Ini files – Configuration files used in Work Manager 6.3, for example: JavaBE.ini file will include the backend connection information that we just input in the previous step; Java folder will include many *.jar files – Java class files used to interface with SAP backend;
Open the SMP Management Cockpit and create a new application with type “Agentry” and set the Authentication providers with ‘No Authentication Challenge” option.
Save the application and the Agentry application node will be created under the SMP configuration folder, generic ini configuration files area would be generated.
Restart the SMP server, check the startup.log and you can see the message about there is no application and backend loaded yet for this new application. Once Restarted, open the application in the management cockpit and navigate to “APP SPECIFIC SETTINGS”, press the Browse button to import the application zip file “SAPWorkMgr630Deployment-20151103.0552.zip” under Publish tab.
