NetWeaver Administrator reports "SLDirectory is not accessible"

[thorsten_nordholmsbirk]

Hi,

NetWeaver Administrator (http://host:port/nwa) on our SP12 XI installation reports:

System Landscape Directory is not accessible

Only local system can be administered

The SLD is actually on the same server and is working correctly, even accoding to the WebDynpro Content Administration.

Anyone know what might be wrong?

Thanks,

Thorsten

Hi,

it should be possible to configure where the SLD is. Did you tra for that?

Hello Benny,

I am experiencing the same problem? Can you guide us, where in NWA you can configure connection to SLD?

Also, is there any documentation available describing step by step process of NWA.

Thank you in advance,

Dmitriy Mindich

Hi Dmitriy,

the setup of the NetWeaver Administrator connections to SLD is described in the Monitoring Setup Guide. There is a quick link in Service Marketplace /nwa -> media library -> documentation -> Monitoring Setup Guide.

Basically the steps to connect NWA to SLD are the following (if you have already registered the systems of your system landscape to SLD and have set up the monitoring for the systems):

- In the Visual Administrator of the Central Monitoring System (CEN)(NWA-System) under Server->Services-> SLD Data Suppliers you have to enter the CIM Client Generation Settings (http connection to SLD with User/PWD). Mark the applications "sap.com/tc_lmwebadmin_mainframewd/webdynpro/public/lib/app.jar" and

"sap.com/tc_lmwebadmin_sldwd/webdynpro/public/lib/app.jar" (This enables the NWA to get data from SLD.)

- In the ABAP Engine of CEN, the RFC connection SAPSLDAPI must be maintained, the connection data for SLD must be entered in transaction SLDAPICUST. (This connection helps entering monitored systems in SLD.) Additionally you require a JCo RFC Connection which points from the NWA system to the RFC connection SAPSLDAPI of CEN. Create this connection in the Visual Administrator of the NWA system under Server -> Services -> JCo RFC Provider.

- SLD gateway information has to be entered in transaction RZ70 of the Central Monitoring System. (With this transaction the data transport from CEN to SLD is managed.)

- For each administered system you can store the login data with help of the Destination Service of the NWA system. (If you don't do this you get login popups in NWA for all administered systems). You can enter the login data in Visual Administrator -> Server -> Services -> Destinations as described in the documentation.

All the steps are described in detail in the Monitoring Setup Guide.

Good luck

Bye,

Hi,

following the steps you described I got an error registering the rfc destination in Visual Admin:

Error adding bundle, see LOG for details!

And the log:

Failed to initialize connection whit JCO! Bundle

Bundle cannot be added.

Thanks a lot
