1 Installation Overview
This document covers the installation and configuration of Introscope in the following
chapters:
• Installation Overview
• Upgrading previous versions to Introscope 8
• Installing Introscope Enterprise Manager
• Introscope-enabling SAP J2EE Systems (Agent Installation)
• Optional: Installing Introscope Workstation
• Environment Performance Agent (De)installation
• Optional Configuration Steps

Introscope Overview
Introscope is an application management solution created to manage Java Application
performance. Unlike development tools, Introscope is designed to scale with minimal
performance impact. This allows you to monitor and manage your application performance
in live production environments.
The Right to View (RTV) version of CA-Wily Introscope is a restricted, read-only form of the
full product and is bundled with SAP Solution Manager. With the RTV version, support is
limited to products that are licensed and supported by SAP. The instrumentation,
dashboards, Probe Builder Directives (PBD’s), management modules, and Smartstor data
contained within the RTV version of CA-Wily Introscope as provided by SAP is the
intellectual property of SAP. Use of these functions is restricted by SAP and may only be
used in an unrestricted manner by licensing SAP Extended Diagnostics by CA-Wily from
SAP.

Reviewing the Installation and Configuration Process

You will be installing the following Introscope components:
• Introscope Enterprise Manager (server component)
The Enterprise Manager is typically installed on the Solution Manager host.
Alternatively, you can install the Enterprise Manager on a separate host.
The memory and CPU requirements for the Enterprise Manager depend on the
number of Introscope Agents that you connect and on the complexity of the
monitored systems. Typically, for up to ten agents, the default configuration using
512MB Java heap (about 1GB main memory) will suffice. For about twenty
additional agents, add 512MB of Java heap to a total of 1024MB (allow 2GB main
memory). More details on Enterprise Manager Sizing and self-monitoring can be
found in the FAQ attached to SAP Note 797147.
• Introscope Java Agent (on the managed systems)
The setup of the Java agent is typically done centrally via a setup UI in Solution
Manager Diagnostics. Only in exceptional cases manual installation is necessary, as
described below. After activation by restarting the Java VM, the agent runs within
the Java process of the monitored system.
• Host-Level Introscope Agent (on the managed systems)
The so-called Introscope Host Agent is installed once per host. It runs as part of the
SMDAgent in the SMDAgent process to collect data on operating system level, e.g.,
from saposcol, GC logs, ABAP instances, and TREX. The Host Agent generates less
load on the Enterprise Manager than a normal agent. For this reason, it should not
be included in the memory sizing calculation above. The Host agent is configured
automatically by the SMD setup wizard for managed systems.
In previous releases, the Introscope Environment Performance Agent (EPAgent)
took the role of the host-level agent. The EPAgent is now replaced by the host-level
agent. The EPAgent is not supported any more.
• Optionally, you can install the Introscope Workstation on the Enterprise
Manager host or any client PC. See the next section for recommendations about the
UI for Introscope.

Deciding About the UI for Introscope

There are three different options to access Introscope:
1. Introscope Workstation: Swing-based client user interface, full functionality
a. Explicit installation on the client PC on which you want to use it (see Chapter
5).
b. Use Java WebStart to download the Workstation on demand from the
Enterprise Manager. No explicit installation of the Workstation is necessary.
Requires Java 5 to be installed, default URL:
http://emhost:8081/workstation. The workstation will be downloaded only
once and is then cached on the client PC. For every new start of the
Workstation the cached version is checked against the Enterprise Manager

Introscope® Version 8 Installation Guide for SAP (5/3/2010) Page

4
 Introscope Installation for SAP

and, if the Enterprise Manager was updated, a new version is downloaded

automatically.
2. Introscope WebView: Browser-based user interface, uses the Microsoft Silverlight
browser plugin. In some details limited functionality.
WebView is available by default on the Enterprise Manager (no installation
necessary), default URL: http://emhost:8081/webview.
In general using the Workstation should be preferred to WebView since it is more powerful.
The most convenient option is to use 1b (Launch Workstation via Java Webstart). The
binaries are then only downloaded once and after that cached on the client PC. You may
also decide to install the workstation explicitly on your client PC (1a).

Introscope Access
After installation, you can use the following default credentials to access Introscope:

User Password Access Rights

Admin Admin89 read, run_tracer

Guest guest12 read

Furthermore, you can add live_agent_control and historical_agent_control
permissions to the Admin user if you want. Please refer to the User Management section in
Chapter 7 for details.

Download Third-Party External Component Package from CA Wily

The Introscope 8.2.2 installer requires third-party external component package files.
Before starting an installation or upgrade, you must download these files to your network.
To download the third-party external component package files:
1. Go to http://opensrcd.ca.com/ips/osgi/
2. Download the following files from the subdirectory for current release (introscope
8.2.2):
eula.txt
The osgiPackages archive appropriate for your system:
o osgiPackages.v1.2.windows.zip, for a Windows system
o osgiPackages.v1.2.unix.tar, for a UNIX system (including IBM i)
Save the files in the same directory as the Introscope installer executable. The installer will
then automatically locate this file during the installation process.
Note: The installer does not validate whether you have downloaded the correct
archive for your platform. Be sure you download and specify the correct archive
for your platform.

Download the Latest Updates from the Service Marketplace

Download all files listed in SAP Note 797147 from the SAP Service Marketplace. The note
explains the exact locations of the files.

Installation Tools
Details on the used installation tools (sapcar and SDM) can be found in the “Support
Package Stack Guide”: http://service.sap.com/instguidesNW04 -> Operations

2 Upgrading from Previous

Versions to Introscope 8
This chapter explains the options to upgrade an Introscope installation to Introscope 8. If
you are performing a fresh installation, please proceed to the next chapter.

Version Compatibility and Upgrade Sequence

The Introscope Enterprise Manager supports Introscope Agents of older releases. In other
words, you can connect with agents of different versions (e.g. version 5, 6, 7.x) to
Enterprise Manager Version 8 at the same time. Connecting a new version 8 agent to an
older Enterprise Manager does not work.
WebView, Workstation, and Enterprise Manager must always have the same version and
patch level. Connecting WebView and Enterprise Manager of different versions does not
work.
When using older agents with a newer Enterprise Manager, some charts on the Console
may remain empty because the SAP customizing assumes that Agents and Enterprise
Manager have the same version.

Due to this version dependency we recommend to upgrade sequence:

1. Upgrade Enterprise Manager and Workstation first. This can be done without impact
on any monitored systems. Since WebView is running as part of the Enterprise
Manager an explicit upgrade of WebView is not needed.
2. Then upgrade the Introscope agents in the monitored systems at your convenience.
Upgrading the agents will require a restart of the monitored systems.

Enterprise Manager Upgrade

There is no tool support for an in-place upgrade of the Enterprise Manager. If you want to
keep the performance database (SmartStor) of the previous version or any other
configuration settings and if you want to keep the old location, the following procedure is
recommended:
• Shut down the Enterprise Manager via the Windows Services Control Panel or kill on
Unix.
• Back up your Enterprise Manager directory, e.g.
/usr/sap/ccms/wilyintroscope. If you want to keep the historical
performance data, move the directories /data and /traces to a new location in the
filesystem.
• Windows only: Launch the uninstaller via the Windows Start Menu, e.g. Introscope
7.1 Uninstall Introscope

Introscope® Version 8 Installation Guide for SAP (5/3/2010) Page

7
 Introscope Installation for SAP

• Move the remaining files from the old installation to a different location, e.g. from
/usr/sap/ccms/wilyintroscope to /usr/sap/ccms/wilyintroscope.old
• Perform the new installation to the same directory
(/usr/sap/ccms/wilyintroscope) again using the procedure described in the
next section. Make sure you also extract the new management modules files
(SAPISMM*.SAR) as described in the next section.
• Shut down the newly installed Enterprise Manager in case it was launched after the
installation.
• Remove the subdirectories /data and /traces from the new installation if they
exist. They will only be created if the Enterprise Manager is started.
• Copy or move the old subdirectories /data and /traces to the new location. Be
aware that the traces database will be migrated to a new format when the
Enterprise Manager is launched. As an alternative, you may also decide to drop the
/traces directory completely instead of migrating it.
• Manually transfer any custom management modules (located in
/config/modules) from the old to the new location. But do not overwrite newly
installed standard SAP modules with older versions.
• Manually transfer any customization (Java VM parameter in file Introscope
Enterprise Manager.lax or EMService.conf or runem.nohup.sh, other
properties in file config/IntroscopeEnterpriseManager.properties). Do
not replace the new configuration files with the old copies since you may then loose
any newly introduced properties. Instead, copy and paste any customization from
your old files.

Agent Upgrade
All agent installations and upgrades can (and should) be done centrally by the
administration tools of Solution Manager. The only manual steps are to restart the
managed systems after any configuration change and to undeploy the JmxService J2EE
application (com.wilytech.jmxservice), which is no longer needed.
In case you want to do a manual upgrade, to get rid of any obsolete files we recommend
performing a fresh installation, e.g. by moving the old agent installation to a different
directory. Since some agent files are locked while the monitored system is running, the
monitored system must be down for the agent upgrade.
Also for the manual upgrade, the JmxService J2EE application is no longer needed starting
with release 7.1p9 of the Introscope agent. Please undeploy the old version with SDM.

WebView Upgrade
Starting with Introscope 7.1 the Enterprise Manager already contains an embedded
WebView that is run as part of the Enterprise Manager Java process. It is no longer
necessary to deploy it on NetWeaver, and support for deploying WebView on Netweaver is
stopped as of Introscope release 7.2. You should undeploy the old version of WebView on
NetWeaver (com.wilytech.webview). WebView running in the Enterprise Manager is by

default reached via the URL http://emhost:8081/webview. The former URL

http://smdhost:5xx00/webview is no longer valid for this operating mode.

3 Installing the Introscope

Enterprise Manager
To install the Introscope Enterprise Manager, you will run the installer file and add some
SAP customization (management modules, scripts, etc.).

Installation User
You should run the installer with the same user account that will be used later on for
running the Enterprise Manager. In particular, on Unix operating systems do not use the
root account to launch the installer. A common best practice is to use the sidadm user of
the Solution Manager installation to install and run the Enterprise Manager.

Choose the Enterprise Manager Installer File

Depending on the operating system on which you want to install the Enterprise Manager,
different installation files must be chosen. The first table below lists the platforms for which
a platform specific installer with a bundled Java VM is available. If you find your operating
system listed here, download the file SAPISEM*.SAR from the corresponding folder on the
Service Marketplace (see Note 797147 for the exact location). The file names listed below
may vary slightly for patch updates to the Enterprise Manager.

* For Solaris SPARC and HPUX on PA RISC only 32-bit installers are available. If you want
to run the Enterprise Manager on a 64 Java VM, you can exchange the Java VM after the
installation. See below for details. Note, however, that you will not see any benefit from
switching to a 64-bit VM unless you have to extend the Java heap (-Xmx) to a value that is
not possible with a 32-bit VM – just the opposite: When switching to a 64 bit VM the same
EM configuration will have less capacity than before due to the 64-bit intrinsic overhead.

Platform Independent Introscope Installer

If you do not find your operating system in the table above, you can use the generic
installer for the operating systems listed below. Installation includes one additional step
then:
1. Install a Java 5 VM
2. Launch the OS-independent installer
The operating system independent installer is contained in the file SAPISEM*.SAR of the
folder #OS independent on the Service Marketplace.

Extract the Introscope Installer

Extract the SAR file with the following command:
SAPCAR –xvf SAPISEM*.SAR
As a result you will find two files: The file installer.properties which configures the
installation procedure and one of the installer files mentioned above, depending on your
platform.
The Introscope installer will perform an automated install of Introscope components. The
Introscope installer is invoked from the command line and runs “silently”, getting its input
from the response file installer.properties. The installer runs in the background as it
installs Introscope components, and doesn’t provide any feedback.
After installation, you can check the results in the installer logs.
When launching the installer, make sure the installer.properties file is in the same
directory as the .exe / .bin / .jar file! If the installer.properties file does not exist, you
will get an graphical installation wizard.

Optional: Configuring the Installation Directory

The installation of the Enterprise Manager by default goes to the following directories:
• Windows: C:\usr\sap\ccms\wilyintroscope
• Unix / IBM i: /usr/sap/ccms/wilyintroscope

If you want to change this directory, e.g., because your SAP installation is located on a
different Windows drive, use one of the following alternatives.
Note: Use slash (/) as path separator for all platforms, including Windows!

Alternative 1: Set the Installation Directory via Command Line Option

1. Open a command prompt and go to the directory where the installer file and the file
installer.properties are located.

2. Add the option –DUSER_INSTALL_DIR=<installation directory> to the invocation of

the installer (see below), .e.g.,

Introscope® Version 8 Installation Guide for SAP (5/3/2010) Page

12
 Introscope Installation for SAP

introscope8.2.2.0windows.SAP.exe
–DUSER_INSTALL_DIR=d:/usr/sap/ccms/wilyintroscope.

Alternative 2: Edit installer.properties

1. Open the file installer.properties in a text editor.

2. Locate the USER_INSTALL_DIR property.

To change the install directory location, enter the desired location in the
USER_INSTALL_DIR property.

Note: The instructions in this guide will use examples relative to the default
installation directory.

Add the External Component Package

Copy the External Component Package
Copy the two files that you downloaded from CA Wily’s FTP server to the directory which
contains the installer (see Chapter 1, Download Third-Party External Component
Package from CA Wily). The following files should be copied:
eula.txt
The osgiPackages archive appropriate for your system:
o osgiPackages.v1.windows.zip, for a Windows system

o osgiPackages.v1.unix.tar, for a UNIX system (including IBM i)

Accept the License

Open the file eula.txt in a text editor, read the license, and modify the last line to read
LGPL=accept. If the license is not accepted installation will fail.

Start the Installer

1. Launch the installer for your platform using the appropriate command:
• For Windows, double-click on the introscope8.2.2.0windows.SAP.exe, or
launch from command-line with the following command:
Introscope8.2.2.0windows.SAP.exe
• For any other platform-dependent installer, use the command in the following
example. You may have to set the right permission before you can launch the
installation:
./introscope8.2.2.0solaris.SAP.bin
• For the IBM i installer you first need to determine the JDK that you will be using.
Wily introscope requires a JDK 5. Depending on the operating system version you
are using you should prefer IBM IT4J (J9) over the IBM Classic JVM. Here is a list of

Introscope® Version 8 Installation Guide for SAP (5/3/2010) Page

13
 Introscope Installation for SAP

the JAVA_HOME directories and the according IBM I product options that need to be
installed:
IBM i 6.1: /QOpenSys/QIBM/ProdData/JavaVM/jdk50/64bit/jre (5761JV1 Opt. 9)
i5/OS V5R4: /QOpenSys/QIBM/ProdData/JavaVM/jdk50/32bit/jre (5722JV1 Opt.
8)
i5/OS V5R3: /QIBM/ProdData/Java400/jdk15 (5722JV1 Opt. 7)
Then, run the following command in QSH:
<JAVA_HOME>/bin/java –Djava.version=1.5 –classpath
introscope8.2.2.0os400SAP.jar install
• For the platform independent installer that does not contain a bundled Java VM use
the following command. /some/path/java refers to the Java 5 VM that you
installed as described above:
/some/path/java –classpath introscope8.2.2.0otherUnixSAP.jar install

Note: In any case, the configuration file installer.properties must be located in

the current directory where you launch the installer. You can avoid copying the
installation file itself by using the complete path to the executable.
2. Verify installation using instructions in the following section, Verifying Installation.

Verifying Installation
The installer does not give confirmation of successful installation on the console. To
confirm installation was successful:
1. Verify that the Introscope directory exists at:
• <drive>:\usr\sap\ccms\wilyintroscope (Windows)
• /usr/sap/ccms/wilyintroscope (Unix, IBM i)

OR the location you specified.

2. Open the file,

/usr/sap/ccms/wilyintroscope/install/Introscope_<version>_InstallL
og.log.
3. Verify that the following lines appear in the file:

Summary
-------

Installation: Successful.

384 Successes
0 Warnings
0 NonFatalErrors
0 FatalErrors
Note: The number of successes may be different than what is shown in this example.

Adapt Java VM and Java VM Parameters

Depending on the startup mode the Java VM and the Java VM parameters are adapted in
different locations:
EMService.conf: Used when Enterprise Manager is running as Windows Service on
Windows platforms. The property wrapper.java.command defines the Java VM to
use. Increase the value of adapt wrapper.java.maxmemory to increase the Java
heap (corresponds to –Xmx).
Introscope_Enterprise_Manager.lax: Enterprise Manager launched with script
Introscope_Enterprise_Manager (typically only on Unix). Adapt
lax.nl.current.vm to the full path of the VM to use (if you want to change the
default) and use lax.nl.java.option.additional to modify Java VM
parameters.
runem.sh: Used when Enterprise Manager is launched on IBM i. Adapt the JVM_ARGS
environment variable.
The following Java VM parameter changes should be considered:
Increase the heap size (–Xmx) of the Enterprise Manager if you have more than
~10 agents.

Enter the absolute path to a Java 5 VM if you want to use a Java VM that is not
bundled with the installer. In particular, you have to do this in two cases:
o Enter the path of a separately installed 64 bit Java 5 VM for platforms on
which by default only a 32 bit VM is provided:

Solaris on SPARC
HPUX on PA RISC
o Enter the path of a separately installed Java 5 VM for platforms where you
used the platform independent installer.
Set the Java VM parameter –Djava.awt.headless=true for all platforms.
Otherwise, the Enterprise Manager will need an X server, i.e., the DISPLAY
environment variable must point to a valid X Windows server.
Set the Java VM parameter –Dswing.volatileImageBufferEnabled=false for all
platforms based on the Sun VM in case you see display problems with WebView.
On IBM i, set the Java heap size properties based on the JVM
o IT4J (J9): -Xms512m -Xmx512m
o IBM Classic: -Xms64m -Xmx2048m

Add the following parameters: -verbose:gc -Djava.version=1.5

 Introscope Installation for SAP

Install the SAP Management Modules

Extract the file SAPISMM*.SAR in the home directory of the Enterprise Manager installation,
e.g., /usr/sap/ccms/wilyintroscope.

Example:
cd /usr/sap/ccms/wilyintroscope
SAPCAR –xvf SAPISMM*.SAR
As a result you will find one or more .jar files in the subdirectory config/modules,
some .js files in the subdirectory scripts, and some other files distributed over the
Enterprise Manager installation.
The newly installed management modules only become active after the Enterprise
Manager is (re-)started. For Windows installations the Enterprise Manager is typically
automatically launched as Windows Service. This means you will have to restart the
Windows Service for the Enterprise Manager.

Launch Enterprise Manager as Windows Service

To launch the Enterprise Manager automatically at system restart, it is registered as
Windows service (On Unix you should run it as background process). To check, perform the
following:
1. Open the Services Control Panel (Start Menu Control Panel Administrative Tools
Services) and check that the service “Introscope Enterprise Manager” has been
created.
2. Start the service if it is not yet running.

Running the Enterprise Manager on UNIX

On Unix platforms a shell script is provided to start and stop the Introscope Enterprise
Manager.
1. Go to the subdirectory /bin of the Enterprise Manager installation and issue the
following command to launch the Enterprise Manager. Make sure to use the correct user
account when launching the EM:
./EMCtrl.sh start
The shell script launches the Enterprise Manager in background mode (via nohup). It is not
necessary to explicitly use nohup for EMCtrl.sh.
Consider launching the Enterprise Manager automatically at system startup. Typically, you
will have to hook it into one of the operating system specific init scripts.

Running the Enterprise Manager on IBM i

It is recommended to create an own subsystem for running the Wily Introscope Enterprise
Manager on IBM i.

Introscope® Version 8 Installation Guide for SAP (5/3/2010) Page

16
 Introscope Installation for SAP

To set this up, you have to run a set of commands. This should be done ideally as the user
that the Wily Introscope Enterprise Manager will run under. If this user is not authorized for
some commands, do run the commands as user that is authorized (e.g. QSECOFR) and
change the ownership of the created objects afterwards.

This is what needs to be done:

CRTLIB LIB(WILYEM) TEXT('Wily EM library')
CRTJOBQ JOBQ(WILYEM/WILYJOBQ) TEXT('Wily EM job queue')
CRTJOBD JOBD(WILYEM/WILYJOBD) JOBQ(WILYEM/WILYJOBQ) TEXT('Wily EM job
description') USER(<Your User>) RQSDTA('QSH CMD(''cd
/usr/sap/ccms/wilyintroscope/bin && ./EMCtrl.sh start'')')
CRTCLS CLS(WILYEM/WILYCLS) TEXT('Wily EM job class')
CRTSBSD SBSD(WILYEM/WILYSBS) POOLS((1 *BASE)) TEXT('Wily EM subsystem')
ADDRTGE SBSD(WILYEM/WILYSBS) SEQNBR(1) CMPVAL(*ANY) PGM(QSYS/QCMD)
POOLID(1) CLS(WILYEM/WILYCLS)
ADDJOBQE SBSD(WILYEM/WILYSBS) JOBQ(WILYEM/WILYJOBQ) MAXACT(*NOMAX)
ADDAJE SBSD(WILYEM/WILYSBS) JOB(WILYEM) JOBD(WILYEM/WILYJOBD)

If you can not run the commands as the Wily EM user, you have to change
ownerships by executing the following commands:
CHGOBJOWN OBJ(WILYEM) OBJTYPE(*LIB) NEWOWN(<Your User>)
CHGOBJOWN OBJ(WILYEM/WILYJOBQ) OBJTYPE(*JOBQ) NEWOWN(<Your User>)
CHGOBJOWN OBJ(WILYEM/WILYJOBD) OBJTYPE(*JOBD) NEWOWN(<Your User>)
CHGOBJOWN OBJ(WILYEM/WILYCLS) OBJTYPE(*CLS) NEWOWN(<Your User>)
CHGOBJOWN OBJ(WILYEM/WILYSBS) OBJTYPE(*SBSD) NEWOWN(<Your User>)

<Your User> can be any user, for example the <SID>ADM of your Solution Manager
system. This user needs to have access to the files in /usr/sap/ccms/wilyintroscope.
You can ensure this by running
chown –R <Your User> /usr/sap/ccms/wilyintroscope
in QSHELL or QP2TERM.

To activate the Wily Enterprise Manager at system startup, you need to add the start of
subsystem WILYEM/WILYSBS to your startup program (QSTRUP).

Introscope® Version 8 Installation Guide for SAP (5/3/2010) Page

 Introscope Installation for SAP

For controlling (starting/stopping) the Wily Enterprise Manager you can use the EMCtrl.sh
script as in Unix. However, be aware that the Wily Enterprise Manager job will run in your
current subsystem if you start it from a shell with “EMCtrl.sh start”.

Check That Introscope Is Running Properly

After you have launched the Enterprise Manager, check that it is running properly.
1. Locate the Enterprise Manager log at <Introscope
home>/logs/IntroscopeEnterpriseManager.log.
2. Check that the Enterprise Manager has started. Look for the following line in the
logfile:

03/28/10 10:54:36 AM CET [INFO] [Manager] Introscope Enterprise

Manager started.

3. Check the TCP port that Introscope Enterprise Manager is using for agent connections.
Look for lines similar to the following in the logfile:

[INFO] [Manager.PostOfficeHub] Server listening for incoming default

socket connections on port 6001

In this case, the Enterprise Manager agent port is 6001 (default value).

4 Introscope-Enabling SAP J2EE

Systems
After you have installed the Enterprise Manager, you are ready to install and configure the
Introscope Agent and Introscope-enable your Java Applications.

Note: The recommended procedure to install and customize the

Introscope Agent is to use the setup wizard provided in Solution
Manager Diagnostics. If you do not have Solution Manager
Diagnostics available follow the manual procedure described in the
second section of this chapter below.

Automated Installation of the Introscope Agent via SMD

The Solution Manager Diagnostics provides an application that performs the setup of the
Introscope bytecode agent for Java automatically. This section explains the steps to run
the setup. Before you can run the Introscope agent setup, the setup wizard for the
managed system must have been executed.
1. Enable Maintenance Mode on SMD.
2. Deploy ISAGENTSMD*.SCA using SDM.
3. Disable Maintenance Mode on SMD.
4. Launch the Introscope Setup application: Diagnostics Setup Managed Systems
Introscope Agent. Your screen will look similar to the image below:

Introscope® Version 8 Installation Guide for SAP (5/3/2010) Page

19
 Introscope Installation for SAP

5. Check the Enterprise Manager Settings at the top of the screen. These are the
connection parameters that will be used by the agent to connect to the Enterprise
Manager.

6. In the pane Introscope Agent Setttings, select the system that you want to instrument
with the agent. Check “select all” and click “Retrieve Current Settings”. This will display
the current status of the agent setup.
7. To initially setup or update the agents, click Setup Introscope Agent …. This will open
the setup dialog as shown below. Select the desired agent version (by default only one
available) and choose the profile. Next, check the desired instrumentation areas, and,
in the case of AIX, review the AIX settings to match your environment (J9 or classic
mode).
8. Finally, hit Apply to perform the necessary changes in the agent configuration. Agent
config files will be adapted, an Autoprobe connector will be created if necessary, and
the Java VM parameters will be set as required for the managed system.

Introscope® Version 8 Installation Guide for SAP (5/3/2010) Page

20
 Introscope Installation for SAP

9. For Netweaver 7.1: You may see a dialog asking to manually set the JVM parameters
via the ConfigTool. Use the Configtool to set the parameters as described. For
Netweaver 7.11, this dialog should not show up.
10. If the setup was successful, restart the managed system at your convenience, e.g. in
the next maintenance window. After the restart, the agent will be active and should
show up in the Introscope UIs.

Manual Installation of the Introscope Agent

This section describes the manual configuration of Introscope bytecode agent for Java.
These steps are only required if the automated installation, described in the previous

Introscope® Version 8 Installation Guide for SAP (5/3/2010) Page

21
 Introscope Installation for SAP

section, could not be applied. The following instructions are valid for SAP J2EE versions
6.20, 6.40, 7.00, and 7.10 and higher.
The instructions in the following section work on both Windows and Unix systems, but the
examples show Windows convention (backslashes in the paths).
Note: Always use forward slashes (/) as path separators for Introscope config files and for
JVM parameters on all platforms including Windows. This avoids the need to escape
the Windows path separator backslash (\) by doubling it.

The following steps are required to install and configure the Introscope Agent to report
information to the Enterprise Manager:
1. Extract the Introscope Agent files
2. Create the Introscope Agent autoprobe connector (not for IBM i Classic VM and Java
5)
3. Introscope-enable the application code by setting Java VM parameters

Extract the Introscope Agent

To install the Introscope Agent:

1. Extract the agent installer file into the NetWeaver CCMS directory, usually:
<drive>:\usr\sap\ccms.
SAPCAR –xvf ISAGENTSTD*.SAR
2. Confirm the Agent was installed correctly by checking for the existence of the /wily
directory in the <drive>:\usr\sap\ccms directory.

Configuring Introscope Agent Settings

The following section details how to configure the Introscope Agent. The Agent
configuration settings are found by default in the file
/usr/sap/ccms/wily/IntroscopeAgent.profile. This guide will refer to the
IntroscopeAgent.profile file as the Agent profile. Note that this file contains
SAP-specific customization. Furthermore, depending on the monitored solution you need
to choose different profiles:

Choose the Right Agent Profile

SAP provides two agent profiles for different use cases. For all applications running on the
SAP J2EE Engine use IntroscopeAgent.profile. The second profile
IntroscopeAgent_ipc.profile is intended for SAP IPC 4.0. All profiles adhere to the
name pattern IntroscopeAgent*.profile. Note that the profile names have changed
starting with the 7.2.2.0 (72_02) release:

Introscope® Version 8 Installation Guide for SAP (5/3/2010) Page

22
 Introscope Installation for SAP

File Name Applications Covered

IntroscopeAgent.profile SAP Netweaver (Java stack)
IntroscopeAgent_ipc.profile SAP IPC (IPC 4.0 only, not VMC)

Note: For Introscope-enabling SAP IPC, please also check SAP Note 886600.

You will need to configure the host name or IP address and port of the machine where the
Enterprise Manager resides.
To configure the Introscope Agent:
1. Open the agent profile, e.g. file
<drive>:\usr\sap\ccms\wily\IntroscopeAgent.profile.

2. Locate the property,

introscope.agent.enterprisemanager.transport.tcp.host.DEFAULT.

Enter either the host name or IP address of the machine where Enterprise Manager
resides.
3. Locate the property,
introscope.agent.enterprisemanager.transport.tcp.port.DEFAULT.

The value should be the port on which the Enterprise Manager listens for Agent
connections.
Default setting is 6001.

4. Save changes to the agent profile.

Choose the Right Instrumentation Packages

The instrumentation is split into several JAR packages. You can customize the list of
packages by modifying the property introscope.autoprobe.directivesFile. By default,
the following packages are active:
introscope.autoprobe.directivesFile=sap_typical.jar,sap_ep.jar,sap_xi_typic
al.jar,sap_ep_iviews.jar

This instrumentation covers standard SAP J2EE (e.g. Servlets, database/JDBC, JCO/RFC,
web services, user management, etc.), Portal, and XI functionality. There are additional
instrumentation sections which are not active by default. You can add entries to the
property, separated by comma:

sap_sapvm.jar SAP J2EE 7.10 and JDK5 specific

instrumentation, e.g. memory
allocation. Do not activate for Java
1.4!

Introscope® Version 8 Installation Guide for SAP (5/3/2010) Page

23
 Introscope Installation for SAP

sap_ep_iviews_rolename.jar Re-activate metrics for each

iView/rolename combination. Activate
only one of these 2:
sap_ep_iviews.jar or
sap_ep_iviews_rolename.jar!
sap_duet.jar SAP Duet specific instrumentation
sap_smd.jar Solution Manager self-monitoring
sap_partner.jar Instrumentation for SAP partner and
acquisition products
- GRC
- Redwood CPS
- …

Check the Agent Log File Location

By default, the Introscope agents write log files to the subdirectory logs of the agent
installation (e.g. /usr/sap/ccms/wily/logs). On Unix systems, make sure that the
monitored systems (user sidadm) have read and write access to this directory (write
permission for group sapsys). As an alternative, you can change the properties
introscope.autoprobe.logfile and log4j.appender.logfile.File to some other
directories where the monitored systems have write access.

Configuring JVM AutoProbe

You have to create a so-called AutoProbe connector that fits for the Java VM that you use.
This step is not required for Java 5 VMs and not for an IBM Classic Java VM running on IBM
i Instead, different VM parameters are used for these platforms.

Important Note: You should re-create the AutoProbe connector every

time you update the JVM that is used for the SAP J2EE nodes, even if you
just change the patch level, e.g., from 1.4.2_04 to 1.4.2_05! For this
reason it is also important that you specify exactly the same JVM that is
actually used by the SAP J2EE nodes.
The following section details how to configure JVM AutoProbe.
For AIX with the IBM J9 Hybrid VM please see SAP Note 1015184—there are special
parameters to pass when creating the autoprobe connector and when launching the VM.
For Linux with the IBM J9 Hybrid VM please see SAP Note 1149214.

Creating an AutoProbe Connector

Use the CreateAutoProbeConnector.jar tool to create a connector specific to the JVM
used to run the application server. There are two ways to specify the JVM:

Introscope® Version 8 Installation Guide for SAP (5/3/2010) Page

24
 Introscope Installation for SAP

• use the JVM that is running the tool

• pass the JVM directory on the command line to the tool
1. Change the working directory to wily\connectors.

2. Run the Create AutoProbe Connector tool using the following command:
• Make sure to specify exactly the JVM that is used for launching the J2EE node by
passing the JVM directory <java_home> on the command line:

java -jar CreateAutoProbeConnector.jar -jvm <java_home> -output

connector.jar

Example:

java -jar CreateAutoProbeConnector.jar -jvm C:/soft/jdk14 -output

connector.jar

3. The output is the file connector.jar in the same directory.

Activating the Agent: Set Java VM Parameters

After you have created the AutoProbe Connector, you must add three Java VM options.
Typically, you will only want to activate the agent on the SAP J2EE server nodes, not on
dispatchers and state controllers.
Note that for class path and directory paths, you can use forward slashes (/) on all
platforms, even on Windows. For SAP J2EE 6.40, you even cannot use backslash (\) on
Windows. Furthermore, note the difference between Unix and Windows in the class path:
The entries are separated by ; on Windows, but by : on Unix.

Agent Name

You should assign a unique name to each SAP J2EE node that is Introscope-enabled. This
so-called agent name is assigned by an additional Java VM option (referred to as
<AgentName> below). SAP suggests the following naming convention for the agent name.
This is also generated by the automated setup via Solution Manager Diagnostics starting
with SP14:
<AgentName>=SID_Instance_Nodename
Where the placeholder mean the following:

Placeholder Explanation Example

SID SystemID EPP, EPQ, EPD

Instance Name of the instance JC00, J01, DVEBMGS00

Nodename J2EE node name / directory server0

Introscope® Version 8 Installation Guide for SAP (5/3/2010) Page

25
 Introscope Installation for SAP

Note: It is not necessary to integrate the host name into the agent name, since the host
name is assigned automatically to the agent.
Using a unique naming convention for all agent installations helps to group agents that
belong to the same installation together.

Set Java VM Parameters for SAP J2EE 6.20

The procedure to add JVM options depends on the startup method for the J2EE nodes.
Check SAP Note 697062 for instructions to set JVM options for your specific startup
method. The following procedure is an example in case you use SAP J2EE startup
framework for J2EE 6.20:
1. Open the file:

<drive>:\usr\sap\<J2EE_ENGINE_ID>\j2ee\j2ee_<INSTANCE>\configtool\servi
ce.ini

2. Append the following commands to JavaParameters (Windows example):

-Xbootclasspath/p:<drive>:/usr/sap/ccms/wily/connectors/connector.jar;<
drive>:/usr/sap/ccms/wily/Agent.jar
-Dcom.wily.introscope.agentProfile=<drive>:/usr/sap/ccms/wily/Introscop
eAgent.profile
-Dcom.wily.introscope.agent.agentName=<AgentName>

Unix example:

-Xbootclasspath/p:/usr/sap/ccms/wily/connectors/connector.jar:/usr/sap/
ccms/wily/Agent.jar
-Dcom.wily.introscope.agentProfile=/usr/sap/ccms/wily/IntroscopeAgent.p
rofile
-Dcom.wily.introscope.agent.agentName=<AgentName>

3. Restart SAP server.

Set Java VM Parameters for NetWeaver 04 / SAP J2EE 6.40 and

Netweaver2004s / SAP J2EE 7.00

1. Run the SAP J2EE Configtool.

2. Select the server to modify.

Introscope® Version 8 Installation Guide for SAP (5/3/2010) Page

26
 Introscope Installation for SAP

3. In the Java Parameters field, add the following new java parameters (Windows
example):
-Xbootclasspath/p:<drive>:/usr/sap/ccms/wily/connectors/connector.jar;<
drive>:/usr/sap/ccms/wily/Agent.jar
-Dcom.wily.introscope.agentProfile=<drive>:/usr/sap/ccms/wily/Introscop
eAgent.profile
-Dcom.wily.introscope.agent.agentName=<AgentName>

Note: Note that for NetWeaver 6.40 on Windows, the slashes for these java
parameters must go forwards.

Unix example:

-Xbootclasspath/p:/usr/sap/ccms/wily/connectors/connector.jar:
/usr/sap/ccms/wily/Agent.jar
-Dcom.wily.introscope.agentProfile=/usr/sap/ccms/wily/IntroscopeAgent.p
rofile
-Dcom.wily.introscope.agent.agentName=<AgentName>

IBM i Classic VM example:

-Xbootclasspath/p:/QIBM/ProdData/Java400/jdk14/lib/instrumentation.jar:
/usr/sap/ccms/wily/Agent.jar
-agentlib:QJVAIAGENT=/usr/sap/ccms/wily/Agent.jar
-Dos400.jvmti.force.jitc
-Dcom.wily.introscope.agentProfile=/usr/sap/ccms/wily/IntroscopeAgent.p
rofile
-Dcom.wily.introscope.agent.agentName=<AgentName>

4. Click the disk button to save.

5. Repeat steps 2 - 4 for each server node.

6. Restart the SAP instance.

7. To verify that Config tool changes were made, open the file:

<drive>:\usr\sap\<SID>\<instance>\j2ee\cluster\instance.properties

8. Check for a line beginning with ID<server_id>.JavaParameters, and see if it

contains the lines you entered in the step above.

Set Java VM Parameters for NetWeaver versions based on the Java

5 VM (Netweaver 7.10 and up, Netweaver CE)

For Netweaver 7.1 and up there are no node-specific Java VM parameters. For this reason,
the nodename part of the agent name must be calculated dynamically by using the variable

Introscope® Version 8 Installation Guide for SAP (5/3/2010) Page

27
 Introscope Installation for SAP

$[elem/Name]. At run time, this will be filled in with the node name. In the example below,
variables are also used for the SID and the instance name. They will be replaced
automatically if you use the string exactly as written below.

Example: Enter ${SYSTEM_NAME}_${INSTANCE_NAME}_$[elem/Name] in the Configtool. For the

first node, it will be replaced with PP1_JC00_server0.

1. Run the SAP J2EE Configtool.

2. Navigate to Instance/VM Parameters/System and enter the following new parameters
(Windows example):

Name Value
com.wily.introscope.agent.agentName ${SYSTEM_NAME}_${INSTANCE_NAME}_$[elem/Name]
com.wily.introscope.agentProfile <drive>:/usr/sap/ccms/wily
/IntroscopeAgent.profile

3. Navigate to Instance/VM Parameters/Additional and enter the following new java

parameter (Windows example):
-javaagent:<drive>:/usr/sap/ccms/wily/Agent.jar

Note that for NetWeaver on Windows, the slashes for these java parameters must go
forwards.

Unix example:
Instance/VM Parameters/System:
Name Value
com.wily.introscope.agent.agentName ${SYSTEM_NAME}_${INSTANCE_NAME}_$[elem/Name]
com.wily.introscope.agentProfile /usr/sap/ccms/wily/IntroscopeAgent.profile

Instance/VM Parameters/Additional:
Name
-javaagent:/usr/sap/ccms/wily/Agent.jar

4. Click the disk button to save.

5. Repeat steps 2 - 4 for each instance.
6. Restart the SAP instance.
7. To verify that Config tool changes were made, open the file:

<drive>:\usr\sap\<SID>\<instance>\j2ee\cluster\instance.properties

8. Check for a line beginning with ID<server_id>.JavaParameters, and see if it

contains the lines you entered in the step above.

Introscope® Version 8 Installation Guide for SAP (5/3/2010) Page

28
 Introscope Installation for SAP

Set Java VM Parameters for SAP IPC

The procedure to add JVM options for the IPC to enable Introscope is described in SAP Note
886600. Note that Introscope does not support IPC running in the VM container (VMC) as
it is delivered for SAP CRM 5.0.

Set Java VM Parameters for IBM WebSphere Application Server

The procedure to add JVM options for IBM WebSphere Application Server to enable
Introscope is described in SAP Note 1418638.

Set Java VM Parameters for Tomcat

The procedure to add JVM options for Tomcat Server to enable Introscope is described in
SAP Note 1438005.

Checking that the Agent is Running

1. Check that the SAP J2EE nodes start up correctly after the restart and that the J2EE
applications are available as before.
2. Search for an Agent log file in the logs subdirectory of the Introscope agent directory,
e.g., in the directory /usr/sap/ccms/wily/logs. The file will be named
IntroscopeAgent.<AgentName>.log, where <AgentName> is the name that you
assigned via the JVM parameter above. Open the text file with a text editor and check
the last lines. You will probably find warnings that the connection to the Enterprise
Manager failed – since you have not yet started the Enterprise Manager.

EXAMPLE
The last few lines of the agent log file should similar to the following:
12/06/06 01:41:46 PM PST [INFO] [IntroscopeAgent.IsengardServerConnectionManager]
Connected Agent to the Introscope Enterprise Manager at
localhost:6001,com.wily.isengard.postofficehub.link.net.DefaultSocketFactory. Host =
"emhost", Process = "SAP Netweaver", Agent Name = "xxx_server0".

Check that the Agent is Running

Launch the Introscope Workstation to check if the data provided by the agent arrives
at the Enterprise Manager. For this purpose, launch the Workstation in a browser:
http://emhost:8081/workstation

Introscope® Version 8 Installation Guide for SAP (5/3/2010) Page

29
 Introscope Installation for SAP

You should get a login prompt as shown below. Use login credentials from the table in
Chapter 1 to authenticate. As an alternative, you can also launch a Workstation that
you explicitly installed or WebView (http://emhost:8081/webview).

Open the Investigator (Workstation menu New Investigator) to display a tree of all
connected hosts and agents. Click the plus signs to open subtrees. For each connected
agent, you should find a subtree host SAP Netweaver AgentName in the
Investigator that looks similar to the screenshot below. Depending on the type of the
managed system, some tree nodes may be missing.
Please check the following:
If your managed system is running SAP J2EE, you should at least have SAP
J2EE.
CPU is only available on some Windows, Solaris, and Linux platforms, so this
may indeed be missing.
Some nodes will only appear after first use. For example, Servlets will only
appear after the first servlet has been executed.

5 Workstation Installation
If you decide to explicitly install the Introscope Workstation on Client PCs, proceed as
described in this section. Note that the workstation can always be downloaded on demand
from the Enterprise Manager using Java WebStart, as described in Chapter 1.
Installers are available for the following platforms:
Windows 32bit
Windows x86_64
Linux IA32
Linux x86_64
The installation is described here for Windows. If you want to install it on Linux, remember
to set the DISPLAY before launching the installer.
1. Extract the downloaded Workstation installer:
sapcar –xvf SAPISWS*.SAR

2. Copy the two files that you downloaded from CA Wily’s FTP server to the directory
which contains the installer (see Chapter 1, Download Third-Party External Component
Package from CA Wily). These are the same files that were used for the Enterprise
Manager installation. The following files should be copied:
a. eula.txt
b. The osgiPackages archive appropriate for your system:

i. osgiPackages.v1.2.windows.zip, for a Windows system

ii. osgiPackages.v1.2.unix.tar, for a UNIX system
3. Launch the installer. If you keep the file installer.properties in the directory where
you launch the installer, the installation will proceed silently.
Alternatively, remove the file installer.properties. Then you will be guided
through the installation by a wizard.
a. (Silent installation) By default, the installation will be placed in the folder
c:\Introscope82. If desired, pass a different target directory as a command line
parameter:
IntroscopeWorkstation8.2.2.0windowsSAP.exe
–DUSER_INSTALL_DIR=d:/usr/sap/some/dir

b. (installation with wizard) Select a target installation directory of your choice. Keep
No for Configure VM Settings and enter the host name of the Enterprise Manager in
the field Workstation Default Host. Finally, click Install to launch the installation.

6 Environment Performance
Agent (De)Installation
Note: Starting with SP13 of Solution Manager Diagnostics (LMSERVICE13_0), the
Introscope HostAgent takes over the role of the former EPAgent. The HostAgent is part of
the SMDAgent process and centrally administered via the SMD. Please remove any existing
manual EPAgent installations from the monitored systems.

Remove the EPAgent

1. Windows only: If the EPAgent was set up to run as Windows Service, call the batch file
DeregisterEPAService.bat which is located in the installation directory of the EPAgent.
This will stop the Windows service and remove the service.

2. Unix only: Search for the Java process hosting the EPAgent and kill the process.
3. Remove the complete installation directory of the EPAgent.

Activate the HostAgent

4. After upgrading Solution Manager Diagnostics to SP13, run the managed systems
setup wizard for all managed systems. This will enable and configure the host agent,
including the configuration of appropriate plugins to monitor the managed system.

7 Additional Installation
Options
This chapter covers additional customizing steps of the Introscope Installation:
• Changing the Agent port from 6001 to other values
• Uninstalling Introscope
• Setting up domains
• User Management
• Enable Single Sign On from Solution Manager
• Enterprise Manager Cluster Setup

Change the Agent Port

The Enterprise Manager by default listens on TCP port 6001 for agent connections. You can
change this value to any desired port:
1. Open the file, config/IntroscopeEnterpriseManager.properties.

2. Change the value of property introscope.enterprisemanager.port.channel1

to the desired port.
3. Save changes and close the file.
4. Remember to change the property in the IntroscopeAgent.profile to the same
port.

Uninstalling Introscope
Uninstalling Introscope Agents
5. Remove the Java VM options for Introscope from the J2EE nodes that you instrumented
before. The following options should be removed:
a. -Xbootclasspath/p: <some path>/wily/connectors/connector.jar: <some
path>/wily/Agent.jar (Java 1.3, 1.4 only)
b. -Dcom.wily.introscope.agentProfile=<some
path>/wily/IntroscopeAgent.profile
c. -Dcom.wily.introscope.agent.agentName=<AgentName>
d. -javaagent:<some path>/wily/Agent.jar (Java 5 only)
6. Use SDM to undeploy the JmxService helper application (com.wilytech.jmxservice)
in case it is still present from previous Introscope versions.

Introscope® Version 8 Installation Guide for SAP (5/3/2010) Page

35
 Introscope Installation for SAP

7. Restart the affected J2EE instances for the changes to become effective.
8. Delete the directory <some path>/wily (or wherever you put the agent files).

Uninstalling Environment Performance Agents

1. On Windows only: Call the script DeregisterEPAService.bat to stop and unregister the
Windows service.
2. On other platforms: Stop the Java VM containing the EPAgent.
3. Delete the complete directory containing the EPAgent installation.

Uninstalling the Enterprise Manager

1. Windows only: Call the batch file DeRegisterEMservice.bat to remove the Windows
Service
2. Windows only: Call the wizard to uninstall Introscope: Start Control Panel Add or
Remove Programs; Select Introscope and click change/remove to launch the Wizard.
Click Next to continue the uninstall.
3. Remove any remaining files from /usr/sap/ccms/wilyintroscope.

Uninstalling WebView on Netweaver

1. Use SDM to undeploy the application com.wilytech.webview if you still have a copy
of WebView deployed on NetWeaver.

Setting up Introscope Domains

Introscope agents can be organized into so-called domains. You can use this feature to
group agents which are correlated, e.g. belonging to the same domain.
Domains are defined in the Enterprise Manager by the configuration file
config/domains.xml. By default, there is only one domain, the SuperDomain, which
contains all agents. SAP recommends defining one domain for each solution or each
system. You can pick agents for a domain based on the host name and on the agent name.
Too many domains may, however, impact the Enterprise Manager performance since the
management modules are replicated for each domain. For this reason, make sure you do
not have more than 10 domains.
Example: Assume you want to create two domains EPP and EPQ for the productive and the
QA Enterprise Portal. Your agent names contain the System id (also EPQ, EPP).
Step 1: Adapt the domains.xml file on the Enterprise Manager:

Introscope® Version 8 Installation Guide for SAP (5/3/2010) Page

36
 Introscope Installation for SAP

Step 2: Replicate the management modules:

Step 2a: In the directory config/modules, create one subdirectory for each domain. The
folder name must be the domain name (in the example, folders EPP, EPQ).
Step 2b: copy all management modules from config/modules to each subdirectory.

Step 3: Restart the Enterprise Manager to activate the changes.

Step 4: Check the Explorer in Workstation or WebView to see if the domains appear and if
the agents are assigned to the right domain.

Note that the SuperDomain must always be the last entry in the domains file.
Note that currently the Introscope Host Agent and the Netweaver agent for some system
must always be in the same domain. If the Host Agent remains in the SuperDomain and
Netweaver agents are moved to some custom domain, the SAP GC metrics will be missing
in the Netweaver agent.

User Management
User accounts must be maintained in the file users.xml, located in the subdirectory
config/ of the Enterprise Manager. Permissions are controlled by the file domains.xml in
the same directory. To create a new user X with password Y, proceed as follows:
1. Generate the MD5-encoded password by the script MD5Encoder:
MD5Encoder Y
Y:57cec4137b614c87cb4e24a3d03a3e0

Introscope® Version 8 Installation Guide for SAP (5/3/2010) Page

37
 Introscope Installation for SAP

2. Add a new line to users.xml before the final </users> line, using the generated
password string (the part after :) as password:
<user name="X" password="57cec4137b614c87cb4e24a3d03a3e0" />
3. Add permissions for the user to the Superdomain in the domains.xml file:
<grant user="X" permission="read" />
<grant user="X" permission="run_tracer" />
<grant user="X" permission="historical_agent_control" />
<grant user="X" permission="live_agent_control" />

Note: If you do not have a full license for Introscope, you cannot use permission=”full” or
“write“ here!

Enable Single Sign On from Solution Manager

Starting with Introscope Enterprise Manager release 7.2.2 (SAP release 72_02), the
Enterprise Manager web server can accept single sign on tickets from Solution Manager
systems. To enable this feature, the certificates from the ABAP / Java stack of the Solution
Manager system must be copied to the directory sap/TrustedCerts in the Enterprise
Manager. Currently, no automated procedure is available to perform these steps. For
jump-in from Solution Manager Diagnostics, only the Java certificate must be exported.

Copy the Certificate from the Java Stack

Enterprise Manager Cluster Setup

If the scalability limit of a single Enterprise Manager is reached, you have to set up
additional EMs. You can either keep each EM isolated and connect it to Solution Manager,
or connect multiple EMs to a cluster, appearing virtually as one EM. In this cluster, an

additional EM acts as “Manager of Managers” (MoM). Only the MoM accepts Workstation
and Solution Manager connections, whereas the other EMs in the cluster act as “Collectors”.
Only collectors accept agent connections. To configure an EM cluster, proceed as follows:
1. Make sure the prerequisites are met:
a. Strict clock synchronization between all involved hosts (e.g. via NTP).
b. Fast LAN connection between all EMs
2. Configure the collector EMs. In config/IntroscopeEnterpriseManager.properties, set
introscope.enterprisemanager.clustering.collector.enable=true

3. Configure the MoM. In config/IntroscopeEnterpriseManager.properties, set

introscope.enterprisemanager.clustering.manager.enable=true

List connection data for all collector Ems, e.g.

introscope.enterprisemanager.clustering.login.em1.host=myhost1
introscope.enterprisemanager.clustering.login.em1.port=6001
introscope.enterprisemanager.clustering.login.em1.publickey=internal/server
/EM.public
introscope.enterprisemanager.clustering.login.em2.host=myhost2
introscope.enterprisemanager.clustering.login.em2.port=6001
introscope.enterprisemanager.clustering.login.em2.publickey=internal/server
/EM.public
