Optional: Preparing ICCSAP libraries

If you need to use Content Collector for SAP Applications libraries for the optional component of the Content pattern, then you must package these files into a compressed file and use the sc_drivers_url configuration parameter to download them from an accessible web server.

1. Download the SAP Netweaver SDK 7.50 library from the SAP Service Marketplace using the following link, SAP NW RFC SDK 7.50. Ensure that the library includes the following files: libicudata.so.50, libicudecnumber.so, libicui18n.so.50, libicuuc.so.50, libsapnwrfc.so, and libsapucum.so.

   Note that you need an SAP Support user (S-user) ID to access the SAP Service Marketplace.

2. Download the SAP Cryptographic Library version 8 from the SAP Service Marketplace using the following link, COMMONCRYPTOLIB 8. Ensure that the library includes the following file: libsapcrypto.so

   Note that you need an SAP Support user (S-user) ID to access the SAP Service Marketplace.

3. Download the SAP Java Connector Release 3.1 from the SAP Service Marketplace using the following link, SAP JCO 3.1. Ensure that the library includes the following file: sapjco3.

   Note that you need an SAP Support user (S-user) ID to access the SAP Service Marketplace.

4. Extract all of the content of the packages to a saplibs directory and give read and write permissions to the directory by running the chmod command.

   /saplibs/libicudata.so.50
   /saplibs/libicudecnumber.so
   /saplibs/libicui18n.so.50
   /saplibs/libicuuc.so.50
   /saplibs/libsapcrypto.so
   /saplibs/libsapjco3.so
   /saplibs/libsapnwrfc.so
   /saplibs/libsapucum.so
   /saplibs/sapjco3.jar

5. Compress them into a file (.zip, .tar, .tar.gz, .tar.bz2, .tar.xz) by running the following command.

   zip -r $localpath_to_zip/saplibs.zip saplibs 

   The command generates the path and file name: $localpath_to_zip/saplibs.zip.

6. Use the HTTPd docker image to start a container with the name http.

   docker run -dit --name http -p 8888:80 httpd 

7. Open the container by using the URL http://hostname:8888.
   The hostname is where you run the HTTPd docker image. It displays the following message:

   "it works!"

8. Copy the compressed file to the docker container by running the following command.

   docker cp $localpath_to_zip/saplibs.zip http:/usr/local/apache2/htdocs 

9. The operator downloads the compressed file when you set the value of the sc_drivers_url parameter in the custom resource (CR) to the URL of the file in the HTTPd container: http://hostname:8888/saplibs.zip. The hostname is where you run the HTTPd docker image.

   You set the values of the CR when you create an instance of the starter deployment.
