Setting the SNC Profile Parameters
The last step in the configuration procedure on the AS ABAP is to set the SNC-relevant profile parameters.
Setting the profile parameter snc/enable to 1 activates SNC on the application server. If this parameter is set but the SNC PSE and credentials do not exist, then the application server will not start. Therefore, setting the SNC parameters should be the last step in the configuration procedure.
The SNC PSE and the corresponding credentials exist for the application server.
- Set the following profile parameters on the application server so that the server can communicate using SNC.Note
There are additional parameters, but the most important ones are listed below. For a complete list, see Profile Parameter Settings on AS ABAP.
