Install WATCHER and SLABAPCLI

WATCHER is a program that watches for ABAP changes and reports them to SeaLights. SLABAPCLI is a command-line interface program that lets you configure the ABAP Agent and connect it to SeaLights. You can install these on a Windows server or a standalone machine.

  1. Create a new directory named c:\apps\SLABAPAgent. We call this the SLABAPAgent directory.

  2. Create a directory named <SLABAPAgent dir>\config.

  3. Navigate to the directory where you extracted the distribution ZIP file.

  4. Extract the slabapagent-win64\bin directory from the ZIP file to the <SLABAPAgent dir>\bin directory.

  5. Download the latest version of the SAP NW RFC SDK from the SAP ONE Support Launchpad, and extract the files to a temporary directory. You will need the following:

    • NetWeaver RFC SDK 7.50 Patch 13 or above for Windows on X64 64Bit.

      • See SAP NOTE 2573790 for download links. At the time of writing, this shortened URL links to the SAP NOTE.

  6. Copy the following files from the <Temp SAP NW RFC>\lib directory to the <SLABAPAgent dir>\bin directory:

  • icudt57.dll

  • icuin57.dll

  • icuuc57.dll

  • libsapucum.dll

  • sapnwrfc.dll

Log Files

The ABAP agent stores log files for the WATCHER program in the <SLABAPAgent dir>\userdata\public\Logs\<Pipeline name> directory.
