RFC in IBM Websphere server

[Former Member]

Hi all,

I want to run a Java application that calls SAP RFC in an IBM Websphere server. Right now its working fine in Tomcat server.(I have installed JCO for Tomacat).

What all are the steps (intallations and configurations) I need to do in Websphere server.

I came across terms like SAPODA and JCO. Is SAP ODA neccessary??? or JCO installation alone will work?

Thanks in advance

if you are calling the RFC from applications inside J2EE runtime, JRA is the preffered way over plain JCo which suits more for standalone applications envrionment. Ref this link for JRA details.
