How to Start SAP CPS Redwood RFC Server ?

The SAP CPS RFC server allows ABAP stacks to connect to SAP CPS and interact with the scheduler. The SAP CPS interfaces with the SAP Applications API. At the time of this writing, the following SAP components have been optimized for SAP CPS RFC server.

You start the RFC server by setting the process server parameter SAP_EnableRfcServer to true on the process server that belongs to the SAP System which will connect to the RFC server. You can connect to multiple SAP CPS process servers to a single SAP instance and you can enable an RFC server for each of them, however, when this is the case you should set the process server parameter SAP_API_DefaultScheduler for each, it should be set to false on all SAP process servers except one, which is the default scheduler for the SAP Applications API of that SAP instance. The value of this scheduler parameter is set to true by default.
