Step 4: Finish creating your Z and I Emulator for Web portlet.

Now that you have configured your Z and I Emulator for Web session to use Web Express Logon and have recorded your login macro, you are ready to finish creating your portlet file using the Deployment Wizard. To finish creating the file, take the following steps:
  1. On the Host Sessions window, click Next to open the Additional Options window (Additional Options window). Make any changes that you desire and click Next.

  2. On the File Name and Output Format window (File Name and Output Format window), enter the page title and file name, choose the directory where you want to save your portlet file, and check the Output Portlet box. You should save your portlet to the Z and I Emulator for Web server in a directory known to your Web server; usually, this directory is your Z and I Emulator for Web server's publish directory. Click the Portlet Details button when you are finished.

  3. On the Portlet Details window (Portlet Details), select Credential Vault in the left tree view to configure your portlet and allow Z and I Emulator for Web to retrieve the user credentials from the Portal Credential Vault. Once you enable Z and I Emulator for Web to use the Portal Server's Credential Vault, enter information for the following two fields:
    • Portal Vault Slot ID: Specifies a string that is prepended to the Portal Credential Vault Slot name retrieved by the Z and I Emulator for Web portlet. The Portal Vault Slot name is made up of the slot ID, the host name, and the application name, which you specify when you record the Web Express Logon macro. The default value is HATS.
    • Portal Vault Slot Type: Identifies the Portal Credential Vault Slot Type retrieved by the Z and I Emulator for Web portlet. The default is , which is recommended.

      Any information that you provide about the Portal Server Credential Vault is only used if you have left the Credential Mapper Server Address field in the Express Logon window of session properties blank.
      Click OK.

      Z and I Emulator for Web provides a separate portlet for manipulating user IDs and passwords stored in administrative slots. The WAR file (PasswordEditor.war) is stored in the portal sub-directory of Z and I Emulator for Web published directory. Step 5: Using a custom portlet to manage user credentials describes the usage of the utility. Z and I Emulator for Web does not provide any tools for manipulating other types of valut slots (system and shared).

  4. On the File Name and Output Format window (File Name and Output Format window), enter the ZIE Server URL so the Portal Server will be able to locate the Z and I Emulator for Web Server. The URL that you specify here must identify the Z and I Emulator for Web publish directory. An example ZIE Server URL is http://server_name.mycompany.com/zieweb, where server_name is the name of the server where Z and I Emulator for Web is installed. You are not required to enter a value for this field since it can be modified by a Portal Server administrator once the portlet has been installed. This field is a configuration parameter of the generated portlet and is named hodCodeBase.
  5. Click Create File(s) to finish creating your portlet file.
