Setting Up Accounts for SAP Host Agent Monitoring
On Microsoft Windows, we recommend using a single domain user for all host agents.
The user account(s) must be a member of:
On Linux/Unix: sapsys group
On Windows: SAP_LocalAdmin group
IT-Conductor uses web services provided by the SAP host agent, which are protected and can only be used by an authenticated caller (see SAP Note 927637). To authorize users to access SAP host agent services, the following need to be performed for all hosts to be monitored, after ensuring the executable <DIR_EXECUTABLE>/sapuxuserchk has 4750 permission (on Linux/Unix).
Note: Only needed if not using adm; we recommend sapadm or daaadm.
For All Instances in a Host:
Open the file:
/usr/sap/hostctrl/exe/host_profile
C:\Program Files\SAP\hostctrl\exe\host_profile
2. Add the "service/admin_users" parameter with the following values (separated by a blank space):
3. On Unix: As root user - restart the relevant "sapstartsrv" process for the sap instance using: "systemctl restart sapinit", which requires an SAP downtime, so make sure to do it during maintenance.
