#!/bin/sh

export SECUDIR="/usr/sap/saprouter"

export SNC_LIB="/usr/sap/saprouter/libsapcrypto.so"

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/usr/sap/saprouter"

export LIBPATH="/usr/sap/saprouter"

cd /usr/sap/saprouter

./saprouter -r -K "p:CN=saprouter,OU=0000123456,OU=SAProuter,O=SAP,C=DE"

4.    Save and execute the below command to provide permission for the .service and .sh files.
