SAPControl connector

With the SAP control connector, you can collect information available through the SAP management console for ABAP and JAVA stack systems:
- Running processes and services
- Active components
- Published server metrics and alerts
This connector uses the SAPControl web services available on each instance
One connector per monitored application server can be necessary
To create connector, there are two steps:
1. Create an OS user and register it in Pro.Monitor
2. Create and set connector parameters

User profiles can be reached via Systems→SAP users
Create a new profile using the “Add” button
Once created, the user profile can be selected in the connector form
Note: A user profile is by default associated with a company . You can explicitly set a profile to be cross companies. The effect is that it will be selectable from connectors of any companies.
The corresponding user must be created in the server at OS level, and associated with the appropriate user group in order to have the authorization to execute the webservices
See Note 927637 for more information about user settings on the application server

The default ABAP connector form will let you configure a connection to the message server.
- Host: the hostname or IP address of the ABAP message server
- System number: The system number of the application server, this will define connection ports: 5XX13 or 5XX14 if secure mode is on.
- User: The user profile to use for the connection
- Force connection port: To use if the port of the service is different than 5XX13 or 5XX14
Press Save & Test to save the profile and check the connection is working
