Dynamic configuration of receiver communicaton channel?

I have files, Header line tells which server it should go.(Like ip address and port). How can dinamically configure the receiver communication channel.
Thank You

Hi,
I have very similar requirement, In my scenario I need to pick up files from 4 static locations and based on the file name and pick up type(file/ftp) I can find out the destination's connectivity information from a Cross-Referencing table(Based on MS-SQL Database table- I can get this using look API) in this table we maintaining more than 100 destinations(host/user_name/password etc).
Now I need to set the connectivity information dynamically at runtime. I know this is not possible with Standard XI but does anyone thinks this is possible by any technical way using with XI.. Adapter Modules or Java Proxies?
This is very Critical to win the war with other middleware tools. Please let me know your thoughts and comments...
thanks,
Laxman Molugu

Doubt om Dynamic Configuration of receiver file

Hello ,
for Acheiving the Dynamic configuration of receiver file name ,adapter specific message attribute is used...But how to suppress the name of file in the content of the Received file...
Is my question correct..do we get the file name in content of the receiver file,while using the Adapter specifc message attribute.
And another question ,in the Variable substitution ...do we get the above problem,then how to tackle the situation to suprress the file name in the payload of receiver file.

HI,
You can handle the dynamic file name via Dynamic configuration or with the help of Variable Substitution.
Please refer
have a look
Dynamic File Name using XI 3.0 SP12 Part - I --> Dynamic File Name using XI 3.0 SP12 Part u2013 I
Dynamic file name(XSLT Mapping with Java Enhancement) using XI 3.0 SP12 Part -II --> Dynamic file name(XSLT Mapping with Java Enhancement) using XI 3.0 SP12 Part -II
With Variable Substituion, you may need to supress the filename

Let me know if you need anymore info.

Dynamic configuration of Receiver FTP File channel

Hi,
The scenario is sending an IDOC from an R/3 system (using IDOC adapter) to a FTP file system. I want to dynamically configure the filename and the target directory in the following cases
1. With filename and the target directory coming as a part of the source IDOC
    structure
2. There is mapping involved (pass thru) and the file name and target directory are
    NOT a part of the source IDOC structure.
I have seen blogs which explains the situation using mapping for File-To-File scenario (Not IDOC-To-File scenario) and some blogs explaining for Http adapter and email adapter, but not for the above scenarios for IDOC-To-File Scenarion.
Your input is highly appreciated.
Regards
Ganesh

hi
use Varable susbtituion in receiver file adapter
you set the Enable indicator, you can enter variables for the Target Directory and File Name Scheme. Enter the names of the variables and references in the table.
●      Enter each variable that you reference in the Target Directory and File Name Scheme fields without the surrounding percentage sign under Name of Variables in the table.
The variables can refer to attributes of the message header or elements of the message payload.
○       If the variables are to refer to an attribute of the message header, add the prefix message: to the name of the variable under Reference. You can specify the following attributes of the message header:
sender_party, sender_service, receiver_party, receiver_service, interface_name, interface_namespace,
message_id (message ID with hyphens, for example 9fbe1ff1-9a0d-11d9-8665-cbf10a126331)
message_id_hex (message ID in hexadecimal format, for example 9fbe1ff19a0d11d98665cbf10a126331)
For example, if you want to specify the interface name from the message header in the target directory or in the file name scheme, enter message:interface_name as the reference.

How to pass dynamic filename to Receiver JMS channel

Hi experts,
I want to pass the dynamic filename to receiver JMS message Properties.
for example
I am passing directory name via adapter module AF_Modules/DynamicConfigurationBean with key and value combination like below. How to pass dynamic filename value to a dynamic property ( say DCJMSMessageProperty1)
eg.
key.0 - >insert http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/JMS DCJMSMessageProperty0
value.0 - > testdirectory ( which is static value)
Note: Im have not created any ESR object . i just have to bypass the file to a jms queue. I have used AAE integrated configuration scenario ( file to jms )

Already given link for the dynamic configuration code snippet in the earlier reply... Below is the code snippet
Note: Use Adapter Specific Message Attributes for the target Communication Channel(CC).Check the indicator for filename in the advanced tab of CC
//UDF code
String filename="";
String NameSpace = "http:/"+"/sap.com/xi/XI/System/JMS";
try{
      DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) param.get(
        StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
      DynamicConfigurationKey key = DynamicConfigurationKey.create( "http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File",   "FileName");
       // read filename value
       filename = conf.get(key);
      // So far we extracted filename value .. now do your logic something like this...
      DynamicConfigurationKey key2 = DynamicConfigurationKey.create(NameSpace,"yourjmsvalue goes here");
       conf.put(key2,filename);
     } catch(Exception e){

How To Configure XI Receiver Communication Channel ?

Hi Expert,
I have a Scenario wherein i have 2 XI systems & i need to pass the messages between these 2 XI / PI system using XI Adapter. Can any body tell me how to configure the XI Adapter Step by Step. Is it required to Create the SM59 RFC destination with type H. Pl. Explain me in detailed.
Regards
Umesh

Hi Umesh,
In creating XI receover communication channel, you have 2 options for Addressing Type:
1. URL Address - no need to create RFC destination. You just have to specify the XI receiver host name, HTTP port, path (/sap/xi/engine?type=receiver), Authentication data (logon details for SAP Client number of the PI system).
2. HTTP Destination - create RFC destination in SXMB_ADM and specify the RFC destination name in your receiver communication channel.
For SAP documentation, see this link: http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nwpi711/helpdata/en/e1/091640a991c742e10000000a1550b0/frameset.htm
Hope this helps.

Dynamic Configuration of Mail receiver Communication Channel

Hi,
like in /people/william.li/blog/2006/04/18/dynamic-configuration-of-some-communication-channel-parameters-using-message-mapping for http receiver CC, i am trying to do header customisation, with XHeaderName1 for mail header fields like content-type, content-disposition, but it doesn't works ...
in my mapping i've added :
> (...)
> DynamicConfigurationKey cDisposition = DynamicConfigurationKey.create("http:/""/sap.com/xi/XI/System/Mail", "XHeaderName1");+
> dynaConf.put(cDisposition, "attachment;filename=myFile.txt");
in Communication Channel ASMA i've added variable header : XHeaderName1 --> Content-Disposition
in monitoring i see that XHeaderName1 is filled with attachment;filename=myFile.txt
but in the mail send like this, this configuration has no effect
Someone can help me ?
Edited by: MedAmine on Aug 19, 2009 3:20 PM

Only one standard mail header field can be influenced: this is indeed "Content-Disposition".
You have done halve way, the only thing you have missed is to set the additional parameter 'OMail.AddContentDisposition' to false within 'Advanced Mode'.
Have a look at this WiKi:

Dynamic Configuration for two file adapters communication channels

Hello Experts!!!!!!
     In one of the interface in my landscape, I am using two file adapters for creating two files with different names and at two different destination on F.T.P.
However the receiver service for both the communication channel are same.
In message mapping I am using multi mapping to create two files out a single message.
Now i have a requirement of changing file path and file name using dynamic configuration for both the comm channel.
When i doing dynamic coniguration for both the comm. channel. My interface is creating two files but with same name and on same destination which is set for second communication channel through dynamic configuration.
Here, I guess the second dynamic configuration is over writing the first dynamic configuration and hence creating two files with same name and at same destination.
Please suggest, if separate dynamic configuration for separate communication channel of same receiver service can be done?
Thanks & Regards,
Amol

Thanks for your prompt responses!!!!!
    Is there any way, By which in dynamic configuration I can find out the communication channel name and then change its parameter.
I mean if iam using say comm. channel A and B.
Then in dynamic configuration for A, I will first take communication channel A by calling it and then change its path/file name.
and then do samething for comm. channel B in its dynamic conf.

Amol

Getting an error in Dynamic Configuration

Hi Guys,
I need to dynamically post the file into different directories based on the file in the source payload.
In Receiver File Communication Channel
Target Directory : *
Filename : *
Checked the ASMA Attributes for filename and directory
Iam refering this weblog
/people/william.li/blog/2006/04/18/dynamic-configuration-of-some-communication-channel-parameters-using-message-mapping
In the mapping
<filename> ---> UDF --> topnode of target message.
My UDF is as below
public String Directory(String a,Container container){
DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) container.getTransformationParameters().get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
DynamicConfigurationKey key = DynamicConfigurationKey.create( "http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File", "FileName");
DynamicConfigurationKey key1 = DynamicConfigurationKey.create( "http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File", "Directory");
String FileName = conf.get(key);
FileName = a;
conf.put(key, FileName);
String Directory = conf.get(key1);
Directory = "/SAPInterface/XI/PPD/DHX/out";
conf.put(key1, Directory);
return " ";
But in runtime(moni) iam getting error as
com.sap.aii.af.ra.ms.api.MessagingException: The Adapter Message Property 'FileName' was configured as mandatory element, but there is no 'DynamicConfiguration' element in the XI Message header: com.sap.aii.adapter.file.configuration.DynamicConfigurationException: The Adapter Message Property 'FileName' was configured as mandatory element, but there is no 'DynamicConfiguration' element in the XI Message header
Please suggest me how to correct this.
Thanks
Srinivas

Hi Srinivas,
You said you are having dynamic directories to post the file. But I see you hardcorded or put constant for directory which is /SAPInterface/XI/PPD/DHX/out. I think you need to put //SAPInterface/XI/PPD/DHX/out.
Try this in udf:
public String Directory(String a,Container container){
DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) container.getTransformationParameters().get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
DynamicConfigurationKey key = DynamicConfigurationKey.create( "http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File", "FileName");
DynamicConfigurationKey key1 = DynamicConfigurationKey.create( "http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File", "Directory");
String FileName = conf.get(key);
FileName = a;
conf.put(key, FileName);
Directory = "//SAPInterface/XI/PPD/DHX/out";
conf.put(key1, Directory);
return " ";
Put FileName and Directory in file name and directory paramters in receiver communication cahnnel and cehck.

Dynamic Configuration of SOAP Action

Hello Everyone,
I am currently working on a project which requires us to set the SOAP action dynamically:
I did follow the guidelines mentioned in the following links
Dynamic Configuration of Some Communication Channel Parameters using Message Mapping
Dynamic webservice selection
The process which we are using is as follows
We are creating the following UDF and mapping the root nodes in message mapping using it
DynamicConfigurationKey keyURL = DynamicConfigurationKey.create("http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/SOAP","THeaderSOAPACTION");
// access dynamic configuration
DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) container
.getTransformationParameters()
.get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
conf.put(keyURL,"RetrieveList");
return "";
In the Receiver Comm Channel we are setting the use adapter specific identifiers option and the use variable binding option. We are leaving the SOAP Action field blank.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes" ?>

<SOAP:Fault xmlns:SOAP="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
<faultcode>SOAP:Server</faultcode>
<faultstring>String index out of range: 0</faultstring>
<faultactor>Server</faultactor>
</SOAP:Fault>
Now we tested the scenario using TCP Mon and we identified that for the value of SOAP Action we are getting the following results
SOAPAction:
SOAPAction: actual value
It means that 2 SOAP Action are generated one being the empty SOAP Action from Receiver Comm Channel and the other being the one generated using UDF.
Can anyone please update us on if our steps are proper or is there a way to supress the SOAP Action which we left empty in the receiver comm channel.
Your help is truly appreciated.
Thanks.
Kiran

Did you follow all the three steps I have pointed in the thread,
1. In the Receiver SOAP adapter,Select options ,
a) Use Adapter Specific Message Attributes
b) variable Transport Binding.
c) Keep the SOAP action field empty.
In the receiver SOAP adapter, make sure that the soap action is empty and the above options are selected.
In this case, the SOAP action from the UDF will be choosen.
But, if you enter something in the receiver SOAP adapter's SOAP action this will be treated as the SOAP action rather than the UDF code.

Bhavesh

Dynamic Configuration in SAP PI 7.3

Hello,
I am doing one file to file scenario in PI 7.3 (Java Stack only).
There is one requirement i.e. The output file name will change according to Development, Quality and Production. Prefix will be added to the outputput file name according to Development, Quality & production.
I am new in SAP PI . Please suggest me what to do for the above requirement.
Thanks & Regards,
Moumita

Hi Moumita,
Please find the details
1) read the source directory and based on source directory name set the file name in dynamic configuration
In sender communication channel select the ASMA parameter Directory and read the dynamic configuration as below
String devFileName = "DEV_out.txt";
String qaFileName = "QA_out.txt";
String regFileName = "Reg_out.txt";
String directory= "";
DynamicConfiguration conf1 = (DynamicConfiguration) container.getTransformationParameters().get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
DynamicConfigurationKey key1 = DynamicConfigurationKey.create( "http:/"+"/sap.com/xi/XI/System/File","Directory");
directory= conf1.get(key1);
If (directory.equals("DEV"))
DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) container.getTransformationParameters().get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
DynamicConfigurationKey FileName = DynamicConfigurationKey.create("http:/"+"/sap.com/xi/XI/System/File","FileName");
conf.put(FileName, devFileName);
return "";
else
If (directory.equals("QA"))
DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) container.getTransformationParameters().get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
DynamicConfigurationKey FileName = DynamicConfigurationKey.create("http:/"+"/sap.com/xi/XI/System/File","FileName");
conf.put(FileName, qaFileName);
return "";
else
If (directory.equals("Reg"))
DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) container.getTransformationParameters().get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
DynamicConfigurationKey FileName = DynamicConfigurationKey.create("http:/"+"/sap.com/xi/XI/System/File","FileName");
conf.put(FileName, regFileName);
return "";
2) read the system id and based on that set the file name in dynamic configuration.
String System = System.getProperty("SAPSYSTEMNAME");
String devFileName = "DEV_out.txt";
String qaFileName = "QA_out.txt";
String regFileName = "Reg_out.txt";
If (System.equals("DEV"))
DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) container.getTransformationParameters().get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
DynamicConfigurationKey FileName = DynamicConfigurationKey.create("http:/"+"/sap.com/xi/XI/System/File","FileName");
conf.put(FileName, devFileName);
return "";
else
If (System.equals("QA"))
DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) container.getTransformationParameters().get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
DynamicConfigurationKey FileName = DynamicConfigurationKey.create("http:/"+"/sap.com/xi/XI/System/File","FileName");
conf.put(FileName, qaFileName);
return "";
else
If (System.equals("Reg"))
DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) container.getTransf
ormationParameters().get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
DynamicConfigurationKey FileName = DynamicConfigurationKey.create("http:/"+"/sap.com/xi/XI/System/File","FileName");
conf.put(FileName, regFileName);
return "";

'Use Temporary File' in Receiver File channel

hi all,
I am facing a strange issue with receiver file channel which I am not sure if somene had already faced. I couldnt find any help from blogs..!
I have configured the Receiver File channel with Write mode as 'Use Temporary File' with a temporary file name(say tmp.xml) scheme and Empty-Message Handling set to 'Write Empty File'
When the scenario is executed, its so happening that the temporary file of 0 bytes(empty file) is being created as tmp<msgID>.xml before the actual file is being completely written. It is expected that once the Actual file is completely written, the tmp file should be deleted, but here is not the case.Thus causing both the files being present in the target location. This is not happening often though.
As the receiving application is processing all files from the target direcotry, the file is getting errored out in the target application.
I think the 'Write Empty File' has nothing to do with this as the option 'Write Empty File' is for empty payloads resulting from the message mapping.
Please correct me if am wrong and also provide me the inputs on my issue. Am on PI7.0
thanks in advance,

Hi Tilak,
this is real time interface
real time by using a file... that's a non-sens according to me. You should use a non physical solution (web service, JMS, JDBC, etc...) but a not a file. well... Anyway, you can image that the receiver application schedule the folder every 30s or every 1min, that's almost a real time. Real time is mainly a conceptual view (only synchronous exchange needs really real time). Morevoer, if you really wanted a real time, you should not add a tool like PI (or other) between your source and your target system, the more we have systems, the less it's efficient (in term of delay and response time!).
Even if we propose that the receiver application should have a condition to its script to avoid picking the tmp*.xml files, after a period of time there would be a chance that the *tmp files may increase in number..
No ! coz if my theory is good, if your receiver application does not pick-up tmp.xml, that means this file is not currently treated and so PI is authorized to delete it. So no increase of tmp.xml files in this folder.
Another solution: to create the target file without option "temporary", but to create it in another folder than this one scheduled by your receiver application, and use an OS command AFTER processing, in your receiver CC, which move the created file from the "temp" folder to the target folder.
