Spoolhost setup for SAProuter and MSHOST

Background

When using a SAProuter in your network some additional configuration needs to be made for the Spoolhost when using a MSHOST RFC connectstring for the SAP system

Requirements

These instructions only apply for Spoolhost + SAProuter in combination with MSHOST RFC connecstring.
(ASHOST based connectstring should work out of the box from 9.2.10.0 onward)

Instructions

1. create sapnwrfc.ini in the agent install directory of your Spool Host (ie:/opt/redwood/agent) with following content
   (note: make sure to include empty lines like in below example!)

   DEFAULT
   # RFC_TRACE=3 // enable in case of running into issues
   
   DEST=S90
   SAPROUTER=/H/<saprouter host>/S/<saprouter port>
   
   DEST=S91
   SAPROUTER=/H/<saprouter host>/S/<saprouter port>
   
   ...etc...

    

2. set RFC Connect String to

   MSHOST=/H/<saprouter host>/S/<saprouter port>/H/<mshost> GROUP=<logongroup> R3NAME=<SID> MSSERV=<port> DEST=S90 rw_jrfc_ashost=<mshost> TRACE=0

3. restart SAP Process Server

Note: In case of issues you can uncomment the line RFC_TRACE=3 after which logging will be created in /opt/redwood/agent
