The HCL Workload Automation tutorial utility shows you how to populate and use a stand-alone test environment.

About this task

HCL Workload Automation tutorial utility guides you through a set of steps to populate and use a stand-alone test environment. The tutorial utility is intended for first-time users of HCL Workload Automation who want an overview of the features and capabilities of the product in a real environment. The tutorial utility includes a sample database with predefined scheduling objects and a set of scenarios that use these objects.

The sampledbsetup.sh or the SAMPLEDBSETUP.CMD script (depending on whether you are in a UNIX or Windows environment) populates your HCL Workload Automation with a set of scheduling objects. The scenario scripts use these objects in basic scheduling activities. Each scenario is self-contained and can be run in any order, with the exception of the first scenario which is a prerequisite to all others.

The HCL Workload Automation tutorial utility runs only on a master domain manager. It does not affect any other workstation defined in your HCL Workload Automation environment. Each scenario is launched as a separate script file which uses the conman and composer command interfaces. The syntax and usage of each command used in the scenarios is explained in detail in the HCL Workload Automation: User's Guide and Reference. Before you begin using the utility, read an overview of HCL Workload Automation concepts and tasks in HCL Workload Automation: Overview.
