Bryan KlimekSorry, but using the server= on the Use URL does not do what you think it does.
jdbc:eda:\\????????:8120;server=DFM_DEFAULT;
The server= parm is only used when the reporting server you are connecting to is an SSCTL server on MVS. Unless of course something has changed in the more recent releases of the product. My experience only goes up to the 5.3 level.
I too wanted to move the ReportCaster work off of the DEFAULT service. But IBI informed me that ReportCaster will only run it's jobs on the DEFAULT service. And by the way. Don't every try to delete the DEFAULT service or the DFM_DEFAULT service. These are hardcoded values in the product and cannot be changed.
I had opened a case with IBI awhile back and they agreed to take it as a new feature request to allow the option of running ReportCaster jobs on a service other than the DEFAULT service. But to my knowledge that has not made it into relases of the toolset.
