Set server side SAPUILandscape file with environment variable

Former Member

Hello

I will start by pointing out I am using SAP GUI 7.40, but without NWBC.

I know that I can set a server side SAPUILandscape.xml file by setting LandscapeFileOnServer on either

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\SAP\SAPLogon\Options (32 bits) (REG_EXPAND_SZ)

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\SAP\SAPLogon\Options (64 bits) (REG_EXPAND_SZ)

in the registry

I also know I can set the local SAPUILandscape.xml file by setting environment variable SAPLOGON_LSXML_FILE.

So far everything is written in note 2075150.

I was wondering if there is a way of setting a SERVER side SAPUILandscape.xml using an environment variable.

I prefer the use of environment variable because it doesn't allow editing on SAP GUI options, unlike the registry setting, which allows changing the options, and the only way to return to the registry path is by restoring defaults.

Thanks

Gal

Hi Gal,

you have to activate the new format with a regkey LandscapeFormatEnabled = 1.
You'll find this under HKCU\Software\SAP\SAPLogon .

This key and the mentioned environment variable allow you to config SAPGUI from serverside.

Attention:

With this settings there is no local data any more and users couldn't create fav's in saplogon.

There is no mixing up of a server-Config-data and a local-config-data.

For mixing up you have to use the regkey LandscapeFormatEnabled and LandscapeFileOnServer without the environment variable.
