2 XML Accelerator Administration

Introduction

What is this section for, what is the SAP XML Accelerator GUI, what kind of GUI is it? What does the
GUI allow me to do?

This section is for users of the HP XML Accelerator For NetWeaver PI. It is a guide to the
administration functions and use of the browser for the Converter and Adapter components of
the system. .

What form does the GUI take?

The GUI is a web based interface that is hosted by the same server that PI is installed on. The
GUI communicates with server components that expose the functionality and configuration
options of the XML Accelerator system.

What functionality does the GUI provide?

The GUI provides access to the two main components of the system, the Converter and the
Adapter. The Converter allows the user to convert SAP graphical mappings to work with the
Adapter to use the XML Accelerator. The Adapter also has user features which enable control,
diagnostics and monitoring of the accelerator system.

The Convertor allows the user to compile and test the Message Mappings for the XML Accelerator.
The Adapter user interface features include a component for the driver and a component for the
physical XML card. The driver component allows the user to load, unload, inspect and configure
the device drivers that are currently operating the XML Accelerator card. The card or hardware
component allows the user to activate, deactivate, diagnose, inspect and configure the physical
card installed in the SAP server system.

Each of these component features will be expanded upon later in with detailed descriptions of
all the configuration options, actions and data views.
