SAP SYSTEM MONITORING TCODES
In this article,I am going to cover SAP SYSTEM MONITORING Tcodes , For any Basis Admin, daily sap system monitoring check is essential task.We daily do health check of our production sap system.
SAP daily system monitoring helps in two way-
Preventive Health check– This health check helps to prevent issue that may happen in near future. e.g. suppose in our daily SAP System monitoring,we catch our database size is 99 % full that means anytime in future DB size will be full and it’ll lead production outage.
Regular health check– This is regular health check which helps us for solving daily system issues. e.g We find most of the work processes in SM50 is in PRIV/Stopped mode or some user is taking all system resources/memory.This issue can be solved immediately — Killing that user session and release memory.
