Prerequisites to run branch jobs

To run the generic branch job, ensure that the following system prerequisites are met.

On Windows operating systems:

• Because the Windows operating systems cannot natively interpret UNIX shell scripts, you must install a shell interpreter to use the TWA_home\TWS\bin\branch.sh shell script on the Windows master domain manager.
• The directory C:\cygwin\bin must point to the bin subdirectory of your Cygwin installation directory. If you have installed Cygwin in a directory other than the default, use the corresponding path.

On UNIX operating systems, only bash or korn shells are supported.

If your UNIX workstation uses a bourne shell, open the branch.sh file located in TWA_home/TWS/bin on the master domain manager and change #!/bin/sh to point to a bash (#!/bin/bash) or korn shell (#!/bin/ksh).
