How to schedule Technical Monitoring Work Modes automatically?

[former_member225608]

Hi all,

we wanted to make the SAP System Maintenance automatically, i mean: when we have an planned outage we wanted to schedule an event (for instance on crontab) and this event should put the jobs on hold, lock the users and create a work move in order to stop the monitoring in solution manager. The two first step are pretty easy to implement but we don't know how to schedule a work mode automatically (outside the IT Calendar or Work Mode Management tool).

We were thinking about an function module or a report which we could run after event, something like that.

Does anyone know if that is possible and how to do it?.

I have found the answer:

2466042 - Work Mode Management API documentation

Hello José Manuel,

You may try to use WMM APIs to do that. For more information, please download the attachments of this SAP Note: 2391688 - Workmode API Documentation.

If your Solution Manager 7.2 is on SP03-06, you may have to apply the following corrections: 2552317 - Issue Scheduling Work Mode for Technical Scenario using API

Thanks and best regards,
