ITS 6.20 is long term supported for SAP products based on
SAP NetWeaver 2004 and below as long as these products are
supported. On SAP NetWeaver systems we recommend the use of the
integrated ITS.
ITS 6.20 standalone cannot be used with SAP NetWeaver 7.0. Therefore,
ITS services based on Flow Logic and WebRFC are no longer supported
with SAP NetWeaver 7.0.
Because SAP integrated ITS is part of the SAP kernel, the maintenance
is as long as the maintenance for the SAP kernel

What Ar e The Advant ages of I nt egr at ed I TS?
highly reduced memory consumption
highly reduced CPU consumption
supported on all platforms of SAP NetWeaver AS
much better stability due to session isolation; In case of a server
crash, with ITS 6.20 all users lose their session, with integrated
ITS only one session is affected!
simplified system landscape without separate ITS Agate and Web
servers
simplified administration which can be done by SAP basis

Admi ni st r at i on of I nt egr at ed I TS
Good new s: If you have a running SAP NetWeaver Application
Server the administration of integrated ITS is very easy compared
to standalone ITS.
There is just one important parameter you should care of
em/global_area_MB
This parameter sets the size of the gl obal shared memory which is
being used from all work processes and holds the ITS session and
template data.

Runni ng I ACs Wi t h The I nt egr at ed I TS (1)
Services written for standalone ITS dont run out of the box with the
integrated ITS. They have to be configured in Internet Communication
Framework (ICF) of SAP NetWeaver Application Server.
Reason: SAP NetWeaver AS and ITS standalone were too different to
make them fully compatible. But differences are mostly hidden. For a
dynpro-based IAC service developed according to our recommen-
dations, it only takes minutes to migrate it to the integrated ITS.
How t o r un a dynpr o based I AC ser vi c e w i t h i nt egr at ed I TS:
Publish the service in SE80 to site Internal .
Create service in ICF of NetWeaver Application Server (recommended
location below /sap/bc/gui/sap/its) with transaction SICF
Bind the service to ITS handler class and configure a GUI connection
Add required parameters from standalone ITS service to ICF service
Run the service from ICF

Runni ng I ACs Wi t h The I nt egr at ed I TS (2)
1.) Di f f er enc es bet w een st andal one I TS and i nt egr at ed I TS
you have t o k eep i n mi nd
no global service available in ICF, from where other services inherit
parameter settings
no ITS login available. Logon always means to logon to the
SAP server, which receives requests before ITS. A custom login page
handler class can be defined in SICF in the service definition
hard coded mime references with path /sap/its/mimes dont work.
Use ~UrlMime instead to get correct mime path.
ICF doesnt understand ITS specific parameters like ~login,
~language, ~password, ~client in the URL. Use sap-user,
sap-language, sap-password, sap-client instead.
using ~service in URL doesnt work. Use the service name directly.

It does not support multiple sessions. If you need multiple sessions you
have to do multiple logins.
