Is the Jenkins build engine type available from JazzHub?

I'm trying to set up Jenkins on localhost to connect to JazzHub via a build engine. The RTC documentation says to create a build engine with Hudson/Jenkins Build Engine Type. This engine type does not appear for my JazzHub connection.
Is such a Jenkins build engine type available from JazzHub?

 What client are you connecting from? also what version? I see the option for Hudson/Jenkins from my Eclipse shell with RTC 4.0.4.

JazzHub new buildengine

Ah, I'm on 3.0.3.
However, if I upgrade to 4.0.x, I suspect my connection to a 3.0.x server will break.
Do you know if 4.0.x is back compatible to 3.0.x?

 That is the reason, Hudson/Jenkins is a 4.x feature.


 But for now, you need to keep your 3.x client for your 3.x connections, as the tools are backwards tolerant 3.x client to 4.x server but not compatible of 4.x clients to 3.x servers. If you want to play around I would try installing a recent 4.x client in parallel to test this out.

Thanks Sean,
I've used another install of Eclipse with RTC 4.0.5 client and that works.
