Mail or File Adapter are not running without SLD

Hi,

is it correct, that all adapters on java stack are not running while where is no connection to SLD? (Idoc and http are working because they run in abap stack)

We have just one SLD (no replicated SLD) for our PI 7.0 and we can see, that mail or file adapter are getting errors if the sld instance is down.

What can we do to avoid this behaviour because the admins wanna patch the SolMan and the SLD is running there.

Is it possible to run the integration engine without SLD?

Thanx a lot

Wolfgang

Yes the SLD is required for adapters in java stack. The adapter engine is part of XI Domain which is defined in SLD

>>(Idoc and http are working because they run in abap stack)

They may be working but soon IR and ID will start failing (because they to read from SLD and it will not be successful)

>>Is it possible to run the integration engine without SLD?

Unfortunately no.

SLD lookups are made at various levels of message excution. When message pass from Adapter Engine to Inetgration Engine, SLD lookups helps in identifying the correct address of IE. Therefore it will always affect the java (AE) based adapters.

What can we do to avoid this behaviour because the admins wanna patch the SolMan and the SLD is running there.

Its better not to try avoiding this standard behavior.

For your patching requirement, you must perform it when the message traffic is low e.g. during weekends. Usually everywhere such patching and upgrade are done on weekends as the downtime is acceptable in that duration.

hello,

SLD hold the information about systems present in your landscapes which also includes location /address of u r adapter engine.

If your SLD is down integration engine will not get the adapter engines address which in turn will result in message delivery failure.

Also ABAP proxies will also not function if the SLD is down.
