PI to PI communication

[Former Member]

Hi, if we have two PI systems then is it possible to communicate with each other internally at Integration server level or do we have to configure any Adapters for this also.

HI,

The communication via web service may have advantages, if you want communicate with non XI systems.

In your scenario, there is direct communication between XI engines, so you can go for XI adapter. The XI adapter which is normally used to configure the exchange of messages with in an Integration Server, canbe extended to exchange messages between the two Integration Servers in the scenario.

Please verify if if you have the common SLD for both XI systems. its preferable to go for seperate SLDs

Check out the similar threads, XI to XI scenarios:

These links will definitely give you an idea about the current situation.

Thanks

HI,

You can use XI adapter for two PI system configuration, since XI adapter will pick the message from the receiver Queue of 1st Pi server and will put the message in 2nd PI pipleline.

SO for internal server interaction XI adapter has to be used.

hi reema,

Two PI Integration Servers are used to exchange messages between the system landscapes of two business partners.

A PI Integration Server of a business partner is connected to the PI Integration Server of another business partner. Both use XI message protocol to send or receive messages.

When a PI Integration Server receives a message from another Integration Server it understands the message format and so processes the message.

adapters used are xi adapters

A PI Integration Server can also send and receive SAP XI 2.0 messages. Therefore, it is also possible to integrate business partners who use SAP XI 2.0.

Example

A business partner that uses PI wants to send a message to another business partner who also uses PI.

● The message is sent between the Integration Servers in XI message format

● The Integration Server of the second business partner then sends the message to the relevant business system

Hi Reema,

I think you need to use some adapter. Considering both the systems are SAP XI, you can use IDoc to communicate.

XI adapter is used to connect one XI system with another XI system.

let say you have to XI systems A and B.

- A send the message to B in this case you have to create create XI communication channel in the A system of type(Recevier)

-B is receiving message from A, and in this case no need to create Sender communication channel in A system..
