(DI-2211) Collector for SAP Extended Memory
The technical name of the Collector for SAP extended memory usage is /DVD/MON_CL_COL_BUFF.
This collector collects information about extended memory usage for each application server of the SAP system. Additionally, it collects memory usage also for extended global memory, which is a subset of extended memory.
Default KPIs delivered with this collector
The following default KPIs are delivered with this collector:
KPI name | Description | Unit | Collected for | Server specification |
---|---|---|---|---|
EMG_PEAK | All time peak usage of extended global memory | MB | Server | Any server |
EMG_TOTAL | Extended global memory total size | MB | Server | Any server |
EMG_USED | Extended global memory used | MB | Server | Any server |
EMG_USED_P | Extended global memory used | % | Server | Any server |
EM_TOTAL | Total size of extended memory | MB | Server | Any server |
EM_USED | Used extended memory | MB | Server | Any server |
EM_USED_P | Extended memory used | MB | Server | Any server |
EM_USED_P_SYS_MAX | Maximum of extended memory used (all servers) | % | System | Any server |
ROLL_USED_P | Roll area used | % | Server | Any server |
ROLL_USED_P_SYS_MAX | Maximum of roll area used (all servers) | % | System | Only application server |
The total size of the global extended memory (as shown e.g. by the report RSMEMORY) that is actually reserved by Application Server ABAP (AS ABAP) at the start is always higher than the value of em/global_area_MB
, since AS ABAP needs to reserve additional space in the EG for ABAP shared objects.
