BusinessObjects Administration – What to monitor

[former_member182521]

This is a continuation of my blog BusinessObjects Monitoring and Housekeeping activities (http://scn.sap.com/community/bi-platform/blog/2012/10/22/businessobjects-monitoring-and-housekeeping... ).  Just wanted to brief what is exactly needs to be done as part of daily monitoring in high level.

This will be the basis template to be used for monitoring
