3 SCOT configuration process
In order SAP system to be able to send an email we need to configure SCOT. Below are the process
of the SCOT configuration
1. Verify the profile parameters in system
As a part of the Base build the Profile parameters would be created. However
please check if the following profile parameters are setup.
icm/server_port_2 = PROT=SMTP,PORT=25000,TIMEOUT=300
is/SMTP/virt_host_0 = *:25000;
If the above parameters are not available in the profile parameters then they
need to be created. Create then using RZ10 and restart the instance in order
to take effect the changes.
