Importing the SAP Web Dispatcher 

If you do not have the executable sapwebdisp on your kernel CD, or you want to use the latest version, you can get the current SAP Web Dispatcher from the SAP Service Marketplace under http://service.sap.com/patches

Support Packages and Patches ® Entry by Application Group ® Additional Components ® SAP Kernel ® SAP KERNEL  (32/64Bit, Unicode/non Unicode) ® SAP KERNEL (32/64Bit, Unicode/non Unicode)7.00  ® <OS Platform>  ® #Database Independent.

You can download the kernel package SAPWEBDISP_<PL>.SAR (SAP Web Dispatcher package), this contains the SAP Web dispatcher (sapwebdisp) and all supplementary programs and libraries.

Until recently the SAP Web dispatcher was contained in kernel package DW_<PL>.SAR (disp+work package).

To use  and monitor the Web dispatcher from the Web Administration Interface, you need packet WDISPADMIN.SAR, which you can also find on your kernel CD in packet SAPWEBDISP_<PL>.SAR on the Service Marketplace. (In earlier releases the same packet was used for this as for the ICM: ICMADMIN.If the ICM and Web dispatcher have the same release, this is still possible).

With J2EE-only installations you receive the SAP Web Dispatcher in a package with the Central Services (see below Load Balancing Between Many J2EE Instances).

Although the SAP Web dispatcher can run in any directory, we recommend that you install it in a separate directory:    

Windows: C:\Program Files\SAP\SAPWebDisp                                                                     

UNIX: /usr/sap/<SID>/sapwebdisp                                                                             

Create the directory for this and unpack program sapwebdisp into this directory. Also copy the associated profile file into this directory.

You can Start the SAP Web Dispatcher with the Bootstrap Option, and then the profile file is created at the same time automatically.
