• To visualize SAP monitoring data in your ScienceLogic SL1 instance, you need to install a Pro.Monitor collector in each data center hosting the systems.
• Pro.Monitor will act as a proxy between your SAP systems and a ScienceLogic SL1 collector
• It will connect remotely to each SAP system and needs to be installed in a network area allowing to do so

• Those responsible for installing the solution should have the following skills:
  • Basic linux administration for installing software and creating user accounts
  • SAP basis users & authorizations administration
  • Database users administration
  • Network administration to implement network routes
  • SL1 administrator for installing collector and configuring the powerpack

• A Pro.Monitor license, requested at support@agentil-software.com.
• A dedicated Linux VM with appropriate specs
• Network routes open toward SAP application ports
• A dedicated user created on each system to monitor (See create SAP users)
• See AGENTIL's Pro.Monitor Prerequisites Documentation for more details.

Insalling and configuring Pro.Monitor should not take more than an hour if prerequisites are set correctly

• Install the JAVA JRE
• Download the latest Pro.Monitor package.
• Copy the package into a temporary folder - Not in /opt
• Execute below commands:

tar -zxvf [PACKAGE FILE NAME]
./install.sh
systemctl start promonitor

• Pro.Monitor should be up and running.

You can configure Pro.Monitor using a web interface:

• Visit http://[PRO.MONITOR VM HOSTNAME]:8888 in a web browser. The default username/password combination is admin/admin

• Click the gear icon on the top right to open a menu. Then, select Licenses.
• Copy the provided license keys and save

• Get the latest SAP JCO driver for Linux and unzip the file to extract a tgz archive.
• Click the gear icon on the top right to open a menu. Then, select Admin configuration and go the Upload/Download section.
• Click on Install JCO driver and select the driver file (file name similar to sapjco30P_17-10005328_linux.tgz).

• The SL1 collector will pull data from Pro.Monitor API to discover SAP environement and collect SAP metadata.
• You just need to create a Generic event server to activate the API
• Click the gear icon on the top right to open a menu. Then, select Plugins.
• Select the Generic server type in the plugin selector and press create.

For connecting Pro.Monitor to a SAP system, you will need first to create a group, a system, a user and a connector.

• Create your first group

• Fill the group formular
• Don't foget to set group shortname and company shortname:

• You can now create your first system
• From the group contextual menu, select “Add system”
• Select the appropriate system
• Don't forget to set system shortname

• Now you can create a user
• From configure menu, select add user

• User profiles are associated to a group
• It will be used later when creating a connector

• Now you can create connector
• From the system contextual menu, select “Add connector”
• Select the appropriate connector type

• Then fill the connector form
• The connector holds the necessary connection parameters to reach the system
• Press Save&Test, you should see a green popup indicating a successful connection

The monitoring of SAP systems is done via monitoring profiles

• Create your first profile
• You can import, create and customize profiles from the profiles section on the left

• From the profiles menu, select Select default profiles
• Select the ScienceLogic SL1 profile and press Save.
• The imported profile will appear in the list of profiles
• Now you can assign your profile via the assign button

• From the assign menu, just move the available connectors from right to left, then save.
• Your connectors are now associated with a set of predefined monitors

• Last step: Activate the monitoring:
• Select a connector and press “Start monitoring”

Monitoring is now active for all your systems, which you should see in ScienceLogic SL1.

Those are the main steps to complete for configuring the SAP integration in SL1:

• Upload and install the SAP powerpack
• Register Pro.Monitor REST API credentials
• Create a root virtual device
• Assign discovery dynamic applications

After having completed those few steps, the SAP infrastructure will be discovered and you will be able to see events and metrics within your SL1 instance.

• Go to System → credentials

• Create connection profile
• Set the Pro.Monitor collector URL and authentication parameters

• Go to device manager

• Create a virtual device

• Edit the created device and go to collectors tab
• Assign dynamic applications:

• You need to assign two applications:
  • REST: SAP alerts for root
  • REST: SAP PM groups discovery
• Select the applications within the list.
• Once clicked on the application name, this will list the available credentials
• Select the credentials that you created and save
• 

• Once done, you should see two applications aligned with the device.
• From now on, your SAP architecture will be automatically discovered
