Hi SAP Community

We have an old BW (7.01) and we wish connect it to a new SLD (7.41). Trying to find some SAP notes or documentation in sap.com We haven't found any documentation.

The main target is it can to calculate java components through Maintenance Planner

Regards and Thank you...!

Hi Erick,

First off, I added a secondary tag for NetWeaver Application Server Java, as your question is specifically about doing this with a Java system, yes? If I've misunderstood, please feel free to change the tags.

So, I understand you have a BI Java system on NetWeaver 7.01. I had to dredge up memory a bit here, since almost all of our Java systems are now at 7.4 or higher, where the method is different (and easier). Then I recalled we still run our SolMan system on 7.1, and that has a Java component on NW 7.02, so not too terribly different from 7.01.

To configure the SLD connection in a Java 7.0x system, you need to use remote console to the server, then run Visual Administrator. Drill down to the first Server node, then Services -> SLD Data Supplier. Switch to the HTTP Settings (Data Supplier) tab, and enter the connection information for your SLD, i.e. Host, Port, User (usually SLD_DS_<SLD_SID>), and Password. Then switch to the CIM Client Generation Settings tab and enter the same information, though here you'll probably want to use the SLD_CL_<SLD_SID> user. On this tab you can test the connection with the CIMClient Test button.

Once it's all done, there is a button at the top, looks a bit like a lightning-bolt arrow, which will trigger a send of data to the SLD. You should then be able to see right away if it's working, or within a few minutes. After that, it should happen automatically every 12 hours or so -- that is configurable on the Properties tab.

That should do it. This is independent of the version of your SLD itself. For SLD, higher is better, so having a higher-version SLD than the client connecting to it is a good thing.

I'm assuming your connection from SLD to Solution Manager, and from there to the SAP Customer Portal (and Maintenance Planner), is already working, as you didn't ask about that.

Cheers,
Matt
