Use the Add/Edit Listener screen to add a new listener or edit the values of existing listeners.
Program ID
The Program ID that you specified when creating the corresponding RFC destination
on the SAP server. This field is case-sensitive.
Number of Threads
The number of simultaneous incoming RFCs that can be handled by this listener.
Gateway Host
Gateway Host for accessing your SAP server. This must be exact the same
parameter as you chose for the corresponding RFC destination in the SAP
system.
Gateway Service
The Gateway Service. This corresponds to your SAP system number. If your
SAP system number is "01" then your gateway service is "sapgw01."
Autostart
Specifies whether this listener will start automatically when the SAP Business
Connector Server starts.
Select Yes to have
SAP Business Connector automatically start the listener when the Server
is started.
Select No to manually
start the listener after the SAP Business Connector Server is started.
To manually start the listener, from the SAP
Servers tab, choose the
number in the Listeners
column for the appropriate SAP server. Then, click the red icon in the
Started?
field. The icon becomes green
when the listener is started.
RFC Trace
Enables or disables RFC tracing.
For a productive system, select OFF.
When you select ON,
SAP Business Connector Server collects tracing in .trc files in
directory <installation path>\sapbc\server\. The names of
the .trc files all begin with rfc.
Repository Server
The SAP server alias is used as a repository for function interfaces and
structure definitions of inbound calls. This way it is possible to use
RFCs even if they are not defined in the calling system.
