Adding a BW Workbook to the SAP Gateway

Dear SDNers,
I am trying to assign a BW Workbook ("WB" report type) in the "Reporting Administration > Report settings > Manage reports and their properties" section of the Gateway, but the system doesn't recognize the tehcnical name...
Have you already experienced this issue?
Many thanks
Thibaud

Hi,
adding a value as default value for a variable is only relevant for the selection screen.
If u want to define # in the navigation pane u can do that there and save the workbook.
Then # is saved as filter on workbook lvl, but its changeable by the user.
Hint: In analysis mode disable "initial query view on refresh" in dataprovider settings of the analysis grid.
Regards
Tobias
P.S. Giving points is the way to say thx in SDN!!!

Registering a program on the SAP gateway

Hi All
I have to setup an interface to an external application from SAP using ALE and IDocs. The external application needs to register an instance on the SAP gateway server. If this is complete then you only need to setup an RFC connection with a programID (The ID that is used in the gateway instance) and it will allow a connection between SAP and the external application.
The problem I am having is that I dont know how to register the external application on the SAP gateway. Can anyone help me with this problem?
Thank you.

How to find the Values of SAP Gateway Server Host and Gateway Service Valu

Hi All,
I installed SAPR/3 4.7 EE on Windows. For configuring SLD and LDAP i am unable to give the SAP Gateway Server Host and Gateway Service values.
Can any one plz suggest me how to find these values.
Regds

Hello, SAP Gateway Server Host and Gateway Service are used to set up rfc connectivity, that is the host name and the system number where your sld and ldap is responding, if you have no sld and no ldap , just simply uncheck that options while installing.
Have a nice week end, Luciano.

Deploying SAPUI5 applications on SAP Gateway as the application server

Hi,
We are just trying to ramp up on Fiori architecture and utilizing SAP netweaver gateway in combination with SAPUI5 to build new generation user interfaces.
Most of the demos and tutorials I see involve utilizing the SAP netweaver gateway as the oData services provider with the UI components hosted on a separate web server like Apache. Looking at Fiori apps, it looks like they utilize the SAP gateway as the web server itself, without having the need of a separate web server.
Are there some instructions and guidelines for porting a SAPUI5 UI application (UI components) on to the SAP Netweaver gateway, similar to how Fiori does?
thanks,
Nitin

Hi Neeta,
You would need to consider additional factors to make that decision. Primary of which is what is the landscape being used by your customer. You have to consider things like how the users will access the app? What would be the security and authentication mechanism? Would you need reverse proxies or load balancing? Does the customer already have an existing infrastructure for web based applications which you should plug into?
First off, I will assume you have a NW Gateway system in place for the services that are being used by the SAPUI5 app. If that is the case, then you can certainly deploy the UI app on the same server. The process described in the blog above would end up creating a BSP application, which can then be captured in a transport and moved to QA/Production.
On the other hand, if your customer has already has an existing infrastructure for hosting and serving up Web based applications, you may want to leverage that existing infrastructure instead.
You can get in touch with me if you would like to discuss further.
thanks,
Nitin

SAP Gateway- environmental variables not loaded when running brconnect

Hello
i have installed the Sap gateway on MSCS
and the RFC check in sm59 is successful,
However when i run a job in db13 it fails with "brconnect is not recognized as ......... "
<sid>adm has all environmental variables set correctly
SAPService<SID> has them too
when i run brconnect on OS level it works fine with <sid>adm and SAPService<SID>
however if create a brconnect.cmd file where i specify the command as
SET ORACLE_SID= ....
SET SAPDATA_HOME=....
C:\windows\sapcluster\brconnect.exe ...........
and run it in sm69 it works fine
Any ideas how to solve this, seems the variables are not taken when running sapxpg
, i don't want to edit the SDBAC for every command
P.S
set from sm69 returns only the system wide variables, however i have the two systems on this host, and can not make the environmental variables for ORACLE_SID and SAPDATA_HOME system wide as this will cause problem with the other sap system
Edited by: Yavor Markov on Apr 12, 2010 6:07 PM

Hi Markov,
Can you tell us with which user id you have installed SAP as well as check the sap services are running with which user id, if it is not <sid>adm then you have to check the environment variables of that user.
Also you can try adding c:\windows\sapcluster in PATH environment variable.

SharePoint 2013 and SAP connectivity / SAP Gateway for Microsoft and Duet Enterprise 2.0

Hello,
we are investigating the connection possibilities of SharePoint 2013 with SAP.
The basic scenario in our cases involves the transfer of documents and/or metadata from SharePoint to SAP possibly through a Workflow in SharePoint.
From my research the most promising official (no 3d-party) interfaces that can be used are the Duet Enterprise 2.0 and the SAP Gateway for Microsoft.
From my understanding both interfaces allow only the consumption of Data from SAP to SharePoint and not vice versa. Moreover the interoperability of documents seems not be supported. Are CRUD operations from a SharePoint native lists to SAP supported?
Can someone please clarify this topics?
I have found lots of documentation concerning the interfaces but not a clear answer to this questions.
Many thanks in advance!
Ioannis

Hi Ioannis,
It seems that there is no built in method to get data from SharePoint list in SAP.
As a workaround, we can export SharePoint list to excel and then use that spread sheet as a source data in SAP.
http://scn.sap.com/thread/3467263
http://scn.sap.com/thread/3472110
As this issue is regarding to SAP, I recommend you to ask the question in the SAP:

More experts will assist you, then you will get more information relation to SAP.

Issue in registering program id to SAP gateway using JCO

Hi All,
In our java application we are registering a program id to SAP gateway so that we can listen the data sent from R/3 systems.
I need some basic information about the gateway registeration. I have following queries :-
1. If I register a program id, till what time this registeration remains in the R/3 system.
2. Is there any way to do the permanent registeration.
3. In our scenario we have clustered java server which is set up on a clustered OS. That means one java server is on one hardware machine and other java server is on another machine. Once we register a program id from one of the java server ,it
gets registered with that particular machine IP address. Now if one of the java server gets down ,other java server should start listening to SAP system. But this is not happening because our other java server is on another machine whose IP address is different and is not registered with SAP system.Is there any way to deal with this situation. One thing we could think of is to register all the machines permanently with SAP system. So that whichever machine gets down communication will not break.All the machines will remain registered in the R/3. But I am not sure how to do that.
Can anyone help me here.
Thanks and Regards,
Reena

1.) The registration remains active until you unregister it, or until the SAP gateway recognizes that the connection has been interrupted somehow. If there are multiple registrations of the same programID, this is valid for each single one. So one could say, that a programID's registration is valid as long as at least one registration is still valid.
2.) There is no such thing. What do you mean with permanent registration?
3.) You already gave the answer by yourself. Just register all RFC servers from all nodes simultaneously. The RFC requests will be dispatched to any of the nodes all the time. If one server node gets down, the connections to this particular server will be interrupted and it won't receive any RFC requests any longer.
And you don't know how to do that? Just start the RFC servers on all server nodes and they will register at the SAP gateway. I don't understand this question.

What could be wrong or missing in my configuration?
Regards,
Joao.

hi Joao,
check if oss note 447882 relevant
you may ask basis for help
Symptom
You want to access the customer system using the BEx Analyzer.The connenction fails:The system displays the error RFC_ERROR_COMMUNICATION.In the detail screen, the system displays message "Partner not reached" (host 192.168.4.2, service sapgw 00).
Other terms
SAP Gateway, RFC_ERROR_COMMUNICATION, partner not reached
Reason and Prerequisites
The SAP gateway host is deactivated or the TCP/IP port 33xx (where xx corresponds to the system number) is not open.
Solution
Issue statement ping <IP address> (In this example:192.168.4.2) No reply: Boot SAP Gateway host required.
An answer:Check whether the TCP/IP port 33xx is open (where xx corresponds to the system number) and start the SAP gateway.
The TCP/IP port is also partially defined in the services file as an sapgw<SID> or sapgwxx entry (where xx corresponds to the system number). The services file is in the Windows directory or in WinNT/System32/drivers/etc.

SAP Gateways - rdisp/max_gateways

Hello RFC-guys,
i have a question regarding the SAP gateways.
Today we have faced an situation where we were unable to open RFC connections to a specific application server.
We recieved an error wich says that the max number of sap gateways was reached.
The target system has the following entries in the syslog:
=> Maximum number of 100 connectable SAP gateways reached
The gatway trace file shows the following:
Wed Feb 27 13:55:48 2008
***LOG Q14=> GwIConnectHandle, max gateways (100) [gwxxrd.c     8397]
LOCATION    SAP-Gateway on host hostname / sapgw11

RC          631
MODULE      gwxxrd.c
LINE        8398
COUNTER     148743
After a while the RFC connection worked again.. the syslog message was pointing to the parameter "rdisp/max_gateways". rdisp/max_gateways is set to 100 in our system.
The sapnote #978078 is not valid for me, because i have a higher patchleve of kernel 7.00
I want to know the following 2 things:
How can i monitor the gateway to gateway connections (is this possible with SMGW too?)
Have you seen this problem in your systems too and how did you solved it?
Points will be rewarded..
Thanks and Regards
Stefan

Stefan
When you are in SMGW, select GOTO->Logged On Clients - this menu will show you all the connections to all systems. The entry screen to SMGW shows connections from the server that you are on to other servers and itself.
Hope that helps somewhat. It is hard to believe that you have more than 100 concurrent connections in your gateway unless you configured something to be very high for connections to external systems. I would check your logged on clients and see if there are a number of replications.
I would assume that you need to update the parameter CPIC_MAX_CONV with this error (should have shown-up when you did the system check for the installation) to be larger than 100 - I would set this to 1k or higher on PI systems or other high communication environments.
This is not an SAP Parameter - but an OS Parameter - check OSS Note: 314530
If this solves your issue, please set this thread to answered.

No ehs management server is currently logged on at SAP Gateway

Hi,
I have installed EHS management server and WWI server on a separate server. The RFC between ECC Dev to WWI server is running fine. The ECC Dev server is able to call the registered program on SAPRFC.ini.
But when I run TCD CGSADM notthing is coming up and it throws error as "No ehs management server is currently logged on at the sap gateway".
I have checked and done whatever was required as per the sapnote 839750, 580586, but still CGSADM is not working.
Also in SMGW i can see the EHS server as Remote Gateway.
Kindly let me know how to rectify the Issue.
Thank You!

Hello

What is SAP Gateway?

What is the use of SAP gateway and how we use it

Each instance of an SAP System has a gateway. The gateway enables communication between work processes and external programs, as well as communication between work processes from different instances or SAP Systems.
Gateway Processes
The SAP Gateway is made up of various processes:
· Gateway read process
· Gateway monitor
These processes are described in the following topics.
Earlier gateway releases that support DCAM and SNA have additional gateway work processes (gwwp, gwwp.exe).
Gateway Read Process
Gateway read (gwrd, gwrd.exe) is the main process in the gateway system.
It is started by the application server (dispatcher) and checked by it periodically.
The gateway reader receives and processes all CPI-C requests.
If the executable gwrd program is called without parameters or with the switch -help, the program outputs a description of the possible command parameters, as well as all the patches.
Gateway Monitor
The gateway monitor (gwmon, gwmon.exe) is used to analyze and administer the SAP Gateway.
When you start it, you initially get a list of active CPI-C connections. You can call up all the other monitor functions via a menu.
You can monitor the gateway from the SAP System (transaction SMGW) or from the operating system.
Regards
Abhishek
