*.SAR) that can be extracted using the SAPCAR command line tool. The different
SAPCAR files are located in a DATA folder below the respective package folder
named as the package and SAP release (e.g.
INST_BAS_620/DATA/OTEXBAS_INST_0961_620.SAR contains the archived PAT file
to install the package for SAP basis release 6.20).
Note: The handling of the installation procedure within SAINT differs
depending on the SAP system used. For more details, see the respective SAP
documentation.

3.3

3.

Configuring components

Execute the DocuLink administration transaction J6NA to maintain the tables


/IXOS/RSA_T_CONF and /IXOS/RSA_T_RENS.

3.3.2 Configuration for the Java Viewer or the Web Viewer


New: The customizing procedure with the /ixos/oa_cust table has been
superseded by the parameters defined in the new /ixos/oa_cust_a table.
By default, documents that are opened from within the SAP GUI are displayed in
the SAP viewer, or, if it is installed, in Windows Viewer. Compared to the SAP
viewer, Windows Viewer offers additional functionality to edit documents,
however, it requires an additional client installation. If you would like to take
advantage of additional viewer functionality without an additional installation
process, you can use the Java Viewer or the Web Viewer.
To do so, you may configure the viewer integration on the SAP server in a way that
the required viewer will be used.
To maintain the imaging integration:

Activate the user exit to use a different viewer than the standard SAP viewer:
a.

Execute the SE16 transaction and open the TOAEX table.

b.

Create a new entry with these values:


EXIT_ID = OA_OBJECTDISPLAY_01
ACTIVE = X
EXIT_FUB = /IXOS/OA_X_OA_OBJECTDISPLAY_01

After installation, the viewer components must be configured and customized using
the following tables:

/ixos/oa_cust_a

General settings, default values used

/ixos/oa_doctype

Document classes and their viewer types (if not defined, the default viewer for
ArchiveLink documents will be used)

/ixos/oa_locales

Languages used (optional, for Web Viewer only)

/ixos/oa_iprange

IP settings used to optimize network performance (optional, for Web Viewer


only)

ER090602-IGD-EN

/ixos/oa_cust3
Force MimeType settings to display documents

Open Text Archiving and Document Access for SAP Solutions 9.6.2

17

Chapter 3 Installing Basis package

To configure the external viewer:


1.

Execute the SM30 transaction and open the /ixos/oa_cust_a table.

2.

Define the following settings:


Path and Script/appl
For the Web Viewer only: Storage location of the viewer script. By default this
is:
/cgi-bin/JAVAVW/ixosjv.pl

For the Web Viewer 9.6 only: By default the value is:
WebViewer
Use Java-/Webviewer
Possible values:
No
No external viewer is used.
Yes, if winviewer is not installed locally
The external viewer specified in the Type of Viewer field is used if the
Windows Viewer is not installed locally.

Configuring components

Yes, if SET/GET parameter /IXOS/OA_JV = X


User-specific configuration; if the SET/GET parameter /IXOS/OA_JV = X
(defined in the user profile), the external viewer specified in the Type of
Viewer field is used.
Yes
The external viewer specified in the Type of Viewer field is always used.
Type of Viewer
Possible values:
Java Viewer
Java Viewer
Web Viewer
Web Viewer
Disable Caching
Specifies whether the information on the cache server stored in ArchiveLink
Cache Customizing is used when generating the URL.
Disable Applet Inpl.
For the Java Viewer only: Specifies whether the Java Viewer is started in its
own browser window.
The height and width of this window can be defined using the subsequent
Viewer window width and Viewer window heigth parameters.
Use cached build
For the Java Viewer only: Specifies whether the Java Viewer with a specific
build number is used.
You can find the build number in the w3vw.cab file on the Archive and
Storage Services, in the <IXOS_ROOT>\w3\htdocs\JAVAVW directory). Open
the IXOS_JavaViewer.osd file which is included in it. The build number is
located in the fifth row, within the VERSION tags, e.g.
<VERSION>5,2,2003,116</VERSION>.
Use https
If activated, the secure HTTPS protocol is used when the script is run.
3.

If you selected the Web Viewer option above in the Type of Viewer field, you
can specify the following additional parameters for default settings:
Don't show Thumbs
Deactivates the default display of thumbnails.
Don't show Header
Deactivates the default display of the header line.
Show Notes
Activates the default display of document notes.
Open in curr. Window
Stops Web Viewer from opening a new browser window; viewer uses
current window instead.

Chapter 3 Installing Basis package

Authority Check
Activates evaluation of authorization object J_6NV_WEBV which defines rules
for accessing and processing documents.
4.
Note: The following step describes the former customizing procedure with the
/ixos/oa_cust table. Note that the above procedure substitutes the use of the
/ixos/oa_cust table.
If documents are stored in a logical archive on an archive server where Java
Viewer or Web Viewer is not installed, you can specify a different server to start
the viewer from in the /ixos/oa_cust table.
a.

Execute the SE16 transaction and open the /ixos/oa_cust table.

b.

Define the following parameters:


ARCHIV_ID
ID of the logical archive for which the settings are defined
HTTP_SERV
Name of the HTTP server on which the viewer is installed. Use the
syntax:
<server name>:<port>

For the Web Viewer only: Enter the port for Tomcat.
SCRIPT
For the Web Viewer only: Storage location of the viewer script. By default
this is:
<IXOS_ROOT>/w3/cgi-bin/JAVAVW/ixosjv.pl
For the Web Viewer 9.6 only: By default the value is:
WebViewer
c.

By default, the current SAP user is inserted in the URL when the viewer is
started. You can deactivate this setting; however, as a result you can not
create notes to a document in the Web Viewer. For the Java Viewer, the
operating system user is inserted in this case, and notes can still be created.
To deactivate the insertion of the user parameter in the URL, select the
DISABLE_USER option in the /ixos/oa_cust table.

To configure the document classes:


1.

Execute the SM30 transaction and open the /ixos/oa_doctype table.

2.

Define the following settings:


Type
Enter the document extension without leading dot, e.g. JPG for JPEG image
documents.

Installation and Upgrade Guide

ER090602-IGD-EN

3.4

Rendition management

- Customizing and Administration Guide (DC-CGD). If you want to use these projects,
you must define a number of additional settings in the SAP application.

If you want to test the authorization check on data selection in the sample project
Linked objects then you must also assign the users the profile J_6NB_PROF
supplied with the sample project.

In order to archive documents for customers within the document flow SD, the
archive must be set correctly in OAC3 transaction for the link J_6NGDKOR (object
type)/J_6NGDKORR (document type).
Note: Each customer has its own logical archive. Since we are not familiar
with these archives, we supply our own archive name DU set as the default.

In order to archive documents for customers in the sample project Linked


objects, the archive must be set correctly in OAC3 transaction for the link
J_6NG_CUST/J_6NG_CUST.
Note: Each customer has its own logical archive. Since we are not familiar
with these archives, we supply our own archive name DU set as the default.

Some number range intervals are required for the sample projects; use the SNRO
transaction to maintain them:
For $EX_LINK (Linked objects) and $EX_FOLDER (Folder demo (recurrent
structure)) maintain interval 01 for the number range J_6NG_DIV. Enter
1000 as the starting number.

For $EX_CMDEMO (Demo CM document model) maintain the same number


range J_6NG_DIV, but with a different interval and distinct values, e.g.
interval 02 from 1000000001 - 2000000000 if the interval 01 from 1000 1000000000 was used for $EX_LINK.

3.4 Rendition management


The rendition management consists of the Open Text Rendition Services API (also
referred to as Rendition Server API) and two DocuLink monitoring projects called
RSUMONITOR and RS_TRFC_ST. Both monitoring projects may be downloaded from
the Open Text Knowledge Center.
The Rendition Server API is a prerequisite for Livelink ECM Imaging:
DesktopLink and is also required when document processing/output utilizing the
Open Text Rendition Services shall be used in DocuLink.
The optional DocuLink monitoring projects called RSUMONITOR and RS_TRFC_ST are
utilities to review the logs of document renditions processed by the Rendition
Server API. RS_TRFC_ST is used for the display of the My job overview feature
within DocuLink.
Notes:

ER090602-IGD-EN

Rendition management also requires the installation of Open Text


Rendition Services as described in the Open Text Rendition Services Installation and Administration Guide (RS-IGD).

As a special option, the upgrade from Livelink ECM Suite for SAP Solutions 9.5.2
to Open Text Archiving and Document Access for SAP Solutions 9.6.2 is possible. As
version 9.5.2 is only running on SAP R/3 4.6C, the upgrade to 9.6.2 can only be
performed in conjunction with an upgrade of the SAP system to a higher release.
The only path supported is an upgrade from SAP R/3 4.6C to SAP ERP 6.0.
This is done by using the so-called exchange upgrade packages during the upgrade of
the SAP system.

Handling communication protocols


Communication protocols define the way a document class is handled in SAP
applications. A protocol is assigned to an archive (content repository, storage
system). This ensures that all documents of a document class held in the same
archive (content repository) are handled in the same way.
Tip: For more information on protocols, see Section 21.1.1.1 "Communication
protocols in SAP applications" in Open Text Archiving and Document Access for
SAP Solutions - Scenario Guide (ER-CCS).
This chapter describes the handling of the ArchiveLink communication protocols on
an SAP application server. You have to perform a manual configuration of the two
main protocols IX_OLEU1 and IX_HTTP2.

7.1 Maintaining OLE application


The OLE applications for Livelink Archive Windows Viewer (ALVIEWER.APP) and
Livelink Imaging: Enterprise Scan (IXOS.IXSCAN.SC2SAP) have to be modified or
created if they do not exist yet.
To modify or create OLE applications:
1.

Execute the SOLE transaction and go to change mode.

2.

Check if OLE applications ALVIEWER.APP and IXOS.IXSCAN.SC2SAP exist.

3.

Create or check the Livelink Archive Windows Viewer application using the
following values:

Troubleshooting
When general problems occur during installation, check the following points, or
carry out the tasks described:
1.

Check if the SAP basis version on your system is supported by the component
you would like to install (see the latest Release Notes in the ESC).

2.

For Oracle database only: Check whether the OracleTCPListener has been started
on the SAP database server.

3.

Check the transport directory in the /usr/sap/trans/bin/TPPARAM file; it


should be specified as the global parameter transdir. Copy the data and the
co-file into this directory. Repeat the addtobuffer and import commands.

4.

Modify the TPPARAM file so that the comments are on a separate line like in the
following example:
# SID
<SID>/dbname = <SID>
# TCP/IP name of transport host
<SID>/dbhost = <TRNASHOST>
# <DBTYPE>: ora sqd mss
<SID>/dbtype = <DBTYPE>
# normally PATH linked to \\<TRANSHOST>\sapmnt\<SID>\SYS\exe\run
<SID>/r3transpath = R3trans.exe
# normally PATH linked to \\<TRANSHOST>\sapmnt\<SID>\SYS\exe\run
<SID>/sapevtpath = sapevt.exe

5.

For DocuLink only: Check if the ZAUTHCUST structure exists (see Checking
ZAUTHCUST structure on page 13).

6.

Check if the correct authorizations and number ranges were defined.
