Chapter 2 Con guring the ArchiveLink Interface for Archive Services for SAP Overview You can store and retrieve documents, reports, and data through SAP ArchiveLink and DMS interfaces. Prior to running the Archive Services, the SAP R/3 system must also be configured. This chapter describes how to configure your R/3 ArchiveLink and other related transactions through SAPGUI and the R/3 system. Note: The configuration steps often reference direct transaction codes. These codes allow you to navigate directly to the correct configuration screen. Most of the system configuration is performed in the SAP Implementation Guide for R/3 customizing (IMG). You can navigate to this screen using the following transaction code: spro. When configuring Archive Services, you can configure either an HTTP-based Archive Server or an RFC (Remote Function Call) Archive Server. Note: Documentum recommends that all new installations are based on the HTTP-based Archive Server. The primary reason is that SAP will focus future development at the HTTP-based archive protocol. The configuration steps are different for RFC and HTTP based archiving. Configuration steps have been marked as being relevant only to RFC- or HTTP-based archiving. The various configuration tasks that you have to perform are described in the following sections: oac0 Defining a logical ArchiveID, page 18 oag1 Configuring basic settings, page 18 oanr Configuring number ranges, page 19 oaqi - Creating queues, page 19 oaat - Scheduling jobs, page 20 spad Configuring optical archives as output devices, page 20 sm50 Verifying spool processes, page 21 oaa3 Configuring the SAP inline Print List viewer protocol, page 22 Con guring SAP R/3 for Archive Services for SAP 17

Con guring the ArchiveLink Interface for Archive Services for SAP oac0 De ning a logical ArchiveID Note: The name of the logical ArchiveID must be the same as the ArchiveID created using WebAdmin (refer to the Configuring, Viewing, and Editing Archives section of the Archive Services for SAP Administration Guide). To de ne a logical ArchiveID in SAP: 1. Execute the following transaction in the transaction code field: oac0. 2. In the Display Content Repositories: Overview page, click on any content repository (specifically whose Storage type is HTTP content server. 3. In the Display Content Repositories: Detail page, click the Display/Change icon The Copy as... button is now enabled. 4. Click the Copy as... button. 5. Edit the Content Rep. field so that it s the same as ArchiveID created using WebAdmin (refer to the Configuring, Viewing, and Editing Archives section of the Archive Services for SAP Administration Guide). 6. In the Transfer drctry field, enter the directory path where SAP can write the Print List till it is in the Storage Queue. 7. In the HTTP Server field, type your system name. Note: You are recommended to type the IP address of your system in this field. 8. In the HTTP Script field, type the following: /archivelink/archivelink/<name-of-repository> 9. To save the logical ArchiveID configuration, choose Content Repository Save. oag1 Con guring basic settings You must define the basic settings for ArchiveLink. To con gure the basic settings: 1. Execute the following transaction in in the transaction code field: oag1. 2. Ensure that the Deactivate Print List Management in DMS box is checked. 3.

Execute the following transaction in the transaction code field: oanr. 2. To edit the configuration, click on the Intervals button (marked with a pencil). The Display Number Range Intervals window opens. 3. Configure the Number Range 01 with default values. 4. Save your changes. oaqi - Creating queues When Print Lists are archived, the SAP print spooler puts the document into the asynchronous queue. The scheduler then picks up the document and sends it to the archive. The queue serves as a buffer for everything sent to an SAP archive. Other queues are used for outgoing documents and barcodes. These queues can be seen on the ArchiveLink Monitor screen (transaction code: oam1). If this screen shows the word MISSING instead of zeros, you must create queues and specify an administrator. Define an SAP user with the proper ArchiveLink administrator profile as the administrator for this queues. Defining an administrator will automatically create the queues. Check that the queues have been created by reviewing transaction oam1. To create queues: 1. Execute the following transaction in the transaction code field: oaqi The SAP ArchiveLink: Create All Queues (CFBC, CARA, CGDA) screen appears. 2. Fill in all the options with x. 3.

Click Exit. spad Con guring optical archives as output devices An output device is the driver software for the logical output device which archives documents using the ArchiveLink interface. To correctly archive a document to SAP, you must define the output device as an optical archive. Configuring an output device includes defining the type, the device, the spool server, and so on. There should be only ONE ARCH device; therefore, prior to defining a device with the ARCH short name, you should delete any existing ARCH devices such as ARCHIXOS. To con gure an optical archive as the output device: 1. Start SAPGUI and connect to your R/3 server. 20 Con guring SAP R/3 for Archive Services for SAP

Chapter 3 Customizing SAP Document Classes Overview The following sections describe how to archive document classes from SAP. The customization of each SAP setup is different depending on which document class the archived document belongs to. The document classes are: ALF FAX OTF REO For all classes, you must configure, at least: oac0 oac2 oac3 plus any specific customizations. These customizations are described in the following sections: oac0 Configuring content repositories, page 25 oac2 - Defining document types, page 30 oac3 - Defining links, page 30 oac0 Con guring content repositories SAP allows you to define a content repository (previously known as a logical archive). This content repository is mapped to a Documentum archive via WebAdmin. The Documentum archive links to a set of rules such as content folders, Documentum document types, and so on in the Documentum repository. It is recommended that you store each document type in a separate archive. Using WebAdmin, you must create a matching archive for each ArchiveID defined in SAP. This ArchiveID defines what actions (types, folders, retention, and so on) are applied on a SAP document when it is archived. The following sections explain how to create an archive in SAP for each represented document class. Con guring SAP R/3 for Archive Services for SAP 25

Customizing SAP Document Classes When configuring Archives, you can configure either an HTTP-based Archives or RFC (Remote Function Call) Archives. The configuration steps are different for RFC vs. HTTP based archives. The configuration steps below have been listed as being relevant only to RFC- or HTTP-based archiving. Note: Documentum recommends that all new installations are based on the HTTP-based Archive Server. The primary reason is that SAP will focus future development at the HTTP-based archive protocol. However legacy RFC archives are still supported. To de ne an SAP content repository: 1. Execute the following transaction in the transaction code field: oac0 2. Click the pencil button to edit the table. 3. Click New Entries. 4. Select Full administration. The Change Content Repositories window opens. 5. Fill in the following information on the Change Content Repositories window: Table 3-1. Field descriptions of Change Content Repositories screen Field name Content rep Description Storage Type Protocol Version No. Output Device Value Specify a two-letter archive name. For example, AA A meaningful name. For example, SAP Print Lists (AA) Select HTTP or RFC The previously configured protocol. 0045 for HTTP or 0031 for RFC ARCHIVE 6. Depending on whether you selected HTTP or RFC based archiving, type appropriate values in the following fields: For HTTP based archiving: HTTP server Type the hostname or IP address of the Archive Services host. If you use a server name here, ensure that you can ping the server by name from the SAP server. Port Number Type the port number being used (default is 80). 26 Con guring SAP R/3 for Archive Services for SAP

Customizing SAP Document Classes When using a default Tomcat configuration, this value is usually 8080. HTTP Script Type the following value in this field: <virtual-directory>/archivelink/ <repository> <repository> is the name of the repository that you will be archiving content into. You must configure a corresponding archive in the Archive Services, using WebAdmin. Basic path Type the file system path to the location where SAP will put archived documents to be picked up by Archive Services. Arch path Usually, the same as the Basic path. For RFC based archiving: RFC destination Type the RFC destination that you created previously (refer to sm59 RFC destination archives, page 27). Basic path Type the file system path to the location where SAP will put archived documents to be picked up by Archive Services. Arch path Usually, the same as the Basic path. Repeat this procedure to define the additional archives. You may use this procedure to define any Documentum archives in SAP. sm59 RFC destination archives This section applies to RFC archiving only. The SAP server considers Content Services for SAP an external RFC service or RFC destination. The destination is identified with a symbolic name that was configured in Documentum during the Content Services Archive Service installation. The name of the RFC destination must be unique for each repository/sap client connection and identical in the Content Services Archive Services and WebAdmin configurations. To con gure the RFC destination: 1. Start SAPGUI and connect to your R/3 server. Con guring SAP R/3 for Archive Services for SAP 27

Customizing SAP Document Classes 2. Execute the folliwng transaction: sm59. 3. Select the folder icon labeled TCP/IP connections. 4. Click Create. 5. Type in a name for the RFC destination. Use the naming conventions that uniquely identify Documentum Content Services Archive connections, such as <DCTMHOSTNAME>_<SAPSYSID_CLIENT>. You must use the same destination name configured in the WebAdmin. Note: It is important that an exact match is made for the RFC connection to communicate. The ID is case sensitive and should not contain any spaces. 6. Type T in the Connection Type field. This specifies a TCP/IP connection. 7. Leave the Login parameters field blank. 8. Enter a description in the Description field. 9. Press [Enter]. 10. Click Registration. START is not correct here and will invalidate the program ID entry. 11. Copy the RFC destination name into the Program ID field. Documentum recommends that you copy and paste the name between WebAdmin and transaction code sm59 because the value of this field must correspond to the configuration parameter RFC Program ID in the WebAdmin ArchiveLink configuration tab RFC Destination parameter RFC Program ID. If you have not yet installed Content Services, you will need to make a note of this value so that you can configure your RFC destination in Content Services WebAdmin, and when the RFC services are installed on the Content Services host server. This value must be unique for each repository/sap client connection which is why the RFC destination name <DCTMHOSTNAME>_<SAPSYSID_CLIENT> is recommended. If two Content Services archive processes register under the same ID or name the second one connected receives all requests from SAP. The first process will not receive an error message so it will wait indefinitely for RFC requests that never come. 12. Save your changes. 13. Click Back to exit. You return to the RFC Destination window. 14. Verify that the parameters have not changed. This is a check to make sure the save operation succeeded. 15. Run the test described in sm59 - Testing connections, page 29. 28 Con guring SAP R/3 for Archive Services for SAP

Customizing SAP Document Classes sm59 - Testing connections You must have created SM59 RFC destination, WebAdmin RFC config, and Content Services RFC services via the Content Services installation program and started with the SHARE user ID (refer to Installing Content Services for SAP) before you begin this procedure. To test the ArchiveLink RFC connection to Content Services archive: 1. Switch on debugging before processes or services are started the first time by setting the debug level: Windows NT In the registry: Set HKEY_LOCAL_ MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Documentum\Doclink\ Archive\Docbase\<Name_Of_Repository> to 3. UNIX In the dmal.ini file: Set the debug level to 3. 2. Start your Content Services services or processes. 3. Start SAPGUI and connect to your R/3 system. 4. Execute the following transaction: sm59. A new window opens, listing the folder hierarchy. 5. Click on the plus symbol in front of the folder labeled TCP/IP Connections. A list of all RFC Destinations opens. 6. Double-click on the RFC destination that links SAP to the repository via Content Services. 7. Click on Test Connection. A message appears on the status bar, stating that the connection is OK. A new window opens, displaying some performance figures (similar to ping). 8. Verify the connection by checking the Content Services log files. The following entries should appear in the log file on the Content Services server which may be located in C:\temp\dmalaxxxxxx.log: : >>> SAP open >>> Running RfcEnvironment >>> Running RfcInstallFunction >>> SAP event handler ok, entering event loop... >>> Calling RfcDispatch... >>> RfcDispatch returned 0 >>> Calling RfcDispatch... >>> RfcDispatch returned 0 >>> Calling RfcDispatch... >>> RfcDispatch returned 0 >>> Calling RfcDispatch... : Con guring SAP R/3 for Archive Services for SAP 29

Customizing SAP Document Classes Note: If you receive errors, check back through the configuration on SAP, WebAdmin, and the services or processes to verify there are no typos. You can turn on the RFC trace via the checkbox on SM59, and look for information in your logs. You may need to check the SAP gateway in your.../etc/services file. oac2 - De ning document types You must select which document types you will be archiving, and correlate those to SAP document classes, such as FAX, ALF, OTF, and REO, The list of document types provided by SAP, when using transaction OAC2, are the templates to be used for categorizing your SAP documents for archiving. You can customize the standard document types by using the SAP XYZ naming conventions. FAX documents are documents that will be scanned and linked to SAP. ALF are reports produced and linked from SAP. OTF are outgoing SAPSCRIPT documents produced and linked from SAP. REO documents are data archive files which are compressed by the SAP ADK and stored externally in that format. To de ne document types for SAP: 1. Execute the following transaction in the transaction code field: oac2. 2. If you are defining a new document type, select New Entries. You may also copy existing document types. 3. If you are modifying an existing document type, use Change and Details. 4. Enter information in the Description and Doc. class fields as appropriate for your configuration. 5. When you have finished selecting document types, save your changes. oac3 - De ning links Using the link table, you can categorize SAP documents to define what combination of SAP object type (for example, SOOD) and SAP document type (for example, GENPRILIS) are stored and linked to which archive. The SAP document type is linked to the SAP document class, previously known as SAP document type (for example, ALF, OTF, REO) which determines how the document is produced and linked. For example, the ALF class refers to reports, FAX to scanned documents, and OTF to outgoing SAPSCRIPT documents. 30 Con guring SAP R/3 for Archive Services for SAP

Click Continue in the Spool Request Attributes dialog box. 13. Click Continue in the Print Screen List dialog box. 14. To verify that the Print List is in the archiving queue, execute the following transaction in the transaction code field: oam1. The ArchiveLink Monitor screen appears. The Print List is now queued, waiting for the scheduler to pick it up and transfer it to the archive. oaat - Scheduling jobs, page 20, contains information about configuring the ArchiveLink scheduler. 15. To accelerate the transfer of the Print List from the queue to the archive in the repository, click Storage Queue. The Queue: Content server (CARA) screen appears. You should now see an entry for the newly-archived Print List in this screen. 16. To view the archiving parameter details, double-click the Print List entry. The Archiving request window opens. Verify that the details are correct 17. To archive the Print List in an archive located in a repository, click Execute. You should see a confirmation message that the queue has been processed.

Testing the Archiving Process Using a Print List 2. To find a particular Print List, type appropriate search parameters in the appropriate fields. The ArchiveLink: Hit List for Stored Print Lists page appears. 3. Double-click an item in the list to select it. 4. Choose Print List>Display From Content Server. SAP executes the GET command to retrieve the document from the Documentum archive. The retrieved document is displayed in SAPGUI and has the DocumentID of the Print List in Documentum. Deleting archived and linked documents In a repository, if you delete version 1.0 of a document that is linked to SAP or archived from SAP, the link to SAP is also deleted. This is because the dm_relation object which creates the link to SAP is deleted when the parent object (which is always version 1.0) is deleted. We recommend that you do not delete the original version of objects that are linked to SAP if you want to maintain their link to SAP. If you need to delete version 1.0 of a document, but want to keep the link to SAP, then, after deleting the document, you must relink the object to SAP, outside of Archive Services. 36 Con guring SAP R/3 for Archive Services for SAP
