how to integrate R/3 and XI if they are installed on same server (same IP),

[Former Member]

Hi,

We are planning to instal R/3 and XI on same server as different instances.

If we do this, how to integrate both these systesms. Normally we create port and RFCs in both R/3 and XI , so that these two systems identify each other during message flow.

We have to give IP address during RFC creation. If both these instances are installed on the same server and IP address also same, how do we maintan different RFC in XI and R/3.

Technical system creation in SLD should not be a problem as long as we have two different system IDs, even though its same IP address.

Please clarify.

you follow the normal way of configuring the RFC and IDOC for this....even tought you install the R/3 on the same Sever the SID, Host name will be different....try to make the diferent instance number.....let us know if you need more specific info..

thanks a lot NIsar.

So, we should have two different instances for XI and R/3 (even if we are installing on same server) and have different system ids and system numbers.

Will try to install and share our experiences with you.
