To retrieve files from an IBM Seedlist system, create a new fetch task by following these steps. The connector runs each fetch task automatically, based on the schedule that is configured in the configuration file.
To create a new Fetch Task
In the [FetchTasks]
section of the configuration file, specify the number of fetch tasks using the Number
parameter. If you are configuring the first fetch task, type Number=1
. If one or more fetch tasks have already been configured, increase the value of the Number
parameter by one (1). Below the Number
parameter, specify the names of the fetch tasks, starting from zero (0). For example:
[FetchTasks] Number=1 0=MyTask
Below the [FetchTasks]
section, create a new TaskName section. The name of the section must match the name of the new fetch task. For example:
[FetchTasks] Number=1 0=MyTask [MyTask]
In the new section, set the following parameters:
Host
|
The host name or IP address of the computer that hosts the IBM Seedlist system. |
Port
|
The port on which the connector should connect to the IBM Seedlist system. |
UriBase
|
(Optional) The base URI to use to query the Seedlist API. The default is /seedlist/myserver . The value of this parameter is used with the value of the Host and Port parameters to form the URL of each query. |
UserName
|
The user name to use to retrieve information from the IBM Seedlist repository. |
Password
|
The password to use to retrieve information from IBM Seedlist. Micro Focus recommends that you encrypt the password before entering it into the configuration file. For information about how to encrypt passwords, see Encrypt Passwords. |
SSLConfig
|
(Optional) The name of a section in the connector's configuration file that contains SSL settings to use for communicating with the IBM Seedlist repository. Alternatively, you can set the SSL parameters in the task section. |
For example:
Host=localhost Port=10035 UserName=USER Password=PASSWORD
For a complete list of parameters that you can use to configure the connector, refer to the IBM Seedlist Connector Reference.
