Can we change the WDA generated URL to custom URL to start the application

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

I have a transaction code to open a webdynpro application Y_Test within sapgui.

This is the URL i am getting under production system:

http://stp08a00.company.com:8014/sap/bc/webdynpro/sap/y_test

My company has 25 servers, and some ports are not open to all.

So whenever the users who comes through Citrix, tries to run the tcode, it cause page cannot be display errors if they fall under the specific ports which are not open to Citrix.

My company has VIP URL for load balancing, so there is no need to specify ports here.

For Development : http://w3.d08.company.com/sap/bc/webdynpro/sap/y_test

For Quality : http://w3.q08.company.com/sap/bc/webdynpro/sap/y_test

For Production : http://w3.p08.companyo.com/sap/bc/webdynpro/sap/y_test

Is there any way to change the URL to redirect to the VIP URL after running the tcode based on D,Q and P system

Your help is highly appreciated.

Thanks,

Raj

You should change the profile parameter ICM/HOST_NAME_FULL to control the generation of the URL.

Hi Thomas,

Can you please elaborate, where to maintain profile parameter ICM/HOST_NAME_FULL? Are the Basis people responsible to maintain this?

Thanks,

Raj

Yes, profile parameters should be maintained by your Basis Administrator.

Hi,

We have a similar scenario. We want to use F5 for load balancing bapis exposed as web services.

When the user generate the WSDL using WSAdmin or SOAManager, the URL of the WSDL and within the WSDL is the the name of the server along with the port. We would like the URL to be load balancing URL or the VIP address. I believe that this can be done using icm/host_name_full as you had suggested in the previous post. But will adding the VIP address in icm/host_name_full impact anything else? It this parameter just for URL formulation or communication too?

Thanks.
