Configure the SLD

The System Landscape Directory (SLD) is the central information provider in a system environment. You can configure it after the installation of the SAP Solution Manager Integration. This step is optional.

Follow the steps below to configure the SLD:

  1. Go to %COMMANDER_HOME% directory and open the COMRegisterSolManAddIn.exe.config file.

  2. In section <applicationSettings> of the COMRegisterSolManAddIn.exe.config file, edit the settings listed in the table below:

Setting

Description

Example

SLDUrl

URL containing the server address of the SAP Solution Manager system which includes the SLD. You can use either HTTP or HTTPS.

This URL is provided by the system administrator.

http://192.12.13.14:50000/sld/ds

SLDUser

User ID for registering external components in the SLD. This user (connection or dialog user) must have the following roles:

  • SAP_J2EE_ADMIN

  • SAP_SLD_ORGANIZER

Complete IP address or fully qualified domain name (FQDN) of the local system.

192.12.15.19 or mycomputer.mycompany.com

  1. Uninstall older versions via the unregisterSapSolManAddin.bat file.

  2. Execute the %COMMANDER_HOME%\registerSapSolManAddin.bat file.

  3. In the registerSAPSolManAddin command line window, you have to provide the password for your SLD User ID.

    Alternatively, you can provide the password with a command line if you don't need your password to be covered with *****. To do so, run the command line manually in %COMMANDER_HOME% and enter COMRegisterSolManAddIn.exe -r -p Password. Replace Password with the password for your SLD User ID.

  4. Tricentis recommends that you log in and out of Windows to ensure that all your changes are effective.

You have to execute both the unregisterSapSolManAddin.bat and the registerSapSolManAddin.bat files with admin privileges, because standard users are not allowed to make changes to the application directory. Execute the file via the context menu entry Run as Administrator.

The code below demonstrates an example of the SLD configuration:
