Dear friend

see the following option

This note describes how to set up a functional HTTP Connect connection with a URL that links to the SAP Solution Manager start page.

You can do this as of Support Package Stack 09 using wizards. Alternatively, you can maintain it manually in the SAP Support Portal.

I) Setup using Wizards

Call transaction SOLMAN_CONNECT.

You can call this transaction from various paths in SAP Solution Manager. For example in transaction SOLUTION_MANAGER, choose Operations Setup, Solution Landscape and then Service Connections.

You must also set the SAProuter when you use wizards.

You can find more information about this in the online documentation under SAP Solution Manager - Services and Support - Service Connections.

II) Manual Setup

Maintain the HTTP Connect service connection to SAP Solution Manager as follows. For more details see also Notes 592085, 35010 and 495857.

1. Reading the URL from SAP Solution Manager

Call transaction SE80.

-> Package DSWP

-> BSP Library

-> BSP Applications

-> DSWP_BSP

-> Pages with Flow Logic

-> dsmop.html

-> Properties

In the last entry at the bottom the page, you will find the URL address required for SAP Solution Manager.

You must define this address when you set up the HTTP Connect service connection (see below).

2. Setup on your SAProuter

o Check which route permission table 'saprouttab' the SAProuter you want to use works with.

o Enter this in the corresponding table in the following form:

P < IP address SAP-SR> <IP server> <port application>

or

P < SAP IP> <YOUR-SERVER-IP> <YOUR-PORT-NUMBER>

or

KP "p:CN=sapserv2, OU=SAProuter, O=SAP, C=DE" <IPServ> <Port

or

KP "p:CN=sapserv2, OU=SAProuter, O=SAP, C=DE" <YOUR-IP> <YOUR-PORT>

o Import the changed table to the SAProuter.

o Check if the SAProuter can reach the target host (IP address or host name, if required) on the relevant port of the application. If not, adjust the network accordingly.

3. Setting up the Service, System Data Maintenance and Opening the Connection in the SAP Support Portal

o Log on to the SAP Support Portal (http://service.sap.com/support) and go to Problem Solving, then choose Connecting to SAP, or use the quick link http://service.sap.com/serviceconnection.

o Choose Maintain Connections.

o Select the required system ID.

3a) Creating the Service:

o Navigate to the section Create Connection Types.

o Select the service HTTP Connect URL Access by choosing the service name.

o Select a contact person.

o Choose Save to copy the selection.

o You can now see the activated service in the section Open/Close Connections.

3b) Creating the URL/System Data Maintenance:

o Navigate to the section URLs and expand it.

o Choose the blank sheet icon to create a URL or change an existing URL by following the link (Description field).

o Enter a full description of the URL (free text, for example 'SAP Solution Manager start page').

o Select the type of the URL (service type) 'HTTP Connect - URL Access' from the list box.

o Maintain the relevant URL, for example http://yourserver.yourdomain.com:8000/sap/bc/bsp/sap/dswp_bsp/dsmop.html.

3c) Opening the Connection:

o The list of active services is displayed in the section Open/Close Connections. If the service is not displayed here, you must first activate it (see the section 'Creating the Service' above).

o You can choose the relevant service to open the corresponding service connection. You must also select the required opening time (8 by default). You can manually maintain the contact person or select one from the list of registered contact persons.

o Choose Save to complete the opening of the connection.

For any questions about setting up the connection or about testing the connection, open a message under the component XX-SER-NET-HTL.

III) Verifying the HTTP Connect Service Connection

You can use the report RSWF_TEST_HTTP to check if an HTTP connection to a specified URL can be set up successfully. If not, this may be due to the following causes:

  • a system setting is missing (HTTP/HTTPS is usually not possible)

  • the URL is spelled incorrectly (host, port or URL path is incorrect)

  • a proxy setting is missing or incorrect

  • the target system (temporarily) cannot be reached
