The Trento Agent is to be set up on every node that should be handled by Trento.
The Trento Agent will run several periodic job loops.
The Discovery loop is happening at a very low frequency and priority and is capturing record-worthy Data. At the current implementation, only selected datapoints are regularly updated. There is no conflict-resolution being implemented, the data is unconditionally overwritten.
TBD
Whenever the Trento user is exposed to concepts, the following naming should
be used consistently in the user visible dialogs, messages and templates. For
code internal usages the SAP
prefix should be omitted.
This is a physical or a virtual server ("node") running a Linux Operating System on which SAP system components are installed and running on (potentially supervised by cluster management software like for example pacemaker).
This uses a very traditional multi-tier client server setup:
-
Presentation Layer: Web Browser, Dedicated GUI or 3rd Party Application between End-User and Application Servers. Out of control for Trento.
-
Application Server Layer: Business applications which the end users interact with (can be written in ABAP programming language, for example)
-
Database Server Layer: Contains the customer data and all the ABAP code which is run by the application servers. Most often this is SAP HANA.
