SOLMAN_INPERF_SETUP - General Configuration

To be able to use IT Performance Reporting for the central display of the most important monitoring data in your monitored systems, you must run the corresponding setup.

See Information and Configuration Prerequisites

1. Call the System Monitoring work center.
2. Navigate to the Setup view.
3. Choose the Configure IT Performance Reporting link.
4. The General Settings screen appears. In the Settings BI System area, enter the data for the BI system in which the performance values are to be collected. In detail, these are:

• RFC Destination from Solution Manager to BI

Enter the RFC destination of the BI system in which the performance values are to be saved. The destination has the naming convention CLNT.

Only if BI and Solution Manager are running in the same system and the same client, enter NONE; if both are running in the same system in different clients, enter an RFC destination in the BI client.

• RFC Destination from BI to Solution Manager

Enter the RFC destination for the Solution Manager system. If BI and Solution Manager are running in the same system and the same client, also enter NONE; if both are running in the same system in different clients, enter an RFC destination in the client in which you open Solution Manager.

• Time Zone of Transferred Data

When the performance values are transferred from the monitored systems to BI, the data is converted to a single time zone. Enter the required time zone here.

• Enforce Content Activation

If you are setting up IT Performance Reporting for the first time, this indicator is set automatically. If you want to change the configuration at a later date (for example, to add new monitored systems to Reporting), you can force the activation of the content yourself. This is useful if the content itself may have been changed, for example, after the installation of a Support Package. It may also be necessary to reactivate the content if errors occurred during the previous activation.

1. In the Lifetimes area, enter the retention periods of the performance values in BI in the various granularities. In detail, these are:

• Minute/Quarter of an Hour Values (in Days)

Enter the retention period of the raw data in days here. Depending on the type of determination in the monitored systems, these values may be available in minute or quarter-hour granularity. Note that data in this level of detail in BI requires a lot of memory capacity and that the transfer of data to BI creates a high system load, depending on the number of monitored systems. Therefore, the standard retention period is set to zero, that is, this data is not transferred to BI.

• Hour Values/Day Averages (in Days)

Enter the retention period of the daily values in hourly granularity in days here. In this granularity, one value is saved for each hour of a day, thus 24 values per day.

• Weekly Averages (in Weeks)

Enter the retention period of the weekly aggregates in hourly granularity in weeks here. In this granularity, one value is saved for each hour of the day over one week, thus 24 values per week. This means that the values for a specific hour (for example, from 12 pm to 1 pm) are aggregated into one value for all days of a week.

• Monthly Averages (in Months)

Enter the retention period of the monthly aggregates in hourly granularity in months here. In this granularity, one value is saved for each hour of the day over one month, thus 24 values per month. This means that the values for a specific hour (for example, from 12 pm to 1 pm) are aggregated into one value for all days of a month.

Note:

If you repeatedly open the setup of IT Performance Reporting because the original content activation failed, it may be necessary to display the activation log for the earlier activation. You can therefore start the Log Viewer in its own window by choosing the relevant pushbutton and the required activation.

1. Choose Next. If you have already set up IT Performance Reporting in a lower Support Package level and the current BI content is not yet active, the CPH Data Migration screen appears. You can transfer the old dataset.
1. You still have your performance values saved in the Central Performance History (CPH) of the monitoring infrastructure. This archive is now no longer necessary; a suitable program exists for migration. If you want to transfer the dataset from CPH to the new IT Performance Reporting, set the Copy CPH Data indicator.
2. In the RFC Destination from BI to CPH input field, enter the RFC connection to the central monitoring system in which your CPH is located.
3. Choose Next.
2. The continuation of the configuration is described in Step 2.
