Integrating SAP R/3 and Data Protector

Monitoring an SAP R/3 Backup and Restore

 

Monitoring an SAP R/3 Backup and Restore

 

The Data Protector GUI enables you to monitor current or previous

 

backup and restore sessions.

 

 

NOTE

Only the Data Protector users in the Admin group and those granted the

 

Monitor user rights are given access to the Data Protector monitoring

 

functionality.

 

Monitoring is automatically activated when you start a restore or

 

 

backup.

 

Monitoring Current Sessions

 

During a backup, system messages are sent to both the SAP R/3

 

Database Server and the Data Protector monitor. Thus, you can monitor

 

a backup session from either the SAP R/3 Database Server or from any

 

Data Protector client in the network where the User Interface is

 

installed.

 

When it is detected that no more data can be backed up on the media,

 

either because they are not in a device or because they are full, and a

 

mount prompt is issued, the message is sent to the Data Protector

 

monitor only, not to SAP R/3. Change the media and confirm the mount

 

prompt in Data Protector.

 

To monitor a currently running session using the Data Protector GUI,

 

proceed as follows:

 

1. In the Context List, click Monitor.

 

In the Results Area, all currently running sessions are listed.

 

2. Double-click the session you want to monitor.

Clearing Sessions To remove all completed or aborted sessions from the Results Area of the Monitor context, proceed as follows:

1. In the Scoping Pane, click Current Sessions.
