Global settings - AWS SDK for SAP ABAP

Global settings

Use /n/AWS1/IMG IMG transacation for AWS SDK for SAP ABAP, and Custom Business Configuration application for AWS SDK for SAP ABAP - BTP edition to configure the global settings. This topic uses IMG and Custom Business Configuration interchangeably.

This section covers the following topics.

Technical settings

The Global settings of /AWS1/IMG transaction affect the behavior of the entire SDK. These settings are generally configured by a Basis administrator. You can set these values to the following recommended settings.

  • Select New Entries.

    • S3 regionalization: Access us-east-1 buckets by using s3.amazonaws.com.

    • STS regionalization: Access STS by using global endpoint.

    • Disable EC2 metadata: Keep this field blank. This field is read-only in the BTP edition, and is set to 'Yes' by default.

    • Metadata Endpt Mode: Use IPv4 metadata endpoint. This field is read-only in the BTP edition, and is auto-updated.

    • Metadata Endpt URL: Keep this field blank. This field is read-only in the BTP edition.

  • Select Save.

Configure scenarios

Scenarios enable AWS SDK to more efficiently switch settings during a multi-Region disaster testing or disaster recovery testing scenario. You may not need this feature, and instead need only to configure the following DEFAULT scenario.

  • Select New Entries.

    • Scenario ID:DEFAULT

    • Scenario Description: Default Scenario

  • Select Save.

If you have a multi-Region disaster recovery setup or other unique cases that require a quick change of settings, then you can configure multiple scenarios.

  • DEFAULT - Standard operation.

  • DR - Special configuration if a disaster requires moving the entire system to another Region.

  • DR_TEST - Special configuration for simulating a disaster, for example, in a temporary clone of production.
