After you create a connection to an IBM® z/OS® system,
set up filters to explore the hierarchical file system (HFS) on z/OS UNIX System
Services.
To set up filters to explore a z/OS UNIX system,
complete the following steps:
- Change to the Remote System Explorer RSE perspective.
- In the Remote Systems view, double-click
the z/OS UNIX Files node to expand it.
The z/OS UNIX Files subsystem has two predefined
filters: My Home and Root.
- To define a new filter, right-click the z/OS
UNIX Files node, and select from the menu to open
the New Filter wizard. To change the location that a filter points
to, right-click the filter, and select Properties from
the menu. Switch to the Filter Strings page,
and select filter string.
- To configure the filter to point to a specific directory:
- From the Folder list, select the path.
- In the Folder field, type the path
from the root.
- Click Browse to browse for your home
directory on the remote system.
You can use file extensions to specify the file types to narrow
down the filter further.
Tip: The first time that you
attempt to access a folder on the remote system, you are prompted
for your user ID and password.
- Save your changes and close the dialog box.
