# SAP Instance - Monitoring Parameters

Here you will find detailed information about monitoring parameters for SAP Instance monitored objects.

Monitoring parameters are the mechanism for you to configure how your systems are monitored. They are how you set configuration of how the agent runs, how checks are executed, thresholds for checks (when does a check go critical or warning) and much more. All Monitoring Parameters have a carefully chosen default value. As soon as you add a new system, Avantra uses these defaults. You may change these defaults by defining a parameter and by modifying its values. Monitoring Parameters can be defined for a single system, or for collections of systems using Monitoring Parameter Sets. You can also define your own Custom Monitoring Parameters for use within Custom Checks and automations.

## AutoChangeDetectionIgnore

Controls the System Change Auto Detection (for Servers)

Description

AutoChangeDetectionIgnore is used to exclude parameters from System Change Auto Detection. If, for example, a parameter value changes regularly and this behavior is well known, you may add the parameter to the exclude list.

The parameter value is still updated in the Avantra Database, but no change record will be created. Since there are several change detection objects, you must prefix the list with a keyword to indicate the object type.

For SAP Instances, `INSTPROFPARAM`, `J2EESYSPROP`, and `J2EEVMPARAM` are currently supported. Wildcard `*` is supported to define multiple parameters.

Example 1. Ignored Changes

    J2EEVMPARAM: java.proc.id, java.mem*; J2EESYSPROP: *

Description

The parameter can be used to configure custom keywords, which serve to verify the validity of the `/nwa/sysinfo` page, which is retrieved by the J2EEConnectHttp check. If one of the keywords is found on the page, the page is considered to be valid and the J2EEConnectHttp check is OK.

By default, the check J2EEConnectHttpPageKeywords looks for the instance host name on the page. For customised pages, which do not contain the instance host name, this turns the check to Critical.

If you specifiy a '*', the page verification is omitted, and a successful login to any page is accepted.

Reference Data

Configures | J2EEConnectHttp

Unit | Number

## J2EEConnectUrlSuffix

Configures the URL being used by the Java SAP Instance HTTP connect Check J2EEConnectHttp

Description

Defines the URL to be used by the J2EEConnectHttp Check.

The following syntax is supported:

- Suffix only, e.g. `/sap/monitoring/SystemInfo`. The Suffix is appended to the default URL (`http://localhost:5<sysno>00`) by the Avantra Agent internally.
  For SAP systems 7.10 and newer, the default path is `/nwa/sysinfo`.
  For SAP systems 7.0x and older, the default path is `/sap/monitoring/SystemInfo`.

- Suffix with leading port, e. g. `:8080/sap/monitoring/SystemInfo`. (The leading colon is mandatory!). You will have to use this syntax if the HTTP port has been changed from its default value `5<system_number>00`.

- Whole URL starting with `http://`. You can freely define which URL to be checked. This mode may be used for special purposes.

- Whole URL starting with `https://`. You can use this option if you want to access an https service. You also have to use this option if the default SystemInfo page is accessed via https.

In the #http/https[] options, placeholders for hosts and ports can be used. Specify `<host>` to let the Avantra Agent use the default host (usually 'localhost') and/or `<port>` to let it use the default port of the specified protocol (`5<sysno>00` for `http` and `5<sysno>01` for `https`).

Example 2. J2EEConnectUrlSuffix monitoring parameter

    https://<host>:<port>/sap/monitoring/SystemInfo

    http://192.168.123.456:<port>/myhtmlpage

You can also use client authentication in conjunction with https. See the description of the J2EEKeystoreName Monitoring Parameter for further information.

| If you cannot get J2EEConnectHttp to work using J2EEConnectUrlSuffix, then you might need to disable the check.

Reference Data

Unit | String

## J2EEKeyPw

Defines (optional) a key password for use with the Java SAP Instance connect Check

Description

This password is used to retrieve the keys from the keystore specified in the J2EEKeystoreName Monitoring Parameter. Do not define this parameter unless the keystore keys are password protected. See the description of the J2EEKeystoreName Monitoring Parameter.

Reference Data

Configures | J2EECONNECT
Unit | String

## J2EEKeystoreName

Defines keystore for secure authentication with the Java SAP Instance connect Check

Description

If you use the J2EECONNECT check with `https`, you might also want to use certificates to authenticate the server and client. Whereas server certificates are handled without further configuration (the Avantra Agent trusts all incoming certificates by default), client certificates must be configured and installed manually.

In order to enable client authentication in the J2EECONNECT check, a java keystore file containing the accurate certificate must have been generated, stored in a location readable by the Avantra Agent, and defined in this parameter. (If you do not define this parameter, no client authentication will be performed.)

The path of the keystore file can be specified as follows: * Fully qualified path, e.g.. `/usr/keys/keystore.ks` * Relative path. A relative path is applied to the {avantra-agent}'s `cfg` directory, e.g. `keystore.ks` (will resolve to `<syslink`install_dir>/lyceus/cfg/keystore.ks.)

Reference Data

Configures | J2EECONNECT
Unit | String

## J2EEKeystorePw

Defines an optional keystore password for secure authentication with the Java SAP Instance connect Check

Description

Password for an optional integrity check of the keystore. If you specify this parameter, the used keystore is checked for integrity, otherwise, the keystore is loaded without an integrity check. For this to work, the keystore must have been stored using the same integrity password before.

Reference Data

Configures | J2EECONNECT
Unit | String

## J2EEKeystoreType

Defines an optional keystore type for secure authentication with the Java SAP Instance connect Check

Description

Indicates the type of the keystore specified in J2EEKeystoreName. The keystore type must exactly correspond to the type of the used java keystore. If a keystore is specified but not a keystore type, `pkcs12` is used as the default keystore type.

Reference Data

Configures | J2EECONNECT
Unit | String

## J2EEP4Port

Configures the P4 port used with the Java SAP Instance connect Check

Description

The Avantra Agent connects the Java instance at the P4 port, as SAP Visual Administrator does. If this TCP/IP port has been changed from its default value, you need to adapt J2EEP4Port to the correct value.

Reference Data

Configures | J2EECONNECT
Default Value | 5<sysnr>04
Unit | String

## J2EEP4TransportType

Configures the transport type used with the Java SAP Instance connect Check

Description

The Avantra Agent connects the Java instance at the P4 port defined by J2EEP4Port. The J2EEP4TransportType Monitoring Parameter defines the transport layer (or protocol) used for this connection. By default, the value is `None` and the `P4` protocol is used.

You can choose `SSL` in order to use the `P4S` protocol scheme in case of which the Avantra Agent uses Transport Layer Security (TLS) for the connection.

You can choose `HTTPS` to use the `P4HTTPS` protocol scheme. The Avantra Agent then tunnels the connection through HTTPS.

Reference Data

Configures | J2EECONNECT
Default Value | `None`
Unit | String

Reference Data

Configures | J2EESystemThreadsPool
Default Value | 80
Unit | %

## JavaASAvgRespTimeConsiderBest

Defines which server processes are used to calculate the Java average response time

Description

Per default, the response times of all server processes are used to get the overall average response time of an instance. If you have multiple server processes, and most of them perform well but a few very bad, the overall response time may be affected and display a false alert.

This is where JavaASAvgRespTimeConsiderBest will help. It defines the percentage of the best performing server processes used to calculate the overall server response time. The remaining will not be considered. If, for example, you set it to 50, it will only consider the best 50 percent of your server response times, i.e. if you’ve got 6 servers, only the best 3 response times of those 6 servers will be compared to the thresholds. The default value of the parameter is 100 %, which corresponds to the original behavior of the check, that all server processes are used to calculate the overall value.

Reference Data

Configures | JavaASAvgRespTime
Default Value | 100
Unit | %

## JavaASAvgRespTimeCrit

Configures critical threshold for Java average response time

Description

If the `JARM` average response time exceeds this value the check status is set to Critical.

Reference Data

Configures | JavaASAvgRespTime
Default Value | 3000
Unit | Milliseconds

## JavaASAvgRespTimeReset

Controls Java average response time reset

Description

Defines if or if not the JavaASAvgRespTime check resets the `JARM` statistic records. By default it does. There is no need to change this value unless you use other tools that also try to reset the `JARM` statistic records.

Reference Data

Configures | JavaASAvgRespTime
Default Value | 1
Unit | Boolean

## JavaASAvgRespTimeWarn

Configures warning threshold for Java average response time

Description

If `JARM` average response time exceeds this value but does not exceed JavaASAvgRespTimeCrit, the check status is set to Warning.

Reference Data

Configures | JavaASAvgRespTime
Default Value | 1500
Unit | Milliseconds

## JavaHttpPort

Configures the HTTP port used for the J2EEConnectHttp and PI checks on a Java SAP Instance.

Description

The Avantra Agent tries to determine the HTTP port of a Java SAP Instance automatically from the instance profile entries ICM/SERVER_PORT_nn with protocol HTTP (for pre 7.10 instances ICM/HTTP/J2EE_nn); by default 5<sysno>00 is used.

If an HTTPS port is detected in the profile as well, the HTTPS port will be preferred to the HTTP port, and the connection will be established using SSL and the HTTPS port. To overrule this behavior, you may set JavaHttpPort, which in turn overrides HTTPS and forces the usage of HTTP on the specified port.

If detection fails and the default port is wrong, JavaHttpPort may be used to force-set the HTTP port.

Reference Data

Configures | J2EEConnectHttp, PI_AdapterFramework, PI_AEMessages, PI_AEMessagesStat, PI_CommChannels, PI_IntegrationDirectory, PI_IntegrationRepository, PI_MappingRunTime, PI_RuntimeWorkbench, PI_SystemLandscapeDir
Default Value | 5<sysnr>00
Unit | String

## JavaHttpsPort

Configures the HTTPS port used for the J2EEConnectHttp and PI checks on a Java SAP Instance.

Description

The Avantra Agent tries to determine the HTTPS port of a Java SAP Instance automatically from the instance profile entries ICM/SERVER_PORT_nn with protocol HTTPS (for pre 7.10 instances ICM/HTTPS/J2EE_nn);. If no HTTPS port is detected, HTTPS won’t be used by default.

If both HTTP and HTTPS ports are detected in the profile, the HTTPS port will be preferred over the HTTP port, and the connection will be established using SSL and the HTTPS port. See the description of JavaHttpPort for further details.

If detection fails for an HTTPS port, JavaHttpsPort may be used to force-set the HTTPS port, overruling any JavaHttpPort setting.

Reference Data

Configures | J2EEConnectHttp, PI_AdapterFramework, PI_AEMessages, PI_AEMessagesStat, PI_CommChannels, PI_IntegrationDirectory, PI_IntegrationRepository, PI_MappingRunTime, PI_RuntimeWorkbench, PI_SystemLandscapeDir

## TREXAlertStatusMapping

Configures mapping of Alert Server check status to Avantra check status.

Description

This parameter allows you to reconfigure the mapping of the check states of a TREX Alert Server to the check states of Avantra. You must specify a comma-separated list of numbers, which get assigned in order of their appearance to the Avantra states 2 (CRITICAL), 1 (WARNING), 0 (OK), -1 (UNKNOWN), -2 (DISABLED). Not all states must be specified, so it is sufficient to assign the first 3 values to get a proper mapping.

Optionally, you can specify mappings for the check name in addition to the default mapping, or you can simply change the mapping for individual checks. Consider the following examples:

`2,1,0` : All TREX checks use mapping 2,1,0

`2,1,0;TREX Alertserver Start: 3,2,1` : All TREX checks use mapping 2,1,0 except for check TREX Alertserver Start, which uses 3,2,1

`TREX Disk Usage: 2,1,0; TREX CPU Usage: 2,1,0` : All TREX checks use the default mapping 3,2,1,0 except for checks TREX Disk Usage (2,1,0) and TREX CPU Usage (2,1,0).

The default assignment is 3 → 2 (CRITICAL), 2 → 1 (WARNING), 1 → 0 (OK), 0 → -1 (UNKNOWN)
