File Manager® plug-in for Eclipse is available for installation via the P2 Eclipse provisioning platform.
Under CICS Explorer™, follow the steps below:
- Click Help > Install New Software...
- Click Add
- Specify the File Manager® plug-in location in the Location field. This
will be either a specific update site URL (e.g. http://example.com/updatesite/,
a local mirror of the update site (e.g. file:/C:/updatesite/), or an archive
file (e.g. jar:file:/C:/updatesite.zip!/).
- Click OK
- Select the appropriate features for your installation environment
- Click Next to review the installation details
- Click Next and review the license agreement(s)
- If you accept the license agreements, select I accept the terms of the license agreement
- Click Finish and wait for the IBM File Manager® plug-in to be installed. If you see a warning about unsigned content, click OK
- Once the installation is complete, a prompt to restart CICS Explorer™ will appear; click Restart Now to restart your Eclipse environment (e.g. CICS Explorer) and complete the installation.
Any P2 platform errors that are reported, such as "plug-in dependency not resolved", must be resolved.

Once installed successfully, the File Manager® plug-in's Systems Information view, which is the main view of the File Manager® plug-in, can be shown:
- (optional) Click Window > Open Perspective > Resource
- Click Window > Show View > Other
- Expand File Manager
- Click Systems Information
- Click OK
Note that you can drag the view to a more desirable location: it is recommended to drag the view to the top left corner of the window so that it is taller than it is wide.
