Configure the integration in the SAP Solution Manager Wizard

The SAP Solution Manager Wizard enables you to integrate SAP Solution Manager into Tricentis Tosca.

Step 1: Prerequisites

In this step the SAP Solution Manager Wizard verifies whether you have completed the required preparatory steps successfully.

If both prerequisites are marked with green check marks, click Next to go to the next step.

Example of possible messages in the Prerequisites step

If you see the message Current workspace is not a multi-user workspace, create a multi-user workspace as described in chapter "Create multi-user workspaces".

If you see the message SAPnco.dll files are not present in the Tosca installation folder, copy the .dll files as described in chapter "Add SAP .NET Connector 3.0 libraries".

Step 2: Workspace

In this step you provide workspace information.

In the available fields, enter the parameters as described in the table below:

Parameter

Description

Example

Username

User name of the workspace user.

Admin

Password

Workspace password if you use one to log in to the workspace. If not, leave this field empty.

YourPassword

Enter Workspace details

After you have filled all necessary fields, click Next to go to the next step.

Step 3: Solution Manager

In this step you define connection parameters.

You must set the connection type in SAP Solution Manager to Custom Application Server.
SAP Solution Manager Integration supports only the connection type Custom Application Server.

Connection Type in the Connection tab

In the available fields, enter the parameters as described in the table below:

Parameter

Description

Example

SAP Host

This field is filled by default.

C:\Temp

Enter SAP Solution Manager details

After you have filled all necessary fields, click Next to go to the next step.

Step 4: SNC (optional)

The basic SAP security measures are based on user and password authentication. With Secure Network Connection (SNC), you can add a protection layer that secures the communication between two systems.

You must install SNC Client encryption 2.0 when you run the installation of SAP Logon. You can also modify your installation by running the installer once again.

During installation, select the checkbox SNC Client Encryption 2.0.

To ensure that the SNC is installed, follow the steps below:

  1. Go to Control Panel->Edit the system environment variables->Environment variables....

  2. Verify if the following variables point to the sapsncencryption.dll file:

    • SNC_LIB

    • SNC_LIB_64

To configure SNC in the SAP Solution Manager Wizard, follow the steps below:

  1. Select Activate Secure Network Connection.

  2. In SNC Name, enter the name of your SNC partner.

  3. Select the level of protection as described in the table below:

Parameter

Description

Authentication only

This is the minimum protection level in which the system verifies the identity of the communication partners.

Integrity protection

The system checks whether the data has been manipulated during the transfer between the two endpoints of communication.

Privacy protection

Privacy protection includes the following security measures:

  • Encryption of transferred messages

  • Data integrity protection

Maximum security settings available

Select this option to use maximum security settings.

  1. By default, SNC uses Single Sign-On (SSO). Alternatively, you can select SNC logon with user/password (no Single Sign-On) to sign in with your user name and password.

Enter Secure Network Communication details

Click Next to go to the next step.

Step 5: Override RFC Credentials (optional)

By default, Tricentis Tosca uses an RFC interface to communicate with SAP Solution Manager. This interface allows both systems to exchange data.

Alternatively, you can create an encrypted password for the user who connects to SAP Solution Manager. Tricentis Tosca then uses this password to connect to SAP Solution Manager instead of the password that SAP uses by default.

To override the default SAP password, select Override RFC credentials and enter your credentials.

Select Override RFC Credentials

Click Finish to complete the configuration. The subsequent summary screen describes the actions you need to take manually.

Step 5: Further Actions

Last step describes further actions that are required to complete the integration between Tricentis Tosca and SAP Solution Manager.
