I have a setup where the Server and Client Desktop (Development) are in two different boxes and locations.
The network is setup in such a way that I am able to reach the server via IP address but Hostname doesn't resolve to the IP as the DNS is missing that entry.
When I try to launch Datastage Designer Client, I specify the IP address:port, user name, password, IP/Project name. This throws an error message of Java Exception that it could not establish a connection to the HOST Name.
1. Is there any client setting that can force the client suite to use the IP and not the HOST Name. It appears that the initial scripts executed by the Designer client are translating the IP to the host name and trying to establish a connection to that Hostname.
Here is the actual exception stack trace
Code: Select all
Caused by: javax.naming.ServiceUnavailableException: A communication failure occurred while attempting to obtain an initial context with the provider URL: "iiop://ServerName:2809". Make sure that any bootstrap address information in the URL is correct and that the target name server is running. A bootstrap address with no port specification defaults to port 2809. Possible causes other than an incorrect bootstrap address or unavailable name server include the network environment and workstation network configuration.
