Global settings - Amazon SDK for SAP ABAP
Services or capabilities described in Amazon Web Services documentation might vary by Region. To see the differences applicable to the China Regions, see Getting Started with Amazon Web Services in China (PDF).

Global settings

Use /n/AWS1/IMG IMG transacation for Amazon SDK for SAP ABAP, and Custom Business Configuration application for Amazon 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 Amazon 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.
