Creating a Quick ConfigurationLocate this document in the navigation structure

Create a Relay Server configuration primarily with system defaults, and create outbound enabler (OE) processes for each SAP Mobile Server.

Procedure

  1. In the navigation pane, click the SAP Mobile Server cluster name.
  2. In the administration pane, click the Relay Servers tab.
  3. Click Quick Configure.
  4. Specify these property values:
    Values vary for load balanced environments. If you do not configure load balancer values, outbound enablers bypass the load balancer and high availability is compromised if a direct Relay Server connection fails.
    • Host if the Relay Server farm has a load balancer in front of it, the host name or IP address of the load balancer. Otherwise, the host name or IP address of a single Relay Server.
    • HTTP port if the Relay Server farm has a load balancer in front of it, the port of the load balancer. Otherwise, the Relay Server HTTP port.
    • HTTPS port if the Relay Server farm has a load balancer in front of it, the port of the load balancer. Otherwise, the Relay Server HTTPS port.
    • URL suffix the URL suffix used by the Outbound Enabler to connect to a Relay Server. The value you set depends on whether Relay Server is installed on IIS or Apache hosts. For IIS, use /ias_relay_server/server/rs_server.dll . For Apache use/srv/iarelayserver/.
    • Replication or Messaging or Web Service (for scale-out nodes) farm token the security token used by the Outbound Enabler to authenticate its connection with the Relay Server. Assign a token string (up to 2048 characters); one token can be shared by all farm types. The replication, messaging, and webservice farm token values can be the same.
    • (Optional) Description a user-defined description of the Relay Server.
  5. (Optional) Select Advanced settings and specify these property values:
    • HTTP user user name for OE authentication on the Web server (Relay Server host).
    • HTTP password password for OE authentication on the Web server.
  6. (Optional) Configure connection values to required Internet proxy servers:
    • Proxy server host host name of the Internet proxy server.
    • Proxy server port connection port on the Internet proxy server.
    • HTTP proxy user user name for OE authentication on the Internet proxy server.
    • HTTP proxy password password for OE authentication on the Internet proxy server.
  7. Click OK to generate a Relay Server configuration, and the OE processes for each SAP Mobile Server.

Results

Properties in the [backend_farm] and [backend_server] sections are populated automatically, based on the SAP Mobile Server cluster name and host name.

An outbound enabler instance is automatically created for the RBS and MBS synchronization ports, and for each enabled HTTP/HTTPS port for the SAP Mobile Server host. For scale-out nodes, an outbound enabler instance is automatically created for each enabled HTTP/HTTPS port. The outbound enablers are not started.

Next Steps

Review the values in the Relay Server configuration file, and edit if necessary.
