How many RFC Destinations / RFC Sender Channels

[Former Member]

Hello everybody!

I have several RFC --> XI --> JDBC/FILE/SOAP integration scenarios. For each scenario I have one RFC Destination created (pointing to XI) in SM59 in R/3. For each RFC Destination I have created one RFC Sender Channel in XI.

But this doesn't make sense, don't you agree? I should have only one RFC Destination in R/3 to XI, right?

If that is the case:

1) Should I also have only on RFC Sender Channel in XI?

2) What about load balance? What about concurrence? With only one RFC Sender Channel I have to set "Initial Connection" propertie to a big value to be able to handle several RFC calls (to different RFC Functions) in parallel. Is there a limit (a maximum value) I can use in "Initial Connection" propertie?

Thanks

Julio

hi julio,

<b>Yes</b>. We can have only one RFC to point to Same XI System and in the XI, we need <b> only one</b> RFC Sender too.

Hi Julio,

Acc. to me..

<i>But this doesn't make sense, don't you agree? I should have only one RFC Destination in R/3 (pointing to XI), right?</i>

Yes... we should have one RFC destination. As each and every time pointing to same XI system...

<i>1) Should I also have only on RFC Sender Channel in XI?</i>

We can use the same RFC sender channel. but it depends upon scenario.
