RCS Managed system setup

[Former Member]

Hi,

Do we need to re run managed system setup wizard, each time system stack or EHP is updated ? or even when solman stack is updated ?

Reason: We recently updated solman to SPS27 after which I dont see any data collection happening specially for User Load for ABAP systems

and none for java

BR,

Shyam

Hello,

Run transaction solman_setup and check in the OVERVIEW what are the Open Activities listed in Basic and Initial Configuration.

All activities there must be redone, grey, red or green.

In these tasks there will be the Diagnostics Configuration. This step includes setting the Maintenance Mode ON and OFF, which will stop all agents and deploy the new software to them (the so-called agelets that are delivered centrally from Solman LM-SERVICE to the managed system's SMD Agent).

This is all you must execute after a LM-SERVICE upgrade.

Therefore there's no reason to rerun the whole setup wizard, as it may cause issues with wrong parameters in the setup wizard. If the managed system is working perfectly and this is only an upgrade, it is not recommended to do the setup wizard again.

Best regards,

Guilherme

Hi Shyam,

After patching, usually the LMSERVICES components gets updated and hence the diagnostics components would be updated on the SolMan. Ideally the upgrader for SMD maintenance should handle the SP update completely. But personally I re-run the Managed system setup too after an SP update. It seems to help.
