Trust between SAP EP and a backend system
For the portal to communicate with backend systems, a trust
has to established between them. This is done by public-key certificate. The
party wishing to start communication has to present this certificate and the
other party has to accept it. There is
only one certificate, the only default certificate called as
SAPLOGONTICKETKEYPAIR-CERT.
The sertificate has been exported. You need to import it in the backend system. Login to the system, run transaction strustsso2 and choose Import Certificate and select the certificate that you previously exported. Choose Add to Certificate List. Choose Add to ACL.
System Alias
System Alias is a name given to a system. using this name, Portal objects refer to the system using its Alias. A system can have more than 1 system Alsias. but a Alias can not be assigned to more that 1 system.
Alias is a unique idntifier of a System. So for a R/3 development system, the Alias will be differen from that of a R/3 Quality system. So during transport, Alias will not get transported. So new system Aliases has to be defined after transport.
Portal components identify backend system using its Alias. These Alias are defined at design time in the PCD. But SAP EP also provides the option of dynamic system resolution.
dynamic system resolution
At design time, portal component refers to a Alias. At runtime, this Alias resolves to a system based on the conditions. For this resolution to happen, a custom service must exist. At runtime, the portal runtime checks in the PCD whether a custom service is associated with an Alias or not. If a custom service is there, it is used to resolve the Alias to a system. If it is not there, Alias is resolved to the system that is defined in PCD.
Managing System Aliases
Managing system Alias include adding new aliases, editing existing aliases, removing aliases, assigning
existing, unassigned aliases, and assigning default status to one alias per
specific system. All this can be done in the SAP SLD Overview page of SAP EP.
