Hi,

When configuring my Jenkins Master instance using WebSphere Deployer plugin to access the remote Webphere 8.5 instance, i have an issue making the successful connection.

Jenkins Core is running on Oracle 1.8.0 and have all the required IBM jars placed in the websphere-deployer/WEB-INF/lib folder of Jenkins.

Have followed the steps explained in https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/IBM+WebSphere+Configuration to download and install the certs on the JVM on which Jenkins is running.

Have also added the Server Certificate to DummyClientTrustFile.jks.

Remote WebSphere instance is reachable through the ping.
Have followed all the steps explained in https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/JENKINS-29841.

However i still have the issue of making a connection successfully using Test Connection option. Below is the error. Can you please be able to help us.
