HCL Workload Automation interfaces
The HCL Workload Automation has user interfaces from which you can manage your production environment.

You can manage your production environment from the following
user interfaces:

- The master domain manager command lines are installed automatically when you install the master domain manager. This command lines interface are run only from the workstation serving as the master domain manager. From the command lines, you can administer the master specific binaries and options. A backup master domain manager command lines also exist on the master domain manager configured as backup instance.
- Dynamic Workload Console
- The web-based interface for creating, modifying, monitoring, controlling, and deleting HCL Workload Automation objects. You can interface with the console from any system in the network where a supported web browser is installed. When you install a Dynamic Workload Console also the z/OS® Connector is installed, which is a component that connects IBM Workload Scheduler for z/OS and the Dynamic Workload Console. For more information, see IBM Workload Scheduler for z/OS: Planning and Installation Guide.

following:
- Composer
- Optman
- Planman showinfo and unlock (the other planman commands must be run locally on the master domain manager)
