Portal monitoring and other non-sap systems monitoring

[Former Member]

Hi,

We are investigating as to how we can replace our other monitoring tools with Solution Manager. How would we monitor a URL (eg Portal site) ? Can solman also monitor non-sap processes/services?

thanks,

Thank you for your help and links to the docs.

My question was how to monitor/configure URL/Portal availabiltity. GRMG checks for the j2ee process availabilty. But is there a monitor in solman ccms (as in Sitescope, netiq, mom etc) that could tell you if a web site url is down by pinging the url on a regular basis?

Without sap installed on a managed server, can solman/ccms still collect info/alert on os, hardware and other processes or do we need sap to have saposcol, ccmsping, ccms* processes running?

CCMSPing will be needed, to configure CCMS monitoring, along with SAPCCMSR, as this is needed for Java stack.

With this you can configure GRMG monitoring too.

Thank you.

My question was how to monitor URL. Note that Sitescope, netiq, mom and other monitoring tools could tell you if a web site url is down by pinging the url on a regular basis. Can ccmsping do this? ccmsping only pings if the server is available. If i specify the url, can grmg monitor if the websied (url) is unavaiable?
