Server Intelligence is a component of the Central Management Console
(CMC) that simplifies administrative procedures previously carried out by
the Central Configuration Manager (CCM), such as the management of CMC
server processes. This includes the addition and removal of server processes

server process configuration, and the automatic restart or shutdown of servers
that encounter unexpected conditions.
Server Intelligence also archives server process information in the CMS
database so you can easily restore default server settings, or create
redundant instances of server processes with the same settings.
Note:
The CCM is a tool that allows you to configure and manage the Server
Intelligence Agent. The Server Intelligence Agent is the component that
allows you to manage all servers through the CMC. You can also use the
CCM to create and manage nodes in your deployment.

那么其实SI是在XI Rlease3以后引入的，从CCM中拿了出来，成为了CMC的一部分，用来管理SAP BO的server。而SIA是SI的一个“壳”，为从CMC管理服务器提供了一个接口。

另外，在CCM中建立一个SIA，其实就相当于创建了一个BO的node，而每个SIA会伴随一个bootstrap文件，SIA可以在启动时尝试启动local的CMS，也可以连接到remote的CMS，当然后者就没有启动操作了，只不过是将自己注册给那个CMS而已。
