Enabling Listeners
After you have configured notifications, you must enable the listener so that the associated notifications will communicate appropriately with the listener at run time. You enable the listeners using Integration Server Administrator.
The Status column indicates the readiness of the listener. If the status is Succeeded, the listener is ready to be enabled. If the status is Failed, an error occurred during startup. If an error occurs during startup, the state will not change to "Enabled" when refreshing the page. Errors at this stage typically indicate a problem with either the listener configuration or the network. Review the listener settings and check the network.
For more information on configuring listeners and notifications, see the sections Configuring an RFC Listener and Configuring Listener Notifications.
Note:
When you reload a package that contains enabled listeners, the listeners will be enabled automatically when the package reloads. If the package contains disabled listeners, they will remain disabled when the package reloads.
*To enable a listener
1. In the Adapters menu in the navigation area of the Integration Server Administrator, click Adapter for SAP.
2. In Adapter for SAP menu, click Listeners. The Listeners screen appears.
3. Select Enabled from the list in the State field. Integration Server Administrator enables the listener.
The state changes to "Pending enabled". After refreshing the Listeners page, you should see the state changed to "Enabled".
After a listener is enabled, a connection exists between Adapter for SAP and the SAP system.
Tip:
The Enable all suspended link helps you change the state quickly for multiple listeners.
