ABAP instance memory

This monitor will check the memory usage of each application server:
  * Extended memory usage
  * Heap memory usage and peak usage
  * paging and rolling memory usage
The monitor will send an alarm if any of the memory usage exceeds the thresholds.

Configuration hints

Use the surveillance table to adjust the monitoring settings:
- Instance name
- Thresholds
- Severity, etc…

Thresholds are independent and can be set to 0 if not used.

Multi severity threshold

You can use the multi threshold syntax to define multiple threshold/severity settings per rule.

Surveillance table

Parameter	Description
Active	Use this field to activate or deactivate a line of configuration.
Instance	A filter to match only a subset of instances.
Max extended memory (%/MB)	The threshold for the extended memory usage. Use absolute value (Megabytes) or percentage of total available (specify % unit).
Max Heap usage (%/MB)	The threshold for heap memory usage. Use absolute value (Megabytes) or percentage of the total extended memory (specify % unit)
Peak heap usage (%/MB)	The threshold for the maximum heap usage since instance startup. Use absolute value (Megabytes) or percentage of the total extended memory (specify % unit)
Max paging (%)	The threshold for the max paging memory in percent.
Max rolling (%)	The threshold for the max rolling memory in percent.
Severity	The level of severity of the alarm generated by this line of surveillance.
Auto clear	If checked, the alarm will be cleared as soon as the alarm condition is not met anymore.
Alarm tag	This field allows to add custom text within the alarm message. %MSG% variable will contain the actual generated message and can be used such as: “my_prefix %MSG% my_suffix”. By default, tag will be used as prefix.
Alarm	If checked, this line of surveillance will be used for alarm generation.
Metric	If checked, this line of surveillance will be used for metric generation.
Report	If checked, this line of surveillance will used for showing threshold and severity in the daily report

Examples

Actif	Instance	Max mem étendue (%/MB)	Heap usage (%/MB)	Peak heap usage (%/MB)	Max paging (%)	Max rolling (%)	Sévérité	Auto clear	Tag alarme	Alarme	Métrique	Rapport
true	*	80%	10%	0	0	0	MAJOR	true		true	false	false

Effect : Send an alarm if any instance uses 80% of its extended memory, or if its heap mem. usage is greater than 10% than total *extended*.

Examples

Actif	Instance	Max mem étendue (%/MB)	Heap usage (%/MB)	Peak heap usage (%/MB)	Max paging (%)	Max rolling (%)	Sévérité	Auto clear	Tag alarme	Alarme	Métrique	Rapport
true	mysap_PRD_00	0	0	0	15	15	WARNING	true		true	false	false

Effect : Send a WARNING alarm if instance mysap_PRD_00 has more than 15% memory paging or rolling
