To capture resource monitoring
data from SAP NetWeaver, you must configure the data source.
Before you begin
Before you can capture resource monitoring data from SAP NetWeaver,
you must specify the path to the client files:
- com_sap_pj_jmx.jar
- exception.jar
- logging.jar
- sapj2eeclient.jar
Specify the path to the client files on the
SAP NetWeaver
Web Application Server Client Preferences page. The SAP
NetWeaver client files are provided with SAP NetWeaver, not with
IBM® Rational® Performance Tester.
The versions of the client files must match the version of SAP NetWeaver
running on the server under test. Copy the client files to the workbench
computer, and then specify the path to the files.
The resource monitoring
feature was tested on SAP NetWeaver 7.0 (2004s). Resource monitoring
from other versions of SAP NetWeaver might not be supported.
Procedure
- On the Location page, specify the
connection and authentication information for the instance of SAP
NetWeaver to use to capture resource monitoring data. If you need
to change the port for communicating with the computer that is running
SAP NetWeaver, change the Connection information.
Typically, your SAP NetWeaver system administrator specifies this
information. Use the P4 port to communicate with the computer that
is running SAP NetWeaver. The default value of the P4 port is 50004.
For more information about port numbers, see the SAP NetWeaver documentation.
- Ensure that Administrative security enabled is
selected.
- Type the user ID and password for SAP NetWeaver in Authentication. To capture resource monitoring data from SAP NetWeaver, you
must use an account with administrator rights.
- Select Save Password to save
your password locally. If you do not save your password, you might
be prompted for it (depending on the host system configuration) when
you edit the configured location or when you run test schedules that
use the location.
- On the Resource page, select the type
of data to capture. The tree view shows the application server and
its counter groups and counters. Be selective; monitoring all possible
resource data requires substantial amounts of memory. Clear the Show
only selected counters check box to see all available
counters. Hold your mouse pointer over a counter to see details about
what that counter measures.
- Configure the options on the Options page.
Type the Polling Interval in seconds, for collecting
resource data. For example, if you accept the default setting of 5
seconds, counter information will be collected at 5-second intervals
from the specified host during the schedule run.
- To collect the resource monitoring data for the system under test that is in the cloud, in the
Cloud Options tab, click the Location in Public Cloud
check box.
- Click Next.
- Specify a location and name and click Finish.
