On the Object Selection page of the Web Services wizard you can access a dialog to set the authentication and runtime configuration values for the iSeries programs and procedures called from your Web application.
A runtime configuration file with all your settings is generated and placed in the source folder of the service project.
The generated Java bean, by default, looks for the runtime configuration file in the class path.
If the Web service is created from a file that has an iSeries connection (for example, a file chosen from the Remote System Explorer) then the fields under both wizard pages are pre-filled with the connection information.
Additional considerations
In addition to defining authentication and runtime values, you should ensure that host servers are running on your iSeries host. The servers are *SRVMAP, *CENTRAL, *RMTCMD, and *SIGNON. You start a host server with the STRHOSTSVR command. For example, enter STRHOSTSVR *RMTCMD to start the *RMTCMD server. To start all host servers, use the command STRHOSTSVR *ALL.
To test iSeries Web services in the WebSphere Test Environment, you need a TCP/IP connection to your iSeries host, and the user profile QUSER must be enabled.
