Transport to a Private Transport DirectoryLocate this document in the navigation structure

Use

If a system for which a central transport host is configured is not supposed to transport a central transport directory, then override the default values for this system.

Procedure
  • Configuring a private transport directory for all systems of a host:

    If all the systems of a host access a common transport directory, you can override the transport host specified in the domain name server locally.

    Insert the following entry in the local file %WINDIR%\system32\drivers\etc\hosts:

    <IP address of private transport host>

    <TCP/IP name of private transport host>

    SAPTRANSHOST

    Example

    The following is an example of an entry in the file %WINDIR%\system32\drivers\etc\hosts:

    155.56.1.74

    trans01

    SAPTRANSHOST

    Note End the file hosts with a blank line.
  • Configuring a private transport directory for one system of a host:

    Set the parameters DIR_TRANS and transdir to the new transport directory for the single system.
