that are allowed for different roles in Data Store viewer:

Action	Roles
Accessing the data store viewer	SAP_XI_CONFIGURATOR, SAP_XI_ADMINISTRATOR
Deleting a data store entry	SAP_XI_ADMINISTRATOR
Downloading payload of a data store entry	SAP_XI_ADMINISTRATOR

Deploy and Test Cloud Integration Content

Business Scenario

You want to run Cloud Integration Content on your SAP PO 7.5 system. Therefor you have to load and to deploy this Cloud Integration Content into you SAP PO 7.5 system.

Exercise Information

Note

In this exercise, when the values include ##, replace the character with a two-digit number (01–30).

Exercise Options

You can perform this exercise in two ways:

Live Environment: choose Start Exercise, and from the entry page choose Open PDF Document. Follow the steps described in this pdf in your own system landscape.
Simulation: choose Start Exercise, and from the entry page choose Start Tutorial. Watch the step-by-step instructions within the simulation.

Note

We recommend running the simulation first.

Task 1: Load and Deploy Cloud Integration Content

Open Cloud Integration Content on you NWK system. Load and Deploy BIT500_CPI_TEST.

Steps

Load Cloud Integration Content BIT500_CPI_##.
1. Open your group share folder group##, which was already mounted in Exercise 1
2. Open folder BIT500. There you will find the file BIT500_CPI_TEST.zip
3. Open the URL in a browser of your choice:http://nwktdc00.wdf.sap.corp:50000/dir/start/index.jsp.
4. Choose Cloud Integration Content.
5. If required, sign in with your BIT500-## user and your given password.
6. The Cloud Integration Content Management Cockpit window appears.
7. Choose Deploy.
8. In the Deploy Integration Content window, select File System.
9. Choose the Browse button and navigate to group## → BIT500.
10. Select BIT500_CPI_## and choose Open.
11. In the Deploy Integration Content window, set the flag Package Name and enter BIT500_CPI_## as package name.
12. Choose Deploy.
  Note
  It can happen, that a window opens showing you the error message: "Deployment not started". Close this window. The deployment will work anyway.
Test your iFlow BIT500_CPI_##
1. On the Cloud Integration Content Management Cockpit choose END POINTS.
2. In the URL column, you will find the endpoint of your scenario.
3. Open Chrome Browser and enter the URL of the NWK system + the endpoint to call your iFlow. For instance: http://nwktdc00.wdf.sap.corp:50000/igwhttp/BIT500_CPI_##.
4. As result, you will get the response: It works.
Monitor your iFlow BIT500_CPI_##
1. In the Integration Content tab, hover your mouse over your iFlow, for example: BIT500_CPI_##.
2. Choose View MPL from the context menu.
3. The Message Monitor screen appears.
4. Choose Go to see Message Processing Log of your iFlow.
