6.4.2 Using the command to extract CCMS alert information
When executing the jr3alget command (either manually or automatically from another program), you can select the CCMS alert information to be extracted from the SAP system as follows:
-
Extract all CCMS alert information that has been output so far on the day the command is executed.
-
Extract only the CCMS alert information that has been output since the last time the command was executed.
For details about the jr3alget command, see jr3alget.
- Notes
-
-
The CCMS alert information is treated as a single resource in the SAP system and can be referenced from any application servers; therefore, the target can be any application server. Execute only one command per SAP system.
-
If you specify values for the same parameter in both the environment parameters file and the jr3alget command, the value in the command takes effect.
-
The two extraction methods are explained below.
- Organization of this subsection
(1) Extracting all CCMS alert information that has been output so far on the day the command is executed
The following command specification extracts all CCMS alert information that has been output so far on the day the command is executed (this example assumes that values have been defined for the CONNECT and TARGET sections in the environment parameters file):
jr3alget
(2) Extracting only the CCMS alert information that has been output since the last time the command was executed
To extract only the CCMS alert information that has been output since the last time the command was executed, execute the command with the timestamp file specified in the -lasttime option. The timestamp file contains a history of the execution dates and times for jr3alget command. When you execute the command repeatedly specifying the same timestamp file, you extract consecutive CCMS alert information without any duplication.
- Note
-
If the timestamp file specified in the -lasttime option does not exist when the command is executed for the first time, the command creates a new timestamp file, in which case no CCMS alert information is reported.
The following command specification extracts only the CCMS alert information that has been output since the last time the command was executed (this example assumes that values have been defined for the CONNECT and TARGET sections in the environment parameters file):
