The SAP EarlyWatch Alert identifies potential problems in SAP systems at an early stage by monitoring regularly collected system data. It analyzes this data and provides a report of any issues found. This helps customers optimize system performance and prevent downtime. The report contains summaries of the system configuration, performance, workload distribution, operations, hardware capacity, database performance, administration, and trends over time. Customers must have an RFC connection enabled between their SAP system and SAP Solution Manager for EarlyWatch Alert monitoring.
