2196670 - PI Mon: Grey metrics in component Business Process Management (BPM)

In double stack PI systems (ABAP + JAVA), there is a component “Business Process Engine” (BPE) that could be used to model special scenarios (User interaction, scenarios approval, reaction of message on certain events, etc.). This component is based on ccBPM (ABAP Workflow). In Java-only PI systems there is no ABAP Stack and hence BPE cannot be used. In these cases, BPE is replaced with Business Process Management (BPM), which is a Netweaver CE tool (Java based). BPM metrics, directly taken from System Monitoring, are showing grey status in PI Overview Monitor.

Note: Please do not mix up NetWeaver BPM with Solution Manager BPMon (Business Process Monitoring). For details, see SAP Note 1886539 - "Business Process Management (BPM) vs Business Process Monitoring in SolMan".
