Problems creating JCO connector

[Former Member]

We are having some problems when attempting to follow the steps indicated in the Post-Installation Slide Deck of RAR version 5.3. In step 4 (Create JCO Connectors) we are not able to create a new JCO connector associated with the given models in the WebDynpro Content Administrator. The "create" button displayed next to each model is disabled and the status indicated is "Status Unknown" (gray color).

When we test the SLD connection it is pointing to the default URL, while a different URL was specified during installation given an SLD already existed previous to SAP GRC installation.

Any ideas of where we need to be looking in order to fix this?

Hi Pablo,

This happens because your SLD bridge is not configured correctly ,

Please follow the steps as under :

Login to Visual Administrator.

Expand Navigation menu under J2EE Server Name ,

Expand Services List

Click On SLD Data Suppllier

Click On http settings tab

Enter Host name and port number , user name /password for your system connection.

Click Save.

Click on CIM Client Generation settings tabs

Enter host name port , user account details you entered in http settings tab .

Click Save.

Click Supplier ( data transfer)icon on top of pane to transfer data information you have entered in sld supplier.

A pop up window appears " trigger SLD data transfer" )

Click = yes.

A pop-up with appear indicating transfer successful.

If this window does not appear , then SLD needs to be configured properly,

launch http://<hostname>:<portnumber>/sld

Click on Administration > Initial setup

Fill in values for :

Object server name :Name of computer <SPACE> 1

E.g AG500900A 1

Gate way host : Name of computer as above.

gateway port : portnumber as used in URL .

Import software catalog check box = OK

Import SLD objects

(close to 95791 objects need to get imported , wait for sometime till they are imported )

After importing is done , refresh once.

This should resolve, however if you still face it then setup technical system at

http://<hostname>:<portnumber>/sld

HOME > Techinical systems .

Click new technical system

Select webas ABAP

the details need to be fetched from SAP R/3 system for which JCO is to be created.

thnks
