LiveCache Monitoring (LC10)

In a liveCache application (such as an APO system), you should not just analyze the application at regular intervals, but also liveCache itself, to detect and avoid bottlenecks. The following problems in the liveCache environment can cause bottlenecks:
· Unsuitable hardware
· Incorrectly configured memory areas
· Algorithm errors in the DB procedures or the liveCache kernel
· Unsuitable parameter settings
Use the functions of the Computing Center Management System (CCMS) in the SAP system to monitor liveCache. The CCMS provides you with the following tools:
· liveCache Assistant
· liveCache Alert Monitor

In the user menu, choose liveCache Assistant (transaction LC10).
Enter the name of the database connection. You can predefine the name of a database connection with a default value. This name appears when you start the liveCache Assistant for the first time. If you call the liveCache Assistant again in a database session, the name of the last used database connection is always displayed.
You can choose between the following functions:
· Integration
· liveCache: Monitoring
· liveCache: Console
· liveCache: Alert Monitor
