Running SAP Suite adapter for JCo 3.x in an External JVM

You can run the “little-a” part of the SAP Suite Adapter for JCo 3.x in an external JVM.

The adapter now supports the general “External JVM” feature available in Sterling B2B Integrator for all adapters that are released for this feature. You can run the "little-a" part of the adapter in a separate node of Sterling B2B Integrator.

Note: SAP JCo 3.x is not compatible with earlier versions of the SAP JCo 2.x libraries. The SAP Suite adapter for JCo 2.x will not function correctly if configured with the JCo 3.x libraries. However, if both the SAP Suite adapter for JCo 2.x and the SAP Suite adapter for JCo 3.x are configured correctly with the appropriate JCo library versions, then they can exist on the same system and will function correctly.

The External JVM feature provided by SAP Suite 2.x is not supported for the SAP Suite adapter for JCo 3.x. Instead, you should run the little-a part of the SAP Suite Adapter for JCo 3.x in an external JVM (a general feature of the adapter container node). However, the External JVM feature continues to be supported for the SAP Suite adapter for JCo 2.x.
