Configuring the SAP Adapter

Licensing an Adapter

A criteria hierarchy is stored in a criteria profile which can be active and inactive. For the criteria in a profile to take effect, 
the profile has to be active. You can have many profiles, but only one can be active.

If you want to use an existing Event/Interception Profile, both the 

 and the 

 options must be selected. 

In SAP, the System profile is presented as follows: 

<Master ID>- <Unique ID>-<Event Profile Name>

Include the following condition:

<Master ID>-<Unique ID>_<Internal ID>_<Event Definition Name>

Exclude the following condition:

<Master ID>-<Unique ID>X<Internal ID>_<Event Definition Name>

SAP Agent Lists

Once multiple connections to SAP instances are created you can create agent lists specific to SAP. With agent lists an 
SAP job is not limited to a specific instance and can use alternate SAP instances if the primary instance is unavailable. 

The 

option of the 

 pane displays an SAP type of agent list. The procedure to create SAP agent 

lists is the same as creating any other agent list. Refer to the Cisco Workload Automation User Guide for more information 
on creating an agent list.

SAP Connection Status Light

If the CWA master cannot connect or loses its connection to an SAP instance, you will see a red status light next to your 
SAP connection in the 

 pane. Connection to SAP must be established by the Master in order to define SAP 

jobs and extract information on job steps from your SAP instance.

To test your connection to the SAP instance from the CWA Web client, select the SAP connection and right-click and 
select the 

 option. The resulting dialog will tell you if you have an active connection. For more information on the 

 dialog, see 

.

Configuring Default System Settings for SAP

Configure the SAP job output default or even turn it off from the 

 tab of the 

 dialog.

From the 

 main menu, select 

to display the 

 dialog. 

The 

 dialog sets universal parameters for CWA though you can still override a parameter for 

individual jobs. 

Click the 

 tab.

In the 

 section, if you wish to see job output, select either 

 or 

. The default 

is to discard output.

Since SAP job output can be quite extensive, the 

 option is selected by default. This 

provides job log information only. Unchecking this option will provide the full spooled output (if available). You can 
override this setting for individual jobs on the 

 tab of the 

 dialog if desired.
