Hi Venkataramesh,

Adapters are mainly in the Adapter Engine..

but apart from it we can also create our own Adapters in Integration Design(ID).

Hi Venkataramesh B

there are two stacks in application server

1)Java stack 2)ABAP stack

IDOC and HTTP adapter resides in ABAP stack

rest all adapters reside in JAVA stack....

Adapters enable communication between the XI integration engine and an application system. This leads to the communication between heterogeneous systems

systems using WAS version lower then 6.20 needs of external adapter while thos using higher version do not require of external adapter because each stack has its own adapter inbuild

You can configure adapter (communication channel) in integration directory

for more details you can refer to TBIT 42 link is as below

Hi Venkat,

......>>Where Adapters are there..?

actually adapters come into picture when ever u want to transport after designing and configuring so ..IR(design part),ID(configuration part) and in Integration server the adapter comes .......so there are various adapters which u can chosse depending upon the type of interface u are developing.......more details u can get in TBIT'S were everything is given about adapters ..................be through with the adapter configuration it will be very help full in future as a XI developer .

Hi Venkataramesh B ,

The XI Adapter engine is the home of the majority of the XI adapters. Only the IDoc adapter and the plain HTTP adapter do not reside on the adapter engine. They reside on the Integration Server.

It is fully integrated in to the XI landscape with tools provided for configuration, logistics and monitoring. It's Adapter Framework is based on the JCA.

Adapter Overview

What are XI Adapters?

Adapters enable communication between the XI integration engine and an application system. This leads to the compatibility between heterogeneous systems

Adapters convert the XI protocol (SOAP with attachments over HTTP) to the protocol spoken by the application system and vice-versa

The key purpose of XI is to integrate heterogeneous systems and adapters are the key enabler to achieving this goal

Adapter Categories

Application adapters provided by SAP (IDoc and RFC) and 3rd party vendors (Seeburger, Siebel, Oracle, ...)

Technical adapters relate to specific protocols

File systems (FTP / File)

RDBMS systems (JDBC)

Messaging systems (JMS)

Web services (SOAP)

Mail servers (SMTP)

SAP Business Connector

Marketplaces

Industry standard adapters

RosettaNet

CIDX

HI Venkat,

If u run transaction called "SXMB_IFR", You come to Java Stake of XI .

And on that page ypu have option of "Intergration Monitring-----Runtime Workbench" , if you click on this you and on the page if u click on "Display" Under "Intergration Engine" you have a option called "Adapter Engine" click on that then you will be able to find all the Adapters.

IF helpful reward with points

Dear Venkat,

first run transaction SXMB_IFR

it will show you the IR,ID.SLD,and RWB,

1>just go to ID(configuration)

There is the list of adapters you can see with the nomencleture.

there in communication channel you find the adapter type cofigured.

2> Also go the RWB>Component monitoring(choose adapter engine)

you will find adapter engine>communication channel click on that where you can see the list of communicaton channel with their type.

3> Also there is no central adapter engine in Component monitoring. in which do the same go to communication channel you will find all Decentral adapter engine.

i think it will help you..

Hi venkat,

The Adapter Engine is a separate software component that is automatically installed on the Integration Server. In this case, it is the central Adapter Engine. However, you can also install the Adapter Engine separately on another host. This is then a non-central Adapter Engine.

You use the Adapter Engine to connect the Integration Engine to SAP systems (RFC adapter) and external systems. You use the various adapters in the Adapter Engine to convert XML- and HTTP-based messages to the specific protocol and format required by these systems, and the other way around.

A runtime component for resource adapters for integrating applications and systems.

You can deploy the Adapter Engine centrally as part of the Integration Server (standard), or decentrally on any AS Java. In both cases, adapters that run within the Adapter Engine can be monitored and configured centrally.

The Adapter Engine contains the Adapter Framework, which includes functions for messaging, queuing, security, and connectivity to the Integration Server. You can use this framework to connect your own resource adapters or those of partners

hi,

Adapters resides in <b>Adapter engine in Intrgration Server</b>.

if you are asking abt configuration of Adapters<b> go to ID them Communication Channel there you can find the list of Adapters .</b>

If you want to see in Monitoring so in<b> RWB go to Component Monitoring then go to Adapter Monitoring.</b>

hope this will help

Venkat,

<b>u want to know where the ADAPTERS resides in XI.?????</b>

see XI Web AS has 2 stacks..

1)JAVA Stack

2)ABAP Stack

IDOC and HTTP adapter resides in ABAP stack

rest all adapters reside in JAVA stack....

<b>And if u want to know where u can configure a adpater...</b>

In ID, in communication channel.. u can find the ADPATER list...

Hope u r clear!!

In the adapter engine.

Else if you are looking at "where", then in ID -> you can create a new adapter (communication channel)
