Alternative access to the BS2000 operating system with PuTTY

If you use the access to the BS2000 console and BS2000 dialog integrated into the SE Manager, data transmission between the administration PC and the Server Unit and Management Unit takes place at base system level in encrypted format and is consequently secure.

Alternatively secure access to the BS2000 console, SVP console (only SU /390) and BS2000 dialog can be achieved using the SSH client PuTTY (Version 0.63 and higher) under the following conditions:

  • There is a connection to the MU.

  • A valid administrator, BS2000 administrator or operator account is specified. Authentication with password entry or installed ssh key is required.

  • The CLI command bs2Console, svpConsole or bs2Dialog with the relevant parameters is specified as the follow-up command. An operator is granted access only in accordance with his/her individual rights.

  • To avoid line breaks, for a BS2000 console the number of columns should be set to 132. For a BS2000 dialog a character set must be specified which supports the display and the shortcuts which are required in the BS2000 dialog.

Examples for the alternate BS2000 operation under PuTTY can be found in the appendix of the "Operation and Administration" manual [2]. A detailed syntax description of the CLI commands is provided in the CLI command reference, see the SE Manager‘s online help under General information -> PDF documents.
