Tracing IGS connection used

[Former Member]

Hi,

We have installed new NW2004s system and are finding out that our graphic fonts are not coming as they should. We use an external IGS windows based server. I know that while installing new 2004s system a new UNIX based IGS is automatically installed.

Can anybody tell me how I can trace which IGS server the system is using?

Thanks

Hi,

First check out this file for the port number of igs.

\usr\sap\<SID>\JC00\igs\conf\igs.xml

then

http://(hostname):(igsport)

The port number is fine. We already have a RFC dest to the windows server. The graphs shown in BW reports are coming discolored and I need to find out whether its using the UNIX IGS or windows.

The output of the igs.xml can be also found out by running report:

GRAPHICS_IGS_ADMIN and here is the output

Hi,

use the report GRAPHICS_IGS_ADMIN to see information about the IGS connected to your system.

If you need more information (IP address, platform) use transaction sm59 and check the RFC destionation IGS_RFC_DEST (look for 'target system').

Please also note that only IGS 6.40 uses igs.xml. IGS 7.00 is configured via the systems profile parameters.
