DBACOCKPIT Connection for SAP systems with SAP Router

Former Member
0 Kudos

Hello!

We are trying to integrate all the remote SAP systems and their databases (primarily Oracle) into DBACOCKPIT of SAP Solution Manager 7.1.

Our SAP Solution Manager is running on Windows with Oracle 11.2.0.2

The most SAP systems (Unix and Windows) can only be reached from SAP Solution Manger over the SAP Router connection.

It means no direct ping from Solution Manager server to the Server of managed system will work.

Question

Is it possible to integrate such SAP systems (with SAP Router) into DBACOCKPIT of Solution Manager?

According to sap note 1265134 only the DBCON-connection will be required.

By doing so (tcode SOLMAN_SETUP), we get TNS errors.

Do we miss some additional steps (adapting tnsnames.ora of SOLMAN with the entry of managed system), etc.?

Thank you!

regards

Your sap router sits inbetween the oracle client and the other databases. In the tnsnames.ora you do not have the option to provide a route string. Please check if it is possible to reach the servers with the saprouter inbetween.

Hello,

the sap router resides between the Solution Manager server (our network) and the sap systems of customers (customer network).

We of course can reach these systems via SM59.

The question still is whether or not the several SAP systems with Oracle that can be reached from Solution Manager over SAP Router can be integrated into DBACOCKPIT of SAP Solution Manager in order to gather/ analyze performance data?

Thank you!

Systems can be reached via SM59, then what's the problem ?

In fact, this 'is' the standard procedure. This is as normal as you could have Solution manager in same 'network' with rest of the remote systems.

Answer should be yes, you can manage several remote sap systems from sap solution manager dbacockpit.

Hello!

The remote systems can be reached via SM59, but with the sap router string (e.g. /H/saprouter/H/server_x).

The Solution Manager and remote system reside on the different networks. It means no direct ping from server of Solution Manager to the server of remote system will work.

The DB connect feature does not have an option to provide route string as the it directly connects to the database via the dbsl, and the db client and not via any RFC invoked on the target application. I feel the db host that is provided in the tnsnames.ora should have a direct connection from the application of the central system without any kind of software or hardware firewall .

Any expert is welcome to provide any suggestion as to how to get over this . I feel a network expert can through some light on this issue.

Many thanks!

Within tcode DBACOCKPIT there is the possibility to add RFC connection for the setup of DB connection.

Is it something that can be helpful? The RFC connection from SOLMAN to managed system (string like /H/server1/H/server2) works fine...
