Create HTTP connection

Define the endpoint of the SMSSMEX Web-Service for communication between SAP Solution Manager and Apache Tomcat.

Search for	Example	Results
A single word	`cat`	Topics that contain the word "cat". You will also find its grammatical variations, such as "cats".
A phrase. You can specify that the search results contain a specific phrase.	`"cat food"` (quotation marks)	Topics that contain the literal phrase "cat food" and all its grammatical variations. Without the quotation marks, the query is equivalent to specifying an OR operator, which finds topics with one of the individual words instead of the phrase.

Search for	Operator	Example
Two or more words in the same topic	`AND` `and` `+` (plus symbol) `&` (ampersand)	`cat AND dog` `"cat food"+milk` `"cat food"&"dog food"`
Either word in a topic	`OR` `or` `\|` (pipe)	`cat OR dog` `cat \| dog`
Topics that do not contain a specific word or phrase	`NOT` `not` `!` (exclamation point)	`NOT cat` `! dog`
Topics that contain one string and do not contain another	`^` (caret)	`cat ^ mouse`
A combination of search types	`( )` parentheses	`cat + (dog \| mouse)` `cat \| dog + (! mouse)`

Select transaction /nsm59.

Create an RFC destination of type G (HTTP connection to external server).

Go to the Technical settings tab and specify the endpoint of the SMSSMEX Web-Service. The default is:

Target Host: <host>
Service No: <port>
Path Prefix: /ovictex/services/ICT_SERVICE_DESK_APISoapBinding

Add the endpoint in the RFC destination. Your network configuration may require specification of a proxy. The following example shows the RFC destination for host itsamqavm130.

In the Logon & Security tab, define the security settings for outgoing requests. Select Basic Authentication for HTTP basic authentication. Add the user and password specified in ovictex.properties for HTTP basic authentication. The more secure SSL communication configuration is described in the security chapter of the manual. You can also select No Logon which is the default selection for “Logon&Security”.
