Configuring an HTTP Destination for SAP NetWeaver Application Server Java
To communicate with Application Server Java (AS Java) and collect data, you must configure a valid HTTP destination for monitoring.
Proceed as follows to set up a valid configuration:
-
Start transaction SM59.
-
Click Create to create a new RFC destination.
-
In the RFC destination field, enter an RFC destination.
-
In the Connection Type field, enter the value G (HTTP Connection to External Server).
-
In the Description field, enter a suitable description.
-
Go to the Technical Settings tab.
-
In the Target Host field, enter a valid target host.
-
In the Service No. field, enter a valid service number (port).
-
Go to the Login & Security tab.
-
Select the Basic Authentication option.
-
In the Logon area, fill out all the fields.
NOTE The user defined in the Logon area must be a user that exists on the SAP NetWeaver AS Java system. In addition, this user must have at least the following two authorization roles assigned to them:
Administrator
SAP_XI_MONITOR_J2EE
If the user is missing these roles, the monitoring of PI messages and channels will not work as expected.
-
The setup is complete.
Connection Test
Once you have configured all the required fields as detailed in the steps above, click Connection Test.
After the test execution, in the Test Result tab, you must receive an HTTP response status with the value 200. Otherwise, the configuration was not successful.
