SAP monitor allows you to monitor the availability and performance of SAP environment
from a centralized web console. SAP monitor takes advantage of the SAP CCMS
(Computer Center Management System) architecture to give insightful information
about the SAP system along with fault management and reporting capabilities.
Availability tab, gives the Availability history for the past 24 hours or 30
days. Performance tab gives the Health Status and events for the past 24 hours
or 30 days. List view enables you to perform bulk
admin configurations.
