Analyst‟s Perception on the Value of SAP Solution Manager It is a fully fledged and credible IT operations and service management tool

Originally designed as an incident and problem

management tool for SAP’s own customer support, the

Solution Manager today, is a fully fledged and credible IT

operations and service management tool especially

suitable for SAP-centric environments.

Since the SAP system landscape may include numerous

installed SAP and non-SAP systems, SAP Solution

Manager decreases and centralizes the management of

these systems and end-to-end business processes.

Proactive system and application monitoring as well as

change management are the most widespread use cases,

but customers aggressively step-up and extend the use of

Solution Manager to process management, test

management, incident and problem management.

Important to Know & Your Next Steps Upgrade details

Relevant for all customers: No CRM issues this time: SAP Solution Manager 7.2 does not

contain a new SAP CRM release. We only move to a new

enhancement package, the impact of the 7.2 upgrade is

significantly lower than in the 7.1 upgrade

If you already adopted the Monitoring & Alerting infrastructure,

then you are fine. Note that business process monitoring

based on the Monitoring and Alerting Infrastructure (MAI)

is mandatory in 7.2

The split of ABAP and JAVA stacks, and the upgrade to SAP

NetWeaver 7.40 are performed automatically in a standard

upgrade procedure

Activation of Solution Documentation can be prepared well in

advance of the upgrade

Optional upgrade step:

• The migration to SAP HANA fully supports the one-step-

upgrade approach (i.e. the SAP standard for migrating to SAP

HANA)

The upgrade from SAP Solution Manager 7.1 to 7.2 is standard

Planned

Innovations

This is the current state of planning and may be changed by SAP at any time.

Hi,

I have set the priority to very high. You can very well imagine the consequence of

SAP Solution Manager 7.2 Introduction to Release Management

Release & Deployment Management is essential

to manage successful deployment of all related

changes into the productive environment.

Release Management defines dates and

schedule for Releases.

Release content is determined by Projects,

Requests for Changes, and related Change

Documents.

The Release Cycle is a technical container and

model for the release content.

The new “Solution” of SAP Solution Manager

Planned

Innovations

The Solution is the sum of a company’s

systems and processes. It acts as a container

for versions of solution documentation, one of

which is the production version.”

Versioning

– Each solution documentation version is a branch.

System Landscape

– Logical Component Groups group single Logical Components

together. Logical components point to actual technical systems.

Groups and Components are assigned to branches and re-used

also in other scenarios.

Processes

– A process executes functions in systems to achieve a business

goal.
