2. Why is the newer version of STAF not supported by RSMT?

STAF 3.0 has a different interface than STAF 2.6.x. Though a migration path is available, RSMT has not yet been tested in STAF 3.0.

3. Why I am not able to add a remote machine in RSMT, even though STAF is installed?

There are many reasons for this, such as the following:
  • You have not started STAF Service on remote machine. To start STAF service on your machine, issue the following command:
    • Windows: Go to Start -> start STAF
    • UNIX: Go to /usr/local/staf/bin and execute "STAFProc &"
  • The trust level of the STAF is not correct. RSMT requires Trust Level 5 to be set in the STAF.cfg file. Please make the following change in this file and restart the STAF service.

4. If installion of RSMT fails, what should I do?

Ensure that you have the required hardware on your machine. Ensure that STAF is installed on your machine.

RSMT is bundled with Eclipse and is currently not provided or supported as a separate plug-in.
