Q: Is there a way how to disable the ABAP agent in case of any OS maintenance?
A: Yes.
To deactivate ABAP agent, please follow these steps - all are in the documentation:
- Deactivate ABAP agent integration
- Stop running HTTP SDK instances - it is documented here, the only difference is that you click to "Stop all" button
- Stop all machine agents
To activate it back, follow these steps in reverse order, don't forget to enable HTTP listener for machine agents.
