Configuring SDIC Properties

Use

The Serverside Development Infrastructure Client (SDIC) has a set of service properties which need to be configured before you use SDIC. These properties can be configured using the SAP NetWeaver Administrator tool.

Prerequisites

You have the needed administrative privileges for the SAP NetWeaver Administrator.

Procedure

Open the SAP NetWeaver Administrator tool.

To do that, open the following URL: http://<host>:<port>/nwa .
Choose Configuration Infrastructure Java System Properties.

Java System Properties view allows you to change properties for different services and applications.
Choose the required instance from Templates .
Choose the Services tab and select SDIC Service from the service list.

This displays the SDIC properties under Extended Details .

Caution

Any change to properties affects all the SIDEs using SDIC, so these properties should be configured only by the SDIC administrator.

You can configure the following properties for SDIC:

SDIC Properties

Name	Default Value	Description
sdic.cache.devconfig.timeout	30	Refresh timeout (in minutes) for the cached development configuration. The cache is marked as obsolete after this timeout period. The next request fetches the development configuration from the NWDI server and caches it again until the timeout occurs again.
sdic.default.devconfig	<Domain track system>	Default development configuration to be used The name of the development configuration that is used if the application using SDIC provides no means to define development configuration on its own. The development configuration has the format <Domain ID of CMS>_<Track ID>_D, where <Track ID> is the ID of the track. For example: F50_VCTESTID_D.
sdic.nwdiservers.admin.user	<service user>	The name of the user with access to NWDI servers. However, this user should not exist in the AS Java where the SDIC is hosted. This user is used by SDIC for the invalidation task when state store is switched on. Do not change this property.
sdic.nwdiservers.connecttimeout	10000	Initial connection timeout (in milliseconds) of the connection between the SDIC server and the NWDI servers.
sdic.nwdiservers.expiretimeout	10000	Expiry timeout (in milliseconds) of the connection between the SDIC server and the NWDI servers.
sdic.nwdiservers.max.checkin.attempts	3	Maximum number of times SDIC will attempt a check-in in case the check-in failed due to concurrency issues. At least one attempt takes place. To use Visual Composer set the property value to 10 .
sdic.nwdiservers.readtimeout	300000	Read timeout (in milliseconds) after which the session between the SDIC and the AS Java server elapses.
sdic.sld.url	http://<host>:<port>	System Landscape Directory (SLD) URL of the AS Java server on which the SAP NetWeaver development Infrastructure (NWDI) server is running.
