Hi all,
Environment Variables are widely used in SAP Systems to partially configure an application server or components of it.
You may also be asked by a developer to set an environment variable to turn off/on functionality within a process in order to activate alternative code paths for error analysis.
In this context SAP Note 31559 has been revised and does cover now all available methods and scope description to set/change environment variables on a Windows box running an SAP application server.
kind regards
Peter
PS: feedback is highly appreciated (missing stuff, hard to understand sections...)
