Configuring an admission profile for an openFT instance as of V11.0

To allow remote administration, an admission profile with the function "Remote Administration" (REMOTE-ADMINISTRATION) must be set up on the instance to be administered. The following cases must be distinguished:

• An admission profile with the permission FT (FT access for reading and modification) or FTOP (FT access for reading) must belong to the FT administrator.

• An admission profile with the permission FTAC (FTAC access for reading and modification) must belong to the FTAC administrator.

• An admission profile with the permission FT+FTAC (FT and FTAC access for reading and modification) can only be set up if the FT administrator is also an FTAC administrator. If this is not the case, two profiles must be created (for FT and for FTAC). The instance must then also be configured twice in the configuration file of the remote administration server, once for FT remote administration and once for FTAC remote administration.

Example

The FT administrator enters the following command for an admission profile, for instance:

• Unix or Windows system:

  ftcrep profile-name transfer-admission -ff=a

  Possible alternative using the openFT Explorer: Open the Admission Profile dialog box, for instance using File - New - Admission Profile, and then in the Options tab, activate the option Remote Administration via Remote Administration Server.

• BS2000 system:

  CREATE-FT-PROFILE NAME=profile-name -
                ,TRANSFER-ADMISSION=transfer admission -
                ,FT-FUNCTION=*REMOTE-ADMINISTRATION
  

• z/OS:

  FTCREPRF NAME=profile-name -
       ,TRANSFER-ADMISSION=transfer admission -
       ,FT-FUNCTION=*REMOTE-ADMINISTRATION
  

If you also wish to ensure that this profile can only be used by a particular remote administration server, specify this using -pn=server (Unix and Windows system) or PARTNER=server (BS2000 system and z/OS).
