Procedure documentation Configuring the SLD Data Supplier: Default Settings  Locate the document in its SAP Library structure

Use

If your SAP system is running on SAP Web AS ABAP lower than release 6.30 and contains the data supplier function, you have to perform an initial configuration of the SLD data supplier.

As of SAP Web AS ABAP release 6.30, the initial configuration of the data supplier is performed by the SAP installation tool SAPinst during installation. No further configuration is required, unless you want to change the default settings (see Global Settings).

Prerequisites

The SLD and the SLD bridge (the receiving thread of the SLD, which runs on the J2EE Engine) are running.

Procedure

 

       1.      Call transaction RZ70.

       2.      In the SLD Bridge: Gateway Information group box, enter the following data:

                            a.      In the Host field, enter the name of the gateway host.

                            b.      In the Service field, enter the name of the gateway service.

Caution

Make sure that the entries for the gateway host and service are exactly the same as in the SLD Bridge. We recommend that you have a gateway installed on the SLD server to avoid any erroneous use of one gateway by more than one SLD bridge.

       3.      In the Data Collection Programs group box, choose This graphic is explained in the accompanying text Proposal.

Note

If your system is running on SAP Basis release 4.0B, choose This graphic is explained in the accompanying text Import.

A dialog box appears and you are asked whether you want to use the installation default settings.

       4.      Choose Yes.

       5.      Save these settings by choosing This graphic is explained in the accompanying text Activate Current Configuration.

Note

If you want to test the data collector, you can start the data collector once without scheduling a batch job by choosing This graphic is explained in the accompanying text Start Data Collector Without Job Scheduling.

       6.      Choose This graphic is explained in the accompanying text Start Data Collection and Job Scheduling.

A separate screen appears with a list of the executed programs and you are informed whether the initial transfer of data by RFC has been successful. For more information, see SAP Note 584654.

Result

You have set the data supplier to send data about the current system directly to the SLD by using an RFC connection. A scheduled batch job updates the data about the system in the SLD twice a day.
