Installation on UNIX 

Prerequisites

You have the latest version of SAProuter (available from the SAP Service Marketplace (http://service.sap.com/swcenter-main)) and have read the readme file.

1. Create the subdirectory saprouter in the directory /usr/sap/.
2. Get the most recent version of the SAProuter from sapserv3, directory /general/misc/saprouter/. Read the readme file in this directory. Copy the programs saprouter and niping to the newly created directory /usr/sap/saprouter.

If you cannot copy the programs from sapserv3, you can copy a version (may be obsolete) from your directory /usr/sap/<SID>/SYS/exe/run.

3. In the file /users/<SID>adm/startsap_<hostname>_<instance number>, enter the following lines:

#

# Start saprouter

#

SRDIR=/usr/sap/saprouter

if [ -f $SRDIR/saprouter ] ; then

echo "\nStarting saprouter Daemon " | tee -a $LOGFILE

echo "----------------------------" | tee -a $LOGFILE

$SRDIR/saprouter -r -W 30000 -R $SRDIR/saprouttab \

| tee -a $LOGFILE &

fi

4. Maintain the route permission table in directory /usr/sap/saprouter. If you want to store the table in another directory or under a name other than saprouttab, you have to specify this using the SAProuter option -R (see Option R <routtab>).
