Top-Level Sap Netweaver Performance and Availability Application Classes

SAP NetWeaver Performance and Availability

During the discovery process, the mapping of monitored elements is created, based
on your SAP landscape. If you have both J2EE and R/3 stacks configured, the toplevel SAP NetWeaver Performance and Availability container contains both J2EE and
R/3 containers.
Top-level SAP NetWeaver Performance and Availability

application classes
The SAP NetWeaver Performance and Availability application classes monitor IT
components. Figure 5 illustrates the visual hierarchy of the top-level SAP NetWeaver
Performance and Availability application classes, which are listed in Table 5.
For details regarding the J2EE stack, see J2EE stack application classes on
page 24.
For details regarding the R/3 stack, see R/3 stack application classes on page 26.
