Remote System Connections

Default remote system connections are not limited to z/Server connections. Theoretically all system types using the Eclipse Remote System Explorer framework (RSE) can be defined. But in practice, specific remote system connections require additional attributes to work properly.

Syntax

Element Attribute Description
remoteSystemConnection systemTypeID* The ID of the remote system type. The ID for z/Server connections is com.microfocus.awm.zos
connectionName* The unique name of the connection as seen in the Remote Systems view.
hostName* The host name of the connection.
port* The server port.
defaultUserID The default user ID that is used when a connection is being established. This can be changed in the credentials dialog box.
description The description for the remote system connection.
remoteCodePage (z/Server only) The remote code page that should be used for communication.
ceaPort (z/Server only) Port of the CEA server task.
filter (z/Server only) filterString* The filter string. Note that %userid% can be used which is resolved at run time with the ID of the connected user.
type* The filter type. Valid values are:
  • mvs
  • jes
filterName* The name of the filter as shown in the Remote Systems view.
