Issue/Introduction

Can I specify an IP address in the ETD IZSOURCE DOMAIN parm?

 

Environment

Release:
Component: ALCMST

Resolution

Put the IP address in single quotes and it will work. If it is not in quotes, the ETD compile will fail with a unbalanced bracket.

IZSOURCE(SCHEME(FTP) DOMAIN('##.##.##.###') PATH(/ALCHEMIST)
         USERID(ANONYMOUS) TYPE(B) )

A DNS name does not need to be in quotes.

IZSOURCE(SCHEME(FTP) DOMAIN(TESTWEBSERVER) PATH(/ALCHEMIST)
         USERID(ANONYMOUS) TYPE(B) )

This Frequently Asked Question applies to all supported releases of ESP Alchemist beginning with 5.1.
