Liquid UI for iOS enables connections to both the SAP server and the Liquid UI Message Server. The Liquid UI Message Server acts as a load distributor, managing communication between multiple SAP application servers and the Liquid UI server, thereby ensuring effective load balancing.
This article details how to configure Liquid UI for iOS app to connect to a message server, which reduces the number of connections and helps balance the load to the Liquid UI Server.
To connect to a message server, please do the following:
- Open the Liquid UI for iOS app. On the Server Connections screen, click Add Connection to add a new server connection. Fill in the required details and click Connect to My SAP, as shown in the image below.
As per the above image, the connection parameters have the following details:
/M/<serverName>/S/<port number>/G/<groupName>
Here are the details of the parameters in the string:
- M - Specifies that the connection is via the message server.
- S - Indicates the port number that connects to the message server.
- G - Specifies the group name.
Note: This string specifies that instead of connecting to an SAP server, you are connecting via a message server.
- Now, you can connect to the SAP application server through the message server.
Note: You can also use a Liquid UI Server as a message server. To connect to a Liquid UI message server, input a string in the same format, but instead of the SAP message server name, input the Liquid UI message server name.
