Task 4: Creating the saprfc.ini file
To assist you in creating the saprfc.ini file, HP Output Manager for SAP provides a template saprfc.ini file
in the installDir/lib directory. You can copy the file and modify it to correspond to the configuration of your SAP
R/3 installation. The template file includes a protected R/3 user name and password. HP recommends setting the file
mode to read-only for the server’s process owner.
Before you modify the saprfc.ini file, do one of the following:
• Create an HP SAPconnect server working directory with the following path name and copy the saprfc.ini
template file to it from installDir/lib:
installDir/var/sap/serverName
where installDir refers to the pathname of the location where HP Output Server is installed and serverName is
the name you choose for the HP SAPconnect server.
-or-
• Set the RFC_INI environment variable to point to the location of the saprfc.ini file, as shown in the
following examples:
On UNIX (Korn shell):
export RFC_INI=/home/myhome/secret/saprfc.ini
On Windows from the command prompt:
set RFC_INI=c:\home\myhome\secret\saprfc.ini
NOTE: If you plan to configure multiple HP SAPconnect servers, you must create a working
directory for each server and place a separate saprfc.ini file in each working
directory. For more information about creating multiple HP SAPconnect servers, see
“Configuring SAPoffice to work with HP SAPconnect server” in this section.
The following is a sample saprfc.ini file.
DEST=RFC destination
TYPE=R
PROGID=HPsapconnect-server.dzl_sapcond
GWHOST=SAPhost
GWSERV=sapgwSYSNR
RFC_TRACE=0
DEST=SAP system ID
TYPE=A
ASHOST=SAPhost
