A dialog box is displayed, providing an overview of systems. The available functions are described below.

Add system: When you add a new system to the overview, the tool will check the status of the Service Data Control Center in that system. It will also check whether the current SAP Solution Manager system is registered as the master system.

· If no master system has been set, "no master defined" will be displayed in the "Foreign Master" column.

· If the current SAP Solution Manager system has been set as the master system, no entry will be displayed in the "Foreign Master" column.

· If a system other than the current one has been set as the master system, the system ID (SID) of the master system will be displayed in the ‘Foreign Master’ column.

The icon in the SDCCN Status column indicates whether the Service Data Control Center is running properly. Click the icon to display more information about the current status. Depending on the status of the Service Data Control Center, an icon will be displayed in the Call SDCCN column.

If the Call SDCCN column displays:
