SCC Top Time Consumers Test

In the context of SAP Cloud Connector (SCC), "Top Time Consumers" typically refers to a list of services, applications, or specific requests that are consuming the most time in terms of response time or processing time. Identifying the top time consumers is important for optimizing the performance of SCC and diagnosing potential bottlenecks or performance issues.

This test monitors the SAP Cloud Connector top time consumers and collects key metrics like average response time, external time, data sent and received etc. This metrics provide valuable insights to administrators in identifying top time consumers and act accordingly.

Target of the test : SAP Cloud Connector.

Agent deploying the test : An external/internal agent

Outputs of the test : One set of results for each sub account of SAP Cloud Connector.

Configurable parameters for the test

Parameter

Description

Test period

How often should the test be executed.

Host

Specify the host for which the test is to be configured.

Port

Specify the port at which the specified host listens to. Default port is 8443.

SSL

By default, the SAP Cloud Connector is SSL-enabled. Accordingly, the SSL flag is set to Yes by default. This indicates that the eG agent will communicate with the SAP Cloud Connector via HTTPS by default.

Username

User ID should have login access, read applications, read spaces and read organization. So, create new User ID and set user role as Administrator or Monitoring. For details on user authentication and roles refer to How does eG Enterprise Monitor SAP Cloud Connector?

Password

The password of the specified user ID.

Confirm Password

Confirm the password by retyping it here.

DD Frequency

The DD FREQUENCY refers to the frequency with which detailed diagnosis measures are to be generated for this test. The default is 1:1. This indicates that, by default, detailed measures will be generated every time this test runs, and every time the test detects a problem. You can modify this frequency, if you so desire. Also, if you intend to disable the detailed diagnosis capability for this test, you can do so by specifying none against this parameter.

Detailed Diagnoses

To make diagnosis more efficient and accurate, the eG Enterprise embeds an optional detailed diagnostic capability. With this capability, the eG agents can be configured to run detailed, more elaborate tests as and when specific problems are detected. To enable the detailed diagnosis capability of this test for a particular server, choose the On option. To disable the capability, click on the Off option.

The option to selectively enable/disable the detailed diagnosis capability will be available only if the following conditions are fulfilled:

  • The eG manager license should allow the detailed diagnosis capability
  • Both the normal and abnormal frequencies configured for the detailed diagnosis measures should not be 0.
