We are planning for a central SLD on a WAS Java system and also local SLD on solman with all the landscape details synced with central SLD, in this regard i  have few questions:
We have a WAS Java system where central SLD will be setup.There are 4 systems that needs to be registered in central SLD, ECC(pure Abap), PI(Dual Stack), Portal(Pure java). Solman(dual stack).please correct me if teh below process is correct for regitsering the ystems
1.ECC - In RZ70->under SLD Bridge gateway Information-> Central SLD host name
2.PI - ABAP stack - In RZ70->SLD Bridge gateway Information-> Central SLD host name, Java stack -Visual Admin->server noe->services->SLd data Supplier->http settings->Central SLD host name, port no, user and passwd
3.Portal - Visual Admin->server noe->services->SLd data Supplier->http settings->Central SLD host name, port no, user and passwd
4.PI - ABAP stack in RZ70->under SLD Bridge gateway Information-> Central SLD host name, Java stack -Visual Admin->server noe->services->SLd data Supplier->http settings
5.my requirement is to have a local SLD in solman with all the data forwarded from central SLD to solman Local SLD , what needs to be for this
6.what is the use/purpose of SLDAPICUST , do i need to maintain any entries here too?

Hi,
The first 4 points mentioned by you in the first thread is absolutely right. You need to do all of it.
For the bridge connectivity, sorry.. In SLD goto Administration-> Data Supplier. Here you configure the bridge between the Central SLD and Solman.
SLDAPICUST is 1 of the main configurations for Tcode SLDCHECK to work fine. Once all the SLD configs are complete on the ABAP side, run Tcode SLDCHECK. This should open the SLD home page and the GUI in ABAP shows green. In case SLDAPICUST is not configured, it shows error in business systems.
