Introduction:
In the Cockpit Manager, as a cockpit administrator, you can select Settings to configure data collection, proxy
server settings, and the connection timeout period, and to control whether or not SAP HANA Cockpit displays
auto-created groups.
TASK 1:DATA COLLECTION
As a cockpit administrator, you can reconfigure the default, pre configured SAP HANA cockpit global settings
for collecting monitoring data, such as system status, alert counts, and other data from registered resources.
Navigation
In the
Cockpit Manager, select
Cockpit Settings, and then
Data Collection.
If necessary, you can change the defaults to specify:
● How many worker
threads the collection service should use. Increasing threads can improve response time
but uses more memory. The default is 5 threads.
● Whether and how often the cockpit collects system status and alert counts. The default is 60 seconds.
● Whether and how often the cockpit collects key performance area monitoring data from each managed
resource.The default is 5 minutes.
There may be a brief lag before your changes in values take effect.
Note:
You can also modify the collection settings for a specific resource by editing the details of that resource.
Doing so overrides the global settings for that particular resource. See Override Data Collection for a
Resource.
Tip:
- The cockpit can support 1000s of registered resources.
If the System Health Monitor displays ‘
Not
Collected’ for specific resources, you may wish to investigate the collection service log for rejected
collections and reconfigure the worker threads accordingly.

TASK 4: Specifying Display of Auto-Generated Groups
As a cockpit administrator, you can choose whether or not SAP HANA cockpit displays resources as part of
auto-created resource groups, or solely as part of resource groups that you create.
A resource group—a named set of one or more registered resources—controls management and monitoring
privileges. When you assign a cockpit user to a resource group that you have created, you enable the user to
monitor and manage the group's resources through the cockpit. Each registered resource also belongs to a
usage type resource group. These auto-created groups of resources (Production, Test, Development) are based
on the system usage type of each resource. System usage type is configured during system installation, or later
using the global.ini file with the usage parameter in the system_information section.
You can choose to hide one or more of the auto-created groups through the Cockpit Manager by selecting
Settings, then Display, and deselecting or selecting each box. Opting to hide the auto-created groups does not
affect the system usage type associated with the resource. It simply prevents the cockpit from organizing the
display of resources by auto-created group.
