If you have 3 or 4 client systems, must you install SAP solution manager for each one of these systems and manage them independently -or- 2. Can you install One Solution manager, that will manage all 3 these systems in one solution manager -or- 3. Do you install 3 Solution managers for each of the systems, then another one linked to the 3 individual solution managers, which then in turn manages the 3 systems in one.

In any System landscape only one solution manager is installated in one system and it will communicate with the other system using the RFC and collect the report from each and every system through (SDCCN).               *-- K. V. Shrinivasan.
