Table 2–1 General Customizing Parameters

Parameter 

Description 

N1 AA Module 

Value 

none.general.auth.analyzer

Determines if the Analyzer menu is available in the GUI or not 

Mandatory for: Analyzer 

Insert this parameter with any value to make the menu available 

none.general.auth.builder

Determines if the Builder menu is available in the GUI or not

none.general.auth.deployment

Mandatory for: Deployer 

Insert this parameter with any value to make the menu available 

none.general.n1aa.communication

Defines the communication from the N1 AA Server to the N1 AA Clients. 

 

The Analyzer uses simple OS commands on the N1 AA Clients to import the Performance Collector data: 

  • Localhost: N1 AA Server

  • Remote host: All N1 AA Clients

  • OS User: noaccess

  • OS Commands: tail, cat, and logadm

Configure this parameter with the prefix to use in front of the fixed coded part. See examples. 


Note –

You can add an additional parameter servergroup.general.n1aa.communication.

For example, if there is a server group DEV configured, than you can overwrite the value customized by parameter none.general.n1aa.communication specifically in the server group DEV by adding the parameter dev.general.n1aa.communication.

This overwrites the parameter none.general.n1aa.communication within this dedicated server group. You could configure the communication type server group dependently.

This parameter must be in line with the configured communication method OS level. This is normally done during the installation process of N1 AA. For more information see the Sun N1 Advanced Architecture for SAP Solutions 5.2.1 Installation Guide.
