Set Up Data Acquisition with SAP CP Cloud Connector Before the initial configuration of the SAP CP CC you, or the owner of your organization’s S-User account, must open an SAP Product Support Incident at the following link: https://launchpad.support.sap.com/#incident/solution using the component LOD-ANA-BI. 6 Your support ticket should include: • A statement about wanting to set up data acquisition with the SAP CP CC • Your SAP Analytics Cloud tenant URL • Your S-User account ID EXAMPLE: Dear SAP Support, I would like to set up data acquisition with the SAP Cloud Platform Cloud Connector in SAP Analytics Cloud. My tenant URL is: <your Tenant URL> My S-User ID is: <your S-User> NOTE: Once our Operations team has configured a subaccount for data acquisition on your SAP Analytics Cloud system, you will be able to complete the following steps successfully. Depending on the day and our workload, typically we will get back to you within an hour or the next business day. 7 If you do not know your S-User account ID, contact the person within your company who is handling your SAP account. If you do not know who this person is, contact SAP Support. 5. Install SAP Analytics Cloud Agent The SAP Analytics Cloud Agent (SAC Agent) is a WAR file that can be deployed on Tomcat application server. There are two ways to do this: 1. Install a separate Tomcat application server to deploy SAC Agent WAR file as described in the Install Apache Tomcat section below 2. Use an existing Tomcat Java application server running in your environment NOTE: It is recommended that you install a separate Tomcat server since the SAC Agent may require updates. This way you can take advantage of the new connectivity types being offered in SAP Analytics Cloud. For more information, see Updating SAP Analytics Cloud Agent. 1. Install Apache Tomcat 1. To install Apache Tomcat, please visit Apache Tomcat Website and download the 32/64-bit Windows Server Installer. NOTE: Apache Tomcat 7 or higher, as well as 64-bit Apache Tomcat must be installed. 8 2. Once you download Apache Tomcat, start the installation. NOTE: Under Java Virtual Machine make sure to point to SAP JVM folder installed above. 9 3. Once you complete the installation, navigate to the “bin” folder within the Tomcat destination folder and double click Tomcat8w.exe 4. In the Tomcat properties directory, navigate to the Java tab and increase the Initial Memory Pool and Maximum Memory Pool values to 1024MB and 2048MB respectively. This will ensure you avoid any timeout errors when acquiring larger data sets in SAC. 10 5. Start Tomcat if it’s not running. NOTE: Under the General tab you can choose the Startup type as Automatic. This will enable Tomcat to run automatically after startup. You can also start/stop the Tomcat application by clicking on the ‘Start’ or ‘Stop’ buttons. 11 2. Deploy SAP Analytics Cloud Agent 1. Go to SAP Software Downloads page and enter ‘SAP Analytics Cloud Agent’ into the search bar at the top. 2. Click the SAP Analytics Cloud Agent and download the zip file of the latest version. 12 3. Extract the zip file and copy the file C4A_AGENT.war to your Tomcat > webapps directory 4. Create a user for the SAP Analytics Cloud agent and assign the Services role to the user A. Navigate to Tomcat > conf directory: 13 B. To create a user, open the tomcat-users.xml file in Notepad and add the following lines: <role rolename="Services"/> <user username="CloudAgent" password="Welcome1" roles="Services"/> 14 NOTE: Replace CloudAgent with a user name for the SAP Analytics Cloud agent, and replace Welcome1 with a password for the user. 15 The user credentials will be needed later for setting up the connection to SAP Analytics Cloud Agent. For more information about how to create the user and assign the role, see Configuring Manager Application Access. 5. Save the tomcat-users.xml file. 6. Start Tomcat by double clicking the Tomcat8.exe file located in the Tomcat installation folder. EXAMPLE: C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 8.5\bin 7. To ensure that Tomcat is up and running, enter your Tomcat server hostname along with default Tomcat port 8080 in your browser. NOTE: To find your Tomcat server hostname on Microsoft Windows, navigate to: Control Panel > System and Security > System. Your Tomcat server hostname is the same as your Full computer name as shown below. If your Tomcat is connected, the following screen should appear. 16 8. Test if the SAP Analytics Cloud Agent installation was successful by opening the following URL in your browser: http://<Host>:<Port>/C4A_AGENT/deploymentInfo EXAMPLE: http://Full_Computer_Name:8080/C4A_AGENT/deploymentInfo A. If prompted in the browser, provide the necessary information: • User Name: Agent user name specified in tomcat-users.xml file • Password: Agent password specified in tomcat-users.xml file B. The version of the deployed SAP Analytics Cloud Agent should be displayed like below: To make this connection work, you will need an Apache Tomcat with SAP Analytics Cloud Agent and SAP CP Cloud Connector to be setup. 1. Install a separate Tomcat application server to deploy SAC Agent WAR file as described in the Install Apache Tomcat section below 2. Use an existing Tomcat Java application server running in your environment 6. Configure the SAP CP Cloud Connector 17 1. Launch the SAPCP Cloud Connector administration page and login using: https://<SAPCPCC_HOST>:<SAPCPCC_PORT> A. Replace <SAPCPCC_HOST> with the host name of the system where the cloud connector is installed B. https://localhost:8443 can be used if accessing from the same machine where SAP CP CC is installed with 8443 as the default port NOTE: Depending on your browser, you may encounter an error message such as the ones below. To proceed, click on the Advanced button for Chrome or click on ‘Continue to this Website’ for Internet Explorer. 2. Login to SAP CP CC.
