HCL Workload Automation, Version 9.4

The master domain manager

The HCL Workload Automation master domain manager is supported on the Cluster Virtual Server, but has two important limitations:
  • The master domain manager runs the Final job stream which creates a new plan for the current production day. This process cannot be interrupted. An interruption might cause malfunctions and scheduling service interruptions. Only manual steps can be used to recover from such malfunctions or service interruptions. Because failover of the cluster group that contains the HCL Workload Automation resource stops the agent on the current node and starts it on a different node, if failover happens when the Final job stream runs, could be destructive.
  • The HCL Workload Automation command-line utilities (conman, composer, and so on) are unaware of the cluster and if they are interrupted (through a failover of the cluster group that contains the HCL Workload Automation resource) they might corrupt some vital HCL Workload Automation information.
