AW: SAP MAPI

[Schmidinger, Heinz (Unaxis IT BZ)]

Hi Alon,
the approach to use a dedicated application server was primary not to =
waste
dialog-ressources on the other servers.
So we use a dedicated server with lower memory settings for the users =
and
otpmized Parameters for RFC-Connections.
 
Double Login:
 
A Dialog-User is doing his 'normal'-login with the GUI, but this =
connection
is not used by the MAPI-Connetor. The MAPI connector is doing every =
time his
own login. So you have a User twice, he consumes the ressources twice.
 
 
Greetings
 
Heinz

Hi Heinz,
=20
I am very interested to hear more about your dedicated App Server
approach. I assume it was done to have more RFC logons so MAPI could
connect to it. Is that right? What did you mean by 'double login'
through RFC? Can you expand?

Hi Diane,
=20
Mentioned before, we have installed MAPI-Connectioned and are have
started
to reinstall it.
=20
Advantages of MAPI: User can process their WI's and Mail-attached
Objects
out of Outlook/Exchange and the folder is synchronized most time.
=20
But: greater Problems we got because users are forwarding SAP-Items out
of
the MAPI-Folder to other User's. The receiving USer cann't do nothing
with
this and is frustrated or confused because he gets only an =
authorication
error from SAP (reason is, that the content of the forwarded dok is the
key
pointing to the Users SAP-Office-Folder.
Another unliked thing is, that users are creating non-SAP-related mails
out
of the MAPI-Box. This mails become automaticly SAP-Mails and are =
filling
the
expensivest Storage we have.
Also bad is that the User don't see the Status of the Connection. So
she/he
belives nothing was coming in but in reality the Connection is
disconnected
by max. connection time.
Reaching at about 100 USers we have had to install an own
Application-Server
for the MAPI-Connections, because otherwise the Users waste to much
Memory
(double login through RFC).
=20
maybe this helps a littel bit.
=20
regards

We are in the process of considering the best way to send SAP email and
work
items to Outlook.  Are there any suggestions from successful
implementers
that anyone wants to share.  Appreciate any information that could help
alleviate future problems and concerns.

Hi All,
=20
As yet we havent heard back from Alan regarding our 'discussion' on SAP
MAPI
and its 200 user limitation. Perhaps Jocelyn would care to comment?
=20
Just out of interest, who in the WUG is using SAP MAPI in a production
environment? If you are using SAP MAPI in PRD then how many users is
your
site currently running?
