system-sap-check()

This function checks whether the SAP system a is connected by calling "RFC_PING".

Parameters

Parameter	Description
a	The alias of the SAP system to be checked (see configuration file ./etc/sap.xml).
b	(optional) Mode. Allowed values: "boolean", "text". Default: "boolean". "boolean" - The result is "true" if the check is successful, otherwise "false", but the function does not terminate with an error, even if the alias does not exist. "text" - Like "boolean", but if the check is unsuccessful, an error text (after the prefix "ERROR:") is output instead. Note: This text always returns "false" if evaluated as a Boolean.
