This page describes how to add monitoring for a standalone SAP HANA database from a central monitoring installation. More details about the central monitoring system can be found in the chapter Install on central SAP system.

Info

If HANA database is used as standard database for a central or remote SAP system, you might start the additional collector jobs with monitoring profiles HDB_5MIN and HDB_1DAY for HANA Database monitoring without adding a new extra system. More details about scheduling new collector jobs for mentioned monitoring profiles can be found in the chapter Create and schedule a Collector job.

Prerequisites for an external HANA Database monitoring

  • A valid connection user created within the monitored HANA database. For security and password management reasons, we recommend creating a new specific monitoring user (e.g. CBMON-<SID of the central monitoring system>).

  • A valid database connection defined in DBCON on the central monitoring system, as described on the page Create a Secondary HANA Connection.

    • A connection test for database connection can be done by executing the report “ADBC_TEST_CONNECTION” or directly in transaction “DBACOCKPIT”.

    • If HANA Database is monitored through a remote SAP system via RFC destination, a valid database connection needs to be defined in DBCON on the monitored remote SAP system.

There is automatically detected the IP Address for all database servers, which is used as a full network address of this server. This address might be adjusted in System settings.

If any database node on HANA is configured as a Standby node, this node is also detected in the list of servers, but those servers are not monitored by default (more details can be found in (DI-2305) Working Tabs).
