HCL Workload Automation, Version 9.4

Scenario: Connection between dynamic agents and the master domain manager or dynamic domain manager

The default certificates provided during the HCL Workload Automation installation process, ensure the secure connection between the following components:
Master domain manager and dynamic domain manager or backup dynamic domain manager:

The connection to the broker server installed with the dynamic domain manager requires the use of certificates from a certificate authority to provide authentication. In addition, the master domain managers and the backup master domain managers that communicate with the dynamic domain manager or its backup must be defined on the related broker server to ensure role-based authorization.

The dynamic domain manager communicates with any of the following components:
  • Master domain manager
  • Backup master domain manager (if any)
  • Backup dynamic domain manager (if any)
Master domain manager or dynamic domain manager and dynamic agents:
The dynamic agent communicates with any of the following components:
  • Master domain manager
  • Backup master domain manager (if any)
  • Dynamic domain manager (if any)
  • Backup dynamic domain manager (if any)
Communication between dynamic agents and a master domain manager, or a dynamic domain manager to which they are registered, is by default in https. This communication uses the product default certificates.
ResourceCLI command line and the Broker Server installed on the master domain manager
You can enable the communication between the ResourceCLI command line installed on the dynamic domain manager and the Broker Server installed on the master domain manager by using the default certificates or by using your own certificates. See Customizing the SSL connection between a master domain manager and the resource command line.
