System tree

CrystalBridge® Monitoring Fiori monitored system overview (MSO) screen displays the status of all monitored systems. This chapter describes where the data is coming from to the MSO and how the user can customize it.

Monitored system list

The list of displayed monitored systems and their assignment to system groups is dependent on their definition in the /DVD/MON transaction (CrystalBridge® Monitoring cockpit) of the central system.



System group assignment

Each system defined in a cockpit is also shown in the MSO. As MSO is not capable to display systems in a tree view that is used in a Cockpit transaction, each system is assigned to exactly one group (folder) from the topmost level of the system tree structure. Taking the previous picture as an example, the system "ED2" would be assigned and displayed under the 'Production systems' system group while the system "NSJ" would be assigned to the 'Testing Systems' system group. 

You can change which folder of the tree structure will serve as the topmost level by changing the particular setting value using the program '/DVD/HC_ODATA_SETTINGS'. By providing an ID of a system group for the parameter 'SYSTEM_GROUP_TOP', the specified group will become the topmost level for all the users.

Example: If we would change the parameter value to 'ALL_SYSTEMS' (our systems), system ED2 would be assigned to the system group in Fiori MSO. All systems that are not direct children of a set topmost level, are automatically assigned to the artificial group 'Not Assigned Systems'.

Administrator customizations per user

The user (administrator) with access to the CrystalBridge® Monitoring Cockpit (under the transaction '/DVD/MON') can set up filters per user. Using these filter systems and system groups can be excluded from MSO for specific users. To assign a user a specific filter, go to transaction /DVD/MON and choose 'System Settings'. Filter directly on systems can be set up in 'Filter for system ID'. Filter for whole system group can be set up in 'Filter for system group' section.


Once some customization is set up for the user in 'System Settings' of CrystalBridge® Monitoring Cockpit, it is always used as a filter on the appropriate object list. If there is a filter of type 'Include' for one system, the affected user will see only that system in MSO even that other systems are not explicitly excluded.

System status indicator

Each system in the monitored system overview (MSO) has an assigned icon that represents its status. System status is defined by the following logic:

  1. System status is set to NaN.

  2. Check if a system is available. If no, the ERROR status is set and processing is ended. 

  3. Check if there are any running collector jobs for the system. If there is at least one running collector, the status is set to OK.

  4. Check all opened alerts for the system. Based on alert priority type appropriate system status is set.

Available system statuses are displayed below sorted according to priority with the least priority on the left.

System status KPI

Each system in system overview (MSO) can have a status KPI assigned. This KPI should reflect the overall system health. To set up a KPI that should be displayed in MSO for a specific system, you can go to 'System settings' of CrystalBridge® Monitoring Cockpit. Under the 'System status KPI' option he can assign which KPI value should be displayed in MSO.

It is possible to override this setting for each user under the 'System status KPI' option. 

Each value in the system status KPI is accompanied by a trend indicator. Indicator direction is determined by the last two values of status KPI.
