Installing the SAP Cryptographic Library on Informatica

Installing the SAP Cryptographic Library on Informatica

  1. Download the SAP Cryptographic Library from the SAP web site.
  2. Connect to the machine on which the Informatica services are installed with the ID of the user who starts the Informatica services.
  3. Extract the contents of the SAP Cryptographic Library installation package.
  4. Copy the
    libsapcrypto.so
     library file to the following directory:
    <PowerCenter Installation Directory>/server/bin
  5. Copy the
    sapgenpse.exe
     configuration tool to the following directory:
    <PowerCenter Installation Directory>/server/bin/sec
  6. Copy the ticket file to the following directory:
    <PowerCenter Installation Directory>/server/bin/sec
  7. Add the following information in the profile of the user who starts the Informatica services: 
    SNC_LIB=<PowerCenter Installation Directory>/server/bin/libsapcrypto.so; export SNC_LIB 
SECUDIR=<PowerCenter Installation Directory>/server/bin/sec; export SECUDIR 
USER=<Name of the user who starts the Informatica services>; export USER
    Set the library path to the following directory:
    <PowerCenter Installation Directory>/server/bin/sec
    For example, on an HP-UX operating system, set the library path as follows:
    SHLIB_PATH=<PowerCenter Installation Directory>/server/bin/sec:$ORACLE_HOME/lib; export SHLIB_PATH
    This step defines where the SNC library file and ticket file are stored, and the name of the user who will execute the SNC functions.
  8. Restart the Informatica services to apply the changes.
    To secure communications between a PowerCenter Client and an SAP server by using the SNC protocol, repeat these steps on the machine on which the Powercenter Client is installed.
