You can specify the address of a remote build server by setting the destHost build descriptor option.
The build script for iSeries® is a REXX program named FDAPREP and is described in the IBM® Rational® Business Developer EGL Server Guide for IBM i, which is available in the help system.
When generating COBOL for a z/OS environment, you can use build scripts to start the z/OS COBOL compiler and the z/OS linker. If a generated program is targeted for a CICS® environment, you can use a build script that calls the CICS translator as well. If the generated program contains SQL, the build script starts the DB2® preprocessor and starts a DB2 database bind.
The z/OS build scripts that allow you to perform all these tasks are shipped with the z/OS build component and are installed in the z/OS build server's pseudo-JCL PROCLIB library.
You need to customize these scripts for your working environment. For details, see Modifying EGL build scripts for z/OS.
To prepare Java code for execution, EGL puts the javac (Java compiler) command and its parameters in the build plan. The build plan then sends the javac command to the build server, along with the input required by the command.
