Message type: E = Error
Message class: RT - Monitoring infrastructure MSG and alert texts
Message number: 358
Message text: Availability and status of an instance
Displays the availability status of a specific instance in a system
that is monitored for availbility. Below this MTE, you will find
further monitoring MTEs that display:
The instance status
The most recent reported status (active or inactive)
The instance summary
The percentage of time that the instance was available over a specific
period of time. This time period is specified in the customizing
options of the instance summary MTE.
The alert monitor triggers a yellow alert if an instance is not active.
You can specify which instances if any are to be monitored. To do
this, start the analysis method at any MTE in the Instances sub-tree.
Disabling the monitoring of instances has no effect on the monitoring
of the system availability as such. While no instance MTEs will be
provided with availability values, the monitor will still report
whether the system was available: the message server of the monitored
system reported that at least one instance was active.
The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

SAP messages fall into 3 different categories: Error messages
(message type = E), Warnings (W) or Informational (I) messages.
An error message will prevent you from continuing your work - it is a hard stop and you need to fix the error before you can proceed. A warning message will stop your work, however, you can then bypass the warning by pressing the Enter key on your keyboard. That said, it is still good practice to investigate the cause of the warning message and address it. An information message will not stop your work and is truly just for informational purposes.
