Technical Version: 2.3.0
New sensors
SAP Parameter Monitor
- Checks one or more SAP profile parameters for desired values using different comparing operators
- The sensor is delivered with a predefined template of security relevant parameters based on the official SAP Security Baseline
New features
Framework
The SAP sensors can now also be used to monitor ECP systems running on Successfactors. Don't hesitate to contact us if you want to get more information.
HANA Monitor
By an extension of the channel "logmodecheck" the usage type of the HANA database is also checked and you have now 4 different result values:
3. Error = log mode overwrite of production systems is set
4. Error = no backup and log mode normal is defined
SAP Certificate Monitor
Two additional values have been added to the <PSEName> channel to get notified once a certificate expires in less than 90 and less than 60 days.
SAP Dump Monitor
Added the new parameter “IgnoreReport” to exclude program(s) from counting the number of dumps.
Oracle Monitor
Added new channels for checking the status of incremental backups "… Incr Backup(s)" in case the default value of parameter "IncrBackupsUsed" is changed from no to yes.
Bugfixes
Oracle Monitor
- You don't get "insufficient privileges" errors anymore when a tablespace is empty (e.g. for PSAPUNDO).
SAP Certificate Monitor
- The SAPSNCSKERB.pse certificate is not a "normal" PSE, since it contains keytab entries and you can not read the expiration date respectively there is no expiration date. Thus it will be ignored now.
- The correct result is now displayed in case the certificate can't be read or the certificate is not yet valid. Before an "expiration in less than 7 days" was displayed as result.
SAP Job Monitor
- The parameter "Jobname" is no longer ignored when monitoring suspended jobs.
HANA Monitor
- The calculation of the peak memory of the last 12 months is sometimes wrong. That depends on the HANA revision which is used. Now the total consumption of the peak HANA memory is displayed correctly.
SAP Update Monitor
- The successfully processed V2 updates are not interpreted as errors anymore.
SSH Memory Info
- The value of "Swap Used Percent" is now calculated correctly in case "Swap Total" is 0.

Technical version: 2.0.0
We are proud to present you a brand new release of Scansor - formerly known as SAP monitoring for PRTG - the one and only tool to monitor SAP systems, the tool our customers love.
With this release we introduce new license keys. You will need a new license key for using it. Existing customers will be informed and contacted automatically. Please do not hesitate to contact our support or sales if you have any questions to your existing license.
This release includes also new sensors that will change your way of monitoring.
New Sensors
SAP PI/PO Sensor
This brand new sensor contains parts of the PI message monitor and allows you to monitor the status of the messages. You get an overview of the amount of messages with the following status:
- error messages
- canceled (with error) messages
By default the monitor covers the messages from the last hour but that can be easily adjusted.
SAP Security Check
From a production perspective, it is considered critical if authorization object S_DEVELOP is assigned to users. In general, authorization object S_DEVELOP with more than display access (ACTVT 03) is not required by any user in production.
Unlike other Sensors, this Sensor outputs not a PRTG result but a list with the UNAME (username) and AGR_NAME. With this check you get a list of users who got that auhtorization object assigned.
SAP Certificate Monitor
- OK: Certificate valid
- Warning: Certificate expires in 30 days
- Error: Certificate expires in 7 days
- Error: Certificate not yet valid
- Error: Could not parse PSE validity
It returns an error message as result text if there is an exception while collecting PSE or OS executes.
SSH File Monitor
Bugfixes
SAP Job Monitor ignores warning limits
- Correction of limit parameters in "Aborted" and "Suspended" channel (change warning limit min to warning limit max)
- Add options to check also for "ENDDATE" and "ENDTIME" (not only "STRTDATE" and "STRTTIME") for all channels except "Suspended"
- Parameter "Days" removed; using only parameter "Minutes"
SAP STMS Monitor checks wrong time value
Fixed a bug where the sensor returned too many results due to wrong date and time handling.
