Updating Server Connection PropertiesLocate this document in the navigation structure

Configure the production version of server connection properties. Typically, the endpoint and role mapping a developer would use are not the same for a production system. Administrators must reset these properties accordingly.

Context

This step allows you to change connection profiles used for development (design time) to an appropriate server-side connection. For example, your development environment might permit access to certain systems that the SAP Mobile Server prohibits.
Note If the connection properties of an MBO or operation use credentials that have been customized manually by a developer, the back-end data sources connection properties of these MBOs and operations cannot be updated by an administrator when using the Deploy Wizard.

Procedure

  1. On the left pane, select an MBO or an operation.
  2. Review the connection properties.
  3. Depending on how the properties are configured, choose an appropriate option:
    • If the properties are configured by the developer as a set of connection properties, you can edit properties as needed. To edit a property, click a field in the Value column and change the value as required.
    • If the properties are configured as an endpoint, choose an existing server connection to use. You cannot alter any of these properties.

      If the package contains MBOs that belong to an EIS managed cache group, you can set or change the Web Service endpoint. This endpoint is used by SAP Mobile Server to send a notification to inform the EIS of the availability of updates. For more information, see EIS Managed Cache Group Policy in SAP Mobile WorkSpace - Mobile Business Object Development .

  4. When connection properties change for an MBO, you can apply the changes to operations as well by clicking the corresponding check-box at the bottom of the table. When connection properties change for an operation, you can apply the changes to the MBO or to other operations by clicking the corresponding check-box at the bottom of the table.
  5. Click Next.

Results

The connection properties are updated. The changes you make are displayed in the Summary page in the Endpoint Updates section.
