If you don't enable this option, the credentials are stored in the repository or on a local Secure Agent, depending on how your organization is configured. For information about how to configure and use a secrets manager, see Secrets manager configuration. |

SAP Additional Parameters | Additional SAP properties that the Secure Agent uses to connect to the SAP system as an RFC client. See the following examples where you can use this field to configure additional parameters for the connection:
GROUP=interfaces MSHOST=<Message server hostname> R3NAME=<System ID or name of SAP system> SAP infers the connection type based on the parameters that you specify. For example, if you define the GROUP, MSHOST, and R3NAME parameters, SAP infers the connection type as a load balancing connection. The GROUP parameter defines the group name of the SAP application server. The MSHOST parameter defines the host name of the SAP message server. The R3NAME parameter defines the system ID or name of the SAP system. For more information, see How to configure the SAP Secure Network Communication protocol Informatica How-To Library article. If you specify a property both in the dedicated connection field and in the SAP Additional Parameters field, the value specified in the SAP Additional Parameters field takes precedence. For more information about SAP parameters, see the SAP documentation. |
Jco Trace | Determines whether to track the JCo calls that the SAP system makes. Default is disable. By default, SAP doesn't store information about the JCo calls in a trace file. If you enable JCo trace, you can access the JCo trace file from the following directory: <Informatica Secure Agent installation directory>\apps\Data_Integration_Server\<latest_version>\ICS\main\bin\rdtm |
