Platform Monitoring and Diagnostics

Routine monitoring of the runtime, in addition to running system diagnostics allows you to gauge the health of your mobile enterprise and troubleshoot issues that may arise. Use SAP Control Center monitoring data, diagnostic results and runtime logs (system and domain) expressly for this purpose.

SAP Control Center-based monitoring reduces the burden of vital, but time-consuming routine tasks, by freeing IT and administration staff to focus on other initiatives, without reducing operational health of the platform.

When used in conjunction with regular analysis of runtime logs, administrators can:

Keep devices maintained and performing efficiently
Keep components available and reduce failure length
Identify and react to security or synchronization events before they impact your mobile infrastructure

System Monitoring Overview
(Not applicable to Online Data Proxy) The goal of monitoring is to provide a record of activities and performance statistics for various elements of the application. Monitoring is an ongoing administration task.
System Logs
SAP Mobile Platform uses multiple logs to record events that are useful for administrators who are monitoring the environment, and maintaining the health of components.
Domain Logs
The domain log enables an administrator to monitor application activities throughout the system. Detailed views of application activities are available by subsystem. The administrator can review activities in a specific subsystem log view, view correlated data in multiple subsystems, or view a unified log across all subsystems. The administrator must enable logging, and then use log filters to view data of interest.
Agentry Server Logs
Each Agentry application has its own Agentry Server instance that runs on the SAP Mobile Server node. Some Agentry Server instance logs can be configured through SAP Control Center. Agentry application message and event logs can be viewed through SAP Control Center.
SNMP Notifications
(Not applicable to Online Data Proxy) You can set up SAP Control Center X.X to include a Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) plug-in that sends notifications to the configured target when the state of an SAP Mobile Server changes (that is, from running to stopped, or from stopped to running).
Using MLMon to Track Synchronization Events
MLMon is an administration utility that enables you to monitor synchronization performance by capturing all the details of a synchronization event .
SAP Solution Manager
SAP Solution Manager provides tools that you can use to manage SAP Mobile Platform as part of your overall SAP landscape.
Workload Analysis with Wily Introscope Agent
Introscope is a third-party tool that can be integrated into your system landscape to quickly isolate and resolve performance issues wherever they arise in each stage of the application lifecycle. Administrators and support personnel can use performance data points for several key performance indicators (KPIs) to assess overall performance of the system.
