Use

In this IMG activity you set up RFC connections between the SAP system and the computer system on which Text Retrieval & Information Extraction (previously Index Management Service) is installed.

Please also refer to the notes in the installation guide for Text Retrieval & Information Extraction.

Requirements

For the computer system for the Text Retrieval & Information Extraction
(while keeping to the system prerequisites as set out in the installation guide):

  • Installation of SAP Gateway from 4.6D (standard)
  • Installation of a search engine (Verity 1.2.2 or DrFuzzy)
  • Installation of Text Retrieval & Information Extraction

Standard settings

Activities

2 RFC connections are needed:

1. For the indexing of documents; the RFC destination IMSDEFAULT with activation type = start.

2. For the searching for documents, the RFC destination IMSDEFAULT_REG with activation type = registration.

Carry out the activity.

1. Creation and test of RFC destination for indexing

  • Choose Create.
  • In the field RFC Destination enter IMSDEFAULT .
  • Choose the connection type T.
  • Enter a description.
  • Choose Save.

In the following dialog window, you determine the settings for the RFC destination IMSD EFAULT.

  • Choose the activation type Start.
  • In the field Start On enter Explicit Host.
  • In the field Program enter ims_server_admin.exe.
  • In the field Save As enter the required option (host or IP Address).
  • In the field target computer enter the host name (possibly with domain name), or the IP address of the Windows NT computer on which the Text Retrieval & Information Extraction (Index Management Service) is installed.
  • Choose Save.

Then determine the settings for the SAP Gateway.

  • In the menu Destination choose Gateway Options.
  • In the field Gateway Host enter the host name (possibly with domain name), or the IP address of the Windows NT computer on which the SAP Gateway is installed.
  • In the field Gateway Service enter the name of the Gateway sapgwXX (xx = 2 character number of the SAP system). This value is generally sapgw47.
  • Choose OK.

You return to the previous dialog window.

  • Choose Save.
  • Choose Test Connection.

The RFC connection is created.

2. Creation and test of the RFC destination for search

  • In transaction SM59 choose Create.
  • In the field RFC Destination enter IMSDEFAULT_REG.
  • Choose the connection type T.
  • Enter a description.
  • Choose Save.

In the following dialog window you determine the settings for the RFC destination IMSD EFAULT_REG.

  • Choose the activation type registration.
  • In the area Registration in the field Program ID enter the host with the registration program rfc_sapretrieval
  • Choose Save.

Then determine the settings for the SAP Gateway.

  • In the menu Destination choose Gateway Options.
  • In the field Gateway Host enter the host name (possibly with domain name), or the IP address of the Windows NT computer on which the Gateway is installed.
  • In the field Gateway Service enter the name of the Gateway sapgwXX (xx = 2 character number of the SAP system). This should generally be sapgw47.
  • Choose OK.

You return to the previous dialog window.

  • Choose Save.
  • Choose Test Connection.

The RFC connection is created.
