Service Maintenance

Use the Service Maintenance function in the Service Builder to register and maintain each service in an SAP NetWeaver Gateway system. This function also enables you to maintain services created and redefined directly in the Service Builder (in an SAP Business Suite backend system) as opposed to navigating to another system such as an SAP NetWeaver Gateway hub system. The Service Maintenance offers the following functions:

• Register the service in an SAP NetWeaver Gateway system.

• View all the SAP NetWeaver Gateway systems in which the service is registered.

• View the error log of the service in the registered SAP NetWeaver Gateway systems.

• View the service document.

• View the service activation status of the service in the registered SAP NetWeaver Gateway systems.

To maintain a service in the Service Builder, proceed as follows:

1. Log onto the SAP NetWeaver Gateway system.

2. Open transaction SEGW.

   The SAP NetWeaver Gateway Service Builder opens.

3. Create a new project. See Creating a Service Builder Project for more information.

4. Generate the service if the service it is not already generated. See Runtime Artifacts for information about generating services.

5. Expand the Service Maintenance folder in the tree view.

6. Double-click on the Service Maintenance folder to view the configured systems in the mass maintenance view.

   The mass maintenance view displays the following details:

   Table 1: Details of the Mass Maintenance View

   Registration Status	This is an Indicator that represents the registration status of the service in the selected system. The statuses are as follows: Service Registered from this system - The service is registered from the current system. Service with the same name registered from another system - There may be instances when a service with the same name as your service is already registered in the target SAP NetWeaver system. In such instances this status is shown. Service not registered - The service is not yet not registered in this system. You can proceed and register the service in the current system. Could not retrieve the registration status - There may be instances when the target system's status could not be retrieved due to some technical reasons, for example, due to system unavailability or authorization failure.

7. Right click the system in which you would like to register the service and select Register.

   Alternatively, you can select the system and choose the Register button in the mass maintenance view.

   The Select System Alias window displays.

   Note

   The System Alias window displays only if there is more than one system that points to the system from which you are trying to register the service. If only one system applies, the System Alias window is not displayed since this system is selected as default.

9. Choose Continue.

   The Add Service window displays.
