Configuring SDIC PropertiesLocate this document in the navigation structure

Use

The Serverside Development Infrastructure Client (SDIC) has a set of service properties which need to be configured before you use SDIC. These properties can be configured using the SAP NetWeaver Administrator tool.

Note

SDIC is always used in the context of a specific SIDE (for example Visual Composer). Check the documentation of the SIDE if any specific property configurations are required.

Prerequisites

You have the needed administrative privileges for the SAP NetWeaver Administrator.

Procedure

  1. Open the SAP NetWeaver Administrator tool.

    To do that, open the following URL: http://<host>:<port>/nwa .

  2. Choose Start of the navigation path Configuration  Next navigation step Infrastructure  Next navigation step  Java System Properties End of the navigation path.

    Java System Properties view allows you to change properties for different services and applications.

  3. Choose the required instance from Templates .

  4. Choose the Services tab and select SDIC Service from the service list.

    This displays the SDIC properties under Extended Details .

    Caution

    Any change to properties affects all the SIDEs using SDIC, so these properties should be configured only by the SDIC administrator.

You can configure the following properties for SDIC:

Recommendation

We recommend that you do not change the default values.

Note

To use Visual Composer set sdic.nwdiservers.max.checkin.attempts value to 10.

SDIC Properties

Name

Default Value

Description

sdic.cache.devconfig.timeout

30

Refresh timeout (in minutes) for the cached development configuration. The cache is marked as obsolete after this timeout period. The next request fetches the development configuration from the NWDI server and caches it again until the timeout occurs again.

sdic.default.devconfig

<Domain track system>

Default development configuration to be used

The name of the development configuration that is used if the application using SDIC provides no means to define development configuration on its own.

The development configuration has the format <Domain ID of CMS>_<Track ID>_D, where <Track ID> is the ID of the track.

For example: F50_VCTESTID_D.

sdic.nwdiservers.admin.user

<service user>

The name of the user with access to NWDI servers. However, this user should not exist in the AS Java where the SDIC is hosted.

This user is used by SDIC for the invalidation task when state store is switched on. Do not change this property.

sdic.nwdiservers.connecttimeout

10000

Initial connection timeout (in milliseconds) of the connection between the SDIC server and the NWDI servers.

sdic.nwdiservers.expiretimeout

10000

Expiry timeout (in milliseconds) of the connection between the SDIC server and the NWDI servers.

sdic.nwdiservers.max.checkin.attempts

3

Maximum number of times SDIC will attempt a check-in in case the check-in failed due to concurrency issues. At least one attempt takes place. To use Visual Composer set the property value to 10 .

sdic.nwdiservers.readtimeout

300000

Read timeout (in milliseconds) after which the session between the SDIC and the AS Java server elapses.

sdic.sld.url

http://<host>:<port>

System Landscape Directory (SLD) URL of the AS Java server on which the SAP NetWeaver development Infrastructure (NWDI) server is running.
