iSeries connections run fine from Desktop, but not from Alteryx Server

Nonsensely
7 - Meteor

I have several workflows I am trying to automate, but when I load them in the Server I'm receiving Firewall errors when connecting to our cloud hosted iSeries. Our Alteryx Server is running from an AWS server and I believe the problem lies somewhere with our security. Our networking admins suggest creating iSeries jobs to output the data to a folder somewhere on our network, but that defeats the point of having a workflow do the work. And creating an iSeries program to pull from Oracle dbs and SQL server and folders would be a pure nightmare. All my other connections work fine, its just the iSeries/DB2 connections that don't want to work once uploaded to Alteryx Server.

 

Any suggestions? Has anyone found a workaround for this?
