Managed connection factory properties

Managed connection factory properties are used by the adapter at run time to create an outbound connection instance with the SAP server.

The following property that was specified as a Managed connection factory property in version 6.2.x applies to the interaction specification property group in version 7.5.0.2.

IgnoreBAPIReturn

You set the managed connection factory properties using the external service wizard and can change them using the IBM Integration Designer Assembly Editor, or after deployment through the IBM BPM or WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus Process Administrative Console.
The following table lists and describes the managed connection factory properties. A more detailed description of each property is provided in the sections that follow the table. For information on how to read the property detail tables in the sections that follow, see Guide to information about properties.
The external service wizard refers to these properties as managed connection factory properties and IBM BPM or WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus Process Administrative Console refers to these as (J2C) connection factory properties.

Adapter ID (AdapterID)

This property identifies a specific deployment or instance of the adapter.

Adapter ID details
Required Yes
Default 001
Property type String
Usage This property identifies the adapter instance in the log and trace files, and also helps identify the adapter instance while monitoring adapters. The adapter ID is used with an adapter-specific identifier, SAPRA, to form the component name used by the Log and Trace Analyzer tool.
For example, if the adapter ID property is set to 001, the component ID is SAPRA001.
If you run multiple instances of the same adapter, ensure that the first eight characters of the adapter ID property are unique for each instance so that you can correlate the log and trace information to a particular adapter instance. By making the first seven characters of an adapter ID property unique, the component ID for multiple instances of that adapter is also unique, allowing you to correlate the log and trace information to a particular instance of an adapter.

For example, when you set the adapter ID property of two instances of WebSphere Adapter for SAP Software to 001 and 002. The component IDs for those instances, SAPRA001 and SAPRA002, are short enough to remain unique, enabling you to distinguish them as separate adapter instances. However, instances with longer adapter ID properties cannot be distinguished from each other. If you set the adapter ID properties of two instances to Instance01 and Instance02, you will not be able to examine the log and trace information for each adapter instance because the component ID for both instances is truncated to SAPRAInstance.
For inbound processing, the value of this property is set at the resource adapter level. For outbound processing, the value can be set both at the resource adapter level and the managed connection factory level. After you use the external service wizard to configure the adapter for outbound processing, you can set the resource adapter and managed connection factory properties independently. If you use the IBM Integration Designer assembly editor or the administrative console to reset these properties, ensure that you set them consistently, to prevent inconsistent marking of the log and trace entries.
Globalized Yes
Bidi supported No

Client

This property is the client number of the SAP system to which the adapter connects.

Client details
Required Yes
Possible values You can enter a range of values from 000 to 999.
Default 100
Property type Integer
Usage
When an application attempts to log on to the SAP server, the SAP server requires that the application have a Client number associated with it. The Client property value identifies the client (the adapter) that is attempting to log onto the SAP server.
Globalized No
Bidi supported No

Codepage number

The numeric identifier of the code page.

Codepage number details
Required No
Possible values You can enter a range of values from 0000 to 9999.
For a full listing of languages and associated codepage numbers supported by SAP, access SAP If 7360.
Default The default value for this property is conditionally determined by the value set for the Language code property.
Property type Integer
Usage
The value assigned to the Codepage number defines the code page to be used and has a one-to-one relationship with the value set for the Language code property. The Codepage number establishes a connection to the appropriate language.
Each language code value has a codepage number value associated with it.
For example, the language code for English, is EN. If you selected EN (English) as your language code, the codepage number is automatically set to the numeric value associated with EN (English). The SAP code page number for EN (English) is 1100.
Example
If Language code is set to JA (Japanese), Codepage number is set to 8000.
Globalized No
Bidi supported No

Disguise user data as "XXX" in log and trace files (HideConfidentialTrace)

This property specifies whether to replace user data in log and trace files with a string of X's to prevent unauthorized disclosure of potentially sensitive data.

Required No
Possible values
True
False
Default False
Property type Boolean
Usage If you set this property to True, the adapter replaces user data with a string of X's when writing to log and trace files.
For inbound processing, the value of this property is set at the resource adapter level. For outbound processing, the value can be set both at the resource adapter level and the managed connection factory level. After you use the external service wizard to configure the adapter for outbound processing, you can set the resource adapter and managed connection factory properties independently. If you use the IBM Integration Designer assembly editor or the administrative console to reset these properties, ensure that you set them consistently, to prevent inconsistent marking of the log and trace entries.

Maximum Number of retries in case of system connection failure

This property specifies the number of times the adapter attempts to create a connection to the Enterprise Information System (EIS). The adapter will try connecting to the EIS for the specified number of times. Select only if you want to reduce the number of connection exceptions in the outbound operation.
If selected, the adapter will validate the connection for each outbound request.

Reset Client details
Required No
Possible values Integers
Default 0
Property type Integer
Usage

When the adapter encounters an error related to the outbound connection, it retries to establish a physical connection (when physical connection is not established) for the number of times specified for this property with a time delay specified in the property Time between retries in case of system connection failure (milliseconds).
If the value is 0, the adapter does not perform any EIS connection validation and executes the outbound operation.
if the value is > 0, then during each request the adapter validates if the EIS connection is active.

If the connection is valid the operation is completed.
if connection is invalid, the adapter invalidates the current managed connection and a new managed connection is created (new physical connection)
