BI 4.1 Sp6 SFTP Fingerprint Issue

Hi Everyone,

 

We have a new feature SFTP enabled in BI 4.1 SP6 & above , with this new feature we have the facility to send BO documents securely by SFTP using the Finger Print option.  The detailed procedure is explained in the below discussion and also in the SAP Note 2183131

http://scn.sap.com/community/bi-platform/blog/2015/07/23/sftp-destination-for-sap-businessobjects-bi-platform-41

 

I tried this approach but am facing issues in getting the finger print value. This is what I did

 

  1. Upgraded from BI 4.1 Sp5 to BI 4.1 Sp6
  2. Configured the Adaptive Job Server in the CMC with the SFTP details in the Destination , also enabled Tracing
  3. This enabled the SFTP option in BI launchpad
  4. In BI Launchpad I scheduled a report to the SFTP location by specifying the host/user details with a dummy fingerprint
  5. To successfully SFTP I have to get the hexadecimal key equivalent to the dummy finger print , which should be updated in the Adaptive Job server
  6. Here lies the problem, when I look at the logging files (GLF file) I do not get the hexadecimal finger print , instead I get the below error

  destination_sftp: exception caught while connecting to sftp server [ourhostname]. Details: [unknown error!].


Can anyone let me know if you have faced a similar issue ?How do I resolve this ?


Thanks & Regards,

Rakesh Sudhakar
