Set Up the SAP R3 Connector

The SAP R3 connector requires SAP Java Connector (SAP JCo). Before you use the SAP R3 connector, create a bundle that contains the JCo files, and then add the bundle to the connector.

Follow these steps:

1. Install or upgrade CA IAM CS.

   The installation registers CA IAM CS with the provisioning server, creates the Salesforce.com endpoint, and populates it with its associated metadata.

2. Ask the SAP administrator to follow these steps:
   1. Log in to http://service.sap.com/connectors using SAP Service Marketplace credentials.
   2. Click SAP Java Connector to display the JCo overview, then click Tools and Services from the menu on the left.
   3. Select Download SAP JCo Release 2.1 from the menu, then select the appropriate 64-bit download from the list.
   4. Extract the following files:
      • Windows: librfc32.dll, sapjco.jar, sapjcorfc.dll
      • UNIX: sapjco.jar, librfccm.so, libsapjcorfc.so
   5. Send the files to you.
3. Save these files locally.
4. Run the sap_post_install script in the following location:

   cs-home/bin

   The script asks for the location of the JCo files. It then creates a bundle and saves it in the same location as the script.

5. Log in to CA IAM CS.
6. At the top, click the Connector Servers tab.
7. In the Connector Server Management area, click the Bundles tab.
8. Add the new bundle:
   1. In the Bundles area on the right, click Add.
   2. Browse to the bundle that the script created, then select the connector server on which this connector will be available.
   3. Click OK.

      The new bundle appears in the Bundles list.

9. Find the main connector bundle in the Bundles list, then right-click its name in the list and choose Refresh Imports from the popup menu.

You can now use the SAP R3 connector to connect to an endpoint.

Load the Bundle for SAP r3 Prerequisites

CA IAM CS comes with a script that helps you load the bundle.

Follow these steps:

1. Log in to CA IAM CS.
2. Click Connector Server, Bundles, and then click Add.
3. Browse to the following file:

   cs-home/jcs/resources/sap/sapConnectorLibsOsgi.jar
   

   Note: Do not check the Start Bundle box.

4. Click OK.

   CA IAM CS loads the bundle and lists it as a fragment.

5. Right-click the SAP R3 connector bundle (not the fragment!) and select Refresh Imports.

   The connector detects the new bundle, and includes it.

You can now use the SAP R3 connector to connect to an endpoint.
