SAP PI 7.1 and LU6.2 protocol

Former Member

We have a new requirement to integrate SAP PI 7.1 with IBM mainframe using LU6.2 connection protocol. I searched this forum and found that it can be achieved using iWay adapter. We have interfaces that need to send data from SAP to IBM mainframe and vice-versa.

What we are not sure is, if we are going use iway adapter... does it requires any software installation on mainframe?

Our situation is, we are not allowed to do any changes or install on mainframe side. There are already several interfaces connecting IBM mainframe with other IBM systems using LU6.2 protocol. IBM mainframe would do same LU6.2 protocol connection to external system irrespective of SAP or other IBM system.

- How does LU6.2 iway adapter works?

- Does iWay LU6.2 adapter requires any software to be installed on mainframe?

- Does iWay LU6.2 adapter accommodated incoming LU6.2 connections calls coming from IBM mainframe to SAP PI 7.1?

Could you please, post your experience with LU6.2 with iway adapter and also help us to understand on above questions.

Thanks a lot in advance!

whenever you buy a 3rd party adapter i dont think you will have to do any installation on the application systems.

You will have the adapter installed on the PI server and which will enable connectivity to the appl. system
