Providing File System for XML DAS Archiving

Use

If you want to store the resources that you archived using XML Data Archiving Service (XML DAS) on a file system, you need give XML DAS the authorization for the execution of the required access and administration functions.

Prerequisites

  • You have provided a secure system with sufficient dimensions.

  • The file system is connected with each instance of the AS Java as a network drive.

Procedure

1. Enable XML DAS access to the file system

  1. Authorize the service user of the AS Java on which XML DAS runs to access the file system. The service user needs to have read and write authorization as well as the authorization to create directories.

    According to the AS Java operating system, the name of the service user is a follows:

    • Microsoft Windows: SAPService<SID>

    • Unix: <SID>adm

  2. If the AS Java on which XML DAS runs has multiple instances, make sure that there is a connection from the file system to each of these instances.

2. Optional: Synchronize the buffers with the file system

  1. In the AS Java, on which XML DAS runs, call up NetWeaver Administrator (NWA) .

  2. Choose Start of the navigation pathConfiguration Next navigation step Infrastructure Next navigation step Java System PropertiesEnd of the navigation path.

  3. In the Templates section, choose Display Enhanced Properties .

  4. In the Details on section, select the Applications tab page.

  5. Filter the list with xml_das .

  6. Choose the tc~TechSrv~XML_DAS entry.

  7. In the Enhanced Details section, check whether the value of the parameter FILESYSTEMSYNC is set to Y .

    This setting forces the synchronization of the buffers and the file system, thereby ensuring that all resources end up in the store (and that none remain in the buffer).
