Create an SAP Adapter in WebSphere Integration Bus

Before you can develop message flows that use WebSphere SAP Adapter nodes, you must add prerequisite files to the runtime environment.

Ensure that you have the following files .
sapidoc3.jar
sapjco3.jar
sapjco3.dll

Save these files in a library e.g. C:/SAP_LIB

These files are available from the SAP Service Marketplace - . You must have an SAPNet account to be able to access this web site.


On IIB Command Console, set the location of the SAP prerequisite files using the following commands

mqsichangeproperties IB9NODE -c EISProviders -o SAP  -n jarsURL -v C:\SAP_LIB
mqsichangeproperties IB9NODE  -c EISProviders -o SAP  -n nativeLibs -v C:\SAP_LIB

To check that the values have been set correctly, run the following command:

mqsireportproperties  IB9NODE -c EISProviders -o SAP -r

You should get the following result.

ReportableEntityName=' '
EISProviders
SAP=' '
jarsURL='C:\SAP_LIB'
nativeLibs='C:\SAP_LIB'

Restart the broker for the changes to take effect.
