HCL Workload Automation, Version 9.4

Exporting settings repository to a file

You can export the Dynamic Workload Console settings repository from an existing stand-alone Dynamic Workload Console instance to create a file, in XML format, that can be imported into a High Availability configuration.

About this task

If you are setting up a High Availability configuration among existing nodes, you must first export the settings repository from the stand-alone instance and subsequently import the previously exported data after the High Availability configuration is set up.
Note: If you are joining the server to an existing High Availability configuration, the other nodes must not contain custom data, that is, each node must be a clean installation. When you import the settings repository file from the stand-alone instance it is replicated across all other nodes.
To export the settings from a Dynamic Workload Console, perform the following procedure.

Procedure

  1. Log in to the Dynamic Workload Console using TWSWEBUIAdministrator credentials.
  2. From the navigation toolbar, click System Configuration > Manage Settings.
  3. In the Manage Settings page, click Export settings to save the console settings to an XML file in a directory of your choice.
  4. Create a new High Availability configuration using the stand-alone server, or join it to an existing configuration.
  5. Import the previously exported data to any node in the High Availability configuration by doing as follows:

    In the Manage Settings page, click Import settings and browse to the XML file containing the data you want to import.

Results

Create a new High Availability configuration using the stand-alone Dynamic Workload Console, or join it to an existing configuration. After the High Availability configuration is configured, you can import the data file to one of the nodes.
