Hi Florencia,

You have at least three different options to do this.

1. Try using Monitoring application in CMC which is a out of box solution. Using this you can monitor specific server and its metrics using probes and watches. You can refer below blogs for more details

SAP BusinessObjects 4.0 Monitoring Configuration - Part(1)

SAP BusinessObjects 4.0 Monitoring Configuration - Part(2)

2. You have the provision to integrate 3rd party monitoring solutions such as SAP Solution manager or IBM Tivoli. These tools will be making use of the BusinessObjects server process IDs to get the metrics of each server.

     To understand the individual executables for each BusinessObjects server refer this

       BusinessObjects Servers monitoring and their executables path

3. Using custom SDK code to develop your required monitoring screen

Thanks Mani,

It was really helpful your post. We're going for the seconf option.

Do you have any technical document or ifromation regarding how to integrate Monitoring wih IBM Tivoli?

Because in the links that information is missing.

Thanks again!

Hi Florencia,

I dont have a concrete document for Monitoring integration with Tivoli for version 4.0 . But I would suggest you to have a look at here for BO 3.x version.
