Configuring Special SAP GUI System Connection Properties for Remote SystemsLocate this document in the navigation structure

NWBC offers the possibility to integrate content from other systems by using RFC destinations for target systems:

  • In NWBC connections, by using the property Target System in PFCG, either for single menu entries or for a whole role

To control advanced SAP GUI connection properties like groups for load balancing , SAProuter or SNC settings which NWBC uses when running a transaction in a remote system, you have the following options:

Connection Type

Procedure

NWBC connection + Server runtime for SAP NetWeaver user interface services (starting with UI Add-On 1.0 SPS09 and SAP NetWeaver 7.4 SP08)

The administrator defines the properties in the ABAP connection type RFC destination of the target system.

NWBC connection + Server runtime for NWBC

The administrator creates one SAP GUI connection which contains the properties, and NWBC connections for all clients on all servers that are accessed with remote roles, referencing the SAP GUI connection.

Example

In this example scenario, with the system currently being used and several remote systems, you can maintain the SAP GUI Logon Description not only for the system currently being used but also for the remote systems. This allows you to configure load balancing on the client side for the SAP Logon system and also for the remote systems.

NWBC connects to the server Server_A of the system SYS. The roles for this system comprise the following remote clients and servers:

  • System RMA, server Remote_A.domain, client 000

  • System RMB, server Remote_B.domain, client 000 and client 001

You have the following options to configure load balancing for system RMA and RMB:

  • In NWBC or SAP Logon, configure two SAP Logon (SAP GUI) system connections, RMA [PUBLIC] and RMB [PUBLIC] including load balancing.

  • To achieve SAP GUI load balancing for the remote clients and server, configure NWBC connections for all clients on all servers that are accessed with remote roles:

    • Remote_A connection:

      URL: http://Remote_A.domain:port/nwbc

      Client 000

      SAP GUI Logon Description: RMA [PUBLIC]

    • Remote_B 000 connection:

      URL: http://Remote_B.domain:port/nwbc

      Client 000

      SAP GUI Logon Description: RMB [PUBLIC]

    • Remote_B 001 connection:

      URL: http://Remote_B.domain:port/nwbc

      Client 001

      SAP GUI Logon Description: RMB [PUBLIC]

    The server URL must be fully qualified with domain name.
