Connecting to Remote Servers
When connecting to the System Management Portal or Documentation choices on the Remote System
Access menu, you can bookmark the generated URIs and return to these pages on your Web server as
long as the remote instance is running.
Important:
If you are using the Internet Explorer Web browser you may need to adjust the Local
intranet security settings to properly connect to remote servers.
8.1 Define a Remote Server Connection
To use the Caché Cube utilities or other Caché applications on a remote server, the server must be on
the connection list in the Caché Server Manager. This is a list of remote servers you have previously
defined to which you can quickly connect. A remote server is defined with an IP address for a unique
server and a TCP port, which is an instance of Caché on that server.
Important:
The Caché SuperServer must be running on the remote machine and its port must be
open on your firewall to use the Caché Cube utilities on that system.
For security reasons, username and password are not stored with the remote connection
information.
To define the remote server:
1. From the Caché Cube menu, point to Preferred Server, and click Add/Edit.
2. Click Add to open the Add Connection dialog box.
3. Fill in the fields as described in the following table and click OK. Each field is required unless
otherwise indicated.
