Steps to be performed for updating SAP JCo Libraries with TIBCO ActiveMatrix BusinessWorks(TM) 5.x and TIBCO ActiveMatrix(R) Adapter for SAP

Updating SAP JCo Libraries with TIBCO ActiveMatrix BusinessWorks(TM) 5.x and TIBCO ActiveMatrix(R) Adapter for SAP

All Supported Systems

For the adapter runtime, the JCo libraries must be present in the application's classpath so that JVM could load it. We define the classpath in the application's tra file. While upgrading SAP JCo libraries, we just need to make sure that the new JCo path is used in the application's classpath.
 

Prerequisites:

Complete the SAP installation.
Ensure that sapjco3.jar file and corresponding library are present on your local machine.

Procedure:

1. Update SAP JCo libraries by replacing the old JCo with new JCo files, Steps to follow for this:

1) Stop all the running TIBCO ActiveMatrix Adapter for SAP applications.
2) Remove old SAP JCo libraries from the path. (The path which you provided for SAP JCo libraries while installing SAP Adapter)
3) Update with new JCo libraries in the path mentioned in step 2.
4) Start the TIBCO ActiveMatrix Adapter for SAP applications.

2.  Update SAP JCo libraries by changing the classpath in adr3.tra and designer.tra files.

1) Stop all the running TIBCO ActiveMatrix Adapter for SAP applications.
2) You can append a new path where new SAP JCo libraries are present to these properties tibco.env.CUSTOM_PATH and tibco.env.CUSTOM_CP_EXT in adr3.tra file. Please remove the old SAP JCo libraries path while appending the new one.
3) You can append a new path where new SAP JCo libraries are present to these properties tibco.env.CUSTOM_CP_EXT and tibco.env.CUSTOM_LIB_PATH in designer.tra file. Please remove the old SAP JCo libraries path while appending the new one.
4) Start the TIBCO ActiveMatrix Adapter for SAP applications.

Note:

Shut down TIBCO Designer and TIBCO ActiveMatrix(R) Adapter for SAP applications before updating SAP JCo Libraries.
Restart TIBCO Designer and TIBCO ActiveMatrix(R) Adapter for SAP applications after updating SAP JCo Libraries.
