HCL Workload Automation, Version 9.4

Customizing HCL Workload Automation to run Oracle E-Business Suite jobs

You can customize HCL Workload Automation to run Oracle E-Business Suite jobs by editing the OracleEBusinessJobExecutor.properties file.

The OracleEBusinessJobExecutor.properties file is a text file, which is located in the directory:
agent_install_dir/TWA/TWS/JavaExt/cfg

Where, agent_install_dir is the path where you installed the HCL Workload Automation dynamic agent or the IBM Workload Scheduler for z/OS agent.

The properties file assigns default values to the Oracle E-Business Suite job properties. You can override the values set by the installation at a later time.

The properties file is automatically generated either when you perform a "Test Connection" from the Dynamic Workload Console in the job definition panels, or when you submit the job to run the first time. Once the file has been created, you can customize it. This is especially useful when you need to schedule several jobs of the same type. You can specify the values in the properties file and avoid having to provide information such as credentials and other information, for each job. You can override the values in the properties files by defining different values at job definition time.

You can define the properties contained in the .properties file also at job definition time. In this case, HCL Workload Automation uses the values that you specify at job definition time for running the job.
