How to create HCL Workload Automation default situations

An easy assisted creation of the default situations in a new Tivoli Workload Scheduler view or a view of your choice in the Tivoli Enterprise Portal console.

1. Run the script to create the default situations.

   For UNIX operating systems

   <TWA_home>/TWS/ITM/ITMCreateSituations.sh

   For Windows operating systems

   <TWA_home>\TWS\ITM\ITMCreateSituations.cmd

   where ,<TWA_home> is the installation directory of HCL Workload Automation.
2. Copy this file and the baseNameSituation.xml file to the Tivoli Enterprise Monitoring Server and run the script using the following syntax:

   For UNIX operating systems

   ITMCreateSituations.sh -ITMUser <user> -ITNPassword <password> 
   -host <host> -ITMHome <ITM_Home> [-TWSHome <TWA_home>]

   For Windows operating systems

   ITMCreateSituations.cmd -ITMUser <user> -ITNPassword <password> 
   -host <host> -ITMHome <ITM_Home> [-TWSHome <TWA_home>]

   where:

   <user>

   Specifies the user ID of the IBM Tivoli Monitoring user.

   <password>

   Specifies the password of the IBM Tivoli Monitoring user.

   <host>

   Specifies the hostname of the Tivoli Enterprise Monitoring Server you log on to.

   <ITM_Home>

   Specifies the Candle home directory of the Tivoli Enterprise Monitoring Server.

   <TWS_Home>

   Specifies the home directory of HCL Workload Automation. Use this option only if HCL Workload Automation is also installed on the same workstation where Tivoli Enterprise Portal is installed.

   For example, to create default situations in a Windows operating system, without a severity, run the following command:

   ITMCreateSituations.cmd -ITMUser root -ITMPassword password 
   -host nc050167 -ITMHome C:\IBM\ITM -TWSHome nc005093

3. You can associate these situations and the severity to a view of the Tivoli Enterprise Portal, by using the following executable file:

   For UNIX operating systems

   <TWA_home>/TWS/ITM/ITMsetSeverity.sh

   For Windows operating systems

   <TWA_home>\TWS\ITM\ITMsetSeverity.cmdwhere <TWA_home> is the installation directory of HCL Workload Automation

   The script configures the associations of the Tivoli Enterprise Portal console to create and display the HCL Workload Automation situations.
4. Copy this file to the Tivoli Enterprise Monitoring Server and run the executable file using the following syntax:

   For UNIX operating systems

   ITMsetSeverity.sh -TEPUser <user> -TEPPassword <password> 
   -TEPhost <host> -TEPHome <TEP_Home> {[-TWSHost <TWS_Host> 
   -TWSOSType <Linux|Unix|Windows>]|[-navigator <navigator_item> 
   [-view <Physical|Logical>]]}

   For Windows operating systems

   ITMsetSeverity.cmd -TEPUser <user> -TEPPassword <password> 
   -TEPhost <host> -TEPHome <TEP_Home> {[-TWSHost <TWS_Host> 
   -TWSOSType <Linux|Unix|Windows>]|[-navigator <navigator_item> 
   [-view <Physical|Logical>]]}

   where:

   <user>

   Specifies the user ID of the Tivoli Enterprise Portal user.

   <password>

   Specifies the password of the Tivoli Enterprise Portal user.

   <host>

   Specifies the hostname of the Tivoli Enterprise Portal you log on to.

   <TEP_Home>

   Specifies the Candle home directory of the Tivoli Enterprise Portal server.

   <TWS_Host>

   Specifies the host name of the workstation where Tivoli Enterprise Portal is configured. This parameter is case sensitive.

   <TWOSType>

   Specifies the type of operating system where the agent is installed. These values are case sensitive:

   • Linux
   • Unix
   • Windows

   <navigator_item>

   Specifies the fully qualified name of the navigator item where to associate situations, or to assign the list of managed systems. This path is case sensitive.

   -view

   The name of the navigator view which the navigator item belongs to. The default value is Physical.

   For example, to associate the severity to each situation in a Windows operating system, you can run one of the following commands:

   ITMsetSeverity.cmd -TEPUser sysadmin -TEPPassword password 
   -TEPhost nc050167 -TEPHome C:\IBM\ITM -TWSHost nc004002 
   -TWSOSType Linux

   To associate the severity for each situation with the navigator item to which to associate the situation and the name of the navigator view that the navigator item belongs to, run the command as follows:

   TMsetSeverity.cmd -TEPUser sysadmin -TEPPassword password 
   -TEPhost nc050167 -TEPHome C:\IBM\ITM -navigator 
   “Enterprise/Windows Systems/NC005093/Tivoli Workload Scheduler
   /Application Status -QS:nc005093:APP” -view Logical

5. When you log on to the Tivoli Enterprise Portal for the first time, the following HCL Workload Automation associated situations are displayed:
   
6. After the creation of the HCL Workload Automation situations, you can view the events associated to each situation in the Tivoli Enterprise Portal desktop:
