Improving Resiliency #4: avoid impacts to r3batch when SAP have enabled trace to BTCOPTIONS BATCHTRACE_MODULE / BAPI_XMI_LOGON

TWS was unable to establish a RFC connection with SAP and submit jobs when a trace was enabled to BTCOPTIONS BATCHTRACE_MODULE / BAPI_XMI_LOGON in SAP system.

 

Through the logs, the error returned was limited to "EEWO0950W the RFC user is already logged on", not providing a clear message to what could be the root cause of the issue.

 

While the trace was enabled to BTCOPTIONS BATCHTRACE_MODULE / BAPI_XMI_LOGON in SAP, the r3batch seemed to not provide the correct INTERFACE and XBP values, which prevented the operation (submit job) to complete.

 

It is required that the r3batch parses the correct arguments to the SAP system, or TWS to avoid being impacted when traces are enabled in SAP system.
