Jump Server

This tutorial covers the following topic:

• Defining a jump server to connect to a remote host.

Your environment might require a connection through a jump server to access the desired log files on your target host. In Retrospective, you configure this jump server in just a few steps:

Step 1

Open the Host Manager tab and select a host from the list.

Step 2

Switch to advanced settings.

Step 3

Use the “Jump server” dropdown to select a jump server for your host. Any host defined in the host list is available to be selected as jump server, excluding the current host of course.

Once you have selected a jump server, Retrospective displays the route to this host right next to the drop down.

Step 4

Test/save your configuration.

Step 5

Once you have saved the configuration, a green arrow on the host icon indicates that this host is accessed through a jump server.
