Default Parameters for ScpDbAseStatusTest

If a user complaints of problems while accessing the database, the knowledge of the current state of that database will enable administrators to promptly diagnose the reason for such an occurrence. This test monitors all the databases running on SAP BTP Neo Environment and reports the current state of each database, thereby enabling administrators to easily troubleshoot issues related to database access.

This page depicts the default parameters that need to be configured for the ScpDbAseStatusTest.

  • The TEST PERIOD list box helps the user to decide how often this test needs to be executed.

  • In SAP Cloud Platform Cockpit, one user account will have multiple subaccounts. So you can mention any one of the subaccount name in the SUBACCOUNT text box. To know how to determine the Subaccount name, refer to Identifying the API Endpoint URL and Subaccount topic in Pre-requisites for Monitoring SAP BTP Neo Environment section of Monitoring SAP BTP Neo Environment document.

  • Specify comma-separated list of ASE Database names pattern that need to be included for monitoring in the DATABASE NAMES text box. To know how to determine the ASE Database names, refer to Determining the Names of HANA/ASE Databases to be Monitored topic in Pre-requisites for Monitoring SAP BTP Neo Environment section of Monitoring SAP BTP Neo Environment document.

  • For collecting the metrics, specify the Username in the USER text box. The Username here refers to the Client ID created in SAP Cloud Platform Cockpit. To know how to create such a user (Client ID) in SAP Cloud Platform Cockpit, refer to Registering the eG Agent as an API Client topic in Pre-requisites for Monitoring SAP BTP Neo Environment section of Monitoring SAP BTP Neo Environment document.

  • Specify the password in the PASSWORD text box. The Password here refers to the Client Secret created in SAP Cloud Platform Cockpit. To know how to create Password (Client Secret) in SAP Cloud Platform Cockpit, refer to Registering the eG Agent as an API Client topic in Pre-requisites for Monitoring SAP BTP Neo Environment section of Monitoring SAP BTP Neo Environment document.

  • Confirm the password by retyping it here in the CONFIRM PASSWORD text box

  • DD FREQUENCY refers to the frequency with which detailed diagnosis measures are to be generated for this test. The default is 1:1. This indicates that, by default, detailed measures will be generated every time this test runs, and also every time the test detects a problem. You can modify this frequency, if you so desire. Also, if you intend to disable the detailed diagnosis capability for this test, you can do so by specifying none against DD FREQUENCY.

  • Once the above values are provided, click on the UPDATE button to register the changes made.

When changing default configurations of tests, the values with “$” indicate variables that will be replaced by the eG system according to the specific server being managed - for instance, $hostName is the host/nickname of the target host, $port is the port number of the server being monitored. E.g., for a server xyz:80, $hostName will be changed automatically by the eG manager to “xyz*” and $port will be changed to “80” when configuring a test.
