Configure the environment for batch input tests

To play back SAP batch input tests, install the SAP Java Connector (JCo) libraries provided by SAP on local and remote computers running the agent controller.

Contact SAP for instructions on obtaining these libraries. The following files are required:

• sapjco.jar
• librfc32.dll
• sapjcorfc.dll

On each local and remote computer used for running batch input tests and schedules, prepare an environment with these libraries, set the class path of the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) that the Rational Agent Controller uses. To configure a computer for SAP batch input tests:

1. Copy sapjco.jar into the jre/lib/ext directory of the JRE. The exact location is specified in the serviceconfig.xml file located in the AgentController\config directory.

   By default, this is the following directory: C:\Program Files\IBM\SDP\jdk\jre\lib\ext

2. Copy sapjcorfc.dll into the C:\Windows\System32 directory

3. For SAP GUI 6.20 or 6.40 (but not for SAPGUI 7.10), in C:\Windows\System32, rename librfc32.dll to librfc32.sav.dll and copy the new librfc32.dll into the directory.

4. Click Start > Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Services, and then stop and restart the Rational Agent Controller service.

What to do next

When running a simple SAP batch input test, results should appear in the SAP Batch Input Transaction page of the SAP performance report. If not, look at the test log for connection and transaction execution information.
