HCL Workload Automation, Version 9.4

Connecting to the products

Describes how to implement a connection to the HCL Workload Automation products using the API.

To connect to the products, you need to set the Connection Parameters to connect either to the HCL Workload Automation master domain manager (where there is a Connector installed) or to the IBM Workload Scheduler for z/OS connector.

If you have created your project from an example, take the following steps, depending on which engine you are connecting to:
Connecting to the HCL Workload Automation master domain manager
  1. From the Integration Workbench select your project
  2. Expand Config
  3. Edit the TWSConfig.properties file to obtain the correct parameters for your environment. The parameters are as follows:
    TWSConfig.serverName=
    TWSConfig.serverPort=
    TWSConfig.userID=
    TWSConfig.password=
    TWSConfig.useSecureConnection=
    TWSConfig.serverSecurePort=
    where the parameters are as follows:
    TWSConfig.serverName
    The network name of IP address of the system where the HCL Workload Automation master domain manager is running (where there is a Connector installed). The default is "localhost".
    TWSConfig.serverPort
    The port used by the Connector on the master domain manager. The default is 31115.
    TWSConfig.userID
    The user ID with which the plug-in must authenticate. The default is "twsuser".
    TWSConfig.password
    The password of that user ID.
    TWSConfig.useSecureConnection
    Enter "true" to use a secure connection.
    TWSConfig.serverSecurePort
    If TWSConfig.useSecureConnection is set to "true", the secure port used by the Connector on the master domain manager.
Connecting to the IBM Workload Scheduler for z/OS connector
  1. From the Integration Workbench select your project
  2. Expand Config
  3. Edit the TWSConn.properties file to obtain the correct parameters for your environment. The parameters are as follows:
    TWSConn.serverName=
    TWSConn.serverPort=
    TWSConn.userID=
    TWSConn.password=
    TWSConn.remoteServerName=
    where the parameters are as follows:
    TWSConn.serverName
    The network name of IP address of the system where the z/OS® connector is installed. The default is "localhost".
    TWSConn.serverPort
    The port used by the z/OS connector. The default is 31115.
    TWSConn.userID
    The user ID with which the plug-in must authenticate. The default is "twsuser".
    TWSConn.password
    The password of that user ID.
    TWSConn.remoteServerName
    The name of the z/OS engine that you want to connect to.

If you have created a project from scratch, create an analogous structure of connection parameters.
