Configure in EM Console (GUI) to use specific ssh config file

Baris KarabacakMay 30 2025

Hello together,

we are facing many problems in EM Console because of the PCA colleague die enhaced the security using jumphosts to the clients.

I opened up a SR. Unfortunately it was written "The error is expected.
The current design is not including the possibility of execution command like: "ssh -J jumphost.domain host.domain".
It also doesn't work using a config file because the agent works as a java client, not as ssh."

The next comment from the servicedesk was to create an enhancement.

But until now we cant't use several menu points like “add corrective action”, "resynchronisation", changing metrics, refresh update.

I think these points are also affected because of jumphosts which are not configureable in named credentials.

What did we do until now?

the pca colleagues are automatically registering the shortname of the jumphost. We are extracting it from the repo db and writingt it down to a ssh config file. Therefore we can operate via cli but still missing the above mentioned features like add corrective action.

Does anybody can help us with a solution? Maybe manipulating a java config file where I'm not familiar with Java.

Our ssh config file in the user/.ssh/config looks like this:

Host *
User emcc
IdentityFile /home/emcc/.ssh/id_rsa
Include /oracle/appshare/users/ssh_config

Important is to know how Java connects to Port 3872, so that maybe a config file can written with details.
Then Java should know which client uses which jumphost to use.

Is it possible to adjust the java configs from EMCC so that a ssh connection with jumphost gets possible?

Thank you in advance.

B.C.K
