SRM to MDM scenario

[Former Member]

Hello Guru's,

I need to verify somethings because I am getting a bit lost.

I need to have a scenario from SRM to MDM with XI. Only there is a problem because the MDM server is Linux. Linux only supports secure FTP and XI only supports FTP(s). So the solution was to implement a J2SE adapter plain engine, because its very basic to install. This is done and now comes the point where I am getting lost:

For the part for XI to MDM I have created a receiver XI adapter in XI:

- tranport protocol HTTP 1.0

- message protocol 3.0

- Adapter engine: Integration Server

- Addressing Type: URL Address

-Target host: http://aaa.bbb.bbb

- Service number 62001

- Path prefix: /file/Receive

- Authentication type: Use logon data for Non-SAP system, with username and password

On the MDM server for the J2SE adapter plain engine, I have configured a file_receive adapter:

1. File adapter java class

classname=com.sap.aii.messaging.adapter.ModuleXMB2File

version=30

mode=XMB2FILE

##Adress for XMB endpoint

XI.httpPort=62001

XI.httpService=/file/Receiver

##File Adapter specific parameters

file.createDir=1

file.targetDir=/usr/sap/CA1/trans/data/

file.targetFilename=xmb_output.xml

#file.writeMode=append

#file.writeMode=overwrite

file.writeMode=addCounter

file.counterMode=immediately

#file.counterMode=afterFirst

file.counterSeparator=_

file.counterFormat=00000

file.counterStep=1

The question is, do I need to have a SOAP receiver adapter in XI and a FTP receiver on the J2SE side, like a described above?

Best regards,

Hi,

According to me for XI you require J2SE engine, because it used core java.

For Adapters which developed in EJB's then only you require J2EE engine only to run EJB Component.

Hi

I think you can do it by local adapter engine (J2EE) which is installed on MDM machine.

While configuring communication channel select adapter engine as local adapter engine.There you can mention directory and file name of local adapter engine.

thinking useful hint.

Thanks

I know linux products such as jscape support ftps

Hi,

Thnx for the reply, we also need the secure FTP of Linux for other purposes. So I can and need to use the J2SE adapter plain engine.

Hi,

One way I would look at solving this problem would be -

If there is a common file server in the landscape which both XI and MDM system could reach. If that is the case, I would not write an J2SE adapter but would simply place the files from XI using a file adapter or FTP adapter. From there MDM can poll them (if possible).

I am not sure if it helps. But just a thought.
