To Access File Manager specific RSE connection options, the following steps can be used:
The File Manager RSE Integration uses an environment variable defined in the RSE Server configuration, "PD_SERVER_PORT". After a connection to the selected system is made, this value will be loaded from the RSE server.
The server value can be overridden if required, by:
This would be required if the RSE server configuration was missing the "PD_SERVER_PORT" value or a value different to the RSE server specified value was required. For example, to connect to a different ADFzCC Server instance.
The MFA property is 0 by default which indicates the property has not been set. The MFA property should be set to YES if MFA is enabled for the user or NO if MFA is not enabled.
Whenever a connection is made to the RSE system, this property is set automatically after checking if the user logging in to the RSE System is configured to use Multi-Factor Authentication(MFA) or not.
The user can also set the MFA property to YES if the command which checks the MFA user fails for any reason, by clicking Enable MFA button on the dialog box displayed at the time of failure.
The MFA Property can also be set manually by right-clicking on the RSE connection and choosing Properties. Here the MFA Property can be set to YES/NO/0.
The above MFA property is checked by the ADFzCC connection whenever a File Manager based node like IMS, DB2, CICS, etc. is expanded.
If the MFA Property is set to YES, the user is again prompted to enter the password once.
