HCL Workload Automation, Version 9.4

Job scheduling events format

The integration between HCL Workload Automation and Tivoli Enterprise Console (TEC) provides the means to identify and manage a set of predefined job scheduling events. These are the events that are managed using the Tivoli Enterprise Console logfile adapter installed on the scheduling workstations. These events are listed in the following table together with the values of their positional fields. These positional fields are the ones used by the FMT files to define the event structure which, once filled up with the information stored for that specific event number in the log file, is sent by the Tivoli Enterprise Console logfile adapter to the TEC event server.

Note that since Tivoli Enterprise Console handles blank (white) spaces as delimiters, if the HCL Workload Automation events include prompts (like the one generated as CarryForward prompt), the prompts might be split in different fields in the event itself.

For additional information, refer to Job scheduling events.
