HCL Workload Automation, Version 9.4

Configuring the dynamic workload broker server on the master domain manager and dynamic domain manager

About this task

You can perform these configuration tasks after completing the installation of your master domain manager, dynamic domain manager, and dynamic agents, and any time that you want to change or tune specific parameters in your environment.

The configuration parameters for the dynamic workload broker server are defined by default at installation time. You modify a subset of these parameters using the files that are created when you install dynamic workload broker. The following files are created in the path:

TWA_home/TDWB/config
ResourceAdvisorConfig.properties
Contains configuration information about the Resource Advisor. For more information, see ResourceAdvisorConfig.properties file.
JobDispatcherConfig.properties
Contains configuration information about the Job Dispatcher. For more information, see JobDispatcherConfig.properties file.
BrokerWorkstation.properties
Contains configuration information about the broker server. BrokerWorkstation.properties file
CLIConfig.properties
Contains configuration information for the dynamic workload broker command line. This file is described in HCL Workload Automation: Scheduling Workload Dynamically.
audit.properties
Contains options for configuring the auditing of events. This file is documented in the HCL Workload Automation: Troubleshooting Guide.
You can modify a subset of the parameters in these files to change the following settings:
  • Heartbeat signal from the agents.
  • Time interval for job allocation to resources
  • Time interval for notifications on resources
  • Polling time when checking the status of remote engine workstations
  • Maximum number of results when allocating jobs to global resources
  • Encryption of any passwords sent in the JSDL definitions
  • Time interval for retrying the operation after a Job Dispatcher failure
  • Time interval for retrying the operation after a client notification failure
  • Archive settings for job data
  • Job history settings
  • Command line properties (see HCL Workload Automation: Scheduling Workload Dynamically)

The editable parameters are listed in the following sections. If you edit any parameters that are not listed, the product might not work. After modifying the files, you must stop and restart the IBM® WebSphere® server.
